Frequently Asked Questions
What does 2000 pocket sprung mean on an orthopaedic mattress?
It refers to the number of individually wrapped pocket springs in the mattress, which are designed to respond independently and give supportive, responsive feel. A higher spring count can mean more detailed support, but it is only one part of comfort.
Why combine 2000 pocket springs with memory foam?
The pocket springs give independent support and airflow, while the memory foam adds a contouring layer on top. Together they aim for a supportive, orthopaedic-style feel that is still comfortable on pressure points like shoulders and hips.
What size is this 4ft6 pocket sprung orthopaedic mattress?
It is a 4ft6 UK double, usually 135 x 190cm. It fits standard double bed frames and divans of that size. Measure your frame's internal sleeping space and compare it with the size on the product page before ordering.
Is a 2000 pocket sprung orthopaedic mattress firm?
Orthopaedic styles lean firm and supportive, and the memory foam adds some contouring. It is not described as extra firm, so it should feel less hard than a very firm mattress. Check the product description for further feel details.
Is this an orthopaedic mattress for back support?
It is a firm, supportive style that many back sleepers like, with a memory foam layer over pocket springs. It is a 4ft6 double. Comfort is personal, so check the firmness on the product page and compare it with other orthopaedic mattresses in this collection.
How do 2000 pocket springs help couples sharing a double?
Each pocket spring moves independently, so movement on one side travels less across the bed. That can help light sleepers whose partner moves around. No mattress removes motion entirely, but pocket sprung builds are popular with couples.
Does a pocket sprung memory foam mattress have good airflow?
The springs leave open space inside the mattress so air can circulate, which generally helps heat escape better than solid foam. The memory foam layer still holds some warmth, so keep the room ventilated and bedding breathable.
Who might prefer a softer mattress than this orthopaedic double?
Lighter side sleepers who love deep, plush cushioning may find an orthopaedic style firm. If you prefer a soft mattress, look at softer listings. Back, stomach and heavier sleepers often find this supportive feel comfortable.
How do I move, rotate and care for a pocket sprung double?
Pocket sprung mattresses are heavy, so get a helper and unwrap it in the bedroom on a supportive base. Rotate it head to foot every few months, spot clean with a damp cloth and let it dry fully.
Is a 2000 pocket sprung orthopaedic mattress worth buying?
