Rating of the best manufacturers of orthopedic mattresses

Not everyone pays enough attention to the choice of a mattress. But in vain. In many ways, your sleep and back condition depend on it. What to look for when choosing a mattress? Which firms offer the most worthy options?

Why Orthopedic?

This is one of the most common questions: "Is an ordinary mattress really that bad?" The choice, of course, is up to you. But first, let's look at the benefits of special mattresses.

A good mattress must have excellent orthopedic properties.

The modern lifestyle has a very negative effect on the condition of the spine. And even age does not matter: both young people and people of the older generation for the most part lead a sedentary lifestyle, sit for a long time in the same position at the computer. In addition, the spine does not receive adequate "nutrition", the required amount of calcium and phosphorus, and this inevitably leads to destruction. As a result, at a young age, people are diagnosed with scoliosis, osteochondrosis and curvature of the spinal column. If all of the above "troubles" are ignored, over time you can simply lose the ability to move independently. And this is not an exaggeration.

The filling of the mattress must be made of natural materials.

The use of an orthopedic mattress will ensure that your spine is restored during a night's rest. Thanks to special fillers and their properties, during sleep the mattress takes the shape of your body and perfectly absorbs it.

Depending on the model, the service life of such mattresses ranges from 5 to 12 years. So we can safely say that they are quite payback.

What to look for when choosing

The market offers a wide range of thicknesses, fillings and designs. So you will definitely find the model that suits you perfectly. It is important to remember that an orthopedic mattress is not a panacea for all ills, and not a miracle cure. It will not cure your scoliosis or restore youth to the spine, but it will not aggravate the problems that already exist, and will provide a comfortable night's rest.

The price should correspond to the quality of the product (reliable design, high-quality assembly).

Thickness and size

The thickness and size of the selected model depends on the dimensions of your bed. Therefore, first they buy a bed, and then they choose a mattress for it. It must fully correspond to the parameters of the bed: do not puff up, because it is too large, and do not lie lonely in the middle of the bed, leaving a lot of free space at the edges.

The mattress must fully correspond to the size of the bed base, otherwise there is a high risk of displacement of the springs in the innerspring mattress and deformation in the springless mattress.

Often the quality of the mattress and its orthopedic "abilities" depend on the thickness. Models up to 10 cm are an exclusively children's option, not recommended for use by adults, since the effect, if any, is minimal. The height of "adult" models starts from 12 cm. Universal mattresses are 15-25 cm thick.

Upholstery should be both dense and soft - give preference to natural fabrics.

A person with a large body mass creates serious pressure on the mattress, and in this case it is better if the thickness is 15 cm or more.Note that expensive models reach 40 cm in depth and are distinguished by increased convenience and a long period of operation.

Depending on the size, mattresses are divided into:

  • Single (90x190 cm);
  • Double (160x190 cm);
  • One and a half (120x190 cm).

The presence of handles for turning over makes it much easier to carry and change the position of the mattress.

Rigidity

Another important factor is rigidity. It depends on her how complete your sleep will be. Thin mattresses are inconvenient during rest and are not suitable for an adult. If there are serious problems with the spine, it is best to get the hardest model. Well, mattresses of medium hardness are in the greatest demand.

Low firmness mattresses are filled with cotton wool, latex or foam rubber. The price of such models cannot be called budgetary, but useful properties are clearly not enough. Therefore, they are rarely purchased, as a rule, for people with low weight and for a short rest.

low firmness mattress
Weighing no more than 60 kg, experts advise opting for soft mattresses. Latex or coconut hair are great fillers.

Medium firm mattresses - better quality and more durable. They guarantee comfort and good rest. If the model has independent spring sections, they are usually filled with latex or polyurethane foam.

medium firm mattress
If the weight does not exceed 90 kg, products with a medium degree of rigidity are suitable. Most often they contain both latex and coira.

High firmness mattresses are usually filled with coconut fiber (coir). Such models are not recommended only for elderly people, as they are too rigid. But for older consumers, you can buy a mattress filled with coir and latex, or other composites.

high hardness mattress
If the buyer has pain in the lower back, neck or dorsal spine, the mattress should be firm.

Filler

It is the filler that affects the quality of the mattress, its durability and cost. The "content" of the mattress can be natural or synthetic.

Coir. The most common natural filler. Unsprung mattresses filled with coconut coir are very hard. Most often, they are recommended by specialists, or they are purchased by those who like to sleep on something hard. The main advantage of coconut filler is environmental friendliness and naturalness. The fibers are perfectly air-permeable, not susceptible to the appearance of fungus, do not deform, very strong and durable. For greater softness and elasticity, the fibers are combined with latex.

coconut coir
Ideally, natural latex and coconut fiber (coconut coir) should be used as filler. They make the mattress soft and anatomical.

Important! Sometimes manufacturers fill mattresses with pressed coir - this composition is of poor quality and short-lived.

Polyurethane foam. This filler is an ordinary foam rubber, only of increased rigidity. It is in demand by all manufacturers and appreciated by users. Even well-known firms often use it for their products. Durability and maximum comfort are undeniable benefits. And the affordable price is a nice bonus.

polyurethane foam mattress
Instead of natural fillers, polyurethane foam (polyurethane foam or, more simply, foam rubber) is used.

Wool. Another natural material especially appreciated by warmth lovers. Manufacturers combine the "filling" in such a way that the wool is only on one side. In this case, the multifunctionality of the product is guaranteed: in winter you put the mattress with the woolen side up, and in summer it is vice versa. At the same time, the excellent orthopedic properties of the product are preserved.

wool mattress
If the living environment of the buyer is a temperate zone, the mattress should be double-sided and covered with linen, wool or silk.

Seaweed. This filler, unique in its properties, has become popular relatively recently.Algae improve respiration and even boost immunity. This mattress is antibacterial and durable.

Algae as a filler of an orthopedic mattress provides a stable product shape, this material is resistant to abrasion.

Combined "filling". As a rule, several layers of different composition are used for multilayer models. Then, to achieve a certain effect, the fillers are stacked in layers in a given order. Most often, coconut coir and latex are combined.

cobined mattress
In such models, layers of fillers made of latex, coconut coir, polyurethane foam, struttofiber are combined.

Memory material is a real know-how. Such fillers have appeared relatively recently, but have already gained popularity. The composition is a kind of foam. When you wake up and get up, the surface will gradually return to its original appearance. Perhaps today it is the most durable material, because there is simply nothing to "break". And if you observe certain conditions of humidity and temperature, then such a mattress will serve faithfully for more than one generation. The degree of firmness in such mattresses can be different, so carefully read the description and recommendations. The main "disadvantage" of such models is the high price.

memory foam mattress
A shape memory mattress is a product with a filler called memoriform or memorix.

Latex. Among the models with latex filling, you can find inexpensive options. Moreover, both natural latex and its synthetic analogue are offered on the market. Natural is made from the sap of a rubber tree, and after a long and specific processing, such a filler in structure becomes similar to a honeycomb - a dense, breathable and absolutely harmless mass.
