A firm mattress is a firmness that offers very little give or sink, providing a very supportive sleeping surface and distributing your body weight more evenly than softer mattresses. Firm mattresses are perfect for front and back sleepers.

A one-year guarantee is provided by the manufacturer of the product, which covers any defects in materials or workmanship that may arise within one year from the date of purchase.

Knitted fabric is typically used as a top layer on a mattress as it provides a soft, breathable, and stretchy surface.

An open coil spring is a type of coil spring made from a single wire coiled into a helical shape. Open coil mattresses are known for their affordability, durability, and ability to provide a medium-firm level of support. They also tend to be lighter and easier to manoeuvre than other mattresses.

A tufted mattress has buttons or stitches sewn through the mattress layers, which help to hold the layers in place and prevent them from shifting or bunching up over time. The tufting process involves running a long needle through the mattress layers, pulling a button or thread through the top and bottom of the mattress, and then tying it off tightly. This creates a series of tufts or dimples on the surface of the mattress, which help to compress the padding and create a firm and supportive sleeping surface.

A double-sided mattress is designed to be used on both sides. This means that the mattress has two identical sleeping surfaces, one on each side, and can be flipped over and used on either side. The benefit of a double-sided mattress is that it allows for even wear and tear on both sides and can help to extend the life of the mattress. Flipping the mattress periodically can help to prevent compression and sagging, and can also help to distribute the weight of the sleeper more evenly across the mattress.

The primary purpose of mattress handles is to provide a convenient way to move or adjust the mattress, especially when rotating or flipping the mattress. Using the handles, you can get a better grip on the mattress and reduce the risk of straining your back or damaging the mattress.

When choosing a mattress for a heavier person, looking for a durable, supportive mattress that can withstand heavier weight is essential. A heavier person should consider a firmer, deeper mattress as this may be more suitable. A firmer mattress will better support a heavier person and prevent sinking.
