Hybrid® Essential: Tech Spotlight
SIMBATEX® FOAM TECHNOLOGY
A fresh perspective
Simbatex® foam plays a key role in our signature, five-star rated comfort. Which is why we had to add a layer to this, our most budget-friendly mattress. Because for us, it IS essential.
This patented, ingenious foam has an open structure, so it’s designed to support better airflow and encourage greater elasticity. And we’ve infused it with graphite, known to dissipate heat for a fresher night’s sleep.
AEROCOIL® SPRING TECHNOLOGY
Engineered for comfort
Made from mighty titanium alloy. For super strength in a tiny size.
The Hybrid® Essential features 1,000 of our patented Aerocoil® micro springs. You won’t be able to feel them, but they’re designed to offer full body alignment and support pressure relief. The kind of Simba benefits you might have heard about already.
They work in three, clever ways:
CONTOUR: each spring compresses in response to body weight, aiding pressure relief and improved support
FRESH: they encourage the flow of fresh air through the mattress as they compress
CONTROL: their conical shape means they’re designed to compress inwards, limiting transfer of movement.

What's special about a Simba?
WHY SIMBA SUITS EVERYONE
All shapes, sizes & sleep positions
Simba is the most five-star rated mattress brand in the world*. Because our unique Hybrid® mattress technology is designed to feel perfectly comfortable to everyone, no matter their shape or sleeping style.
It’s about offering improved pressure relief and full body alignment; Simba’s signature tech is designed to create a ‘hugged’, cradled feeling in the upper layers and more support in the base layers, with adjustment for hips and shoulders.
P.S. We rate our Hybrid® mattresses as ‘medium-firm’. There’s no universal firmness rating system in the industry, so we’ve aimed to align our designs with independent
studies which show this is ideal for sleep quality and comfort.

Any other questions?
No matter which of our mattress range you choose, you’ll get our innovative blend of sleep tech, carefully selected to offer Simba’s signature support at a comfortable price. The difference lies in the layers and the number of micro springs in each one.
Let’s start with the Essential mattress, our most wallet-friendly Hybrid® design, which has four layers and up to 1,000 springs, our game-changing Hybrid® Original has five layers and up to 1,900 springs, our Pro up to 4,800 springs and eight layers, the Luxe up to 5,700 springs and nine layers, and coming in at the top of the range is our Ultra, with up to 7,300 springs and eleven luxurious layers.

All our Simba beds are designed to match perfectly with your mattress. Here are a few of our most
popular:
-
Platform top
(flat top, can include divans) -
Slats
(evenly spaced boards) -
Sprung divan or box spring
(frame with springs set in)
Our mattress range features our signature Simba tech; a damaged bed could
impact its performance. We suggest trying a supportive bed base – like one of our Ottoman, Divan, Wooden or
Upholstered models – for maximum support.
If you have a slatted base, quickly whip out the tape measure to check the slats aren't more than three
inches apart. And if they are, a baseboard will help.
You’ll be pleased to know the answer is no: you don’t have to turn it, but you do need to rotate it. It’s one of the very few conditions of your 10-year warranty. Simply take it for a 180 degrees spin once a month for the first 6 months, then drop down to once every three months for the rest of its life. This will help it stay comfortable for longer.
We're not medical professionals, and we can't judge what's right for your back. All we can say is that we've received huge amounts of positive feedback from sleepers who tell us they've suffered from aches and pains and that they feel that their Simba Mattress has helped them to finally achieve a great night’s sleep.
We believe this should be accessible to more people, so we’ve included our Supportcore™ spring base, Simbatex® technology and our patented Aerocoil® springs for responsive support. Want a more enhanced sleep experience? We recommend our Hybrid® Original. If you think that might be what you're looking for, remember we also offer a 200-night trial. So you can really put your new mattress to the test.
