Zinus Double Mattress, Pocket Spring, 1cm Foam over 19cm Springs, 20cm
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Zinus double mattress costs £95.99 and is rated 4.5 stars from 169 ratings, with pocket springs, a one centimetre comfort layer and a twenty centimetre depth.
It takes eighth because it is the only mattress in this article that states its construction in measurements — one centimetre of foam over nineteen of pocket springs — on a smaller sample than the leaders.
How those 169 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.5 stars.
