While the mattress is rated medium-plush, some describe their mattresses as on the firm side in terms of comfort.
The Tontine memory foam has 3 comfort layers. Here are the details for The Tontine Memory Foam Mattress:
Cover Layer: The cover is light weight and machine washable. It is also very breathable so it doesn't restrict cooling.
Layer 2: The first comfort layer is gel infused memory foam that comforts pressure points and keeps things cool. Its softer response will allow for a subtle contour.
Layer 3: The second comfort layer is high density foam that acts as a transitional layer between the really soft layer on the surface and the more firm layer below. It continues to relieve pressure points, but it also cradles the spine.
Layer 4: The durable foam is the last layer that further aligns the spine and provides firm support.
Both of these mattresses get good initial reviews from customers, with these mattresses fitting both firm and soft preferences.
See the above firmness chart. The latex version of the mattress is rated as a medium-firm, but it closer to a firm mattress, while the memory foam version is closer to a medium firmness. The memory foam is better for lighter folks and side sleepers, while the latex is better for back and stomach sleepers.
Both of these mattresses may provide good back pain relief initially as long as the right mattress is selected for your body.
Because of the gel infusion in the top comfort layers of the mattresses, these mattresses should sleep cool for most sleepers.
Tontine mattresses are ideal for those looking for a budget-friendly option or temporary mattress.
I got a Tontine memory foam mattress for my spare room, and all the guests that have slept on it have commented about how comfortable they found it. One of my relatives has a really sore back, and after sleeping on the memory foam mattress for a couple of nights said his back wasn't sore when he woke up in the morning. Needless to say, he's now getting a Tontine memory foam mattress in a box of his own!
I just had to share my 10 year old daughters thoughts when i asked her how her new mattress was. "It supports all of my body when I’m sleeping. When I laid on it for my first night I was impressed of how comfy and supportive it was on my back. Sleepovers are so much fun because they all fight over who should sleep on the bed. When I lay in it feels like I’m riding on a fluffy unicorn."
This mattress in a box has been the best purchase I have made for a long time ! I was hesitant at first about purchasing it, but I did and I have never felt so comfortable in my bed for a long time. I’m sleeping better than ever before and even the hubby has found it great, he is noticing he is rolling around a lot less and waking up with less back pain than before. This was hands down the best purchase I've ever made. Well done Tontine
I heard about the Tontine Memory Foam mattress from a friend who said it might help with my bad back. Well, she was absolutely right! From the very first night, I slept very well and woke up in the morning with not a hint of pain. I should have changed my mattress years ago but just couldn't be bothered. Ordering on line was so easy and the mattress was delivered next day.
I have been a restless sleeper for many years with constantly moving around trying to get comfortable. I have bought countless toppers, underlays and special pillows to help with my restless sleeping but nothing has worked until i tried out this memory foam mattress. My partner and i have been sleeping on it in a king size for a few weeks now and i have found his snoring to be less when he falls asleep and i have found that i wake up in the same position i feel asleep in and i feel so much better getting out of bed. This mattress is looking to be a very worth wild investment! loving it so far :)
Amazing mattress! My wife and I replaced our Sleepmaker pocket spring mattress with the Tontine Latex and we are loving the uninterrupted blissful sleep. The Tontine mattress is super comfortable, cool to sleep on and best of all, there is no partner disturbance. Thank you Tontine.

Wonderful to sleep under....light, but still keeps you warm.
I've been using the mattress for about a month now and I have to say that I'm very happy with the purchase.
The mattress is very firm so it takes a bit of getting used to. I like the firmness. I also liked how the mattress arrived rolled up in a box. It was easy to manage on my own.
I bought a single mattress for my 10yo who has always hated going to bed...he's loving his comfy new mattress and is sleeping so well that I've bought the queen size now for myself!
Love these mattresses! I bought one for myself last year and now one for my son. Highly recommend!
A memory foam mattress, which has no memory.
Second night sleeping on this Mattress. Best Mattress I have ever have ever slept on, aside from a Waterbed.
I have been using this mattress for almost two weeks now. To be honest, I’m undecided at this stage whether I will keep it. The only reason for this is because being a side sleeper, I am feeling it to be quite firm however I will give it more time. Despite the firmness, it is a quality mattress and if you’re someone who likes a firm feel, I would definitely recommend that you consider the Tontine.
Absolutely love it. It’s honestly the best mattress I have used in years. It keeps me cool through the night and my back pain has lessened significantly.
Love the mattress. Super efficient shipping. Was disappointed that it unrolled itself slowly and didn't just explode out of the box
Couldn't be happier!
Whilst the Choice magazine rating influenced my choice the mattress was too hard. The return was gracefully handled.
Good value and very happy with the product.
Absolutely love this Mattress, no more aches and pains like sleeping on a coil mattress. Love how there is no disturbance from partner as well.. Its firm ,but just right ,just love going to bed at night and it's great that can wash the cover. Highly recommended
The most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on. I struggle to leave it every morning. Tip - do not start cutting the plastic until the mattress is on the bed frame.
I love getting my bed through the post! I loved the mattress expanding before my eyes and I love that it is 100x more comfy than I expected.
