Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress REVIEW

AD – Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress gifted for review. This post is in collaboration with Eve Sleep

They say you can’t put a price on sleep, and my God is that true. I’ve had my fair share of sleep challenges over the years, from back injuries to breastfeeding, the sleep deprived toddler years to the frustrations of a snoring partner – you name it, I’ve been there, and I know only too well the impact that poor sleep can have on your every day life.

Our old mattress had been hanging around for a while and started to sink in the middle. As a result, it was no longer supportive or fit for purpose and we would often wake to find our backs felt tense and uncomfortable.

We were recently given the opportunity to review a Premium Hybrid Mattress from Eve Sleep and literally jumped at the chance… was this my chance to finally get the good night’s sleep that I deserved?

What is the Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress?

If you haven’t heard of a hybrid mattress before, you may wonder what on earth it is. I will be honest, I had no clue. Often described as the ‘Best of both worlds’ – a hybrid mattress offers the support and firm sensation of a pocket sprung mattress with the comfort you would be used to finding in memory foam. Hybrid mattresses use a combination of springs and foam, along with a washable top cover that is temperature regulating so that you don’t get too warm in the Summer months.

The Eve Sleep Premium Hybrid Mattress combines multiple layers of foam with 90mm pocket springs and is Eve’s thickest, most sumptuous Hybrid mattress to date – more expensive than the other mattresses in their range including the Original Hybrid and Lighter Hybrid mattress.

How is the Premium Hybrid different to the original Hybrid?

There is a fairly significant difference in price, but the Eve Premium Hybrid mattress offers better cooling, as well as enhanced comfort and support from its predecessor.

Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress specification

The Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress is Which’s top scoring mattress, something which I think showcases its superior specification in terms of comfort and support.

Measuring 28cm thick, the Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress is packed with over 1,400 full-sized pocket springs and 5 layers of next generation foam topped off with a luxurious washable antibacterial and antimicrobial cover.

With medium-firm support, the Premium Hybrid is suitable for all sleeping positions and ensures your spine is well aligned, so you wont wake up with a crick in your neck.

Fpr those who have a tendency to overheat during the night, you’ll be pleased to know the Eve Premium Hybrid mattress also has tiny bits of graphite infused into the top two layers of foam to pull excess heat away from your body, ideal for those who may get hot and sweaty during the Summer.

Our Experience of the Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress

Setting up new mattress

The Eve Premium Hybrid Mattress comes rolled in plastic wrapping and is vacuum sealed, making it far more portable than you might expect – so no Ross from Friends Pivot required (unlike the removal of our old one!)

Mike easily carried the mattress upstairs and we then lay it on the bed before carefully un-sealling the outer plastic wrapping which is allowed us to unroll and position in the right place on the bed frame.

Ensuring the Eve logo was in the bottom right corner of the bed, we then gently released the inner plastic seal before  watching as the mattress literally springs to life in front of your eyes. It’s so impressive to watch! Check it out in the video below!

Whilst the majority of the pumping is pretty instant – Eve recommends 4-6 hours before it is fully ready to be slept on.

I was instantly really impressed with both the way to mattress looked and felt. The diamond effect on the top layer felt so soft and cushioned and it felt really comfortable when I lay down to test it out. I loved the fact that the top layer could also be removed and washed if required. You can buy a separate mattress topper for the Premium Hybrid too, but from a comfort perspective, this really wouldn’t be an essential.

It’s also reassuring to know that Eve offer a free 1 year trial – whilst they recommend allowing at least 30 days to adjust to a new mattress, if you’re not completely happy, you can return it via the contact it via the Eve Customer Experience Team.

30 days on… 

We have now been sleeping on the Eve Sleep Premium Hybrid Mattress for over a month now and we are both really pleased.

The mattress is super soft and comfortable and firm enough that you don’t sink into it, without feeling too solid or rigid.

My partner is normally a very sweaty sleeper (grim) and not only has this mattress helped regulate his temperature better but randomly his snoring appears to have been better too – possibly due to the superior support he is getting compared to our old mattress.

My only slight critique of the mattress is that the sides could feel a little more robust, I regularly sit on the edge of my bed when getting ready in the mornings and it does feel like it sinks down lower on the edges than it does with my previous mattress. This is a really minor niggle however for what has otherwise provided a great nights sleep.
