What is the spring count on a mattress that says 187 springs per square meter?

The spring count of a mattress refers to the number of individual springs within a given area, usually measured per square meter. If a mattress has a spring count of 187 springs per square meter, this means that for every square meter of the mattress, there are 187 springs. This density can impact the mattress's support and comfort level, with higher counts often providing better contouring and pressure relief. However, other factors like spring design and material also play a significant role in overall mattress quality.


Can a kingsize mattress fit a twin box spring?

No, a twin box spring is not large enough. It would take 2 extra long twin box springs (80 inches in length, as opposed to a regular twin's length of 75 inches), as a kings size mattress is 80 inches long and 76 inches wide (which is twice the width of two twin box springs). Keep in mind that 76x80 is the measurements of an eastern king size mattress, as a western or "California" king mattress measures 72x84 inches.

Will a regular king size mattress and box spring fit on a bed from Ikea or would it be better to just use the mattress on the Ikea slats instead of box springs?

A regular king-size mattress and box spring may not fit properly on an Ikea bed frame, as Ikea's bed frames often have specific dimensions and support systems designed for their own mattresses. It's usually better to use the mattress directly on Ikea's slats, as they provide adequate support and are designed to work together. This setup can also enhance the mattress's performance and comfort. Always check the specific dimensions of both the bed frame and the mattress for compatibility.
