How these guides are written

Each guide starts from a question people really ask before buying: floor space, weight to fold, number of springs. The answer comes with its figures, before the opinion.

Dimensions, weight limits and weights come from manufacturers' spec sheets. When a figure is only approximate, we say so.

  • One precise question per guide
  • Verifiable figures rather than superlatives
  • Affiliate links always disclosed
  • A link to the relevant comparison page
