Spring Mattress

Spring Mattress: Supportive, Breathable, and Popular for Everyday Use

The spring mattress is one of the most popular mattress types in Thailand, thanks to a spring structure that distributes weight and supports the body efficiently. The gaps inside the spring frame also let air circulate all night long, so it never feels stuffy or hot, which suits Thailand's climate, and it lasts a long time.

Types of Spring Mattress

Spring mattresses are categorized by their internal spring system, which delivers a different feel and level of support.

Bonnell Spring: Great Value With Good Weight Support

A traditional spring system in which the coils are connected across the whole surface, supporting weight well at an economical price. It suits everyday bedrooms and anyone who wants a quality spring mattress on a limited budget.

Pocket Spring Mattress (Pocket Spring): Less Motion Transfer for Deeper Sleep

Each spring is wrapped in its own separate fabric pocket, so it supports the body precisely at the points where weight presses down and reduces motion transfer when your partner turns over. It is a popular system chosen by hotels and high-end residences.

Marshall Coil: High-Density Coils for Ultimate Support

A pocket-style spring with an exceptionally high coil density that supports weight superbly. It suits people who want maximum firmness and durability.

How to Choose the Right Spring Mattress for You

Start by choosing a spring system that matches how you use it. If you sleep alone and value affordability, Bonnell spring fits the bill well, but if you sleep as a couple or wake easily from motion, a pocket spring mattress is the better answer. For pocket spring models, we recommend choosing no fewer than 1,000 coils for a 5-foot mattress for fine, consistent support across the whole surface, and do not forget to pick a firmness level that matches your sleeping position and body weight.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Spring Mattress

Q: Is a spring mattress any good?

A: A spring mattress is a great choice for anyone who wants stable weight support, good ventilation, and a long service life. The key is to choose a spring system and firmness level that match the way you sleep, so we recommend trying one in person before deciding.

Q: How is a pocket spring mattress different from an ordinary spring?

A: An ordinary spring, or Bonnell spring, has coils connected across the whole surface, so when one point moves it transfers force to the rest. A pocket spring mattress separates each spring in its own pocket, supporting the body more precisely and reducing motion transfer from side to side, which makes it especially suitable for couples.

Q: Spring mattress or latex mattress, which should I choose?

A: It depends on the feel you prefer. A spring mattress offers bounce and flexibility, with air moving freely through the spring frame, while a latex mattress gives a firm, snug feel that cradles the whole body. If the decision is hard, a hybrid such as a latex spring mattress that combines the strengths of both materials is an appealing option.

Q: How many coils should a pocket spring mattress have?

A: For a 5-foot mattress, we recommend no fewer than 1,000 coils, because more coils mean finer support points, more even weight distribution, and a more precise response to the body.

Q: Can people with back pain sleep on a spring mattress?

A: Yes. You should choose a model that supports the body well, such as a pocket spring, with a medium-firm to firm feel to help keep the spine in a straight line. We recommend trying one in person at a branch to find the model that fits your body.

Q: How many years does a spring mattress last?

A: A good-quality spring mattress lasts a long time. In general you should consider replacing it every 7 to 10 years, or when you notice the springs no longer support weight as well as before, the surface feels like it sags into a hollow, or you wake up unusually achy.
