About inner spring mattress

Innerspring mattresses are probably the most common type of mattress in use today. It's what we tend to associate with some of the older spring mattresses, so far as having a bunch of wires and springs supporting us while we sleep. However, the new innerspring mattresses are designed around the idea of maintaining comfortable support for the sleeper.

Nonetheless, there are some misconceptions that people tend to have about these mattresses.

For example, it was believed that a mattress with more springs would lead to a firmer mattress. Whilst true to a certain extent, it's also become clear that the construction of the wire spring itself is a major contributor. It's typical to see innerspring mattresses with anywhere from 300 to 800 springs. Of course you can guess that a firmer bed has more springs in it, but it's possible to get the same result with only 400 springs if the gauge of the spring is high enough.

Also, firmer mattresses aren't necessarily better. They can be better for people who sleep on their back, but the majority of people tend to sleep on their sides instead. It follows, then, that people who sleep on their sides should be less concerned about the firmness of the mattress and more concerned with getting the right amount of support to put their spine in alignment.

For that matter, mattresses with individually wrapped coils tend to be the best.
