The Spring & Spruce Mattress Maid, a cleaning gadget priced at £44.99, has earned five-star reviews from shoppers who say it makes mattresses and sofas "like new" again. Available on Yimbly and Amazon, the device uses powerful suction, a vibrating brush roller and a UV-C light to remove dust, odours and allergens, according to the brand.
What the Gadget Offers
The Mattress Maid is designed to be "lightweight and easy to use", and is billed as ideal for allergy sufferers as well as homes with pets or children. It can be used on bedding and upholstery, helping to refresh everything from duvets, pillows and blankets to sofas and rugs.
On Amazon, the gadget has earned an average rating of 4.4 out of five stars based on nearly 200 reviews to date. It is positioned as a more budget-friendly alternative compared to mattress cleaning gadgets from big brands, such as the Hoover HMC4 4-in-1 Mattress Vacuum Cleaner, which is currently on offer for £89 down from £119.99 at Argos.
Shopper Reviews
One shopper praised the gadget in an Amazon review: "This is an amazing product. Makes mattresses and sofas spotless. Vacuums up debris and pet dander effortlessly." They added: "Also very light and easy to use, and a generous size for coverage. Easy to see the amount it collects. A must have for everyone."
Another said: "Fantastic - thought my mattress was clean until I used this. Amazing item, highly recommend." A third customer echoed: "Easy to use, I was amazed at the dust removed from my mattress, also good on cushions. Easy to empty. Great quality and value for money."
Someone else wrote: "Very good - removes dust that a normal vacuum cleaner would not pick up." However, some shoppers felt that it could be more effective on their mattress, with one reviewer remarking: "Need to press firm against the mattress, especially if it's deep or heavily buttoned." Another customer fed back: "Doesn't get into crevices on mattress." A few reviewers also felt that other aspects of its design had room for improvement, with someone else commenting: "First impressions are it's great but the power lead could be a little longer."
Alternative Options
Lakeland offers a Handheld Mattress Vacuum for £54.99, which is also equipped with a UV light aimed at eliminating germs and bacteria. For households seeking a buy that will help to get stains out, the cheapest option from bestselling brand Shark is the StainStriker Stain & Spot Cleaner for £149.99, which can tackle food and drink spills or other messes while also eliminating odours, according to the brand.
