Do more pocket coils make a better mattress?
Are pocket coil mattresses good for you?
Can you flip a pocket coil mattress?
Those who’ve bought both, what’s your opinion/preference? Innerspring is cheaper to buy (but harder to ship) and gives more bounce and uniform support, but has “motion transfer.” Pocket coil is easier to ship and gives “motion isolation” and costs more (in stores). They’ve both been around a long time, with pocket coil having the name “Marshall coil” originally. Regarding reliability, I’m not sure, but in reviews it seems L&P pocket coils fail quite a bit while you hardly ever hear about a failed innerspring (just the foam above it). Thoughts?
I’m shopping around for a new mattress as my not so old Ikea Morgedal (firm) has become dented - most likely from me being in bed 24/7 with severe ME/CFS. I’m looking at the Naturepedic EOS Latex Free, and I’m curious if folks have any thoughts or insight into the longevity of a coil bed vs a foam bed (which I currently have). I know being in bed 2-3x more than a non disabled person will wear the bed down more, but I’m just looking for real life experience maybe with regards to the longevity of the coil type system that Naturepedic uses. Part of why I’m looking at the Naturepedic EOS is that I can replace the layers or adjust as needed, if my bed starts to sag in spots or if I need to change the layers out to offer more or less support. I tend to like a very firm base with some 3-4” of plush on top (currently have a 3” egg crate on my Morgedal foam mattress), since any too soft of a bed will cause joint dislocation as I toss and turn thru the night (I’m a rotisserie style side sleeper mostly haha).
Anyways, I’m curious if anyone has thoughts of longevity of the coils, or if anyone who is also in bed most of the day has a Naturepedic EOS system and how it works for them! Thanks in advance!
The last time I bought a bed was 9 years ago. I got a Casper, because internet memory foam mattresses seemed to be the Hip New Thing. Now when I look, all the nice mattresses seem to be pocket spring based. Was there are revolution that spring-hybrid was actually the better design? I thought all-foam was the future!
