Understanding Serta’s Line of Innerspring Mattresses

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

When it comes to getting a comfortable night’s sleep, all mattresses are not created equal. Serta puts a lot of effort into building every mattress. The first thing to understanding when shopping for a new mattress is the size. It is easier than you think to mistake one size for another. There are two different Twin sizes (Twin & Twin XL) and there are two different King sizes (King and Cal [California] King). Plus, the difference in length between a Twin and Queen is a mere 5 inches.

Innerspring Mattresses: Springs for Snoozing

Friday, September 18th, 2009

The modern mattress has come a long way from the days of being filled with wool, feathers, and a variety of other natural materials. Nowadays, mattresses are constructed using the traditional innerspring system, latex foam, and visco-elastic memory foam. With so many different types to choose from, searching for the perfect mattress can keep you awake at night.

Let’s take a closer look at the innerspring mattress, which is the most common mattress in the bedding industry. Providing the proper spinal alignment while you sleep, innerspring mattresses consist of a spring zone and a comfort layer. Underneath the ticking—the heavy cloth that encases the mattress—are the comfort layers that cushion your body as you sleep.

There are four different spring designs used in innerspring mattresses:

Coil Construction

The overall thickness of the coil is called the gauge, and is the determining factor for support and firmness. The higher the gauge number, the thicker and stronger the wire used to make the coil. In contrast, a mattress coil rated at a higher number will be thinner and weaker. Confused? Here’s a chart to sort this all out:

Coil Construction

Unlike other mattress manufacturers, Serta’s individually wrapped (Marshall) coil mattresses use advanced twice-tempered steel for increased durability. Double-heat tempering is the manufacturing process of heating and cooling the coils twice to ensure they retain their proper shape over time.

Springs in your Sleep

As a guideline, the minimum number of coils in a mattress should be 300 for a Full, 375 for a Queen, and 450 for a King. Although it might seem like the more springs in a mattress the more support you’ll have, coil count is not nearly as critical today as it once was. The combination of coil count and gauge along with the construction of the coils is a more important factor in determining the overall support and comfort level of the mattress.

What Size is Your Sleep?

Friday, September 18th, 2009

If  you’ve tossed and turned one too many times recently or woken up with a stiff neck or back, it’s probably time for a new mattress. And if you think flipping or rotating that old mattress is going to make it come back to life—you’re mistaken. What’s worse is that old mattress is robbing your mind and body from performing at its maximum capability.

The first thing you need to know before deciding on a new mattress is the size. If your mattress doesn’t fit your box spring and bed frame, you’re going to lose even more sleep. Since most people sleep better when their partner isn’t being a bed hog, your next mattress should be the largest size that will fit both your bedroom and your budget.

Because most mattress tags rarely list the dimensions, the best thing to do is use a tape measure. Grab that tape measure from your garage and measure both the width and the length of your old mattress. Don’t forget to write these measurements down on paper because you’re bound to forget them by the time you reach your local hhgregg store. Considering there are six standard bed sizes, guessing could cost you a lot of money. Here’s a handy chart to match your measurements to a name:

Mattress Size Chart

Now that you know the size of your mattress, is it the right size? A general rule to follow is to add six inches to your height and then select a mattress by length. If you’re 6-feet tall, a Queen or King bed should put you to sleep.

If you’re choosing a new mattress for your growing teenager, a Twin XL is the same length as a Queen or a King mattress, but still provides plenty of width (39”). A great addition to a child’s room is a bunk bed—if you’ve just purchased one or it’s time to replace the mattresses, two Twin (39” x 75”) or one Twin and one Full (54” x 75”) will replace most original bedding.

Queen and King are the perfect size for couples. In fact, the smallest mattress size for a couple should not fall below that of Queen (60” wide x 80” long). Sleeping on a mattress that is too short for your height or too narrow can interrupt a good night’s sleep. For that reason, it is common for singles to sleep in Queen or King-sized beds to allow for plenty of room.

You’ve experienced what it’s like to miss out on sleep from an uncomfortable mattress—aches and pains, droopy eyelids, and the inability to concentrate. Sleep deprivation and poor sleeping habits are usually the first sign of a low-quality or worn-out mattress. The average person spends as much as one-third of their life getting some shuteye—make those hours you’re asleep count.
