Pocket Sprung Mattresses in Ireland

A good night's sleep starts with the right mattress, and a pocket sprung mattress is designed to give you the perfect balance of comfort and support. With individually wrapped springs that move independently, you get superior weight distribution and targeted support exactly where you need it. Plus, the breathable structure of the springs allows for better air circulation, keeping you cool throughout the night.

Benefits of Pocket Sprung Mattresses

Plush Comfort and Support: The independent springs conform to your body's curves, providing pressure relief and cradling support, regardless of your sleeping position. This can lead to fewer aches and pains and a more comfortable sleep.

Reduced Partner Disturbance: If you share your bed with a restless sleeper, the magic of pocket springs comes into play. Movements are isolated thanks to the individual springs, minimizing the transfer of motion from one side of the bed to the other.

Spinal Alignment: Pocket-sprung mattresses can help maintain a neutral spinal position throughout the night, promoting good posture and potentially reducing back pain.
Variety of Feels: While they generally offer good support, pocket-sprung mattresses come in various spring counts and firmness levels. This allows you to find a mattress that suits your personal preference, from plush to firm. 

Who Should Consider a Pocket-Sprung Mattress?

  • Combination Sleepers: Do you switch positions throughout the night? The independent support of pocket springs makes them ideal for accommodating all sleeping styles.
  • Couples with Different Sleep Preferences: Since they offer both comfort and support, pocket-sprung mattresses can be a good compromise for couples who have varying firmness preferences.
  • Those Seeking Pressure Relief: If you suffer from back pain or pressure points, the individualized support of pocket springs can significantly improve your sleep comfort.

Things to Consider When Buying a Pocket-Sprung Mattress

  • Spring Count: Generally, a higher spring count indicates more support and better contouring. However, it's not the sole factor – consider the quality of the springs as well.
  • Firmness Level: Pocket-sprung mattresses come in soft, medium, and firm options. Choose the firmness that best suits your body weight, sleeping style, and personal preference.
  • Material: The fabric encasing the springs and any comfort layers on top of the springs can impact the feel of the mattress. Consider materials like latex or memory foam for added pressure relief.
