About the Silentnight SleepResponse™ Support 1400 Pocket Sprung Mattress
Last checked
Anyone considering the Silentnight SleepResponse™ Support 1400 is looking at a firm pocket-sprung mattress with a comfort layer, not a deep-sinking foam bed. The build centres on 1,400 Mirapocket® springs, with zoned support intended to hold the body more accurately than a basic open-coil mattress and reduce the broad hammock effect that cheaper spring units can develop. The honest headline is support, not plushness. A 1,400-count zoned pocket unit is a respectable mainstream specification; it is more considered than entry-level sprung mattresses, but without a stated memory-foam depth it sits below the more elaborate £700+ pocket-sprung tier where thicker comfort stacks and secondary spring layers become common. The pillow top and memory foam should soften the first contact, especially around shoulders and hips, yet the repeated firmness feedback suggests the comfort layer is relatively restrained rather than enveloping. Cover treatment is the unusual flourish here. The aloe vera-infused finish sounds more premium than most mid-market covers, although its practical value is mainly as a soft-touch surface rather than a meaningful skin-care feature. Breathable fibres and a spring core give it better airflow prospects than an all-foam mattress, while the single-sided design keeps care simple because rotation matters more than flipping.
Firm support is the deciding factor here, especially for back sleepers, front sleepers and average-to-heavier bodies that tend to benefit from a steadier surface under the hips. Sleep quality improves in the strongest feedback, with less morning aching, less tossing and a general sense that the mattress feels well made; that fits the 1,400-spring zoned core, which should feel more stable under load than a cheaper open-coil construction. Lighter bodies may struggle most. The manufacturer leans on pressure-relief language, but a recurring complaint is that the delivered mattress feels much firmer than expected, with little give even after several weeks, so slim side sleepers may not compress the memory foam enough to reach the spring zoning properly. Several people also describe an adjustment period of around a month, which makes the first few nights a poor guide to the settled feel. Couples should get reasonable movement control from individually pocketed springs, particularly compared with traditional sprung mattresses. A very light partner beside a heavier one may still find the surface unforgiving rather than adaptive. Temperature looks sensible rather than specialist: the breathable fibre claim and pocket-spring cavity help, but memory foam in a pillow top will not feel as airy as wool, cotton or latex comfort layers. For back and front sleepers wanting a firm, supportive Silentnight with modest cushioning, this is the right call. For lightweight side sleepers or anyone wanting a softer pressure-relieving cradle, look at softer memory-foam hybrids or the £700+ pocket-sprung tier instead.

Feels properly supportive with just a bit of softness on top, but the delivery turned up later than promised and I was sleeping on the sofa for longer than Id planned.
Feels properly firm with a bit of softness on top, and my back has been much happier since switching to it. It doesnt get overly warm and it stays fairly steady when my partner turns over. Overall a solid, no-nonsense mattress that does what it says without any drama.

Good support although felt firmer than one I tried instore
Very comfortable and well made mattress. Very happy with the purchase.
Went into the store with knowledge of what we wanted for our bed comfort, tryed the test bed, for our sleeping patterns, then were shown the mattress that we already had from Dreams before, it was firmer reason being were ready for a new mattress.
We are very happy with the quality and comfort of our new mattress
I bought a new mattress from the store. A member of staff provided guidance throughout the process. I'm really enjoying my new firm mattress with a built in mattress topper.
A good firm mattress. Perfect for the other half and just needed a bit of extra from a mattress topper for my side. Good price, great service. Would buy from Dreams again.
Firm and comfortable - exactly what I was looking for!
After trying various mattresses and toppers we found they were uncomfortable too quick, so we decided to go to Dreams and see what they had to offer. We were invited to try the mattress tester to discover exactly which mattress we needed. We were then advised the best mattress for our sleeping positions was the Silentnight sleep response support 1400 pocket sprung mattress. (Which has changed our sleeping completely, no more tossing and turning, no more stiffness, just comfortable restful sleep).
Love love love!!! I broke my back 2 years ago and have slept terribly since. This mattress was a game changer and is firm enough to keep my body flat and aligned, with enough give to not feel like Im sleeping on the floor.
This is my 3rd silent night mattress over the last 18 years, even after testing numerous mattresses out in store and trying several different manufacturers we found this one to be the most suited for us. Now after a few weeks of owning this mattress, up to now its been great, sleep has improved and no more aching on a morning. Still early days so time will tell how good it is.
A nice firm mattress but still very comfortable,with plenty of room to sleep .
My back problems have eased considerably since buying this mattress. Having a good nights sleep every night.
Had the first good nights sleep in years on my new mattress.
Incredible mattress that has helped with my back I have had a few mattresses and this firm mattresses is the best
We tried out the special dreams sleep set up, to discover the best mattress for us & I'm so glad we did. I honestly get THE BEST nights sleep since getting this mattress. I absolutely love it! We both suffer with bad backs so it's made such a difference to both of us. I would 100% percent recommend this mattress.
This mattress has changed my life, its so comfortable and has sorted my back pain out.
Perfect firmness, not too high and not too low, and I am sleeping so deeply since we bought it. The only drawback is I dont want to get up in the mornings.
