Spring mattresses: are they just right for you?

Spring mattresses: are they just right for you?

When it comes to choosing a mattress, there are many options available on the market. One of the most popular and traditional types are pocket spring mattresses. These mattresses are the most modern version of the classic box spring mattresses and have a number of features that make them more comfortable than they used to be. In this article, we will explore the pros and cons of pocket spring mattresses, the many benefits they offer and the people for whom they may be particularly suitable. Is a spring mattress the right choice for you? Find out its features to make an informed choice. 

Features of pocket spring mattresses

Pocket spring mattresses, also called independent spring mattresses, feature an internal core made of steel and polyurethane springs. The springs are separated and coated with polyurethane foam shells. These springs ensure proper support and excellent durability of the mattress, all while maintaining supreme comfort. Mollyflex spring mattresses are divided into: independent spring mattresses (800 springs) and ergonomic independent spring mattresses (1600 to 3000 springs). 

Independent spring mattresses 

The independent spring mattresses are sturdy, elastic and durable. With removable covers and washable, they are easy to maintain and offer excellent anatomical support. The inner box contains 880 independent pocket springs wrapped in polyurethane foam shells. This design allows for better motion isolation, adapting to body shapes and reducing partner discomfort during sleep.

An example of these mattresses is the Giotto Spring model, which is particularly suitable for heavy weights and people who suffer from heat during the night.

Ergonomic independent spring mattresses 

Ergonomic box spring mattresses are sumptuous, tall and extremely robust. The inner box contains 1600 to 3000 pocket springs encased in layers of polyurethane and memory foam, as well as other materials, such as linen and goose feather. This multilayered composition and the reduced size of the springs provide true orthopaedic support and a feeling of extraordinary softness and cosiness. 

A top model in this category is the Brixia Premium, which adds the comfort of a built-in quilted feather-pad topper to the spring support.

Why choose a spring mattress?

Pocket spring mattresses offer several benefits that are worth considering. First of all, being made of breathable materials, spring mattresses facilitate air circulation inside the mattress, ensuring a cooler and more comfortable sleeping temperature.

Secondly, due to their internal structure consisting of springs, memory and polyurethane foam, these mattresses offer excellent support and body weight distribution. The springs work in synergy to support different parts of the body, ensuring good posture during sleep and relieving pressure on the back, neck and joints.

For whom are spring mattresses suitable? 

Box spring mattresses are suitable for different types of people with special needs. If you need a mattress that provides adequate support for your back or if you suffer from joint pain, a spring mattress might be ideal for you. Thanks to the support provided by the internal springs, these mattresses can relieve pressure and reduce the build-up of tension on the spine.

In addition, if you tend to suffer from heat during sleep, independent spring mattresses can be a good solution. Thanks to their highly breathable materials, they absorb body heat and release it to the outside. The result? A cool, dry and comfortable night’s sleep, even in summer!

Finally, if you share a bed with a partner and are worried about being disturbed by movements during the night, pocket spring mattresses may be the right choice. Thanks to their ability to isolate movements, they will ensure a quieter sleep without mutual disturbances.

What is the best spring mattress? 

Box spring mattresses offer solid support, good responsiveness and great value for money. They are suitable for those looking for a mattress that offers comfort and support, especially for those suffering from joint pain.
