| Unique in its reliance on natural cotton, this is the firmest mattress from Royal-Pedic, offering excellent orthopedic support. The mattress is 8" thick, and overall mattress height to the floor on a 8" thick box spring and 7 1/4" metal frame is about 23".
The mattress features the double heat tempered, Royal-Flex innerspring system designed in Switzerland. The innerspring unit contains 85% more coils than is standard. The coils in the mattress are open ended, unknotted, six turn coils providing more flexibility, which means greater sensitivity to body contours, overall body support and relaxation.
Royal-Pedic's skilled craftsmen hand layer the staple cotton padding on each side of the innerspring unit to ensure a consistent, supportive sleeping surface. Over 50 pounds of pre-compressed staple cotton go into making a king size Royal-Pedic All Cotton Mattress! No polyurethane foam padding is in the mattress so you have extended durability and lasting support for your body.
The inner cotton padding is encased in Belgian 100% cotton ticking, which ventilates body heat. And the mattress is hand tufted the old fashioned way with European tufting straps to further pre-compress the cotton padding for orthopedic back support. No buttons are used to tuft the mattress because buttons have a tendency to turn on their side creating an uncomfortable sleeping surface.
Royal-Pedic Box Spring construction is the finest available. It provides 22% more coils than is standard for extra support and durability, and has 50% more coils located in the center-third of the box spring to support the body better (40% of our body weight is located in our torso area). The thickness of the coil wire is an extra heavy duty 8 3/4 gauge compared to the standard 9 1/2 gauge wire. Even the box spring contains a layer of staple cotton padding for added support for the underside of the mattress. Brass corner guards are installed on all corners, rather than the plastic ones that break off easily, and heavy duty cotton fabric is used on the underside of the box spring, instead of the thin synthetic sheeting that commonly droops and frays easily.Shipping Weight: 164.00 lbs.
