What does edgeguard do?
The edges of a mattress take a lot of wear. They're where you sit to put socks on, where you push yourself up to get out of bed in the morning, and where you often end up if you share a bed and your partner spreads out in the night. Without reinforcement, those edges sag faster than the rest of the mattress and the usable sleep surface shrinks over time. Edge support systems like edgeguard use stronger gauge wire or extra springs at the perimeter to keep the sides feeling as solid as the middle.
Who benefits from edgeguard?
Couples sharing a bed get the most visible benefit, because the full surface of the mattress stays usable. Heavier sleepers also benefit, because reinforced edges hold up to the load of getting in and out of bed every day. Older sleepers who use the edge of the bed to push themselves up often prefer reinforced edges for the same reason.
Which mattresses come with edgeguard?
Edgeguard is used across a handful of pocket sprung mattresses, typically in the mid to upper range where the rest of the construction matches the quality of the edge support. Most edgeguard mattresses are medium firm or firmer.
