Double Mattress Pocket Spring

Pocket-sprung mattresses are filled with natural materials such as horsehair, cotton and wool. These materials are sustainable and help to keep your mattress breathable, perfect if you're suffering from asthma or hayfever.

The springs are separate from each other, reducing the "roll together" effect that can occur when using other mattresses. You can modify them to suit your preferences by altering the spring count and the gauge of wire.

Enhanced Pressure Relief

Contrary to conventional mattresses, in which the entire surface reacts to the weight equally, pocket springs react individually. This individualized response ensures that areas of the body that are most susceptible to pressure build-up, such as the hips and shoulders receive specific support. The result is lower back strain and a more relaxing sleeping experience.

In addition, the independent motion of each spring decreases motion transfer. This is especially beneficial for couples sleeping together, as it keeps the person who is sleeping from disturbing their partner during sleep. This feature is also offered in some hybrid pocket sprung models that are constructed with the combination of pocket springs and memory foam.

For the most effective double mattress pocket springs choose models that use high-quality materials. Also, look for natural fillings like wool, cotton and horsehair, in the upholstery layers over the springs. These materials are known to be tough and breathable. Look for a minimum of 3000gsm to ensure a luxurious sleeping experience.

Another consideration when selecting a double mattress pocket spring is the number of springs used in the construction. The number of springs used will influence the level of body support, so it is crucial to find the ideal balance between firmness and comfort. A low number of springs could be uncomfortable and soft, whereas high counts can lead to excessive stimulation.

It is also important to consider the quality of the springs themselves. For instance, select a pocket spring mattress with high-tensile steel wire which is more durable and stable than a cheap coil design. Avoid mattresses that have more than 3000 springs. The extra springs can cause muscles to be over-stimulated, leading to body impressions or sagging.

As a general rule double mattress pocket springs require frequent turning and flipping in order to prevent them from sagging over time. This is especially crucial during the first six months, when it is essential to have a regular schedule adhered to. After six months, you can cut the frequency to every nine to 12 weeks. This will help evenly distribute the wear and tear of the mattress, and extend its life span.

Support for Tailored Customers

In contrast to open coil mattresses, which can often have uneven support due to their construction, every spring in a double mattress pocket sprung is enclosed in a fabric pocket. Each spring is able to separate from its neighbors. This allows the mattress to adapt to your body's contours and provide more individualized support. This can help to relieve pressure points and encourage the alignment of your spine.

These mattresses provide a higher level of support and a higher level of breathability compared to other types of mattresses. This is because the springs are enclosed in fabric pockets, which aid in regulating the interior of the mattress. In the end, you can have an affluent and comfortable night's sleep.

The materials used in a mattress can affect the way it feels. Most mattresses are made of natural fibres such as bamboo, wool and animal hair, whereas cheaper models may make use of polyester and synthetic fillings. The most sustainable choice is a natural mattress that is free of harmful chemicals.

It is important to keep in mind that the number of springs is only one aspect when it comes to choosing the best mattress for your pocket. The tension (also known by their 'gauge) of springs will play an important part in how firm or supple the mattress is. Additionally, the quality of the upholstery layers, which can vary from natural to reflex foam fillings, can affect the overall feel of the mattress.

For instance, a top-quality mattress could have a spring count of up to 3000, but if the weight of the upholstery layer is not high it can result in an overly firm mattress. It's important to study the fine print when looking for the right mattress to meet your requirements.

Spinal Alignment is essential for a correct alignment.

Back pain is often due to poor spinal alignment. However, a good mattress can help you avoid this. The support and comfort offered by a pocket spring mattress contours the body, distributing weight evenly and relieving strain from sensitive places like the lower back. It allows the larger parts of your body to rest on it, providing support exactly where you need it.

The standard double mattress mattresses are more likely to react uniformly, but the springs of a pocket-sprung mattress respond individually to the shape of the body. This tailored responsiveness lets the mattress align itself with the spine. This assists in maintaining spinal health and reduces stress on the heavier areas of the body, such as the hips and shoulders.

A high-quality pocket spring mattress can be tailored to your sleeping habits. For instance, if you're a side sleeper and prefer a mattress with a soft feel, softer mattresses will offer better support for the hips and shoulders while a more firm option is ideal for back or stomach sleepers to maintain the alignment of their spine and ease pressure on the sensitive lower back.

Another advantage of a pocket sprung mattress is that it's cooler than memory foam and offers a more breathable night's sleep. This makes it an excellent option for those susceptible to overheating, as well as those with muscles and joints that are painful. It is important to note however that a high-quality pocket sprung mattress could require a turn to prevent sagging, which could be a challenge for those who are unable to turn frequently.

Reduced Motion Transfer

The springs that make up the mattress's pocket springs move independently of each other, cutting down on motion transfer from your partner's movements. This allows you to have a relaxing night's sleep without being disturbed by the other's movements or feeling as if the other person is changing in their sleep. The quality of the materials that are upholstered with springs can also contribute to this feature, so it's worth choosing mattresses made from natural fabrics such as wool or cotton instead of synthetic polyester.

The kind of foundation you select is also important for reducing motion transfer. Instead of box springs with springs in them, opt for a platform base with metal bars or wooden slats that are spaced closely. Slats of the mattress that are too far apart can cause the mattress wear out faster and you may be able to feel your partner's every move.

A hybrid pocket sprung mattress can be a good choice for reducing motion transfer since the layers of latex or memory foam that are housed within a pocketed coil bed can absorb and block the movements of your partner. However, it's important to note that no mattress will completely eliminate motion transfer without sacrificing comfort.

Some of our hybrid pocket sprung mattresses are also available in different support tensions, which means you can pick the level of firmness that's best for you. We recommend mattresses that are medium-firm to those who sleep on their backs, or who prefer to sleep on their side. These mattresses can mould to your spine curves, providing you with enhanced support and a healthy spinal alignment.
