Pocket springs are a type of spring system that is used in mattresses and upholstered furniture. They are often considered to be a step up from traditional coil springs, as they provide a number of advantages in terms of comfort, support, and durability with the main benefits of pocket springs being that they offer superior levels of support. This is because each spring is individually encased in its own fabric pocket, meaning that it is able to move independently of the others. This allows the springs to contour to your body more effectively, providing targeted support where you need it most.
