What is the difference between a foam and spring sofa bed mattress?
A foam sofa bed mattress, such as those offered by Koala, provides contouring comfort and pressure relief; a spring sofa bed mattress uses coils for a traditional, supportive feel.
Foam sofa bed mattresses, used by modern furniture brands like Koala, Burrow, and Joybird, typically offer greater flexibility for easy folding, contouring support, and motion isolation for a more comfortable sleep.
Spring sofa bed mattresses rely on inner coils to provide a firmer, bouncier feel and generally allow for more airflow, which can help keep the sleeping surface cooler.
Many customers find foam mattresses preferable for sofa beds due to their lighter weight and ability to work with different sofa mechanisms.
