Recommended For
The Ecosa Vital Mattress is an excellent hybrid option. The zoned support and airflow make it a comfortable and supportive medium firmness mattress at an attractive price point.
The Winkl mattress is an excellent fit for anyone looking for a memory foam model with enough support and comfort to relieve pressure on joints. The Winkl-flex comfort foam is designed to provide pressure relief on your back, hips, and shoulders while sleeping, while a base foam provides additional support and durability. The gel memory foam also keeps the mattress cool, making it the right choice for those who are often too warm at night.
What we like
There are several things to love about the Ecosa Vital mattress. Here are some of the features we love: * Excellent value, especially for a hybrid * Perimeter edge support * 7 zones of springs giving the right amount of support to each part of your body * Quick delivery * 100 day trial period and 15 year warranty
The Winkl Mattress has three foam layers to optimize the amount of bounce and softness while you sleep. This mattress has a “one-firmness-fits-most” model, so many sleepers find the medium-firmness a perfect balance. Winkl also offers exceptional and accessible customer service, making the experience of buying from them easy and stress-free. And with every purchase going towards protecting wildlife conservation efforts, you can feel good about where you’re spending your money.
Keep in Mind
Even though the Vital mattress is only 23cm and the most economic option from Ecosa it is relatively heavy. It comes conveniently delivered vaccum packed in a box but it is difficult to set up if you don't have help. The firmness is a fixed medium feel so it doesn't have the flexibility of adjustment by flipping the internal foam layers like the original Ecosa mattress.
While the “one-firmness-fits-most” design may optimize the level of comfort for many sleepers, it can also create challenges if your mattress preferences fall outside of the balance. If you prefer especially hard or soft mattresses, this may not be the best choice for you.

  • 4cm Tranquil Foam
  • 1cm Transition Foam
  • 12cm 7 Zone Pocket Springs
  • Recycled Felt

Comfort Info
Pincore holes in the memory foam allow for ultra-breathability. Proudly carbon neutral. All carbon produced to create and deliver the Vital Mattress is offset via Green Story.
The Winkl's extreme comfort comes from its exclusive Winkl-flex foam. Designed and specially formulated to provide the perfect balance of softness, bounce and pressure relief for your joints, it has been described as similar to that of sleeping on a giant marshmallow. The high quality Gel memory foam contours to your body shape, minimises partner disturbance and keeps you cool while you sleep. It's designer outer cover looks sharp and is removable and machine washable.
Support Info
Ecosa's best-selling memory foam combines with 7 zoned pocket springs. The pocket springs are zoned along the body to ensure better alignment and support where you need it, so you can have a pain-free sleep. These pocket springs are individually wrapped coils that move independently to contour to your body, and firmer springs are used along the perimeter of the mattress for reinforced edge support.
The Winkl's support (base) layer is designed to provide long term durability and unparalelled support for back hip and shoulders.
Comfort Specs
No Disturbance technology means you can have undisturbed sleep, no matter how much you or your sleeping buddy moves in their sleep. The combination of Air Memory Foam with pincore holes and zoned pocket springs allows for air to flow freely throughout all layers of the Vital Mattress, leaving you with a breathable mattress and an ultra-cool night's sleep.
Winkl materials are hypo allergenic & dustmite resistant. Certified free from harmful substances according to leading international standards (CertiPUR-US & OEKO-TEX). Free from chemical fire retardants and free from chemical based glues meaning you and your loved ones will sleep safe.
Support Specs
Tranquil Foam is a pressure relieving comfort foam to support you through the night. The Transition Foam alleviates the reactive force of the pocket springs and enhances the no partner disturbance. Pocket Spring with 7 zones of support for each part of the body, supports your spine and cushions pressure points. Recycled Felt is a protective layer for the pocket springs, made from 100% recycled materials. Finally, reinforced firm foam supports and protects the pocket springs.
A supportive base foam layer offers durability and support for all sleepers. Backed by a 10-year warranty - that's just 32c a night to sleep on a queen.
Fabric Specs
The Vital Mattress cover is OceanCycle certified, meaning up to 120 plastic bottles were collected from the ocean and repurposed into the cover. This cover may be removed and machine washed. Simply zip the top off and pop it in your washing machine.
Removable machine washable outer cover. OEKO-TEX approved. 400 GSM. 70% TENCEL® cotton, 30% Polyester blend.
