With each new season, besides the ordinary cleaning and wardrobe switch, we usually flip our mattress over, don’t we?
But how do we recognize the summer and winter side? Plus, does it necessarily need to be turned over? Let’s find out together!
How to recognize the summer side from the winter side?
Generally speaking, traditional spring mattresses and pocket spring mattresses have 2 different sides. The advantage of a double sided mattress is the possibility of turning it over according to season temperatures to make sure we always get restful sleep.
The winter side is usually filled with warm and cozy materials such as Merinos wool.
On the contrary, the summer side is made with fresh and breathable fibers such as cotton, linen or silk.
This type of mattress usually has a visible label that allows you to recognize each side quickly.
2 sided mattress: why turn it upside down?
Turning the mattress over with each new season is very useful because:
- It prevents sweating and improves sleep quality by avoiding the onset of mold, mites, and bad smells in the environment.
- We can make sure internal materials settle evenly, preventing potential deformations or depressions in the areas where our body exerts greater pressure.
Summer and winter: which mattress to choose?
Don’t miss our Balance Merino Wool - Cotton mattress with pocketed springs which offers all the warmth of Merinos wool and the coolness of cotton, or our Risveglio mattress, made with Bonnel springs and a high-quality outer cover.
Double-sided foam mattresses for summer and winter
Mattresses made with advanced foams don’t usually come with a winter and summer side. However, they feature a comfortable and welcoming side thanks to the contouring effect of memory foam and a stiffer side.
Among our foam mattresses, let us highlight in particular our Golf Memory made with a specially shaped core according to the innovative Golf project, or Kuschelmed® De Luxe, with a patented core to guarantee anatomical support.
