There are many different kinds of sleeping mattresses available in the market like air mattresses, coil mattresses and the memory foam products. Since sleep is a very vital part of our lives and the quality of the sleep depends on sleeping mattress used, it is a good idea to make a comparison between different types of mattresses available. To choose which mattress suits an individual in the best way, it is important to know about their features. In this article we will compare an air mattress and a coil mattress.
* Coil mattresses are traditional and have been used for long time. A coil mattress has many small coils/springs inside the mattress. An air mattress is a new piece of technology. Air mattresses have inflatable air chambers inside.
* The pressure exerted by the coils on our body is uneven where as some air mattresses are self adjusting and they distribute the pressure evenly across the surface regardless of our body type.
* Coil type begin to sag after 2 or 3 years of usage as they contain tiny springs which lose its elasticity over a period of time. Air mattress can be advantageous as they do not sag with time and they have a longer life cycle.
* Top quality air mattresses are based on self adjusting technology which adjusts itself according to the body irrespective of the body type, sleeping position providing comfort and support. Coil mattress can be supple or firm and are often recommended by doctors for people with back problems.
* While coil beds should be rotated once every 3-4 months to reduce the wear and tear, with air mattresses there is no need to rotate air beds as they have air chambers which make it last very long and reduce the wear and tear.
Now that you know the major differences between an air and a coil mattress types, you can go ahead and choose the one that suits you the best. Remember, a good bed is very important for a good sleep.
