Asquith Mattresses
Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right mattress is an important decision. Below you’ll find answers to our most common questions. If you’d like personal guidance, our team is here to help.
Product & Comfort
What makes Asquith mattresses different?
Asquith mattresses are designed for dependable, everyday support with honest construction. We focus on proven pocket spring systems, supportive comfort layers and a calm, breathable sleep feel—without showroom mark-ups.
How firm are your mattresses?
Our core range is built around a supportive medium-firm feel. Firmness can feel different depending on body weight, sleeping position and bed base. If you tell us how you sleep, we can recommend the best fit.
Are your mattresses suitable for side, back, and front sleepers?
Yes. Our mattresses are designed to support all sleeping positions by encouraging balanced spinal alignment and reducing partner disturbance through independently responding pocket springs.
Will the mattress feel soft or “sink-in”?
Our mattresses are designed to feel supportive rather than deeply sink-in. Comfort layers provide pressure relief, while the overall feel remains stable and responsive.
Materials & Craftsmanship
What materials do you use?
Materials vary by model, but typically include individually pocketed springs, supportive comfort layers and breathable fabrics selected for durability and everyday comfort. Specific specifications are listed on each product page.
Are your mattresses handmade?
Our mattresses are made in the UK using established build techniques and quality-controlled processes. Each mattress is produced to order to ensure consistent support and finish.
Are your mattresses eco-friendly?
We prioritise durability and long-term performance—choosing a mattress designed to last helps reduce replacement frequency. For model-specific materials and care guidance, please refer to the product page and aftercare guide.
Sizes & Compatibility
What sizes do you offer?
We offer the full range of standard UK sizes. For a complete breakdown of measurements, please see our Sizing Chart.
Are your mattresses compatible with all bed bases?
Our mattresses are suitable for most supportive bases, including divan and slatted frames. For best performance and longevity, ensure your base is level, sturdy, and appropriately spaced if slatted.
Delivery
How long does delivery take?

Care & Longevity
How long will my mattress last?
With proper care, a quality pocket sprung mattress can provide reliable comfort and support for many years. Longevity depends on usage, body weight, base support, and rotation habits.
How do I care for my mattress?
We recommend using a breathable protector and rotating or turning your mattress according to the guidance for your model. For full instructions, see our Mattress Care & Aftercare Guide.
