Silentnight Miracoil Mattresses

What is a Silentnight Miracoil mattress?

Combining traditional skills and modern research and development, Silentnight have created a range of mattresses that deliver optimum comfort and flawless support, no matter what firmness rating you choose. For over 80 years, Silentnight has been supporting the nation with a range of mattresses and beds to suit all tastes and are continuing to develop new mattress designs. 

Their Miracoil mattresses are one of their best-known spring systems, providing exceptional comfort. Miracoil mattresses feature innovative zoned support, using one long wire wound into twice as many springs as a pocket sprung mattress. These springs run vertically rather than horizontally, so whichever Miracoil mattress you choose (whether it’s soft, medium, firm, or extra firm), it will be firmer in the middle than around the top and bottom. 

The zoned support system is designed so the middle of your body receives more support, while your head and legs rest in a softer zone. This can help support a more neutral sleeping position, no matter how much you weigh or how tall you are. The result is that you wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead.

Should I get a Miracoil mattress?

If you keep getting inadvertently nudged awake by your partner, then a Miracoil mattress may be worth considering. An ideal mattress for couples, the spring-based construction of Miracoil mattresses can help reduce movement across the mattress surface, which can improve quality of sleep significantly.

Described as the 'clever spring system', what makes a Miracoil mattress different to others on the market? The Miracoil provides firm mattress support, with an open coil spring system. This top of the range mattress is extremely comfortable and low maintenance. Easy to take care of, it won’t require flipping, prolonging its lifespan.

For that extra level of comfort, our pillows and mattress toppers are the ultimate companion for all Silentnight Miracoil mattresses, with bed accessories such as memory foam mattress toppers providing the perfect finishing touch.

How is a Miracoil mattress made?

Silentnight doesn’t rest until they’ve found the very best mattresses, and the Miracoil is no different.  The extremely innovative interwoven spring system runs vertically as opposed to the horizontal design of traditional mattresses. This results in a medium to firm mattress which can be classified as highly supportive.

Miracoil mattresses have twice as many springs as standard sprung mattresses. Most mattresses have row after row of circular springs, whilst a Miracoil mattress features interconnecting coil springs that take up less space individually. These create a sturdier and more supportive sleeping surface.

Is Miracoil the same as pocket sprung?

There are key differences between the Miracoil design and pocket sprung mattresses. Silentnight have their own take on the pocket sprung mattress in the form of the Micropocket. The Miracoil is more like an open coil mattress.

The main difference between open coil mattresses and pocket sprung designs is the amount of springs in each. Pocket sprung mattresses tend to have significantly more springs. An open coil mattress such as the Miracoil is a great budget mattress option, providing comfort and support in equal measures.

What are the benefits of a Miracoil mattress?

The unique construction of the mattress type is a big benefit in itself. A popular choice for restless sleepers, the Miracoil sprung mattress system combats tossing and turning in the night, lessening the likelihood of rolling over or losing your sleep position.

With a Miracoil mattress, the edges are as supportive as the centre, giving you more room to roll as you sleep. Because all parts of the mattress are equally strong, you also avoid roll-together, where your partner's sleeping position has an impact on the springs that you're lying on.

A popular option for those looking for firmer support, similar to orthopaedic mattresses, the Miracoil supports a more neutral sleeping position, offering zoned support to each key area of the body, helping to reduce pressure build-up. The supportive medium to firm feel of this mattress type makes it a suitable mattress for side sleepers, back sleepers, and stomach sleepers alike.

For those looking for hypoallergenic materials, Miracoil is a hypoallergenic mattress. Made from anti-allergy fillings and fabric, the design may suit those looking for materials often chosen for a fresher sleep environment.

One of the easiest mattresses to clean and maintain, the low-maintenance mattress is one sided, meaning that it doesn’t require flipping. It can be rotated, however, and still requires regular care to fully optimise its lifespan.

How supportive are Miracoil mattresses?

Miracoil mattresses feature innovative zoned support. You can choose a soft, medium, firm or extra firm mattress to suit your specific requirements, though whichever Miracoil mattress you choose will be firmer in the middle than around the top and bottom. This zoned support ensures that the middle of your body is given the support it truly needs for a comfortable sleep, whilst your head and legs rest in a softer zone. This can help support a more neutral sleeping position for a wide range of sleepers.
