It could soon be the reason you tell people you fell asleep in record time, especially for those who are back or stomach sleepers. Hot sleepers – you'll be pleased to know that this mattress can stop you from suffering from night sweats and you won't wake up dripping. It can also provide comfort and support, but this can vary from person to person.
This quality mattress is suitable for a wide range of people. Due to the firmness and density, you can expect it to be for support rather than comfort – but that's not to say it isn't a comfortable mattress. You will definitely find it supportive of each sleep position. Not only that, we can use this mattress to keep our body temperature at an ideal level.
This hybrid mattress has been carefully crafted to make it the product that it is. So, we want to tell you more about some of the features you'll find inside your HiGRID mattress. Each layer plays its part in your sleep experience and it's good to know what their jobs are. Hybrid mattresses are made up of different materials and this one uses memory foam, pocket springs and their SmartGRID technology.
Here are a few of the most important features of the HiGRID Premium Hybrid Mattress.
Just above the engineered structured fabric with an anti-skid base, you'll find two layers of high-resilience foam. They sandwich the pocket-sprung layer which helps to enhance the responsiveness of the mattress. As well as this, HiGRID states that it provides stability and advanced orthopaedic support. Where these two layers assist with support, the hypersoft foam layer is used for a comfort layer.
This layer features individual pocketed spring coils. They’re made of stainless steel which makes them durable so you can have a good night’s sleep for years to come.
The pocket springs give a slight bounce to the mattress but not enough to make you sink in. It creates the ideal sleep surface for pressure relief. These springs work well with their grid to give you good support.
The grid itself is made from HyperElastic Polymer that’s soft yet firm and balances comfort and support. You can expect the mattress to regulate your core body temperature thanks to the open grid structure. It allows your body heat to pass through rather than being retained.
Using this grid helps to mould the structure to the body curvatures. It cradles your body shape to relieve any pressure while remaining firm enough to support your back and spine.
When testing out the Premium Hybrid Mattress from HiGRID, I found it to be quite dense to lie on and I didn’t really sink into it. It doesn’t have the most contouring structure but it does work for all sleeping positions. However, it is still comfortable to sleep on – especially for those who are front or back sleepers.
A positive to its density and lack of bounce is the good edge support and motion isolation. Sharing a bed has never been easier with no movement to wake you up and the whole sleep surface to lie on without sinking too deep.
This hybrid mattress comes rolled up tight in a bag which could be reused – obviously, you won’t be fitting the mattress back in… I’m not sure what other purpose you could use it for, I would’ve preferred a cardboard box that I could recycle. But hey, I’m sure you could find a use for it.
Another reason for wanting a box instead of the bag is that it was very tricky to take the mattress out. There were two of us tackling the mattress and it took some time and effort.
Our review can have a lot of information to digest so we like to break it down into a few points of what we love about this product. Many people would enjoy having this mattress in their bedroom to help them get a comfortable night's sleep.
It's not all positive and one mattress isn't going to suit every single person. To give you our honest review, we wanted to summarise some of the things that aren't so good about this mattress. This is to show who the mattress might not be suitable for.
Delivery – You’ll receive free shipping with your mattress order and you can expect it to be dispatched fairly quickly. So, you won’t be waiting forever for it to arrive on your doorstep.
Payment – The standard payment methods are available to purchase from the Sleep Company, and PayPal is also an option. For an even quicker payment, you can use ApplePay for an instant method. Paying couldn't be any simpler.
Online customer service – If you have any burning questions, you can drop HiGRID an email or talk to them on their live chat – but that’s only available during working hours. Otherwise, you can comment below and we will help you out!
While the HiGRID mattress is of high quality, it does have some negatives to it which might make you want to look elsewhere. We've tried to find another alternative for you that may be better suited to what you need. One that's easier to remove from its packaging and to move onto the bed frame.
A slightly more expensive alternative is the Simba Hybrid Pro Mattress which features the same number of layers as the HiGRID Premium Hybrid Mattress. However, you can expect a good balance of comfort and support. It's a high-quality and durable mattress that comes with a 10-year guarantee.

There isn’t really any mention of sustainability or the environment on their website so we can’t comment on too much. However, we can take a look at the materials used in this product to see if they’re eco-friendly.
While it isn't the worst product for sustainability, it could undoubtedly be better.
We talk about testing each product before giving our honest opinion, but it's probably worth knowing how exactly we do that. There's a process that we go through before writing up our final review. On a broad level, the products go through these three tests:
Now, you might be wondering what that actually means. So, to make it a little clearer, these are the tests conducted to gauge its quality:
The HiGRID mattress is made up of 7 layers that each serve a different purpose. At the very top, you will find the soft touch cover that can be removed for washing. What’s more, it has breathable properties to keep your temperature regulated throughout the year.
Breathability is continued through to the open grid structure that they have named SmartGRID. The holes in between the grid structure keep the air flowing through the mattress. I received this sample of the layer which seemed a bit random as it was just chucked in the bag with no context but it’s useful to know exactly what goes into making the mattress. The grid is designed to give both comfort and support because it adapts when you move around. I found there to be a weird crinkling feeling underneath me but I would imagine the more you use it, the less noticeable it will become.
All-in-all, it’s a good mattress, especially for those looking for support. But some factors bring our rating down. I wasn’t blown away by it, however, the various layers will suit some sleep styles.
You might be left with a couple of unanswered questions after taking a look at our review, but hopefully, we can cover a couple more things for you in our FAQ.
The structure of this mattress has been designed to reduce sagging. Most hybrid mattresses last a long time due to the foam and spring combination – this one has the added reinforcement of the grid.
In short, yes. The cover is removable and can be popped in the wash to keep it clean.
As we said before, it’s been designed to reduce sagging so it can last a while. You can also be reassured by the 10-year guarantee they have to offer.
