Description
The Foam Bonnell Spring European Size Mattress is made for bed frames built to continental EU sizes, which are 200cm long rather than the UK’s 190cm. If your bed is a 90×200, 140×200, 160×200 or 180x200cm frame, a UK mattress will leave a gap at the foot; this one fills it properly. It is a straightforward, two-sided open coil (Bonnell) mattress, 15cm deep and medium firm, with a layer of foam on each face and a zipped cover.
How it is made
At the core is a Bonnell coil spring unit: hourglass-shaped springs linked together so they work as one support layer. Each side is topped with 2cm of polyurethane foam and fibre filling for comfort, and the whole mattress sits inside a quilted microfibre cover with a zip. Because it has the same build on both faces, it can be flipped as well as rotated, which spreads wear and helps it keep its shape for longer.
Who it suits
A medium firm open coil mattress is a sound, budget-friendly choice for a guest room, a child’s or teenager’s bed, a holiday let, or anyone who prefers a supportive feel without sinking in. It is also the natural partner for the many EU-size bed frames, ottoman beds and bunk-style beds we sell from Arte-N, which are designed around 200cm-long mattresses. At 15cm deep it sits neatly inside most bed frames and ottoman surrounds.
Choosing the right size
Measure the inside of your bed frame, or check the size on the bed’s product page, before ordering. EU sizes are labelled by width and length in centimetres: European Single 90x200cm, European Double 140x200cm, European King 160x200cm and European Super King 180x200cm. They are not the same as UK single, double, king and super king sizes (90×190, 135×190, 150×200 and 180x200cm), so do not swap one for the other except at super king, where the 180x200cm size matches.
Looking after it
Turn the mattress head to foot and flip it every few weeks for the first three months, then every couple of months after that. Let it air for a few hours after unpacking. The cover unzips for cleaning; follow the care label, and make sure it is completely dry before refitting. Use a breathable mattress protector to keep it fresh, and avoid sitting on the same edge every day.
