Product Information

Full details

The Legend Ortho 2000 Extra Firm Mattress is designed for sleepers who require rigid orthopaedic support and a stable sleep surface to maintain spinal alignment. Its primary benefit is the combination of 2000 responsive pocket springs and reinforced edges that prevent sagging, making it ideal for those who prefer firm comfort; however, the substantial 30cm depth and extra-firm feel may feel too rigid for those accustomed to plush, sink-in pillow-top mattresses.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this mattress suitable for back sleepers?

Yes, the extra-firm support and pocket spring system are specifically designed to help maintain proper spinal alignment, which is often recommended for back sleepers.

Does this mattress need to be flipped?

Yes, this is a double-sided mattress, and it should be flipped and rotated regularly to extend its lifespan and maintain its firmness.

What kind of bed base works best?

This mattress performs best on a solid platform top base or a sturdy slatted base with a maximum gap of 7cm between slats.

Is the fabric hypoallergenic?

The mattress features a cotton-rich cover, which is naturally breathable, though it is not specifically marketed as hypoallergenic.

How deep is the mattress?

The Legend Ortho 2000 is 30cm deep, which is standard for high-quality pocket spring mattresses.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 1-year guarantee and a 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Troubleshooting

Mattress feels too firm after initial setup

All new mattresses require a 'settling-in' period of 2 to 4 weeks for the comfort layers to adjust to your body weight and for the fillings to distribute evenly.

Visible indentations where I sleep

Regularly flipping and rotating the mattress will allow the fillings to recover and ensure even distribution of pressure, which eliminates localized body impressions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional orthopaedic support for spinal alignment
  • Double-sided construction maximizes durability
  • Reinforced edges prevent rolling off the bed
  • Breathable cotton-rich surface cover
  • High pocket spring count for localized comfort

Cons

  • Extra firm feel may be too hard for some sleepers
  • 30cm depth requires deep-fitted sheets
  • Heavy construction makes flipping and rotating physically demanding

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Setup: As a heavy, non-vacuum-packed mattress, ensure you have assistance when moving it to the bedroom. It should be placed on a flat, solid base or a sprung slatted base with slats no more than 7cm apart.
  • Compatibility: It works well with most standard bed frames, but ensure the frame dimensions accommodate the 30cm depth.
  • Care: To maintain the integrity of the mattress, rotate and flip it every 3 months for the first year, then every 6 months thereafter. Use a mattress protector to keep the cotton-rich fabric clean from moisture and dust.
