Which is better - a springless or spring mattress? Automatic translate

Potential buyers exhibit the greatest amount of misunderstanding when it comes to choosing a foundation. They are not sure what is better - to buy a spring mattress out of habit, or to plunge into the unknown and buy a springless product.

According to OK Matras specialists , prejudices associated with both the first and second groups are greatly exaggerated. The fact is that a mattress stuffed with horsehair and a springless mattress are completely different things. For the manufacture of modern springless mattresses, environmentally friendly materials of high wear resistance and elasticity are used, which optimally support loads. The same can be said about spring mattresses - this is far from the “something” creaking and pricking with springs from grandma’s bedroom.

What are they made of?

The basis of a spring mattress is a block of independent springs. The greater the concentration of springs, the more precise support will be provided. The higher the springs themselves, the higher the lateral support for the sleeper. Due to the fact that the springs are not interconnected, each of them is responsible for supporting only a small area of ​​the body. This is precisely what the orthopedic effect is based on - the correct positioning of the body on the mattress while sleeping.

Springless mattresses are based on elastic natural or synthetic fillers (latex, coconut fiber, or polyurethane memory foam). Before use, materials are tested for the presence of substances harmful to the body. They have hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties and can provide orthopedic support to the body.

Features of choosing the right mattress

A negative property of a spring mattress is the springing effect, which has a bad effect on the developing young spine, so such mattresses should not be purchased for children under 12 years of age.

For children of senior school age, spring mattresses with moderate hardness on a block of independent springs are recommended.

For adults who have not had spinal injuries and have not been diagnosed with musculoskeletal diseases, both spring and springless mattresses with a firmness appropriate to their weight are recommended.
For people who have been diagnosed with diseases of the spine or joints, as well as those who have problems with cardiovascular diseases, the recommendation is to consult a doctor.
