Simba just dropped a 20% off mattress sale — and the savings are huge

Simba, one of the UK's leading mattress brands, just dropped an epic end of summer sale. Right now, there's 20% off select mattresses at Simba, including the Simba Earth Escape. That brings the price of a king size Simba Earth Escape down to £1,482 (was £1,899), which is an excellent saving on a luxury and sustainable hybrid mattress.

The Simba Earth Escape appears in our best mattress guide, thanks to its unique blend of eco-conscious credentials and outstanding support for back and stomach sleepers. Simba's Earth range launched earlier this year, boasting a strong focus on a mattress that is as good for the planet as it is for sleepers.

Crafted in a zero-waste factory, Simba's Earth range falls within the premium price category. However, this 20% off sale means you can save up to £451 on the Simba Earth Escape, which is a significant saving. Is this mattress right for you? If you're a back or stomach sleeper looking for a sustainable mattress with a high quality build and with a decent discount, then the answer is a resounding 'yes.'

Saving: up to £451 at Simba

Mattress summary: Made with natural and sustainable materials such as hemp, wool, and flax, this mattress excels in natural temperature regulation. You can expect a silky, smooth finish, thanks to the wool-viscose cover, which gives the mattress an indulgent, luxurious feel. While Simba markets this mattress as a medium-firm, the lead tester for our Simba Earth Escape mattress review rated it as 8/10 for firmness. That means it's best suited to back and stomach sleepers than side sleepers, who require a little more pressure relief. It measures 28cm tall, which is on the thicker side of a standard mattress and boasts six internal layers, including three layers of springs. Motion isolation is excellent, which is great news for anyone who shares a bed, while temperature regulation is reliable.

Benefits: Free VIP delivery and returns | 200-night trial | 10-year guarantee

Price history: This 20% off Simba mattress sale means you can save up to £451 on the Simba Earth Escape. That's an incredibly strong saving, but not the best we've ever seen — that was 25% off for May Day earlier this year. If you’re in the market for a new, eco-friendly mattress and can’t wait until the bigger winter sale events, we'd recommend snapping this bed up now.

What is a sustainable mattress?

A sustainable mattress is one that uses natural materials, like wool or plant-based latex, rather than toxic chemicals or materials that produce a lot of waste when they're used. They are also often recyclable, reducing the harm on the environment when it's time to dispose of them.

Sustainable mattresses are growing in popularity, and while they can sometimes come at a higher price-point, it's an investment that will last you a while, thanks to the durability of the materials used.
