Why are mattresses so expensive in 2025? Prices are on the rise, and these are the things driving them up

When you start investigating your next mattress purchase, one of your first thoughts might be “crikey, mattresses are getting more expensive”. And you’re justified in that thought. A budget double mattress in 2025 costs about £250, while premium double mattresses are in excess of £600 for a double. Turn back the clock 10 years and you a budget mattress was just £100 and a mid-range mattress for £300.

So yes, mattresses are broadly speaking getting more expensive. And the UK mattress market is set to grow. Last year the UK mattress market was valued at £970 million and it is projected to reach an astonishing £1.55 billion over the next 10 years.
