Versatile and adaptable, the main feature of zip and link mattresses is their ability to provide different levels of comfort within the same bed. Perhaps your partner requires an extra firm mattress, while you prefer a softer level of support. As the mattresses are essentially separate, you can pick and choose which comfort rating you would prefer and still share a bed with your partner. They’re also really easy to transport too. Perhaps you live at the top of a narrow flight of stairs which a larger mattress would not fit through – zip and link mattresses are made up of two single mattresses, so can be delivered much easier than a traditional super king mattress.
Zip and link beds are comprised of a bed frame, divan bed base, or ottoman bed paired with a zip and link mattress. Zip and link mattresses are an innovation in the mattress world, especially for couples with different sleep needs and preferences.
Side sleepers require a different mattress firmness to stomach and back sleepers. And so, if you and your partner have different preferred sleep positions, compromise used to be the only option. But with zip and link mattresses, two sleepers sharing a bed can tailor their sleep surface to their needs and preferences.
Zip and link beds essentially work in the same way a normal bed does. A zip and link bed is made up of a bed and a mattress. But unlike standard mattresses, these mattresses are made up of two separate mattresses that can be zipped together to form one mattress that tailors to two individuals.
Each side of a zip and link mattress is customisable to the sleeper’s needs. This is a great solution for couples that disagree on mattress firmness.
Are you part of a couple with different sleep needs? Perhaps you live in a high-rise building and have always dreamed of having a bigger bed and mattress? Or maybe your mid-terrace makes transporting mattresses up to the third floor a nightmare?
Whatever your individual scenario may be, a king size or super king zip and link mattress may be the answer you’ve been searching for. Given that these mattresses can be zipped apart and back together with ease. This makes navigating tight corridors, and awkward spaces in your home much easier to do.
And for couples, a zip link mattress could be the key to unlocking more harmonious nights with your other half. Find out why in our dedicated zip and link mattress guide.
These mattresses are a versatile option for couples sharing a bed. Our collection expands to orthopaedic zip and link mattresses (great for anyone suffering with back pain or in need of a little more support while they sleep) and even iGel temperature regulating zip and link mattresses.
We also offer eco latex zip and link mattresses as well as Sealy and Hypnos zip and link mattress designs. When it comes to finding an ideal sleep solution, Bensons has you covered with a range of innovative designs tailored to target various sleep needs and wants. Plus, with options to suit every budget, there’s a sleep solution for everyone.
When choosing your ideal mattress, it’s best to have a good idea of what you’re looking for in a mattress first.
Orthopaedic mattresses have been specifically designed to provide a firmer sleep surface, delivering targeted support for both your back and your joints. Discover whether a zip link orthopaedic mattress is the right option for you and your partner in our What is an orthopaedic mattress? blog post.
Temperature regulating mattresses such as those in our iGel zip and link collection have been designed to help hot and cold sleepers keep their body temperature optimal throughout the night. This helps to minimise sleep disruption caused by a change in temperature through the night. Learn about the benefits of a temperature regulating mattress to find out whether this is the right sleep solution for you.
Latex mattresses are naturally cooling. Again, this can be a handy feature if you are a hot sleeper. But latex might not be the right material choice for cold sleepers. Find out if a latex zip and link mattress is a good choice for you in our Latex mattress buying guide.
Once you’ve decided which mattress best fits with yours and your partner’s needs, select your preferred mattress comfort rating for each side of the mattress. You can learn everything you need to know about the right mattress firmness for different sleeping positions in our dedicated guide.
And if you’re really particular about which side of the bed you sleep on, you won’t need to worry about selecting the wrong side. Our zip and link mattresses can be rotated (just like regular mattresses) so that you preferred firmness is on the correct side of the bed for you.
At Bensons, all of our zip and link mattresses are specially designed so that the zips that join the two mattresses together do not interfere with your comfort while you’re sleeping.
The zips are connected to each of the sides of the mattress just beneath the mattress’ edge. While you may be vaguely conscious of the seam, it shouldn’t impact your sleep quality. There is only a slight break in the surface of the mattress where the two halves join together.
The zip itself shouldn’t cause any discomfort or impact your sleep in any way.
At Bensons, we offer this type of mattress in two sizes.
If you’re looking for a king size zip and link bed, our king size zip and link mattresses are ideal. A king size mattress measures 150cm x 200cm (W x L).
And for those in need of a little more space in bed, a zip and link super king bed might be a better option. Our super king zip and link mattresses measure 180cm x 200cm (W x L) which is a generous 30cm (or 15cm per sleeper) more sleep surface.
