Coil Mattress

Coil sprung mattresses: the short answer
A coil sprung (open coil) mattress uses one connected unit of springs, such as a Bonnell unit, rather than individually pocketed springs. It is firmer, lighter and usually cheaper than pocket sprung, which makes it a good choice for guest rooms, children’s beds and bunk beds. Ours start from £81.99 with free delivery to mainland England and Wales including Anglesey.

Open coil or pocket sprung?
Open coil springs move together, so the feel is firm and even, but you may feel a partner turn over. Pocket springs move independently, so there is less roll-together and more body-shaping support. Our guide to the pros and cons of Bonnell spring mattresses goes into more detail, and hybrid mattresses sit between the two.

Coil sprung mattress FAQs
What is a Bonnell spring? An hourglass-shaped coil joined to its neighbours by wire, forming one unit. It is the most common open coil design.
What does spring gauge mean? The thickness of the wire. A lower number is thicker wire and a firmer feel, so 12.5 gauge is firmer than 13.5.
Which mattress is best for a bunk bed? A shallow one, so the guard rail stays high enough above it. Check the bed’s maximum mattress depth; our bunk mattresses are around 16cm deep.
Do you sell EU mattress sizes? Yes, the Bonnell European size mattress. Do not put a UK mattress on a bed made to EU sizes.
Where do you deliver? Free delivery to mainland England and Wales, including Anglesey. We do not deliver to Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Wight or the Isles of Scilly. You can spread the cost with Clearpay or PayPal Pay in 3.
