Why choose a Nectar mattress?
Nectar mattresses are made for that cosy, ‘can’t wait to get into bed’ feeling, without forgetting the support your body needs through the night. The current range includes both memory foam and hybrid designs, so you can choose the feel that suits you best.
A Nectar mattress can offer:
Pressure-relieving memory foam that gently cushions your shoulders, hips and back
Hybrid options with pocket springs for extra bounce, airflow and edge support
A medium firm feel across the current range
Classic and Premier models to suit different comfort needs and budgets
Less motion transfer, ideal if you share your bed with a restless sleeper
Rolled and boxed delivery for easier setup
Long-term reassurance through Nectar’s trial and warranty offering
How to choose the right Nectar mattress
Choosing your Nectar mattress starts with one simple question: do you want a cosy, contouring feel, or would you prefer a little more bounce?
If you love the feeling of being gently cushioned, a Nectar memory foam mattress could be your perfect match. If you want that same comfort with added airflow and a more responsive feel, a Nectar hybrid mattress may be better suited to you.
From there, you can compare Nectar Classic and Premier models. Classic mattresses offer Nectar’s core comfort and support, while Premier models are designed for those who want a more upgraded sleep experience.
Nectar memory foam vs hybrid mattresses
Mattress type | How it feels | May suit you if |
Nectar Memory Foam Mattresses | Cosy, cushioned and body-hugging | You want pressure relief, less motion transfer and a classic memory foam feel |
Nectar Hybrid Mattresses | Cushioned on top, with more bounce underneath | You want memory foam comfort with pocket springs for added airflow, support and edge stability |
Memory foam is a lovely choice if you want your mattress to gently mould to your shape. It can help ease pressure on areas such as the shoulders and hips, while also reducing movement if your partner turns over during the night.
A Nectar hybrid mattress gives you the comfort of memory foam, with the added support of pocket springs. This can make the mattress feel easier to move on, while also helping air circulate through the mattress for a fresher night’s sleep.
Comparing Nectar Classic and Premier models
Model | How it feels | May suit you if |
Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress | A medium firm memory foam feel with 25cm depth | You want Nectar’s classic pressure-relieving comfort in an all-foam design |
Nectar Classic Hybrid Mattress | A medium firm hybrid feel with memory foam and pocket springs | You want cushioned comfort with more bounce, airflow and support |
Nectar Premier Memory Foam Mattress | A deeper memory foam feel with 28cm depth | You want a more premium Nectar memory foam mattress with extra depth |
Nectar Premier Hybrid Mattress | A more upgraded hybrid feel with memory foam and pocket springs | You want Premier comfort with a more responsive support system |
Nectar Kids’ Mattress | A medium firm kids’ mattress with memory foam and pocket springs | You’re choosing a supportive Nectar mattress for a child’s bedroom |
Nectar mattress firmness and sleeping position
The current Nectar range has a medium firm feel, giving you a good balance of comfort and support. That makes Nectar a great option for many different sleepers, but the right choice still depends on how you like to sleep.
Side sleepers often enjoy the pressure relief of memory foam, especially around the shoulders and hips. Back sleepers may prefer the steadier support of a medium firm Nectar mattress, particularly if they want comfort without sinking too deeply into the surface.
If you tend to get warm at night, a Nectar hybrid mattress may be worth a closer look. The pocket spring layer can help air move more freely through the mattress, while Premier models may offer extra comfort or cooling features depending on the design.

Buying guidance for Nectar mattresses
Nectar mattresses are all about comfort you can sink into, but the best fit depends on what you need from your bed. Before you choose, compare the current Nectar range by mattress type, depth, firmness, cooling features and delivery availability.
Which Nectar mattress is right for you?
Choosing the right Nectar mattress comes down to the feel you want from your bed.
If you love a cosy, cushioned sleep surface, a Nectar memory foam mattress is a good place to start. Memory foam gently moulds to your body, helping to relieve pressure around areas like the shoulders, hips and lower back. It’s also useful if you share a bed, as foam can help reduce the feeling of movement from the other side.
If you like the sound of memory foam but want a little more bounce, a Nectar hybrid mattress may be a better fit. Hybrid designs combine foam comfort layers with springs, giving you a mattress that still feels cushioned but is easier to move on and usually allows more airflow through the core.
For a more upgraded feel, compare the depth, comfort layers and cooling features across the range. A deeper mattress can feel more indulgent, while extra airflow or cooling materials may be worth prioritising if you tend to get warm at night.
Nectar mattress specifications and UK size guide
Before ordering, check both your bed frame and the dimensions listed for the individual mattress. Common UK mattress sizes are:
A deeper mattress will increase the overall height of your bed, so check your bed frame and fitted sheet depth, too.
Nectar mattress trial, warranty and certifications
One of the reasons Nectar has become so popular is the reassurance that comes with the brand. Nectar is known for offering a 365-night home trial and Forever Warranty on eligible mattresses, giving you time to settle into your new bed properly.
This can be especially helpful if you’re trying memory foam for the first time, as your body may need a little time to adjust to a different sleep surface.
Always check the latest trial, warranty and returns information on your chosen product before ordering, as terms can vary by model, retailer and promotion. Nectar mattresses may also include safety and material certifications such as CertiPUR-US and Oeko-Tex, so check the individual product details if certifications are important to you.
What to expect when your Nectar mattress arrives
Many Nectar mattresses arrive vacuum-packed, rolled and boxed, making it easier to get your new bed into the right room before you unroll it.
Once it’s in place, carefully remove the packaging and let the mattress expand. It may reach a usable shape within a few hours, but the foam layers can take longer to fully settle. Keep the room well ventilated while any new-mattress smell fades, and follow the care instructions supplied with your specific Nectar mattress.
If you’re moving from a traditional sprung mattress to Nectar memory foam, it may feel a little different at first. Memory foam responds to your body shape and can feel more cushioning, while Nectar hybrid models give you a little more bounce thanks to their spring layer.

Ask the expert about Nectar mattresses
Choosing a Nectar mattress is much easier once you know how the current range compares. Our product experts answer common questions about Nectar mattresses, including memory foam, hybrid support, firmness, cooling, setup and delivery.
Martin Seeley, Product Expert at MattressNextDay, answers questions about Nectar mattresses.
What type of mattress is a Nectar mattress?
Nectar mattresses are available as memory foam and hybrid designs. Nectar memory foam mattresses focus on cosy cushioning and pressure relief, while Nectar hybrid mattresses add pocket springs for a more responsive feel.
The current range includes Classic and Premier models, as well as a Nectar Kids Mattress.
Is a Nectar memory foam or hybrid mattress better?
It depends on the type of comfort you’re craving.
A Nectar memory foam mattress may suit you if you want close contouring, pressure relief and less motion transfer from the other side of the bed. A Nectar hybrid mattress may suit you if you want that cushioned Nectar feel with extra bounce, airflow and edge support from pocket springs.
What is the difference between Nectar Classic and Premier mattresses?
Classic models give you Nectar’s core comfort and support at a more accessible price point. Premier models offer a more upgraded feel, with extra depth or enhanced comfort features depending on the mattress.
Compare the individual product pages before buying, as depth, construction and delivery availability can vary by model.
How firm are Nectar mattresses?
The current Nectar range is medium firm, providing a balance of cushioning and support.
That said, firmness is personal. Your body weight, sleeping position and current mattress can all affect how firm a Nectar mattress feels to you.
Side sleepers may notice more cushioning around the shoulders and hips, while back sleepers may focus more on support through the lower back.
Are Nectar mattresses good for side sleepers?
Nectar mattresses can be a good option for side sleepers who want pressure relief around the shoulders and hips. Memory foam models are especially useful if you like a mattress that moulds closely to your shape.
If you sleep on your side but prefer more bounce and easier movement, compare Nectar hybrid models as well.
Are Nectar mattresses good for back sleepers?
Back sleepers often need a mattress that supports the lower back without feeling too hard at the surface. Nectar’s medium firm feel can be a good starting point because it balances cushioning with support.
If you want a steadier, more responsive surface, a Nectar hybrid mattress may feel more suitable than an all-foam model.
Are Nectar mattresses good for hot sleepers?
If you tend to feel warm in bed, compare the construction of each Nectar mattress before buying. Memory foam can feel cosier and more close-fitting, while hybrid models use pocket springs that can help air move more freely through the mattress.
Premier models may also include enhanced comfort or cooling features depending on the product, so check the individual mattress details.
Do Nectar mattresses come in a box?
Many Nectar mattresses are vacuum-packed, rolled and boxed for easier delivery and setup. Once your new mattress is in the right room, carefully remove the packaging and allow it to unroll and expand.
It may be usable within a few hours, but foam layers can take longer to fully settle. Keep the room ventilated and follow the care instructions provided with your specific mattress.
How long is the Nectar mattress trial?
Nectar is known for offering a 365-night home trial on eligible mattresses. That gives you plenty of time to settle in and decide whether the mattress suits your sleep style.
Check the latest trial and returns terms on your chosen Nectar mattress before ordering, as the exact conditions can depend on the model and seller.
Can I get next-day delivery on a Nectar mattress?
Free next-day delivery is available across the UK mainland on eligible in-stock Nectar mattresses at MattressNextDay. Delivery availability depends on the individual product and your location, so check the delivery information shown for your chosen Nectar mattress before placing your order.
