A customer asked

Hi, I am looking for a mattress with a smallish budget. I was told that pocket sprung will last long and comfortable and no roll together, so I was searching. I have found something in argos on sale but it is Airsprung. What is the difference between pocket sprung and airsprung?

Would you say the one below is a good value for money?

it's on sale from £539 down to £569. Airsprung Oban memory foam Kingsize Mattress. Tall 12.5 gauge framed spring unit with layers of white polyester & foam fillings. •Medium firm feel. •12.5 gauge mattress with 350 springs. •Memory foam layer with knit cover. •Edge to edge support. •Fire retardant. •Mattress size W150, L200, D24.1cm. •Easy care no turn mattress. •Everyday use. Thank you

Hi Eniko,

 

Thank you for your enquiry.  What is the difference between pocket sprung and Airsprung? Airsprung is a brand name from Airsprung Beds, targetted towards the low end. As you have already mentioned it is a 12.5 gauge mattress-guide/" title="spring">spring unit which is of course just a cage sprung mattress. Pocket Springs is a type of spring system where each individual spring is in it's own pocket, these pockets are then sewn together to form a mattress.

The one-sided mattress you mentioned contains memory foam.  As memory foam utilised body heat in order to be able to mould to your body, it retains this heat, often making the sleeper overheat.  If you are looking for a one-sided mattress you should be looking for one that has latex as the comfort layer as this is more durable, responsive and less heat retentive than memory foam.
