Coil springs
|
I finally got bored enough that I decided to spend some time boning up on coil springs / innerspring mattresses. Time to learn about Bonnell springs, coil counts, wire gauge, and whatever else is important in the world of innerspring mattresses... This message was modified Sep 20, 2007 by haysdb

Re: Coil springs
| This website from L&P bedding (Legget & Platt) really explains their products well. You can click on each one of their innerspring systems to see details, including illustrations. I have the LuraFlex open offset coil. Supportive, but conforming.<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><A href="http://www.beddingcomponents.com/innersprings.asp"><SPAN style="COLOR: #810081">Leggett & Platt - Bedding Group</SPAN></A> |

Here is a picture of a continue coil system NOT made by Leggett & Platt WicklineBedding.com Superlastic is the trade name for the continuous coil system found in Sleep Wickline Mattresses... its was developed in Sweden in cooperation with Rolls Royce. Conventional spring support was not enough for this ultra premium car, so engineers develoed a continuous wire product for greater support and durability. The same quality and support features holds true for the Wickline Innnerspring System.  |

Thanks for a great link BeddyBye Leggett & Platt Innersprings Descriptions of each of Leggett & Platt's innerspring products. LURA-FLEX™ Lura-Flex™ is perhaps the best Offset design spring system available. Each coil flexes independently for more sensitivity to body contours, and more durability with less friction.

How did you get that link into your post??? I tried! I notice L&P has a new coil called Verti-Coil. I wonder how that is compared to the LuraFlex. I love researching this kind of stuff! This message was modified Sep 27, 2007 by a moderator

"Remember: Once you're asleep, every mattress feels the same." LOL! This thread is a good short primer. Here's another guide and it also discusses foundations a little: http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/factsheet/HI_08.pdf Here's another, more global, perspective: http://www.mattressinside.com/orthopedic.html This message was modified Aug 30, 2010 by TC2334
