spring mattress

Bouncy sleeping surface

A spring mattress is a mattress containing metal coils or springs as its primary support system.

The springs compress under body weight and push back, providing both cushioning and structural support.

Spring mattresses dominated the bedding market throughout the twentieth century before memory foam and other alternatives gained popularity.

They range from basic innerspring designs with interconnected coils to more advanced pocketed-coil systems where each spring moves independently.
