Materials Matter: Meet IntelliCoil®

— by Stearns & Foster on Nov 3, 2026

We know how much care you put into making your bedroom your sleep sanctuary, and at Stearns & Foster®, we put the same attention to detail into our mattress designs. Our materials aren't just selected — they're engineered to work in harmony, creating a sleep environment that feels indulgent and restorative. Quality begins below the surface, where our exclusive IntelliCoil® Innersprings offer personalized support and pressure relief based on your size and shape.

The world’s finest bed wouldn’t be complete without the world’s finest innerspring. Created by our in-house experts, this unique nested coil design — the only continuous coil-in-coil available on the market — is patented to provide ultimate support in each of our mattress models. IntelliCoil® is the key to our unmatched, long-lasting comfort. The larger exterior coil is the first interaction a sleeper has with the system and is designed to provide a softer feel, responding to the lightest initial touch. Within the larger coil, we included a smaller, nested coil. This cone-shaped inner coil provides a larger range of response, distributing the necessary support to all sleepers. The more pressure or weight the coil receives, the deeper support it offers.

This innovation in craftsmanship allows the individual coils to work together as one, providing customized support to reduce tossing and turning on your mattress. But we didn’t stop there — we took this idea and evolved it into IntelliCoil® HD. This upgrade of our one-of-a-kind innerspring design is available in the Reserve mattress and features 20% more coils* in a densely packed arrangement to provide even more precise support for every type of sleeper.

At Stearns & Foster®, the materials matter. Discover the difference our IntelliCoil® technology can make in your sleep.
