The Best Pocket Sprung Mattresses in the UK (2026)
Pocket sprung mattresses use springs sealed in individual fabric pockets, so each spring moves on its own. That gives targeted support, good airflow and less roll-together than open-coil springs.
What to look for
- Spring count - more springs can mean more targeted support, but the figure is usually quoted for one size and is not the only thing that matters.
- A comfort layer - foam or fillings on top set the feel.
- Breathability - sprung designs allow more airflow than solid foam.
- Firmness to match your weight and position.

Frequently asked questions
How many springs should a mattress have?
Spring count is usually quoted for a king size, and more is not automatically better. A 1,000-spring mattress with good fillings can feel better than a higher count with thin comfort layers. Treat it as one factor among several.
Are pocket sprung mattresses cooler?
Generally yes - the gaps between springs let air move more freely than solid foam, which helps if you sleep warm.
