Silentnight Travis Miracoil Double Sided Mattress im Test

The Silentnight Travis Miracoil Double Sided is a 22cm continuous spring mattress with a medium-firm feel and an upholstered sleep surface on both faces, made in the UK and sold through Argos. It is one of the most reviewed mattresses on argos.co.uk, rated 4.6 out of 5 by more than 3,600 buyers, as read on 5 October 2026.

How it is built

Miracoil is Silentnight’s continuous spring system, and Argos lists 782 springs. The National Bed Federation’s Bed Advice UK guide describes a continuous unit as one length of wire “knitted” into interwoven springs, with a softer gauge and smaller coils than open coil, and places these mattresses in the mid-market. Silentnight zones the unit to give firmer support under the hips, and the coil runs to the edge, so you can sleep near the side without rolling off.

Each face has Eco Comfort fibre fillings made from recycled plastic bottles under a quilted damask cover. Because both sides are upholstered, the Argos product page asks you to flip and rotate it regularly, which spreads the wear across two surfaces.

Sizes and prices at Argos

Prices were regular, with no sale running. The double costs less than the small double, so check both before choosing the narrower size. There is no super king. The mattress arrives flat rather than rolled.

Who it suits

Argos buyers score its firmness 3.9 out of 5, firmer than most mid-range Silentnight models, which suits back and stomach sleepers and anyone who dislikes sinking in. Because the springs are linked, movement travels further across the bed than on a pocket sprung mattress, so a couple with very different sleep times may notice each other more.

The 5-year Silentnight guarantee is long for a mattress at this price, and Argos’s 100-night comfort promise lets you exchange it once for another mattress of the same size.
