Hello there,

Thank you for your question.

It really depends upon the type of feel you are looking for. Our Origins range (synthetic upholstery layers) of pocket sprung mattresses are sold with a platform topped base, whereas the Artisan range (natural upholstery layers) are paired with a firm edge sprung base. There is obviously a cost element to having a sprung base, however, for that luxurious feel to accompany the more expensive Artisan range of products, we do recommend a sprung base, but it is a question of preference.

I trust that this helps, but if you require any further information, please call our office on 0161 437 4419.

Kind regards Julie
