Five Lessons You Can Learn From Double Pocket Sprung Mattresses

Description

Double Pocket Spring Mattresses

A high-quality double pocket-sprung mattress will usually contain between 1000 and 2000 individual springs. The heavier people can benefit from a greater number of springs.

Choose a model with natural fillings for maximum comfort and breathability. Also, consider a design with two sides that allows for a monthly rotation and turning to ensure uniform wear.

Comfort

The symbiosis of pocket springs help the mattress to conform precisely to your body’s shape, easing pressure on sensitive areas. This is especially beneficial for people suffering from back pain because it lets the spine maintain its natural curvature and minimizes the unnatural bending and twisting which can increase discomfort. This type of mattress is also suitable for couples since it minimizes the transfer of motion between sleepers.

A double pocket sprung bed offers the perfect balance between softness and support. Look for one that has a layer of memory foam or latex over the springs to give extra support and lessen pressure points. This feature is particularly helpful for those who have difficulty sleeping due to chronic illnesses such as sleep apnea and back pain.

Another method to increase the comfort of sleeping on a mattress with a pocket spring is to choose one constructed with top-quality upholstery layers. These materials can make a big impact on the overall appearance of the mattress and help to keep you cool throughout the night. Look for a blend of natural fillings, such as wool, cotton and horsehair known for their breathability and durability as well as latex or memory foam that is gel-infused to provide a luxurious sleeping mattress.

When deciding on a level of firmness, keep in mind that different sleeping postures require different levels. Back and stomach sleepers, for example, should choose a medium or firm bed to give the proper amount of support. On the other hand side sleepers can benefit from a more supple or slightly firmer mattress that’s designed to ease pressure on the hips as well as shoulders.

Another thing to look out for is the number of pocket springs in a mattress. Some manufacturers may include micro or mini springs in their spring count to exaggerate the overall dimensions of the mattress, so check the specification to ensure you’re comparing apples with apples when it comes to the amount of support provided.

Support

Double pocket sprung mattresses are constructed of pocket springs that adjust independently according to your body’s shape, sleeping posture and nighttime movements. They offer a customized support and can alleviate back pain as they minimize the unnatural twisting and bending of the spine when you sleep. They also have a minimal motion transfer. This is why they are a good choice for couples that share the same bed or are affected by the movement of their partner.

The Blackwell from Silentnight is a pocket-sprung mattress that is priced at mid-price that includes a year’s home trial and a ‘forever guarantee’ (see the Ts and Cs). The pocket springs are ‘zoned’ so you can choose whether you want to sleep more firm in the center or more comfortably on the edges, and a layer of soft wool from herds traceable to Britain on top to deliver an incredibly soft feel.

The high-quality tufting of this mattress is one of its main characteristics. It offers a large amount of cushioning and support but isn’t too firm for most sleepers. This is coupled with a soft layer of natural fibres including cotton and wool mixtures alpaca, horsehair and mohair.

Contrary to popular belief the higher number of springs does not necessarily mean more support. In reality, the type of springs used is more important. Sprung mattresses made with spunbond or open coiled springs tend to be lower in terms of support and comfort than those that use pocket springs made of calico that are hand-tied for increased durability.

In addition to the springs, another important aspect is the gsm of the upholstery layers which make up the mattress. This will determine the level of comfort and luxury the mattress is to rest on. It differs from one model to the next. In general, higher-end mattresses are more soft and more luxurious. However, this may be a false economy since a mattress that has more gsm upholstery might not last as long and may need to be replaced sooner than a lower-quality one.

A mattress that is pocket-sprung requires regular maintenance. Regular rotation and turning, especially in the first six months will extend the life of the mattress and ensure that its upholstery layers are evenly distributed. This will help prevent body impressions that can negatively affect the comfort of your mattress.

Durability

The common belief is that a high number of springs, such as 2000 or more pocket springs will guarantee longevity. While this is true to an extent, the springs themselves aren’t the only thing that determines the longevity and the comfort of
