Our verdict on each
Origin
Origin suits a US buyer who wants a deep hybrid mattress with a long trial and a lifetime warranty. The Origin Adapt Hybrid in queen is $599, the trial runs 365 nights and returns cost $0, so the risk sits with the trial rather than the cheque.

Pros and cons
Origin
Pros
- The trial runs 365 nights from the day the mattress arrives, so you can judge the feel across months rather than a few nights.
- Warranty cover is for a lifetime for the original purchaser, so a long-lived mattress keeps its cover.
- The Origin Adapt Hybrid in queen is $599, and delivery anywhere in America is free.
Cons
- Warranty cover is for the original purchaser, and claims have to be raised while the mattress is in the United States.
- At 30.48 cm deep, the Origin Adapt Hybrid wants a supportive base and enough clearance at the door to get it into the room.
- The queen figure of $599 is printed beside a higher struck-through figure for the same Origin Adapt Hybrid, so the entry price and the list price differ.
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
Origin
Who it suits
- A buyer in the US who wants a full season inside a mattress trial before committing.
- Original purchasers who plan to keep the same mattress for years and want cover that lasts as long as they do.
- Sleepers who like natural materials, with wool and bamboo alongside memory foam in the build.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers outside the US, where warranty claims are tied to the mattress being in the United States at the time of the claim.
- Shoppers who want old mattress collection and disposal arranged for them, as Origin does not take that on.
- Anyone hoping to pass the warranty to a later owner, since cover is for the original purchaser.
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
Origin
What does an Origin queen mattress cost at entry?+
The Origin Adapt Hybrid in queen is $599, shown next to a higher struck-through price for the same mattress on its own page. That is the figure a buyer commits to at entry. Delivery is free anywhere in America, and if the trial ends badly the refund is in full, with returns charged at $0.
How long is the trial, and what happens if I change my mind?+
The trial runs 365 nights and begins the day the mattress is delivered rather than the day it is ordered. The returns policy allows 365 days to send it back for a full refund, guaranteed, with no hidden charges. That is a generous window rather than a technicality.
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.
