Independent springs for flexible support
With 1,000 independent pocket springs, the mattress flexes easily with your profiling or adjustable bed. These springs also work separately to provide responsive support and help to reduce motion transfer. The individual springs allow you to comfortably shift positions through the night. Whether you’re reading, watching TV or relaxing, the Mallow contours to your body and motion for the right level of support.
Luxurious layers built for comfort
The mattress is built with layers of natural Dartmoor sheep wool and cotton fibre layers, providing a breathable, moisture‑wicking surface. The wool from Dartmoor sheep adds a touch of premium natural comfort and enhances airflow, while the cotton fibre offers softness and a cosy feel.
The layers in the Mallow help regulate temperature while keeping you comfortable during sleep, ensuring a restful sleep across seasons. It’s particularly suitable for those seeking a mattress that blends performance with natural comfort.
Designed for adaptability and longevity
At approximately 220 mm and a medium‑firm rating of 4, the Mallow mattress strikes a balance between comfort, breathability and support—ideal for a range of users.
Its structure makes it suitable for adjustable bed frames, yet it works equally well on a standard flat base, giving you flexibility if you change bed settings later. Backed by the 3-year warranty, the Mallow ensures you get a restful night’s sleep for the long term.
Our Verdict
The Mallow Adjustable Mattress offers layers of natural wool and cotton with 1000 pocket springs for those seeking a supportive yet soft mattress. Its use of pocket springs and natural fillings makes it a strong contender for everyday comfort and breathability.
If you have a higher budget and want a thicker mattress, the Opera Emporia mattress is designed with layers of luxury cotton, natural Dartmoor sheep wool, and hand-teased horse tail. While the Mallow is built with medium firmness, the Emporia gives you the option to choose between soft, medium or firm. Although pricier, the Emporia comes with a thicker 30 cm depth, more layers of cotton and wool, a greater number of springs and a 15-year warranty.
For an exceptionally luxurious experience, you can opt for the Opera Vicuña mattress, which sits at the top end of the Opera range. It features the finest natural materials, including rare alpaca Vicuña wool, Dartmoor sheep wool, luxury cotton and hand-teased horse tail wrapped in a 100% Ecru wool cover. The Vicuña comes with 2000 pocket springs and provides the option to choose between soft, medium or firm. It is best suited to users with a more flexible budget who want indulgent comfort. While the Vicuna offers luxurious layers of softness, the Mallow delivers a balanced blend of comfort, quality and value.
Taken together, the Opera Mallow remains a standout choice for users seeking natural materials, responsive support and adjustable-bed compatibility—without stepping into the ultra-luxury price bracket. It provides a well-rounded alternative to ultra-premium models like the Emporia and Vicuña.
