In the world of mattresses, it's like a jungle sometimes; it makes us wonder how we came across something as comforting and supportive as the Simba Sleep Earth Escape Mattress. Known for blending innovative technology with traditional materials, Simba Sleep hits it out of the park with this mattress. It was an experience to walk into our test store, curious and excited to see what makes this mattress worthy to bear the Simba name. And frankly, our sleep has never been the same.
Just a quick look at the Simba Sleep Earth Escape Mattress reveals the obvious thought and effort that has gone into its design. Dressed in a smooth, durable, breathable viscose damask cover, it’s an inviting scene from the get-go. To my surprise, the cover was also tufted invisibly which added a leap of luxury. And, beneath this plush surface lies an array of technologically advanced and natural elements that make this mattress a winning choice.
The starring feature of the Earth Escape Mattress—3800 Aerocoil conical springs tucked away in dual layers—works wonders by contouring and adapting to your unique shape and weight. As you sit or lay on it, the movement of the springs encourages air flow, leading to a chilled-out night's sleep. Alongside this, the accompanying CoreMAX sprung base featuring seven zones of 1000 pocket springs offers targeted support where it's needed the most. So if you're sharing the bed and your partner happens to be a gymnast in sleep, this feature will handle the motion transfer quite gracefully.
Then comes the layers of British Hampshire wool and the proprietary Eco comfort fibre. Breathable, sustainable, and temperature regulating underpinned by a natural durability that help the mattress hold its shape for years to come. More so, it keeps you warm in winter and cools you down during summer—a welcome feature for year-round comfort.
But, everything wasn't all guns blazing with the Earth Escape Mattress.
The mattress does tout a tantalising height of 30cm which might be a bit imposing. Every cloud has a silver lining, however; the extra height means more layers and more comfort, but it does take some getting used to, and might demand deeper fitted sheets.
Also, it came to light that the mattress requires regular rotation. Although it’s not a deal-breaker for many, for me, mattress maintenance can be a bit of a chore. The last thing I want is to add another task to the list, especially if you're not able to lift heavyweight too often.
According to my detailed in-store testing, this medium-firm tension mattress will best accommodate side and back sleepers. Particularly, if you are of average weight, you’ll find that the mattress gives you a harmonious blend of comfort and support in these positions. However, side sleepers with an hourglass figure might need to pause and consider a softer tension for proper sinkage. Back sleepers, on the other hand, are in for a treat. The support this mattress provides is phenomenal and should help with sleep-related aches and pains.
I've seen other customer reviews too. Helen, from Birmingham, said that the Earth Escape mattress had helped her back like no other mattress had. She sleeps on her back predominantly and claimed that she woke up feeling like she'd spent the night floating. I can see where she's coming from – the example we tested in store did provide excellent support. Another gentleman, Liam from London, shared his experience of how the mattress handles motion transfer exceptionally well, and he was thankful to finally get an undisturbed night's sleep.
In conclusion, the Simba Sleep Earth Escape Mattress delivers more than just a place to rest your weary body. It combines comfort, support and flexibility in a way few mattresses do. However, prospective buyers need to bear in mind the regular rotation maintenance and the extra high profile, which might not appeal to everyone.
Nevertheless, with a generous 10-year guarantee, this Simba mattress is a potential game-changer for many people. With advanced tech, natural fillings, and underpinned by genuine positive customer feedback, it's definitely worth considering how much of a beneficial impact it could have on your sleep.
So whether you're looking for a mattress that adapts to your body, controls temperature effectively, or simply provides a good night's sleep, the Earth Escape Mattress from Simba Sleep could very well be your ticket to dreamland.

While the temperature regulation with this product is impressive, the overall comfort didn't meet my expectations. It's fine but nothing spectacular.
This mattress was huge and so very comfortable. I got this in a super king size and amazed how good it is. great support for the whole body and feels cool to lay on as well - a must buy!!
The Simba Earth Escape mattress is brilliant - Really comfortable, we wake up feeling refreshed, rather than aching.. and at a very reasonable price too.
How wonderful to get a good nights sleep again on our simba earth mattress. Its a dream come true. First class service and a first class product. I look forward to going to bed.
This mattress has made such a difference to the pain in my back due to Arthritis, I now enjoy going to bed.
We have had our mattress a week and are very impressed and had the best nights sleep ever on our wonderful Earth Escape Mattress.
Great Mattress, lovely to sleep on. Definitely recommend
Moving from Simba foam to Earth has changed sleeping for the better - again. Temperature regulation, comfort, I'm snoozing my way to heaven. Also kudos to the delivery people for hoofing it down the stairs like it was nothing. Sweet dreams Simba
I'm still only about a month in, but so far the mattress has been lovely. While it's a bit firmer than I am used to, I'm surprised that it has still felt soft while being supportive.
I love this mattress. Slept so well since I've had it,it's so comfy,supports me in the right places. So chuffed with my purchase.
Mattress is supposedly medium firm but feels more like medium soft or just medium. Am still needing extra pillows under my hips but with less movement in the night. I don't wake with pain as usual. 2 week trial so far Simba suggest mattress takes 30 days to accomodate my body.
I've had three babies. My hips ached no matter what position I slept in. A week on my simba mattress and my hips don't hurt any more. It's pure bliss.
I changed to the Earth mattress as I found the foam topped one to be too soft and very warm. This one you don't sink into it which keeps you cooler and I feel this is definitely more for me. I've only slept in it one night so the jury is out but so far this seems to be more to my liking. Customer services continually impress me and have been a pleasure to deal with. Fingers crossed I have found my good nights sleep :-)
I have struggled to sleep for years and decided to invest in a new mattress. The Earth Escape met my eco criteria and the 200 day guarantee persuaded me to try it. After a few nights I am not noticing falling asleep - no tossing and turning, sleeping much better according to my watch and waking in the morning pain free and refreshed. I have also been using the Simba sleep app which has lots of practical tips for a good night's sleep.
I bought this mattress because I recently have vertebral fractures and I couldn't sleep anymore on my previous mattress. I got rid of mt back pain and I have been enjoying again being in my bed from the next day I got the Simba Earth Escape mattress.
This mattress is a dream. I feel so supported. Best of all no plastic foam smell to air out, I could sleep on it immediately. And I love the peace of mind knowing I'm sleeping on natural materials.
Heavy to move around but very comfortable- we're very happy with it! I particularly like how movement of my partner tends not to cause movement where I'm sleeping. First one arrived with some marks on it but customer service was very good and replacement was quickly arranged.
Having procrastinated for so long about getting a new mattress I can't believe we waited so long. The earth escape mattress feels like a cloud but at the same time firm and supportive. Hopefully it will continue to feel like this as the months go on!
It was a game changer. I used to wake with back pain and was unable to sleep on my side. Having a good night's sleep was want I needed and you mattress did it for me. Thank you. I feel like a newvperson
I have had this mattress for nearly a month now. So far I have found it to be very comfortable and I feel as though my sleep is improving slowly. I like the fact that the mattress is quite deep and it looks like the quality and craftsmanship is of an excellent standard. The purchasing process was so straightforward and considering these mattresses are not cheap, the repayment options are really very good. Delivery was a brezeze and we were kept informed and updated regularly, especially on the delivery day itself. I am optimistic that this mattress will be worth it for me
