No matter what you choose, it’s important to remember that mattress technology has come a long way. Both innerspring and memory foam has improved and are certainly both great options for a good night’s sleep.
The newest beds contour to the sleeper’s shape and provide good spinal alignment and help with pain management.
Both types of mattresses are comfortable and provide support. Innerspring tends to have more bounce back than memory foam since memory foam absorbs pressure and slowly regains its shape. Memory foam tends to feel like you sink into it and innerspring holds you up more.
As we mentioned, memory foam holds onto heat whereas pocket coils have good airflow. Innerspring mattresses also tend to be a little less expensive but, with newer technology, the foam tends to manage heat and you can choose from various firmness levels if you do not like the sinking feeling.
Many sleepers suffer from back and neck pain so choosing a mattress with appropriate support is helpful. Innersprings with Bonnell or other continuous coils tend to offer less support and do not do as good of a job as memory foam in providing spinal alignment. That said, the pocket coils are generally as good as memory foam. Your decision may come down to the overall feel. Memory foam is a little softer and the pocket coils springier. Both will help with back pain but it will be up to you with the overall feel you prefer.

There’s no clear answer to which of these mattress types is better. Both innerspring and memory foam have their pros and cons and each works for various sleepers and their styles.
Both offer advantages and disadvantages depending on the qualities you are looking for and what you are most comfortable with.
Memory foam helps people with chronic back pain while innersprings are great if you’re looking for a firm bed that makes getting in and out easy. Innerspring is more budget-friendly but still offers great support comparable to memory foam.
Decide which works for you based on your own sleep temperature, style of sleep, amount of restlessness, and any other sleep problems that may affect you or your partner.
Your choice should be based on personal preference and what works best for you. Looking at the good and the bad while considering your budget and overall sleep needs helps you choose the right mattress for you.
You may even be able to make up for some of the cons by buying the right bedding and mattress toppers so it’s okay to be flexible. Remember, the goal is to find a mattress that gives both you and partner what you need to enjoy the best sleep possible.
