And today, we see much more advanced variants of it. We’ll see all of those, along with a list of the best spring mattresses from the leading mattress brand - Sleepwell UAE. 

What is a Spring Mattress? 

A spring mattress is designed with a system of metal coils that make up the base of the mattress. One of the defining features of a spring mattress is motion isolation and its ability to give responsive support to every muscle of the body. And since the springs are steel, they help in maintaining a good posture. There are a lot many benefits of a spring mattress, but first lets see it’s different types. 

Types of Spring Mattresses

• Bonnell Spring mattress: This type of mattress has an interconnected system of hourglass-shaped steel coils that make up the base of the mattress 

• Pocket Spring Mattress: This type of spring mattress has coils that are placed in individual pockets made of cloth, which is then tied together to foam a mattress size base. 

Key Benefits of a Spring Mattress

• Exceptional Airflow and Cooling: Spring mattresses naturally promote airflow due to their open coil structure. This enhanced airflow system is most suitable for places like the UAE that experience an arid desert climate, which is warm throughout the year. 

• Balanced Support and Firmness: The strong, responsive support that a spring mattress provides is simply incomparable. This makes a spring mattress ideal for heavy-weight individuals who often wake up with back pain because their mattress sinks in and doesn't provide the firm support that the back needs. 

• Enhanced Durability: The quality of springs determines the durability of the spring mattress. Although spring mattresses are generally durable, the quality of the steel coils used totally depends on the brand that the mattress belongs to. Sleepwell UAE uses reinforced steel coils to ensure long-lasting performance.

• Reduced Motion Transfer: Springs isolate motion, meaning it absorb movement at the source, keeping it from getting transferred to the other side. This makes a spring mattress ideal for couples sharing a bed.

How to Choose the Best Spring Mattress 

Now that you know what a spring mattress is, let's understand how to make the right choice of the right spring mattress.

• Identify your preferred spring type: While a pocket spring mattress delivers individualized support and reduced motion transfer, a bonnell spring mattress is firmer. Depending on the firmness level you need, you can decide on the type of spring mattress. 

• Consider comfort layers and material: Spring mattresses are layered with various types of foams like - memory foam, latex foam, soft or firm PU foam. Seeing the comfort level that each of these foams provides should help you make the choice of the mattress. 

• Choose the right firmness: The firmness that you need is dependent on your sleeping position. Side sleepers benefit from a soft foam as it provides body contouring to the body’s pressure points. Back sleepers, on the other hand, must sleep on a medium firm to firm mattress for a healthy back alignment. Stomach sleepers should go for a firm mattress that would keep their backs in shape. 

• Pick the right size: Before you make the decision to buy a spring mattress, take proper measurements of your bed frame. The standard UAE bed sizes are - single, queen, and king. 

• Buy from a trusted mattress brand: As we said earlier that the quality of the springs and thereby the durability of the mattress depends on the brand the mattress belongs to. One of the best brands to choose your mattress from is Sleepwell UAE, which has over six decades of experience making the best quality mattresses that cater to a wide range of sleeping needs.
