In September 2022, Mattress Online was named Best Online Retailer by Interiors Monthly and in November 2022, it was crowned Medium Sized Business of the Year at the Yorkshire Post Business Excellence Awards.

Development team manager Kirsty Mullen has also been shortlisted for Young Digital and Tech Professional of the Year 2023.

The business saw turnover leap during the pandemic fuelled by stay-at-home spending on DIY and homeware, going from £19m in 2019/2020 to £37.5m in 2020/2021.

Turnover for the 2021/2022 financial year was £29m.
