Mattress FAQs
Everything you need to know before you buy
What mattress firmness is right for me?
Firmness depends on your sleep position, body weight and personal preference. Side sleepers generally suit a softer feel as it cushions pressure points at the hip and shoulder. Back sleepers do best with medium to medium firm — enough support to keep the spine aligned. Front sleepers need a firmer surface to prevent the lower back dipping. Heavier sleepers tend to need a firmer mattress as they compress the layers more.
How long should a mattress last?
Most mattresses last between 7 and 10 years with proper care. Higher quality pocket sprung and latex mattresses can last 10 to 15 years. Signs it's time to replace yours include visible sagging or lumps, waking with aches and pains, or simply not sleeping as well as you used to. Rotating your mattress regularly helps extend its life significantly.
What's the difference between pocket sprung and open coil?
Open coil mattresses use a single connected wire system — less expensive but more prone to motion transfer. Pocket sprung mattresses have individual springs each sewn into their own fabric pocket, so they respond independently to movement and weight. This means better support, less partner disturbance, and a longer lifespan. Pocket sprung is generally the superior choice for most sleepers.
Is memory foam good for back pain?
Memory foam can be very effective for back pain as it contours to the body's natural curves and distributes pressure evenly. However, if you need firm spinal support, a medium-firm pocket sprung or hybrid mattress may work better. It depends on the type and cause of your back pain — our mattress quiz can help match you to the right choice for your specific needs.
Do I need a specific mattress for my bed frame?
The most important thing is getting the right size. Most mattresses work with most frames. The exception is slatted frames — if the slats are more than 7cm apart you may need a sturdier mattress or a slatted base insert. Divan beds with a platform top provide the firmest, most even support and suit any mattress type. Adjustable beds require a specially designed flexible mattress.
What does spring count actually mean?
Spring count refers to the number of individual pocket springs in a king size mattress. Higher count generally means more targeted support — but it's not the only factor in quality. A 1,000 spring mattress from a reputable brand will often outperform a cheaper 3,000 spring mattress. The gauge of the springs, the fillings above them, and overall build quality matter just as much as the count.
How do I know if my mattress is too soft or too firm?
A mattress that's too soft will cause you to sink and feel unsupported — you may wake with lower back aches or find it hard to change position. One that's too firm creates pressure points at the hips and shoulders, especially for side sleepers. Ideally your spine should be in a neutral position — not bowed downward or arched upward — when lying in your normal sleep position.
What's the best mattress for couples?
The ideal couples mattress minimises motion transfer so neither partner disturbs the other. Pocket sprung mattresses with a high spring count (1,500+) are excellent for this as each spring reacts independently. Memory foam and hybrid mattresses also absorb movement well. If you and your partner prefer very different firmness levels, a zip and link mattress lets you join two mattresses together — each person gets their preferred feel.
How do I care for and maintain my mattress?
Rotate your mattress 180 degrees every 3 months for the first year, then every 6 months after (unless it's a no-turn model). Use a good quality mattress protector to guard against moisture and staining. Vacuum the surface regularly to remove dust. Allow your mattress to air periodically — pull back the covers for 20 minutes each morning before making the bed.

Ideally your spine should be in a neutral position — not bowed downward or arched upward — when lying in your normal sleep position.
What size mattress do I need?
The right size depends on your bedroom dimensions, whether you sleep alone or with a partner, and how much space you personally need to sleep comfortably. A double (135 x 190cm) is the most popular choice for couples in smaller rooms. A king size (150 x 200cm) gives noticeably more width and length and is worth the upgrade if your room allows it. A super king (180 x 200cm) is ideal if space is no object. For a single sleeper, a small double (120 x 190cm) gives room to stretch without taking up too much floor space.
What's the best mattress for couples?
The ideal couples mattress minimises motion transfer so neither partner disturbs the other. Pocket sprung mattresses with a high spring count (1,500+) are excellent for this as each spring reacts independently. Memory foam and hybrid mattresses also absorb movement well.

Allow your mattress to air periodically — pull back the covers for 20 minutes each morning before making the bed.

Pocket Springs FAQ's

What are pocket springs in a mattress?

Pocket springs are individual coil springs encased in fabric pockets within a mattress. Unlike traditional interconnected coil systems, pocket springs operate independently. This allows them to move separately, conforming to the shape and weight of your body for enhanced support and minimized motion transfer.

Key Benefits of Pocket Springs:
Enhanced Support – Each spring adapts to your body's unique contours, offering personalized support.
Minimized Motion Transfer – Perfect for couples, as movement on one side of the bed won’t disrupt the other.
Improved Airflow – Promotes better temperature regulation compared to foam mattresses.
Long-Lasting Durability – Resists sagging and maintains its shape longer with proper care

How many pocket springs should a good mattress have?

The optimal number of pocket springs in a mattress depends on factors like comfort, support, and budget. Here’s a general breakdown:

Basic Guidelines:

  • 600–1000 Springs – Ideal for budget-friendly options or guest beds.

  • 1000–1500 Springs – Provides a good balance of comfort and support for most sleepers.

  • 1500–2000 Springs – Offers improved body contouring, perfect for side sleepers or those needing extra pressure relief.

  • 2000+ Springs – Found in premium mattresses, delivering maximum support and minimal motion transfer. Some luxury models even feature 5000+ springs with multiple layers for added comfort.

Does More Springs Always Mean Better?
Not necessarily! The quality of the springs and overall mattress construction are more important than just a high spring count. A well-crafted 1000-spring mattress can outperform a poorly designed 3000-spring one in terms of comfort and durability.

Are pocket spring mattresses good for back pain?

Yes, pocket spring mattresses can be a great choice for alleviating back pain, but their effectiveness depends on factors like firmness level and the number of springs.

Why Are Pocket Springs Good for Back Pain?
Personalized Support – Each spring works independently to contour to your body, helping maintain proper spinal alignment.
Firmness Options – Available in soft, medium, and firm levels to cater to different back pain needs.
Pressure Relief – Minimizes strain on pressure points, particularly beneficial for back and side sleepers.
Even Weight Distribution – Prevents sagging and uneven support, which can exacerbate back pain.

Best Pocket Spring Mattresses for Back Pain:

  • Medium-Firm (1000–2000 springs) – Ideal for most back pain sufferers, offering balanced support without being overly rigid.

  • Firm (1500+ springs) – Perfect for those with chronic lower back pain who require additional support.

  • Hybrid (Pocket Springs + Memory Foam) – Combines the responsiveness of springs with the cushioning of memory foam for enhanced comfort and relief.

How long do pocket spring mattresses last?

A high-quality pocket spring mattress generally lasts between 7 to 10 years, though this can vary based on factors such as construction quality, usage, and maintenance.

Factors Affecting Lifespan:
Spring Quality – Thicker, higher-gauge springs and a higher spring count enhance durability.
Materials Used – Hybrid designs incorporating memory foam or latex often outlast mattresses with only pocket springs.
Usage – Heavier individuals or couples may experience faster wear compared to single sleepers.
Care & Maintenance – Regularly rotating the mattress every 3–6 months and using a protective cover can significantly extend its lifespan
