Without a good mattress you will not get a good nights sleep that is a known fact, even if it is said that you ’can sleep on a clothes line’. Usually the more that you spend on a mattress the better it will be. You will certainly get deeper filling, which will provide more comfort and prolonged mattress life. Not all mattresses are constructed in the same way and there are important differences, usually in the method of springing. Again the more springs that a mattress contains the more expensive it will be and the better support you will get.

There are two types of sprung mattress, the interior or coiled sprung mattress and the pocket sprung mattress. With the interior sprung design whilst each manufacturer varies the technology, they all feature row upon row of springs linked together with a spiral wire, which ensures the mattress retains its shape throughout its life. On the other hand the pocket sprung mattress is considered to more luxurious, these smaller lighter springs are individually wrapped in fabric pockets and work independently from one another.
