Folding mattresses

The main purpose of mattresses is to provide comfortable conditions for a good sleep. On the market there are many modifications of such goods, differing in cost and quality. Among all this diversity a special place is occupied by a folding mattress, which has no particular differences from the standard modifications.

The folding mattress is a special surface for sleeping and relaxing. A distinctive feature of this product is the presence of several independent sections, which are interconnected by a fabric cloth.

This design makes it easy to transform it into a more compact system. It should be noted that the number of sections may vary depending on the purpose of the mattress.

Folding mattresses are very practical, so they have gained immense popularity among the majority of users. These products have several positive characteristics:

1. The folded mattress takes up relatively little space.. It should be noted that this does not apply to spring modifications.
2. Moisture resistance. This feature is not present in all models. Often, only those mattresses that will be used on the street, for example, for outdoor recreation, are moisture resistant.
3. Relatively light weight. This makes it easy to fold and move the structure if necessary.
4. Thickness. There are folding mattresses, in which this value does not exceed 5-10 cm. They are very practical and easily transformed.

Such products are very popular because they are universal. Today, folding designs are used to solve various problems:

1. The organization of a berth for guests. To do this, simply put it on the floor and lay a sheet. Please note that these designs can also be placed on the bed. It all depends on its thickness and quality of performance.
2. Arrangement of surfaces during rest. Thin models are specifically designed for this. They are equipped with several blocks, which allows them to fine-tune both under the bed and the summer lounger on the street.

Folding mattresses gradually gaining popularity and appear in every home. It should be understood that these models have practically no differences from standard products.

Depending on the type of construction, folding mattresses can be divided into several types:

1. Spring construction. This includes systems with dependent and independent springs. The latter type of systems is more common, as it has high-quality orthopedic properties. If you need a product only for the periodic arrangement of guests, you can find on the market living room designs with a spring block of the “bonnel” type.
2. Springless. This group of folding mattresses is very common.The design consists of several independent blocks, which are made of natural or synthetic materials. In this case, the filler is different elasticity, so it easily supports the body. Such products are much lighter than their spring counterparts, since they are made of foamy substances.

Another criterion for the classification of mattresses is their rigidity. This characteristic is not universal, therefore it does not change in any physical units. But conventionally, her mattresses are divided into soft, medium-hard and hard products.

The main criterion when choosing any mattress is the type of filler. Today, to solve such problems using several popular substances:

1. Latex. This material is hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly.The substance has qualitative indicators of elasticity, and also supports the body well during sleep.
2. Polyurethane foam. This product is often called single piece latex. Depending on the production technology, the elasticity of polyurethane may vary. Based on this, the index of the surface hardness of the mattress varies. The service life of this substance reaches 10 years. It should be noted that the foam very quickly absorbs moisture from the air, so you should avoid using the mattress in a humid environment.
3. Coconut coir. This product is a fiber of natural origin. The material is very durable and can serve up to 15 years. Coir practically does not rot, and also prevents the formation of mold and mites. It should be noted that this substance is the toughest filler among all used in mattresses. Surfaces with such a filler are recommended only to people who have problems with the spine. If you do not need such rigidity, you should give preference to softer modifications.
4. Coir and latex mixture. To reduce stiffness, many manufacturers place these substances in several layers.This allows for optimal orthopedic performance.

Properly selected surface for sleeping is the key to a good and pleasant sleep. Today the market offers many modifications, the purchase of which is important, first of all, to take into account user feedback. To purchase a good model, you should be guided by several basic rules:

1. Hard coir models buy only for children up to 3 years old or for people with back diseases.
2. If you need guest folding mattressgive preference products of medium hardness.
3. Check the quality of workmanship. Products must be made of safe fillers and fabrics only. Not recommended to buy synthetic covers.
4. Be sure to test the mattress. If this action is prohibited in the store, it may indicate that the products are of poor quality.
5. Consult a doctorif orthopedic properties are important to you. It will help you choose all the characteristics of the mattress from hardness to filler. It is important to understand that the cost of an orthopedic mattress will be much higher than the usual folding design on the springs.Buy the latter in those cases if you plan to use it several times a year.
6. Be sure to consider the environment of the mattress. If you plan to operate it at the dacha, then the product must withstand constant loads, be easily cleaned of dirt and be water-repellent.
