How to Choose the Right Open Coil Mattress for Your Child
When selecting an open coil mattress for your child, there are several factors to consider to ensure proper support and comfort during their crucial growth years. Here are some practical tips:
Firmness Level
Children generally require a firmer mattress surface to maintain proper spinal alignment. Look for mattresses with a firmness rating of medium-firm to firm. This will provide the necessary support while still allowing for some conforming comfort.
Coil Count
The number of coils in the mattress is an important consideration. A higher coil count typically translates to better support and motion isolation. For children, aim for a coil count of at least 300-400 in a twin-size mattress.
Edge Support
Good edge support is essential for children who tend to sleep closer to the edges or sit on the side of the bed. Look for mattresses with reinforced edges to prevent sagging or rolling off.
Mattress Height
Consider the mattress height based on your child's age and size. For younger children, a lower mattress height can make it easier for them to get in and out of bed independently. As they grow older, a taller mattress may be more suitable.
Breathability
Children can be prone to sweating during sleep. Look for open coil mattresses with breathable materials, such as natural fibers or cooling technologies, to promote airflow and prevent overheating.
Durability
Open coil mattresses can be more prone to sagging over time compared to other types of mattresses. Choose a quality mattress with a sturdy coil system and high-density foam layers to ensure long-lasting support.
Safety Standards
Make sure the mattress meets all necessary safety standards for children's products, such as flammability regulations and the absence of harmful chemicals or materials.
Remember, it's always a good idea to involve your child in the selection process, if possible, to ensure their comfort preferences are considered. Additionally, don't hesitate to consult with a pediatrician or sleep specialist for personalised recommendations based on your child's specific needs.
Kids' Open Coil Mattress Sizes
When shopping for an open coil mattress for your child, it's essential to consider the appropriate size to ensure a comfortable and supportive sleeping environment. Here are the common mattress sizes available for children in the UK:
Toddler Mattress
Toddler mattresses are designed for children transitioning from a crib to a bed. These mattresses are typically 70 cm x 140 cm, providing ample space for a toddler to move around while still fitting snugly in a toddler bed frame.
Shorty Mattress
Shorty mattresses, also known as small single mattresses, are slightly longer than toddler mattresses, measuring 75 cm x 175 cm. They are suitable for older children or those who have outgrown a toddler bed but are not yet ready for a full-size single mattress.
Small Single Mattress
Small single mattresses, also referred to as cabin beds, are 90 cm x 190 cm. This size is a popular choice for children's bedrooms, providing enough room for growing kids while still accommodating smaller spaces.
Single Mattress
A standard single mattress measures 90 cm x 190 cm (3' x 6'3"), the same size as a small single mattress. This size is commonly used for older children and teenagers, offering ample space for comfortable sleep.
Small Double Mattress (120 cm x 190 cm)
Small double mattresses are ideal for older children or teenagers who need more space to stretch out. They also work well for smaller bedrooms where a standard double bed would be too large. This size can also be a good option for a guest bed in a child’s room.
