Pocket Sprung Mattresses

What are pocket springs?

Our pocket sprung mattresses have between 800 to 8000 springs inside a bed. The individual pocket springs are wrapped in their fabric pocket, allowing each spring to move independently. The many individual pocket springs will mean minimal motion transfer, and your partner won't be disturbed at night.
