Understanding Support Systems
A mattress should support your body over time, not just feel comfortable on day one.
Understanding support systems helps you choose long-term alignment, durability and performance.
Foam is a comfort material rather than a support system. It is typically used in comfort layers to create softness and contouring on the surface of a mattress.
While foam can feel comfortable initially, it does not provide long-term structural support on its own and is best used in combination with a dedicated support system beneath it.
Power coil systems feature robust, individually engineered coils that provide consistent support throughout the mattress. This construction is designed for long-term durability and reliable performance.
This system generally works well for those seeking firm, dependable support with good airflow.
Pocket Coil systems use individually wrapped coils that respond independently to body pressure. This allows the mattress to adapt to different body areas while still maintaining underlying support.
Because each coil moves on its own, Pocket Coil systems are known for responsive comfort and reduced partner disturbance, while still offering structured support across the mattress.
MiraCoil systems use a continuous coil design that runs the full length of the mattress. This interconnected structure creates exceptional stability and uniform support from edge to edge.
Designed for long-term performance, MiraCoil is recognised for maintaining consistent spinal alignment and structural integrity over extended use, making it a benchmark support system for durability and stability.
Best Of Both™ systems combine the proven stability of continuous coil support with the adaptive comfort of pocketed coils. This layered approach delivers structured, long-term support while allowing the surface to respond to individual body contours.
By integrating multiple support technologies, Best of Both represents the most advanced approach to mattress support - offering durability, alignment, and comfort working together rather than competing.
