Coil Counts: Finding the Right Balance for Your Mattress

When it comes to selecting the perfect mattress, coil count is often cited as a key factor in determining quality and comfort. But is there a magic number of coils that guarantees a better night's sleep?

The truth is the best coil count for a mattress is subjective and varies depending on individual sleep preferences, physiological conditions and expert recommendations.

About Coil Counts

Coil count refers to the number of coils or springs within a mattress's support system. Higher coil counts are often associated with increased firmness, while lower coil counts may provide a more pliable, softer sleeping surface that offers a more enveloping sleep experience.

Although high coil count mattresses can be more expensive, the relationship between coil count and mattress quality is not necessarily parallel. You can’t always make a straightforward value judgement based solely on price or the number of coils.

Factors to Consider

When determining the best coil count for your mattress, it's essential to consider several factors:

• Sleep Preferences: Your preferred sleeping position, firmness level and comfort preferences play a significant role in determining the ideal coil count for your mattress. Side sleepers may prefer a softer mattress with fewer coils to allow for greater contouring and pressure relief, while back or stomach sleepers may require a firmer mattress with more coils for enhanced support.

• Physiological Conditions: Individuals with specific physiological conditions, such as chronic back pain or spinal alignment issues, may benefit from a mattress with a particular coil count recommended by their doctor or chiropractor. These experts can provide personalized guidance based on your unique needs and health considerations. For example, our Doctor’s Special latex mattress contains a wrapped pocket coil and was designed by a chiropractor to alleviate sleep-related pain.

• Budget: While higher coil counts are often associated with premium mattresses, they also tend to come with a higher price tag. It's essential to balance your budgetary constraints with your sleep needs and preferences when selecting a mattress with the right coil count for you.



• Mattress Construction: In addition to coil count, factors such as coil type, gauge and mattress materials can also impact overall comfort and support. A well-constructed mattress with quality materials may provide superior performance and longevity, regardless of the specific coil count.

The Feel of More or Fewer Coils

The number of coils in a mattress can influence its feel and performance in several ways:

• More Coils: Mattresses with higher coil counts typically offer greater support and stability, as the additional coils distribute weight more evenly across the mattress surface. This can be beneficial for individuals who require enhanced support or prefer a firmer sleep surface.

• Fewer Coils: Conversely, mattresses with lower coil counts may provide a softer, more plush feel, as there is less resistance from the coils. This can be advantageous for those who prefer a more cushioned sleep experience or who have specific pressure points that require relief.

Cost Considerations

While higher coil counts are often associated with luxury mattresses and higher price points, it's important to recognize that cost is not always indicative of quality. Factors such as mattress construction, materials and brand reputation can also influence pricing.

Budget-friendly options with lower coil counts may still offer adequate comfort and support for many sleepers.
