You’re in the market for a new mattress. You’ve probably done hours of research and already know that you prefer a spring mattress compared to foam. Now you’re wondering if more pocket springs (individually wrapped coils) make for a better mattress.
We understand that buying a new mattress is a significant investment, and you want to know everything you possibly can before making your purchase. So, by the end of this article, you’ll know exactly how many pocket springs make a better mattress and so much closer to having a better night’s sleep.
What is a Pocket Spring?
What you first must understand is what a pocket spring is and its role in a spring mattress. Pocket springs are individual metal coils, usually made out of steel, placed in a fabric pocket, and sealed stitched up.
These springs are then placed inside the mattress to then contract and support weight on top of the mattress. The coils each act independently of each other, which means they conform to your body when you lie down. This also minimizes motion transfer across the mattress, providing less disturbance to your partner.
The More, the Better
To answer your initial question, yes, more pocket springs do, in fact, make a better mattress. Now you probably have another question - how many pocket springs do you need for a comfortable mattress?
We recommend that you buy a mattress with no less than 1,000 pocket springs in queen size. The more springs in a mattress mean, the smaller the springs are. The smaller the pocket spring, the better your mattress will conform to your body and distribute the weight.
Mattresses with more than a thousand pocket springs also isolate movement better. This is perfect for couples who don’t want to disturb their partner if they toss and turn in the middle of the night.
More springs also mean better air circulation and temperature control. So, you stay comfortable and cool all night long.
To sum up, more pocket springs mean a better mattress. The smaller springs better conform to your body, providing an even more comfortable night’s sleep. Plus, you’ll stay cool with the airflow and won’t disturb your partner.
