This is a fantastic review and you have covered all areas (and areas i didnt think i needed to hear). This was exactly what i wanted to see to make a fully informed decision. Simba purchased!
@@josephwall5215 ahh okay, cool! When it arrives and after several hours, press on the mattress with your hands and let me know if you hear like an odd noise & feel a weird texture. When I press on mine, it’s not like I’m pressing on a cushion. I think it’s the springs I can hear when I press on it. Ta 😂
I’ve got one coming next week, your reviews really are one of the few honest reviews out there! Great stuff and thanks for not promising me it’s comfortable you are bang on with comfort being subjective!
@@alanrossreviews thanks for taking the time to reply. I have watched pretty much all of your mattress reviews and others looking for a new mattress 😂 I currently have a tempur cloud that my mrs picked we both hate it, not much support and so bloody hot! Not easy to find a new one with so many options, nectar, otty, Emma (well you know them all 😂) thanks for helping me to make a more informed choice! Also the sex part is definitely something worth mentioning😂 I mean if you’ve ever tried it on a tempur you have to use a grappling hook to climb out after 😂
Thanks for the comprehensive review. Just bought the Simba Pro cyber Monday deal. Previously sleeping on a Simba Hybrid which I so far have really enjoyed but we got a new super king bed. I'm a heavy lad, 20 stone and sleep on back and side.
20 stone is at the extreme end of what these mattresses can handle. surprised to hear the simba is ok with that, the pro will be even better for support, in theory anyways 😊
Hi Alan, good review. I know it's subjective but from the mattresses you've tried, which one would you recommend for a heavy side sleeper with bit of a dodgy lower back that likes to sleep cool?
its impossible to say other than start by looking at the firmer options. what are your sleeping positions? if side then middle ground mattress will be a better option, back and tummy firmer options. but then, heat issues? you want bounce or better motion transfer?
@@alanrossreviews which mattresses would you class as middle ground? I'm not really too fussed about bounce or motion transfer as long as the mattress is good for a heavy side sleeper and doesnt get too warm.
@@smokee3820 the hybrid pro might be a fit, i always worry about side sleepers though who need a softer feel really. A bit softer would be nectar and the simba original. Ergoflex is another option if you are ok with memory foam. Personally i prefer memory foam for side sleeping. Another option is something on the firmer side and fine tune with a topper.
Hi Alan does the Batting have scrim reinforcement on it? I was thinking of just adding a layer of wool batting to my non Pro version but not sure if the scrim could damage the foam layer
Excellent review and great to compare to the previous Simba Hybrid. Really very helpful for us mere mortals to navigate the complexities of picking the right mattress.
Very useful review Alan, cheers. I have spinal impingement and suffer with it quite badly. The fact that I do a physically demanding job doesn't help me much, so a good semi firm mattress like this appears to be, might just do the trick, helping me get a good nights sleep and not waking up in the night due to pain. I have been sleeping on a cheap memory foam mattress that i got with my box bed from Ikea, which has been ok, but it is getting quite soft now after about 5 years of use. I shall watch a few more reviews of yours before I make my final choice, but this is looking promising so far. Thank you.
Great review, Alan. Very insightful. I owned a Simba Hybrid Mattress for approx. 1.5 years and it had to be returned due the mattress inheriting dips under where I would sleep. After sending through some images they offered an exchange without hesitation. Great customer service is a big plus for me. I paid the difference to upgrade to the Simba pro as I am quite a warm-bodied sleeper. It is being delivered today. I do sleep on my side so I'm hoping it's not too firm for my sleeping style. I do like a firmer mattress so I'm hopeful I'll be fine. I'll let you know how I find it after a couple of weeks.
@@alanrossreviews Thanks Alan. Had a positive first night. Much cooler than the standard hybrid mattress, which was a feature I didn't know that I needed until I had it. I could also feel the difference of more springs. It's hard to describe. To me the mattress feels like it has more travel but also more support too.
It's slightly cooler than the standard mattress and a lot softer after a few months use. I find it great for side sleeping! Overall I'm happy with the upgrade.
Such a helpful review thank you. Can you help advise? Bought an Eve premium and it was like a brick. Caused big aches and pains on the joints as I'm a side sleeper. So then went at the other end of the spectrum and bought an Emma hybrid which was too soft. Worked well for me but gave my husband back pain. So I guess we need something in the middle? Could the Simba Hybrid pro be the one in the middle? Can't keep buying mattresses!
@@alanrossreviews Haven't seen it - was joking with my husband this is something we could do with. Didn't know they existed so will take a look. Thank you! Happy New Year!
Hi Alan, we bought Nectar and did not like it as it very firm. We are looking for a firmness level lesser than Nectar but not too soft either (medium firm) Can you please recommend a brand for us please ? Many thanks in advance , thanks
Hi Alan, thanks for the review. I have this mattress, and have a question for you. When pressing on it with my hands, it feels like I can hear the springs, it’s weird. It’s almost like there’s a sheet of plastic underneath which I can feel when touching the mattress (even though there isn’t). Does yours feel the same?
Great review, any suggestions. I'm not worried too much about temperature regulating, but like the feel of a soft mattress. I sleep on my side and sometimes front, weigh 70kg. I like the feel of the next marshmallow memory foam, the simba hybrid, the emma hybrid (currently unavailable), I haven't found eve or nectar to feel. Any suggestions would be most gr8ful
can you punctuate your vids with a best to worse category? Like is the simba pro better than the dreamcloud? I sleep often on back and sides. Thanks btw keep it going!
Great review Alan, thank you. Can I ask you a question please? I suffer from Sacroiliac joint dysfunction in my lower back, I like to sleep on my side, or front instead of my back. Which mattress would you recommend if you know any? Totally fine if not, I just wanted to ask as you come across very knowledgable. Many thanks
Hi Alan, I'm 175cm and weigh 70 kg, what would you recommend for someone like me. I don't mind softness but i don't like the feeling that I'm sunk into the mattress and therefore kinda feeling stuck? I'm lighter then i used to be so if i don't know that will change that sensation.
How is your Simba holding up. Any good for side sleepers ? I’ve shortlisted Simba and ready to buy . Please update on your status with Simba. Thank you
Hey good video Iv had for years and kind of ignored the fact should rotate regularly 👀… was wondering if this simba mattress can be cleaned via carpet cleaner machine, as my mattress is almost two years
We have a superking Vispring divan med/firm (one on each side) and its giving me horrendous shoulder pain...so much so that one shoulder has completely frozen. I believe that this is due to the ridge that we've ended up with in the middle. What mattress would you recommend for side sleepers with shoulder pain? I do get hot so i've had reservations about memory foam so thought the hybrid would have been good but you have said its not good for shoulder pain. Any recommendations as to what we should be replacing our mattress with please?
what are your weights? if you cant tolerate memory foam on top i would suggest trying a soft latex topper on a memory foam mattress. if otherwise i would suggest a softish mattress without too much pushback, but i need to know your weights to suggest one.
Hi Alan, I'm 79 weight 9.7stone and have fbromyalia. I'm a tummy sleeper. Have always had a sprung mattress. Would this mattress be good for me. Thanking you in advance of your reply.
Hi Alan, There's quite a large difference in weight between my partner and I (100kg / 48kg), and we are mostly side sleepers. Would you recommend the Simba Pro in this scenario?
i will be getting the tweak mattress soon, might be an option, the two sides can be configured differently. the simba would work if you prefer a softer feel and your partner prefers a firmer feel.
We have same problem 114kg and 70kg. Will this give my husband enough support without sagging? The nectar memory foam has sagged more than 4cm and is being returned. Please help. When will the tweak version be available?
Hi Alan, great review. I'm really struggling with which mattress would be best for me so was hoping you could make a recommendation. I've recently replaced my firm matress as it has been causing severe neck pains for around a year, and purchased a emma hybrid. Although the mattress is really comfy and seems to have helped with neck pain, It is cuasing back pain for both myself and my partner. I am a side sleeper and weigh 14 st, my partner is 9 st and tend to switch between side and front sleeping, thank you in advance 😊
i wonder if you have considered the tweak mattress where you can configure each side differently? sounds like the emma hybrid was a tad too soft for you. next level up would be likes of hugge and nectar but they are both memory foam so a different feel.
@@alanrossreviews thank you for your response Alan. The tweak does sound like a good option but I couldn't find their website online, would you happen to have the link for me please?
Hi Alan, I'm 6f1 and just under 14st, I was looking at the emma original and simba pro, is there one you would recommend? I'm mostly a back and stomach sleeper but do sleep on my side occasionally
its hard to say, both have pluses and minuses. firmness level not dissimilar it will be a personal thing. emma a tad firmer which may be better for tummy sleeping. but really its close between them.
Hi Alan Finally received my first item from eve, the temperature balancing mattress protector. Not impressed, the packing is dirty and the holding bag was stained.. I haven't fully opened the mattress protector yet waiting for the mattress to arrive. Not a great first impression..
Nice review, always interesting to see the layers up close. Undecided if I’ll keep mine, I like it but think it may be a little too firm for my shoulders.

@@oumuamua1963I got the single. I'm still doing my rotations so far no issues I'm encountering, I weigh about 14 stone. My partner does sleep on it with me sometimes but can't see any dips in height. Like this guy said, its meant for a cool night sleep but at the same time it does warm you up alot on cold nights providing you have a nice duvet for it ☺
Hi. Me and the wife are heavy people between 17- 20 stone. We both sleep on our sides and back but never our front. We have a slated bed base. What mattress would you recommend?
Good review, I wish I'd seen this before I got my Simba Hybrid. Its now going back after a terrible experience. Those springs are so small and bear no resemblance to whats been marketed.

@@thabitalani1407 i cant tell you that. i can only tell you my inclination as a side sleeper with shoulder impingement is to avoid push back at all costs. Nothing is more subjectively individual than a mattress. This is why i pointed that personally i sleep on the ergoflex but that might be too firm without a topper.
@@richardjones-jp1db sorry i was thinking of the emma hybrid. simba are saying the pro is softer than the Simba original hybrid so if they are right the pro is the better option of those two.
@@richardjones-jp1db well at least you get the trial. the simba hybrid i reviewed was an older version, so im just going by what they are saying now. tried to get one to test again but no luck.

Undecided if I’ll keep mine, I like it but think it may be a little too firm for my shoulders. So been looking at the REM-fit 600 lux, Brook + Wilde and Casper Hybrid.

I know Casper are no longer in the U.K. but mattressonline are selling the remaining stock with a pretty good discount.
the simba hybrid pro is a tiny bit softer in the middle but overall almost identical softness.
this is interesting as I too dont like firm beds. so overall it wouldnt let your shoulders sink in enough?

Hi!Can you tell me how it's your super king matress?Thank you
We've had the Simba hybrid (not Pro) for about 4 weeks and it's going back. We don't find it comfortable and are not sleeping well at all. Too firm.
the emma hybrid might be an alternative
wow this is great advice. did you find a better one for u?????
Hi what did you end up getting.
@@Softpeechez otty. We love it ❤️
Hi. Looks like you understand mattresses.
I am struggling to find decent mattress.
Can you recommend any?
I am 15 stone, hot sleeper, side and belly sleeper.
Thanks in advance.
probably would want to be looking at natural latex but they dont come cheap.
@@alanrossreviews do you have any brands to recomend?
Cheers.
@@Ed.Focuss only one i have reviewed is the Una.
@@alanrossreviews thanks, I will have a look at that.
I found some natural latex toppers.
Do they work fine?
@@Ed.Focuss yes natural latex is great as long as you like the feel of latex. they sleep cooler and last longer.
Very interesting
