Our verdict on each
Layla
Layla is the pick for US and Canadian sleepers who want time on a mattress before they commit, with an in-home trial of 120 days and free delivery. The lifetime warranty is the clincher for anyone keeping a bed a long stretch, though firmness choices stop at soft and medium firm.

Pros and cons
Layla
Pros
- An in-home trial of 120 days, against a site middle of 60 nights for trial length.
- A lifetime warranty, putting Layla at 1 of 73 brands on that measure.
- Free delivery, plus a return fee of $0 and a return window of 30 days on bedding.
Cons
- Firmness stops at soft and medium firm, so a buyer after a firmer feel has no ladder to climb here.
- The range covers memory foam and hybrid only, which leaves latex and innerspring shoppers with nothing at this store.
- A lifetime warranty is a headline figure, so the exclusions decide what it is worth.
The Little Green Sheep
Pros
- A long trial of 100 days nights at home, well above the 100 typical of the mattress ranking.
- Return postage is free at £0, so a trial costs nothing extra if the fit is wrong.
- Support runs on email, phone and chat, giving more ways to reach a person than most brands in the ranking.
Cons
- The 5 years warranty is below the 10 across the mattress ranking, and well short of lifetime cover.
- Delivery reaches GB only, so buyers outside the UK are not covered.
- Firmness covers medium and firm, so there is no soft or medium-firm option.
Who each suits
Layla
Who it suits
- Anyone still choosing between builds, since Layla offers memory foam and hybrid and a firmness ladder of soft and medium firm.
- Buyers who want a long window before deciding, since the in-home trial runs 120 days.
- Shoppers in US and CA who would rather order the whole bed in one place, since bedding spans sheets, duvets and pillows.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want to decide quickly: Coop Sleep Goods runs a trial of 100 days nights, a shorter commitment than Layla's 120 nights.
- Shoppers who want a shorter trial than 120 nights can line up Newton Baby, which lists 100 nights.
The Little Green Sheep
Who it suits
- UK households shopping a natural-material mattress with a long home trial
- Parents furnishing a cot bed who want cotton and wool bedding in the same order
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone outside GB, who will not find delivery
- Buyers who want a soft or medium-firm feel, since firmness covers medium and firm
- Anyone after a very long warranty, given 5 years against lifetime cover

Questions about each
Layla
How long is the Layla mattress trial?+
Layla's in-home trial runs 120 nights, and the company lists an in-home trial period of 120 days. Delivery is free, so the cost of putting a mattress in a spare room for a test run is the mattress itself. Coop Sleep Goods and Newton Baby list shorter windows.
What is the Layla warranty length?+
The warranty is lifetime, the longest figure in the warranty rankings, where Layla holds position 1 of 73 brands. Bedding is separate, with a return window of 30 days and a return fee of $0. The terms are worth reading before relying on the headline length.
The Little Green Sheep
How long is the trial period on the mattress?+
The Little Green Sheep offers a trial of 100 days nights at home, which is longer than the 100 across the mattress ranking. The return window is the same length at 100 days, so the two limits do not clash. Sleeping on it for months is a realistic option here.
What does returning a mattress cost?+
Return postage is free, listed at £0. That matters more for a mattress than for smaller bedding, because the cost of sending one back would usually fall on the buyer. Alongside a trial of 100 days nights, the free return removes most of the risk from trying it.
