Construction
The classic, done well.
Sumo (相撲) evokes the wrestler who holds the weight without giving way. No complicated layers: focus on what makes a mattress last.
-
1
Bonnel spring core
Traditional structure, springs linked to one another. Firmer and more durable than pocket springs.
-
2
Uniform support
The firmness is the same across the whole surface, with no zones. That is what gives the stable platform feel.
-
3
High breathability
Air circulates between the springs. It sleeps far cooler than any foam mattress.
-
4
No memory foam
There is no layer that moulds to the body. Anyone looking for that feel should see the Kaizen or the Takumi.
Sumo, Sumo Plus or Mizu?
Three firm mattresses with springs. The difference is in the type of spring and in what sits on top.

What the Advisor says
“For those who prefer the traditional, done well.”
When someone tells me they prefer the old mattresses and that soft ones are not for them, I recommend the Sumo. Classic Bonnel spring structure, firm, with no promises of luxury.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference from pocket springs?
Bonnel springs are linked to one another: firmer, more durable, less adaptable. Pocket springs are independent: more comfort and less motion transfer.
What does orthopaedic mean?
High firmness with uniform support of the spine. It is not a medical claim. For clinical conditions, speak to your doctor.
Is it noisy like old springs?
Barely. Modern Bonnel springs have a treatment that reduces the sound, but they are noisier than pocket springs. Anyone sensitive to noise should see the Sora or the Takumi.
Sumo or Sumo Plus?
The firmness is the same. The Plus has a memory foam layer on top that softens the contact, and 4 cm more height. If you want pure firmness, Sumo.
Is it suitable for couples?
It is, but linked springs transmit more movement. If one of you is a light sleeper, the Mizu or the Takumi handle that better.
