Connected Coil: The connected
coil system connects each row together with helical wires. Each coil
unit is made of a single wire attached to the next row by helicals. This
type of coil is often made into a lattice of coils rather than rows,
allowing more coils per mattress than other constructions. This design
allows each coil to distribute weight to a great number of springs
resulting in less stress on each coil. Mattresses with connected coils
last much longer and are less susceptible to sagging. Unlike
any other company, Serta uses a continuous coil system, in which a
single metal wire makes up an entire row of coils. This system has
proven itself to be the longest lasting in the market. Pocket Coil/Independent Coil or Marshal Coils: A pocket or independent coil is a cylindrical spring wrapped in its own fabric pocket. This construction is designed to give the most contour of any support system. Each coil works independently which means that you will feel your partner move much less. Each pocket coil absorbs the weight placed on it without distributing the load to other coils. Because of this, it is possible that the coils will provide less support over time, particularly for heavier people. This type of coil is a good choice for people who toss and turn and for their bed partners because the motion separation may prevent waking from a deep sleep which is very important for well being. Restonic and Kingdom uses this type of coil in a few of their mattresses. Click to learn helpful information about mattress terms and categories! | ||
