But seeing a large number of characteristics, we get lost and don’t know how to buy the best. To help you understand everything, we have listed the main points that will help you make your choice. We hope that with our help the purchasing process will be easy and enjoyable for you.

Rigidity

All mattresses have varying degrees of firmness. But in practice, each person feels it differently. It's not just a matter of body composition and habits, but also of individual perception.

However, there are some general recommendations that you can use when purchasing to choose the right mattress firmness. For example, children whose spine is still developing are recommended to sleep on a hard surface, as this is important for the proper development of the back. On the contrary, older people are advised to sleep on soft things in order to relax their muscles as much as possible and relieve stress on their joints and blood vessels.

To choose the optimal mattress for yourself in terms of hardness, analyze the sleeping place on which you sleep now. Is this stiffness comfortable for you? What would you like to change? Pay special attention to whether there is pain in the back or neck, as they may indicate an improperly organized sleeping area.

Dependent spring blocks

Traditionally, mattresses use a block of Bonnell dependent springs. All the springs in it are fastened together with a spiral of steel wire, as a result of which when one of them is compressed, the neighboring ones are also compressed. Simplicity and affordable price are the main reasons for using the Bonnell block, but recently it has been used less and less, as it is inferior in convenience to other models.

In modern units, each spring is placed in a fabric cover and operates independently of the neighboring one. Thanks to this, the load is distributed more evenly, there is no “hammock effect” and the mattress adapts to the shape of the body as accurately as possible. This technology is the most used and effective. The more springs there are per bed in the block, the more weight the mattress can withstand, the more comfortable it is and the better the anatomical effect is expressed.

Springless mattresses

These mattresses are based on monolithic or stacked blocks made of natural and artificial filling materials. In terms of their anatomical properties, such mattresses are not inferior to spring mattresses, but in general they are more rigid and the sensations from them are slightly different, since there is no vibration of the springs. Due to this, they are more comfortable for a couple, since sleepers feel less of each other’s movements.
