- Open Coil

An open coil spring system is made by inter-twining coils of high tensile steel which are linked together by a tighter coil of steel running either horizontally or vertically. The 'spring unit' then often surronded by a steel rod to hold the diameter firm.
The term 'gauge' refers to the diameter of the spring and how tightly it is coiled. The tighter the coil, the firmer the feel of the mattress.
13.5 gauge is quite soft with 12.5 gauge being fairly firm in feel. This frame is then placed within the base of the mattress frame and secured with stitching.
The frame is filled with a variety of fillings which will differ according to the manufacturer and the quality of the mattress.

Pocket spring mattresses are the best quality spring mattresses money can buy. Each spring is individually pocketed in a textile case. As the springs move independently, a restless sleeper is less likely to disturb his or her partner as movement is not translated throughout the entire mattress. The springs help the mattress mould to the contours of the body, giving complete and even support exactly where you need it.
