Thank you for your videos. I'm trying to research the Simba but so many videos are just essentially paid influencers. Thanks for giving your honest opinion
Thank you so much for sharing this review. There is a maze of marketing sales buff to get through when trying to select a new mattress. The issue of sitting in bed is something I do a lot to chill-out watch TV etc and the dip issue where your butt is placed is something that also causes me pain if there is too much compression and indentation to the mattress. Thank you again
That's a refurb M8 mine was immaculate I'm 6 years in for the Scirocco and can't complain at all it's been amazing every single night a godsend would highly recommend
I have the Simba Lux and it’s absolutely brilliant. Medium firm but very comfortable. I have noticed I hardly move during the night. Happy to be in the same place. I sleep better and wake very refreshed. I actually look forward to going to bed at night. The Simba lux that I have is a double, but I had a single Simba Pro but, it was too firm and too small. Double lux all the way for me with a 200 day trial period and a 10 year warranty.😊
Definitely i go for the Octaspring because of the memory foam. i have an old cheap $200 metal springs mattress i had it for 12 year now. I sit a lot on my bed with my computer and watching tv for hours. I have to turn on my sides every 5 minutes because i get hip pain and all my back and neck get stiff. Now I'm going to buy the Octaspring and I can't wait to get it. Thank you for your honest review Ash. But i would like to know please the difference between the Dormeo Scirocco, and the Octasmart®Deluxe Mattress which cost in Australia, $609.00 Regular price$1,199.00. I don't want to buy the wrong one. $609.00 still a lot of money but it's worth it. Because the bed is the ultimate resting place to recover from every type fatigue or illness. Not to mention the other pleasures too that you can enjoy in bed . 🤣😂
Bought a Dormeo last year - never got to use it as it was defective and didn’t expand or unroll. Their customer service was appalling - told me it would take 14 business days to review the images I submitted to them. It wasn’t until I was blunt with them on the phone they managed to review it within the hour. Then took ten days to collect it. Think I dodged a bullet.
@dtz1000 It's because you said was, implying past tense. Yours is great then. Ours was great too until something leaked and mould got under it. Tried to clean it and wrecked it. Returning an Emma one we've had a year, terrible.
Great review. Super helpful as I'm just about to buy a new bed anmd Simba sound like the way to go for us as we both prefer a firmer bed and my wife gets quite hot in the night so the Dormeo souinds like her worst nightmare lol. Thanks!
Everywhere I look everyone recommend simba. Just received mine and is very stiff I feel like I am sleeping on the floor. I don’t know how people can sleep on it. The main advantage for me is that keeps me cool very well.
Hi we have loved watching your reviews on the simba mattresses….how are the simba pillows holding up? We are thinking of buying them but keep seeing bad reviews. Would love to hear if the Dormeo mattress is still going ok. We are undecided on what to go for, we were planning on getting the simba luxe but keep reading bad reviews.
Thanks. Simba Pillows are great. Ive added more of the cubes inside as they starting to lose some of their structure, but I have plenty left still to refill it, so no issue there. Dormeo mattress is great. Definitely the right choice for us. Depends on your preference though for firmness. We prefer a soft to Medium. But its not stupid soft. its hard to explain. Its firm soft. I know that doesn't make sense :-)
Did you end up keeping the dormeo? I picked up the simba luxe but haven’t been happy with it as it has dips after a month. Thinking of going for the dormeo instead
@@AshLOVEsTECH thanks. Think I’ll go ahead and order the dormeo from Costco once I hear back from simba about the return. Also just seen there haven’t been any new vids in a long while, they were good keep them up :)
@@AshLOVEsTECHfinally got the scirocco mattress delivered, wow it’s a far far superior mattress to the Simba. Simba is such a gimmick in comparison. Glad there was this video directly comparing them, wouldn’t have got it otherwise
Thank you for your review of the Dormeo. We are currently doing our research to replace a Casper Original mattress. I am also intrigued by your foundation. Would you be willing to share who makes it?
I've spent over £750 on Remfit 500 ortho and after 2 years we had to get Panda toper as we still had lower and mid back problems. 100 days trial is not enough for me
I tried it. They are incredibly hot because the memory foam is 9cm thick and is higher density than most others on sale. So you get very little air flow. Apart from the heat, it is comfortable.
Most companies donate the mattresses that are returned by buyers who were not satisfied nor pleased with their purchase to different charities like the salvation army good-will and others this way in the very end the mattress companies get a sweet deal a government subsidized tax write off it's 🆗 its the entrepreneur capitalist american way of doing business. So in reality the mattress companies never lose no kind of money cha-ching 🤑💵 💰. See here folks they don't make as much profit 💰 when they donate to charity but they don't lose no cash 💵 either. I might add folks that all memory foam consist of the same chemistry same substance the only thing is that these different competing mattress companies with many different names too many boot that is too many to count. Well they just simply put on a different competing face, spin, twist, concept, idea, on their own particular brand of memory foam mattresses and products and how they differ and perform against the competition which is also fierce who i might add are also marketing the same identical memory foam products and its chemistry. Folks 99% of the time maybe even 100%, it's all a big gimmick with a dramatic sales pitch and twist just to make the sale. Folks in the very end memory foam will always be memory foam only with a different twist. And folks that is all she wrote. Fool me once fool me twice we get it. Folks they might be able to change minds 🧠 and hearts along the way with their new ideas and different twist but they can not certainly change the go- to factor the chemistry to the hot and quick sand like sinking outdated antiquated memory foam feeling Folks nothing personal i have tried all kinds of sinking memory foam and i hated them all. i 👁️ for one have learned my lesson and i might add it has been a costly one along the way. So i finaly went 100% latex that's the real McCoy the real deal folks no sinking quick sand memory feeling here hellooo...😜☮️✌️
Still very comfy. Definitely has slight indentations from where you sleep and a kind of hump in the middle between. But you get that with all these types. Overall still v happy with it.
@@AshLOVEsTECHHey, thanks for your review. Could you please tell which firmness of Symba did you order- like the Lux and Pro all can be soft- medium- firm- medium form etc. which ones you have tried?Many thanks 🙏
@@Jekaterinna hmm. I’m not sure when I ordered mine there was an option at the time. This was 1.5 years ago. Maybe they’ve added that as it was becoming an issue.
I've spoken to dormer about the firmness of the mattress they say it's medium to firm , do you think it's alot more better than the Simba , struggling to make a choice what to get
The Sirocco one is quite a bit less firm than the Simba. But it's not too soft either. It just moulds nicely into the contours of your body, whereas the Simba feels like you are sleeping on top of it.

I can’t comment on the deluxe octospring I haven’t tried it. But, the one I have is still great. Loving it. You won’t go wrong with either.

That’s not good to hear. Mine came already fully flat. Doesn’t sound like same one.
Mine was great. It was one of their cheaper models.
@@dtz1000 what did you buy after that
@@StickyGeko I didn't buy anything after that. I'm still using it.

Same. That’s why I opted for the Dormeo
@@AshLOVEsTECH how it is? Is it softer? Looking for something softer than simba but not extremely soft
@@itsnotme089yep. It’s a good in between. Definately softer than Simba but not too soft.

We'll be getting the Serogo Version once we've moved home
Did you end up keeping the dormeo? I picked up the simba luxe but haven’t been happy with it as it has dips after a month. Thinking of going for the dormeo instead
Yes. Went with the Dormeo and still happy with it. It’s going strong. It has dipped a bit but really not too much.
@@AshLOVEsTECH thanks. Think I’ll go ahead and order the dormeo from Costco once I hear back from simba about the return. Also just seen there haven’t been any new vids in a long while, they were good keep them up :)

i bought a dormeo in 2014 and I love it. Every friend of mine who has slept on it loves it.😊
Thank you for your review of the Dormeo. We are currently doing our research to replace a Casper Original mattress. I am also intrigued by your foundation. Would you be willing to share who makes it?
It was a bit confusing not sure what one had the dip when you set on it.
How does the dormeo compare to the Emma brand mattress which I am told are also less firm than the simba range
Thanks. Can the Dormeo be flipped over to other side for extra longevity?
No it’s not flippable unfortunately.
rotate it
Hi, we are looking to buy this mattress now, it is still expensive though... Just wanted to ask if still good after 2 years? are you still using it?
Yep. Still using it and going strong 👍
Excellent Channel And Informative
I've spent over £750 on Remfit 500 ortho and after 2 years we had to get Panda toper as we still had lower and mid back problems. 100 days trial is not enough for me
If you're adding a soft topper then it looks like you chose too firm a mattress. It's rated 9/10 on firmness, that's probably too much.
Which one would you say is better, the Sirocco one or the Octaspring 9500?
Sorry. I couldn’t say. I’ve only tried the scirocco from Dormeo and love it.
Any difference between a pocket spring mattress with a foam topper and a hybrid mattress?
Same thing.
Hi does the cover come off for washing on the Dormeo?
Yes. It’s zips off from underneath.
Hey, can’t see the sirocco on their site.. how strange
www.dormeo.co.uk/octapring-sirocco-memory-foam-mattress
Did you ever tested an ergoflex mattress?
I tried it. They are incredibly hot because the memory foam is 9cm thick and is higher density than most others on sale. So you get very little air flow. Apart from the heat, it is comfortable.
@@dtz1000 thank you!
What happens to all the mattresses that are being sent back? Landfill? 😕
I believe they sell off as refurbished. 👍

It’s good. Certainly better than the Simba. Not so firm.
Let's get you to 1000 subs!
Haha Thanks Kaiser 🙃
@@AshLOVEsTECH I just bought a couple of silent night memory foam mattresses.... In 24hr relax from packaging mode as we speak.

Inwas looking at the octaspring tribrid is that not the one you have on this video
@@scottparden-bell5454 no its called the Sirocco. Looks very similar though: www.dormeo.co.uk/octapring-sirocco-memory-foam-mattress
@@AshLOVEsTECH thanks I'll have a look at this one , too many to choose from
I will never have Dormeo on principal, namely because their adverts are way to long and boring.
Do they send you to sleep
These are nearly twice the price of the Simba.
Depends when they have deals on. Which is regularly.
Was only £100 difference when I got mine.
Both are so damn expensive
@@smartgorilla Exceedingly, but if they guaranteed a decent night's sleep, I'd consider one.
What an awful rant the dormeo advert is 😡
Dormeo Octo is best most comfy bed we have ever had. Well with a couple thousand Canadian. Most comfortable bed
