All about Bonnel mattresses

Having made the decision to buy a new mattress, everyone understands that not only the appearance, but also the internal filling, that is, the basis of the product, is an important aspect, therefore they try to choose a design where the price and quality are optimally balanced. This category includes mattresses with a base "Bonnel", represented by a wide range of models from European and domestic manufacturers.

The base of "Bonnel" consists of springs in the shape of an hourglass, the center of which is compressed during loading, and the rest of the structure provides strong and high-quality support. The springs are connected to each other, as a rule, by means of a solid frame along the entire perimeter, which also strengthens the entire structure as a whole. Steel wire with strong knots can also be used as a connecting element. The weaving of the springs occurs in a certain sequence, which prevents the unpleasant creak and sagging, which are observed in old types of mattresses produced 20-30 years ago.

The system with dependent springs is a classic that is widely used in the production of mattresses and furniture. Bonnel mattresses are durable, practical and inexpensive, but this does not mean at all that designs with such a base are of poor quality. To understand how comfortable and good mattresses with a spring block are, it is enough to pay attention to all their advantages.

• Durability. Mattresses with springs connected to each other can last 12-15 years.

• Ability to withstand heavy loads. Due to the effect of "progressive elasticity", the mattress with dependent springs under heavy load (more than 115-120 kg) becomes more rigid, which ensures even distribution.

• Reinforced steel frame. Due to such a frame, the product does not deform, does not loosen even after a decade of operation.

• Acceptable cost. Bonnel mattresses are affordable.

• High quality ventilation system. The mattress has an almost hollow base, which ensures proper air circulation, and also forms a protective barrier against the accumulation of moisture and foreign odors.

Initially, Bonnel spring modules were designed to completely replace obsolete wadded mattresses, but over time, rapid improvements across the board have made them reliable, practical and competitive with many other more expensive designs.

If you have doubts about which type of mattress to choose, you can draw an analogy between several types, for example, compare mats with dependent and independent springs.

If we review the mat with dependent springs, then it is worth highlighting the less noticeable orthopedic effect, long service life, the ability to withstand increased loads, as well as the low cost of the product. When choosing a design, it is necessary to determine what functions and properties the mattress should have - if you just want comfort, safety during sleep and rest, then the module with the "Bonnel" base will be an excellent solution at no extra cost.

Bonnel spring mattresses are available in one-sided and two-sided versions. Products with one-sided surface are widely used in hotels, sanatoriums, children's institutions, and constructions on two sides, characterized by high quality, safety and comfort, are ideal for houses and apartments.

Orthopedic mattresses with the base "Bonnel", offered by different manufacturing factories, are divided into two main categories according to the type of weaving of springs.

• Four-turn models. This weaving is used in more budgetary models.

• Five-turn models. This weave is used in modern designs, endowed with good splendor and elasticity.

On average, the block height is 12-15 cm, and the diameter of each spring reaches 8 cm. Depending on the model, the number of springs can be completely different - it varies between 100-150 units per m2. It is the small distance between the springs that is the design feature and advantage of the Bonnel system. In addition, some manufacturers offer sleeping arrangements with a reinforced block of dependent springs. As reinforcement elements, special PPU blocks are used, placed between the spring rows.

By the degree of rigidity, structures with dependent springs are moderately rigid and very rigid. This directly depends on the number of springs in the block. The dimensional grid of structures with dependent springs does not differ from other types of mattresses, so the buyer can purchase a single (80x190, 80x200, 90x190, 90x200 cm), one-and-a-half (110x190, 110x200, 120x190, 120x200, 140x190, 140x200 cm) or double mat (160x200, 160x190, 180x190, 180x200, 200x200 cm).

Mattresses with a system of dependent springs are a rather profitable and practical purchase that is comfortable for both adults and children, the main thing is to choose the right model. In order not to be mistaken during the purchase, it is recommended to adhere to the elementary selection rules, taking into account several criteria.

• Options. The dimensions of the spring mat should exactly match the internal parameters of the bed or sleeping area of ​​a sagging old sofa.

• The degree of hardness. For people with low weight, a product with medium hardness is recommended, and children need the most rigid mattress.

• The type and quality of the filler. For allergy sufferers, coconut coir will be appropriate, for connoisseurs of comfort - a latex layer and Memory Foam. If you want to save money, you can buy a mattress with a layer of thermal felt and polyurethane foam.

• The quality of the mattress topper, performing not only an aesthetic role, but also a protective one, since the accessory will prevent the penetration of moisture, dust, as well as the accumulation of bacteria, mites and the formation of mold.

• Manufacturer. Often, sleeping products from trusted manufacturers are not much more expensive than modules from unknown factories.

• Hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly materials used. These indicators are important if the buyer has a tendency to allergic reactions.

By itself, a mattress with a spring block "Bonnel" is completely unpretentious in maintenance, however, basic rules of operation and maintenance are necessary - do not exceed the permissible load and periodically turn over for uniform wear.
