Types of mattresses: which one is right for you?
Pocket spring mattresses
Pocket springs are individual springs inside independent pockets that work independently. They are the best option for those who get hot at night, share a bed with someone who moves a lot, or prefer a firmer and more responsive feel.
✅ Improved ventilation · Greater freedom of movement · Ideal for couples

Memory foam mattresses
Memory foam molds to the contours of the body, eliminating pressure points. It is ideal for those with back, hip, or shoulder pain, and for side sleepers.
✅ Improved joint comfort · Relief from pressure points · Ideal for lower back pain
Foam mattresses / core
Mattresses with a high-density foam core offer excellent value for money. Firm, durable and quiet — no springs, no creaking.
✅ Best value for money · Silent · Long lasting
Articulated mattresses
Designed for adjustable bases, these mattresses flex without causing damage. Ideal for people with reflux, circulation problems, reduced mobility, or who simply love to adjust their reading or resting position.
