The Imperial Hybrid Pocket Gel Mattress offers a perfect balance of adaptive support and temperature-regulating comfort. It's designed for sleepers who run warm at night but still want the precise, body-shaped support of a pocket sprung core, making it a popular step-up choice for anyone finding an all-foam mattress too warm.

At its core, 800 individually encased pocket springs respond independently to movement, minimising motion transfer and delivering precise support across the entire body – making it a strong choice for couples and restless sleepers. Above the spring unit sits a cooling gel layer that dissipates excess heat and keeps the sleep surface comfortably cool, while also contouring to the body to relieve pressure points. The quilted panel cover adds a plush surface feel, and breathable polyester comfort layers provide insulation without trapping heat against the skin.
The combination of gel and pocket springs is what sets this mattress apart from a standard hybrid: heat that would otherwise build up in a foam comfort layer is actively drawn away by the gel and then vented through the open structure of the spring unit beneath it, so the sleeping surface stays noticeably cooler through the night. The soft-to-medium feel means it offers a gentler initial sink than a true medium mattress, while the springs underneath still prevent excessive sagging through the hips and shoulders, keeping the spine supported even on a softer setting. This makes it particularly well suited to side sleepers who need extra give at the pressure points, as well as anyone who has previously found memory foam mattresses too hot to sleep on comfortably.
The mattress arrives rolled and boxed for easy delivery and setup, moving easily through narrow hallways and staircases thanks to its compact packaging, and it supports a maximum user weight of 120kg. As with any rolled mattress, allow 24–48 hours after unboxing for it to fully expand before assessing the final feel, and rotate it every three months to encourage even wear across the spring and gel layers.
