![]() The Ultima is designed to channel the air through the mattress for a sleep that's 2C cooler than the Elite. You can't feel a variation in the firmness on the mattress surface, but the Ultima feels like it provides the right amount of support all over, from edge to edge. Like the Elite, this mattress includes zoned foam that directs extra support to the areas that need it most – the neck, shoulders, hips and legs. It has more of a feel of a pocket-sprung mattress than a memory foam one – you definitely sleep 'on' rather than 'in' it, and the top surface doesn't really mould to your form at all. The top surface is pleasantly cushioned, and the overall feel is nice and buoyant. We'd probably recommend the Firm more to those who like to sleep on their back, as it can cause slightly achy shoulders if you lie on your side – although it's all up to personal preference really, and of course there's also medium or soft versions available. (Remember too, if you pick the wrong firmness level, Brook + Wilde will swap it out for a different one during the 100 night trial period.) Having tested both the Elite Firm and the Ultima Firm, we found the Ultima noticeably firmer than the Elite, although an 'Extra Firm' option has been sporadically available on the B+W site, so it could be that the ratings have shifted. For the Firm, there's very little give in the sleep surface – we'd say it's a 9 out of 10 for firmness. That said, we have absolutely no complaints about the comfort levels on offer here. It's difficult, when lying on the mattress, to fully appreciate all those layers. Brook + Wilde Ultima mattress review: comfort ![]() In fact, it's almost a shame to cover it all up with a sheet. The robust feeling handles feature an embroidered B+W monogram, and the whole look is certainly more premium than the Elite. Looks-wise, it's undeniably stylish, with smart white textured top cover that fits snugly, navy base and a silver border. Finally a layer of high-density Ecotex support foam provides a stable base, and there's a non-slip layer to keep your mattress in place on your bed frame. We're at layer 8 (hang in there guys) and it's time for more springs – a double layer of 2,000 larger pocket springs brings support and overall durability.
