How is it made?

Made of metal and covered with  layers of  various foams and fabrics.

How does it respond to my body?

Springs react to pressure by pushing back, so instead of  conforming to pressure points, they push against them.

Does it have enough support?

Metal springs can bend and fatigue over time causing the mattress to sag – not what you want to spend a third of your life on.

What about pressure points?

Springs are “springy”. The more you push against them, the more they push back, creating pressure points in your shoulders, back and hips.

If my partner moves around will I feel it?

Many spring mattresses have wires connecting the rows of springs with border rods holding them all in place. When you press one side, the whole bed moves.

Is it durable?

It is a wound metal product that is cost effective for the manufacturer but can change and sag over time.

Is it healthy?

Metal springs are contained in layers of foams and fabrics. Many synthetics are used that may be havens for dust mites, bed bugs – even mold and other bacteria.
