Englander Boston Extra Firm Review
The Englander Boston Extra Firm has a very firm feel, and won’t be to everyone’s taste. Nevertheless, it has a 7 zone pocket spring system, and offers very good support.
Purchase and delivery
This mattress can be ordered online, and delivery is available to most major cities, Australia-wide (see full delivery information in our ‘Delivery’ section below). It can also be purchased through any of Beds n Dreams stores across Australia.
The Englander Boston Extra Firm presents nicely with a cool, fashionable vibe. It uses a white, grey, and purple colour theme as well as a model name embroidery at its base.
Comfort and support
This mattress has a comfort layer that consists of a bamboo stretch knit fabric and gel infused visco elastic memory foam. This gives very modest pressure relief, and feels noticeable firm and hard.
As you would expect, we rated the Englander Boston Extra Firm as an ‘extra-firm’ feel and a 9 / 10 on the firmness scale. Please note that our firmness ratings are just a guide and they do not necessarily relate to comfort.
The spring system used in the Englander Boston Extra Firm is a ‘7 zone micro pocket spring system‘. This spring unit feels stable and sturdy, and and should accomodate people of all sizes. It offers very good back support and responds to normal sleep movements well.
The finer details
In terms of build quality and craftsmanship, the Englander Boston Extra Firm is excellent, given its price. It comes with side handles to assist in transport, and its quality and finishings are sound.
Partner disturbance is minimal, and edge support is sound, thanks to its ‘360 Foam Box Support’. It’s worth noting here also that this mattress is well backed with a 10 year warranty.
What bed base should I use?
As with most mattresses, we recommend this mattress to be used with a bed base with solid slats (not flexible/posture slats), such as the Atlantis Bed Base.
Use of an unsupportive mattress foundation will usually void the mattress warranty.
Furthermore, we do not recommend this mattress to be used with an adjustable (electric) bed base as this may void the warranty. Here is our full list of mattresses that are compatible with an adjustable bed base.
It’s worth noting here that mattress firmness, performance, and durability will vary with different bed bases.
Available sizes
The Englander Boston Extra Firm is available in 4 sizes (king, queen, double and king single) so it should suit most sleeping arrangements.
Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2024.
Final verdict
The Englander Boston Extra Firm is a good option for those who prefer an unmistakable firm feel. It is well made and comes with a 10 year warranty.
