If you are looking for a well-balanced option, you should read this REM-Fit 600 Elite mattress review. This sits at the top of REM-Fit’s range and it’s a popular choice among couples and senior people.
According to the maker, it’s a big improvement when compared to the REM-Fit 600 mattress although the two options don’t differ too much in pricing. This of course is another boxed mattress and it will be shipped directly to your door. Mine arrived almost a week ago so it’s time now to move to the full review below.
Materials & Construction
This mattress is made of 4 layer plus the cover. In detail, these are:
- A RemCell foam layer that has an open-pore construction which allows the mattress to breathe. Moreover, it has excellent pressure-relieving properties.
- A memory foam layer that adds comfort and has the ability to reduce pressure points.
- A double layer of tall pocket springs (15.5cm). This type of spring is supportive but can also minimise motion transfer.
- A high-density foam layer that is the base of this mattress and can keep it all together.
The Elite 600 mattress measures 25cm in height and the picture below gives us a detailed look of the position of every layer.
Cover
The cover of this mattress is made of a breathable fabric that helps it to stay cool during the night. It’s actually made of Re-Ax fibres which are developed by their in-house engineering team. Besides the breathability, this cover is also very durable and feels nice to the touch. In terms of design, it’s identical to all the other REM-Fit mattresses so you should expect a sporty look.
The good news is that this is a removable cover so it’s quite easy to clean. You can actually pop it inside your washing machine at a low temperature. The bad news is that the people at REM-Fit didn’t add side handles which makes it way more difficult to move it. This is the only weakness here but other than that, this is a fantastic cover.
Comfort & Support
It’s time to continue with this REM-Fit 600 Elite mattress review and talk about how firm it is. This is a medium-firm mattress and if I use my virtual scale here, I would say it’s a 7.5 with 10 being really firm. Let me share now with you my experience with it during the past week.
Lying on my back, the mattress was well-balanced and the weight distribution was optimal. There were no pressure points and the support was great.
Turning to the side position, the springs reacted quickly and the mattress allowed my spine to align correctly. Support was adequate and there was no pain around my hips or shoulders.
Finally, moving to the stomach position, I felt that the mattress did a good job and my hips were well positioned. REM-Fit has found the sweet spot between comfort and support and I can say that this mattress is definitely an all-rounder.
Another field in which this mattress excels is edge support. Thanks to the foam side walls, you can get in and out of bed with ease. Also, the tall pocket springs can minimise motion transfer so couples won’t disturb each other during sleep.
Service
One of the main strengths of this mattress is the service that it’s packed with. When you buy from them, you will get a free delivery that takes between 1-3 working days. This is a fast service but that’s not all. Their mattresses are delivered by two couriers and the box will be placed in the room of your choice. Additionally, for an extra fee, you can have your old mattress removed. Just make sure you opt-in for this option during checkout. All these add-ons massively improve the customer experience and REM-Fit does a great job on this end.
When I ordered mine, I got what I was promised and the couriers were organised and polite. I did receive a text with my delivery slot and I was well informed about the whole process. Overall, I feel that they nailed it and their service is of the highest level.
Trial Period & Guarantee
If you don’t feel comfortable buying a mattress online, I have some good news for you. All their mattresses come with a 200-night trial period that gives you more than 6 months to try them at home. Returns are free and if for any reason, you feel that this mattress isn’t a good fit, you can return it and get your money back.
Furthermore, you will also get a 15-year guarantee that shows the quality of their products. This is impressive and the reality is that not many makers offer such a long policy. Overall, this is a superb package that won’t disappoint.
REM-Fit 600 Elite Mattress Review – The Verdict
It’s time now to complete this REM-Fit 600 Elite mattress review. After having slept on it for a week, I can say that this is one of the most well-balanced mattresses out there. It can offer you both comfort and support and it’s designed to sleep cool. If you add a fantastic support package and an affordable price tag, you have an option that should be very high on your list.
