Pocket Sprung Mattresses

A pocket sprung mattress contains hundreds, and in some cases thousands of individual springs encased in a pocket of fabric. This allows the springs to operate independently from each other, so only the springs bearing weight will move whilst the rest of the mattress remains stable.

Pocket spring mattresses have plenty of fantastic benefits, but we think their ability to reduce the amount of jostling someone experiences at night is number one. With hundreds of springs operating independently, they can support your body as you sleep and minimise any excess motion you might experience from moving around.

Unsurprisingly, this makes a pocket sprung mattress a popular choice for couples, especially those with a restless partner! You'll be able to sleep comfortably with minimal interruptions, as the pocket springs will absorb their movement to give you a better sleep. This also makes a pocket-sprung mattress great for active sleepers, as you don't need to worry about bouncing around when you move!

At the same time, the pocket springs can also provide custom support to your joints to help relieve pressure on your shoulders, hips and joints for a more comfortable sleep.

• Your weight/your partner's weight
• Personal preference
• Any injuries
• Your sleeping position

Yes! Some pocket sprung mattresses are rolled up for easy transportation, although many pocket sprung mattresses are delivered as they are to ensure the springs remain in good condition. At Happy Beds, we offer both types of delivery with our pocket sprung mattresses for your convenience.

If you're looking for a mattress with easy delivery, we have a wide selection of rolled mattresses that are vacuum-packed and rolled for easy transportation.

Yes, you can flip a pocket sprung mattress, but we would only recommend doing this if the manufacturer explicitly states this. Many mattresses are only one-sided, as they will have a layer of foam or quilting on only one side, which means that flipping it will be uncomfortable.
