About the Next Day Delivery - Dreams Workshop Braybrook Traditional Spring Memory Mattress
Last checked
The Dreams Workshop Braybrook is a traditional open-spring mattress with a memory-foam comfort layer, a soft knitted cover and tufting to hold the upholstery in place. This is a budget hybrid, not pocket-sprung. Its medium feel, 3 out of 5, puts it in the broad middle of the firmness scale, but the support core matters more than the label: open springs move as a connected unit, so they tend to feel bouncier and less individually responsive than pocket springs under hips, shoulders and two sleepers of different weights. Pairing that spring unit with memory foam is fair for the price, because the foam adds some body-contouring over the top rather than relying only on fibre padding, but it does not put the Braybrook in the same support class as the £400-plus pocket-sprung hybrids that isolate movement and pressure more precisely. The tufted finish is also telling: it helps keep fillings from shifting and gives the surface a more traditional, slightly dimpled feel, while the knitted cover softens the first contact rather than changing the underlying spring behaviour. For a low-cost mattress, the spec is sensible and familiar; the conservative part is the spring system, while the more comfort-led feature is the memory-foam layer sitting above it.
Best matched to value-led households, the Braybrook suits guest rooms, children’s beds and adults who want a cushioned but still supportive medium mattress without moving into pocket-sprung pricing. Spare-room value is the obvious draw. Praise repeatedly centres on comfort for the money, with several buyers using it for occasional rooms or younger family members and still finding it comfortable enough for adult use; the support also gets favourable mentions from a side sleeper and from someone whose partner changes position through the night. The knitted cover and foam layer line up with that feedback, giving a softer surface than a basic open-coil mattress, although the connected spring unit means couples should expect more bounce and shared movement than from an individually pocketed build. The manufacturer’s all-round positioning needs a caveat: low-score feedback clusters around comfort disappointment, with the mattress feeling too firm for one shoulder-sensitive sleeper and another describing a lumpy feel, so the medium label does not guarantee a forgiving surface for everyone. Average-weight back sleepers and occasional-use rooms are the safest fit; side sleepers needing pronounced shoulder relief, or couples wanting calmer motion isolation, are better aimed at a pocket-sprung mattress or a deeper memory-foam hybrid in the next price tier.

Brought for my six year old. however, as us parents do, I have had on occasions had to sleep in his bed as he makes claim to mine. I was very surprised at just how comfy this mattress is. Fantastic value for money, and I would highly recommend it.
Great mattress, great service and delivered exactly as planned - all good.
Very comfortable mattress with a good amount of support.
We bought 2 of these after purposely looking for something on the more budget-friendly end of the scale and I was very surprised with their great quality and comfort. Even though they were purchased for a guest room I would happily use this as our nightly matress
Affordable but comfortable mattress, exactly what we was looking for the kids.
high quality, probably the most comfy mattress have ever had, it's super firm but comfy at the same time, amazing sleeps
Shopped around trying many mattresses for a month at a time until i finally found it with dreams. Thank you for helping me get a great nights sleep.
Notas supportive as I imagined. This mattress is still quite firm and doesnt contour to your body very well
Decent mattress for price. Thought would yeild to body more after few weeks but still firm.
Bought this for my daughter's new bed. She loves it, although it would be too soft for me!
Very comfortable a little bit on the soft side but still a very good mattress
