Review of manufacturers
The most famous manufacturers of orthopedic mattresses in Russia are five companies: Askona, Consul, Dreamline, Ormatek and Toris .
Askona is the largest Russian plant. Famous brands are produced on its premises: Serta, IKEA, King Koil and others. The cost of their products is higher than most of their competitors.
Ormatek is the second largest production. Their prices for popular models are always slightly lower than their competitors. In general, the company sells products at the most reasonable prices. Dreamline specializes in the production of bedroom furniture and orthopedic mattresses at a very affordable price.
Toris and Consul are also quite large and well-known factories. Mattresses from Consul are on average 30% more expensive than similar models. Toris offers the most modest selection of mattresses, but at an adequate price.
Among foreign companies, the leaders are Sealy , Serta (in Russia, orthopedic mattresses under this brand are manufactured by the Askona ) and the French Simmons , known here as Sleepeezee .
Which orthopedic mattresses are best avoided?
- Products from unknown manufacturers. This is an important point, since small companies do not have the necessary production capacity and resort to manual assembly. It is impossible to make a high-quality mattress this way.
- Orthopedic mattresses without an inspection zipper, which makes it possible to check the filling. Often, unscrupulous manufacturers lay ordinary foam rubber instead of the declared felt or coconut, and instead of five- or six-turn springs, they use four-turn springs. Such products have nothing to do with mattresses intended for the prevention of diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
- Persistent chemical smell. Low-quality glue may be used in the production of mattresses. Naturally, there can be no talk of a “sweet sleep” on such a mattress.

Advantages and disadvantages of modern latex mattresses The most detailed comparison of spring and springless mattresses Comparison of soft and hard mattresses for sleeping. With examples and sensations Circadian rhythms. Why do we sleep at night and stay awake during the day?
Mattresses are built on different bases:
- on a spring block with automatic elements or Multipocket springs;
- based on a natural or artificial latex block in combination with coconut coir or monolithic slabs.
In the process of making mattresses, several types of materials are used to produce the top protective layer (the fabric depends on the price of the product): jacquard quilted on synthetic padding with protection against ticks, tactilely pleasant cotton velor, knitwear quilted with silver thread.
The most popular and in demand mattresses of the Primavera brand:
- Primavera Incanto – from RUB 73,118.
- Primavera Praiano – from RUB 96,171.
- Primavera Sorrento – from RUB 44,166.
Materlux
The Italian manufacturer Materlux, in addition to the banal “quality, technology, comfort...” is distinguished by the widest selection of models to suit absolutely any wishes. Just look at the catalog menu:
Materlux’s assortment also includes extremely budget models starting from 20 thousand rubles. But I recommend comparing their qualities with other analogues on the market; Materlux is not a leader in this price segment.
The best soft spring orthopedic mattresses
| Mattress Ascona Balance Smart (Balance Smart) 90 x 200 cm Average price: 2505 RUR Advantages: One of the most affordable orthopedic spring mattresses is made on the basis of “Bonnel”, which elastically supports the spine and prevents its deformation. The softness of the springs and the elasticity of the sleeping surface ensures a comfortable rest. Noise and friction in the mattress are eliminated; the coils of the springs do not touch each other under load due to their bicone shape. The softness of the mattress is given by polyurethane foam slabs, protected from the spring block by spunboard - a durable, non-toxic, highly breathable and environmentally friendly material. Polyurethane foam does not put back pressure on the muscles and does not interfere with free blood circulation. Maximum load capacity 90 kg. Disadvantages: Slippery coating, it is better to use sheets with elastic bands. Reviews: “I purchased it on the advice of a doctor, after spinal surgery I can’t sleep on regular mattresses, I need normal support, otherwise I can’t get out of bed. But I sleep great on it, it’s very comfortable, take it for prevention.” “Cheap doesn’t always mean bad. The mattress performed excellently during use.” | 9.9 / 10 Rating |

Pros and cons of products
Springless mattresses are offered in a wide range. They have the following advantages:
- strength and durability. There is nothing to break in them, so they can last more than 10 years;
- the materials used in mattresses are not subject to electrification and do not create a magnetic field;
- due to the absence of metal parts, the products do not create noise;
- the ability to choose a surface with different degrees of elasticity;
- ensuring optimal load on the spine;
- resistance to moisture and temperature changes. If the material absorbs moisture, it evaporates very quickly;
- when using high-quality filler, springless mattresses will not deform or sag;
- compactness. They are convenient to store and transport.
Products of this type also have disadvantages:
- price. Natural hypoallergenic filler will have a high cost;
- inability to check the quality of the filler. For expensive mattresses, the cover cannot be removed. It is easy to avoid difficulties if you purchase products from a trusted manufacturer;
- The maximum weight that the mattress can withstand is 120 kg. Exceeding the specified figure will quickly render the product unusable;
- The layers of a springless mattress are glued together with a special compound. While it is new, it may have an unpleasant, pungent odor. After some time it disappears.
All the pros and cons of the mattress depend on the manufacturer, the quality of the filler used and the adhesive composition.

What to look for when choosing a mattress
When a person decides to buy a new mattress, of course he wants to buy the most fashionable and comfortable product. He believes that now he will have a good night's sleep, because no forces will act on the spine, forcing him to take an uncomfortable and incorrect position. But in reality it turns out that my back and neck are still stiff, and besides, allergies have appeared. What's the problem? Yes, you just need to know how to choose the right orthopedic mattress.
Side stiffness
Today there are several levels of rigidity.
- Increased. Recommended for back diseases and osteochondrosis. Sleeping on such a surface is not very comfortable, but it perfectly supports problem areas. Such mattresses must be purchased for medical reasons, or if a person’s weight exceeds one hundred kilograms.
- Average. The best option for a healthy person who has an average build and dimensions.
- Low. Soft or moderately soft mattresses are intended for older people and children from three to fifteen years old.
The hardness of a mattress directly depends on its filling. There is no need to overpay for a reinforced spring block design or a super-fashionable hard “filling” if a person is of moderate weight. It is enough to choose a softer model with latex filling, the main thing is that the quality of the product is at its best.
Choose a mattress according to your preferences. There is no need to suffer on a hard surface if you are used to a soft surface. There is no need to follow fashion trends.
Filler
Latex, polyurethane foam, and coconut coir are usually used as fillers. Thermal felt is used between the filler layer and the springs as an additional protective layer.
Pay attention to the naturalness of the material, since artificial ones often cause allergies, even if their characteristics convincingly state “hypoallergenic”.

Most often, a combined filler consisting of several layers is used. They can be fastened together using special equipment, but sometimes they are simply glued together. You will immediately notice such a mattress by its specific smell, which can be toxic and harmful to the body.
Upholstery
Give preference to natural fabrics - cotton, linen. Synthetics will not allow you to get a good night's sleep - the body will not be able to breathe. The upholstery fabric should be durable and non-marking.
It is recommended to purchase a removable cover along with the mattress, which will protect the upholstery from dirt and stains. You can wash it at any time, and the mattress itself will look like new.
Number of springs per place
The more springs there are, especially if they are independent and each located in a separate pocket, the better, since they will respond more “sensitively” to load distribution.
The standard is 256 springs per square meter, but there can be more than a thousand.
Maximum weight supported
Each mattress is designed for a specific load. The heavier the person, the harder the surface should be. Ideally, before purchasing, you should lie down on a mattress and check how evenly the weight is distributed and how deeply the springs sink. This is why it is not recommended to buy mattresses online – you won’t be able to sit or lie on them remotely.
For a person of average weight, a mattress filled with latex or combined with coconut fibers is suitable. If the weight exceeds a hundred kilograms, then you need to opt for hard mattresses made of coconut coir with a reinforced spring block.
Double mattresses for spouses often have different firmness zones so that the lighter person does not roll under the side of the second spouse.
Availability of handles for turning over
Periodically, the mattress needs to be turned over to avoid deformation, especially if the spring block has independent springs. Some models are so heavy that you only need two people to turn them over.
Agree that doing this is much more convenient and easier if there are special loop handles.
Memory effect
This innovative coating was created back in the seventies of the last century for astronauts in order to reduce overload on the body. Now memory foam material or memory foam can be found in real life.
The meaning of the effect is that the surface “remembers” the position of a person’s body in a dream and his weight, thereby providing comfortable “notches and depressions”, and then restores its original appearance.

Such “smart tricks” will cost you a lot, but they are not always useful or advisable. The disadvantages include high cost, warming properties, which is not at all good in hot weather, the possibility of allergic reactions, as well as unusual enveloping sensations.
The best hard spring orthopedic mattresses
| Mattress DreamLine Eco Strong Bonnel 90 x 200 cm Average price: 6202 RUR Advantages: From the name of the Strong line alone, it is clear that these are “strong” mattresses.

The orthopedic mattress can withstand up to 150 kg of weight per 1 bed and a difference in the weight of sleepers of more than 25 kg, which means that it is perfect for couples with a large difference in weight, everyone will feel comfortable.

There is no viewing zipper, please check when ordering. Reviews: “My husband’s weight is decent, at 100 kg it’s off scale! I chose this mattress. The previous one lasted only two years.

Where to buy
Modern people are making more and more purchases through online stores, and they also buy mattresses. Customer reviews say that it is fast and convenient. No need to spend a lot of time traveling to the shops. Sitting at home, you can choose the model you like, and even save money.
The only, but very significant, drawback may be that you will not be able to test it before purchasing. And what to do after your mattress turns out to be uncomfortable?
Such purchases may be justified if you already have a mattress from such a company, but you decide to purchase another one or have tested it with relatives or friends.

Fillers
The filling can be such traditional natural materials as felt, wool, horsehair, and artificial ones (foam rubber, synthetic winterizer). More modern latex and coir are also used to fill mattresses. Which to choose? Reviews say that the mattress will be soft if it is made of layers of latex 3 cm high. If there is a layer of coir on the block, then its surface will be quite hard. And if you have 3 cm of latex, one of coir, and then a spring, you will get a mattress of medium hardness.
In order for air to move freely throughout the entire volume of the mattress, many models have ventilation holes.
When purchasing products made from such materials, you need to ask for certificates of conformity.
