The Sleeper’s Choice: Why Spring Mattresses Are Still On Top

At Beds4U, we've seen many mattress trends come and go, but spring mattresses have always remained a popular choice among Kiwis.

They're like the trusty old ute of the mattress world—reliable, sturdy, and built to last.


But why are they still on top?

Let's uncoil the truth about the enduring popularity of spring mattresses.

The Gold Standard for Spring Mattress Support and Comfort
Spring mattresses are built with a core of steel coils. These coils provide the mattress's structure and support.

The type and arrangement of the coils can vary, affecting the mattress's firmness and feel.

Benefits of Spring Mattresses
Breathability. Spring mattresses are naturally breathable, allowing air to circulate freely. This helps regulate your body temperature and prevent you from overheating at night. Perfect for those warm Kiwi summers!
Responsiveness. Spring mattresses respond quickly to your movements, making it easy to change positions throughout the night. This can be particularly beneficial for people who tend to toss and turn.
Durability. Spring mattresses are known for their longevity. With proper care, a good quality spring mattress can last for many years. That means great value for your money.
Support. Spring mattresses give excellent support to your spine and joints. The coils inside the mattress provide some give while offering enough support to keep your spine aligned. This makes them a great choice for people who suffer from back pain or other aches and pains.
Comfort. Spring mattresses come in several comfort levels, so you can find one that suits your preferences. Whether you prefer a plush or firm feel, there's a spring mattress for you.
Traditional Mattress Benefits Meet Modern Mattress Technology
While spring mattresses have been around for a while, it doesn't mean they're stuck in the past.

Mattress technology has come a long way, and today's spring mattresses are more advanced than ever.

Many now feature pocketed coils, which move independently of each other to provide more targeted support and reduce motion transfer. This means you won't be disturbed by your partner's movements during the night.

The Perfect Balance: Pros and Cons of Spring Mattresses
Just like any mattress type, spring mattresses have their pros and cons.

It's essential to weigh these up to decide if a spring mattress is the right choice for you.

Pros
Excellent support
Breathable and cool
Responsive to movement
Durable
Wide range of comfort options
Often more affordable than other mattresses

Cons
Can be noisy
Spring mattresses may not be the best option for people with allergies (if you have allergies, consider a hypoallergenic mattress cover)
Motion transfer can be an issue in some models (look for mattresses with individually wrapped coils to minimise this)
If you're unsure which type of mattress is right for you, chat with our team!
We can guide you through the different options and help you find the perfect mattress to improve your sleep quality.

Choosing the Right Mattress for Your Sleep Needs
At the end of the day, the best spring mattress for you is the one that meets your sleep needs.

A spring mattress could be a great option if you're looking for a supportive, comfortable, and durable mattress that won't break the bank.

We have a wide selection of innerspring mattresses, so you'll definitely find the perfect one.

And with our 60-Night Comfort Guarantee, you can rest assured that you're making the right choice.

We welcome the new year with fresh and hopeful hearts and minds .
A new symbolic beginning always lends itself to gestures of positive change, improving the ways we look after ourselves and others.
We have had a very restorative time on and in the water. Sailing, swimming, and just being... surrounded by pure, vast nature brought us closer to ourselves.

The studio is now open and all classes are on - as usual.
We look forward to seeing you all back at the studio, and/or at one of our special events, courses or retreats.

SPCA asking dog owners to vaccinate their pups

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Are you a dog or puppy owner? SPCA are urgently calling on you to vaccinate them against parvovirus.

Are you a dog or puppy owner? SPCA are urgently calling on you to vaccinate them against parvovirus.

SPCA New Zealand say:
We’re seeing more and more cases of the highly contagious and potentially fatal canine parvovirus (parvo) around the country as we face a third outbreak in as many years. Parvo can remain on surfaces for up to a year, so dogs are at constant risk if they’re unvaccinated, or if their vaccinations lapse. Please ensure your dogs are protected against this heartbreaking illness, and book your vaccines and boosters as soon as possible. It could be the difference between life and death.
