What is a box spring?
A quality box spring, often also called a hotel bed, ensures a blissful night's sleep and looks beautiful. No wonder that boxsprings are one of the most loved sleep systems in the world!
As the name suggests, a box spring literally means 'a box with springs'. It is an upholstered frame, which consists of a box spring frame with pocket springs. Pocket springs are individually packaged metal springs, which can move independently of each other allowing the sleep system to provide optimal support to your body.
A box spring is a dual-mattress system
Which mattress should you put on box spring? On top of the box spring we place the mattress, also with pocket springs, which are ideally covered with natural and elastic materials. A box spring combination is therefore actually a dual-mattress system: a mattress with pocket springs on an upholstered spring base.
Important advice when choosing a new box spring: don’t choose a combination with a latex, cold foam, memory foam or polyester mattress as this often causes problems.
