How long is the warranty on Hästens springs?
Hästens gives a 25-year warranty on the springs and the frames. What applies to your bed is stated in your own warranty document.
Springs and frame
Short answer
Beneath the natural fibres lie two spring systems and a frame of Swedish pine. Pocket springs, each in its own fabric pocket, move independently and come in soft, medium and firm. Below them are Bonnell springs: conical, non-galvanised, acting as a shock absorber. The springs are made in Sweden; Hästens gives a 25-year warranty on springs and frame.
Pocket springs: each on its own
The middle mattress contains a patented pocket spring system, calibrated soft, medium or firm. Each spring sits in its own fabric pocket and moves only when weight comes onto it; the springs beside it stay put.
The practical result: you barely notice your partner turning over. The fabric pockets also let air through the whole bed.
Bonnell springs: the shock absorber
The base rests on Bonnell springs, Hästens' oldest spring system. They are conical and made of non-galvanised steel, and absorb the larger forces as you move — like a shock absorber beneath everything else.
Made in Sweden, heat-treated
According to Hästens, the springs are made exclusively in Sweden and heat-treated beforehand, so that they always return to their original shape after compression. What sets Hästens apart is not only the number of springs but the variety: how tall, how tightly coiled and how strong each spring is, and how they work together.
25 yearsThe warranty Hästens gives on the springs and the frames of its beds (Hästens catalogue, pp. 97 and 99).
The frame: slow-grown pine
The frame is Swedish pine from northern Sweden, such as Värmland, where the trees grow slowly and therefore strong. The joints are lined with flax so the frame doesn't creak.
According to Hästens, all wooden frames and headboards are FSC-certified: the wood is traceable and comes from forests managed with biodiversity in mind.

Frequently asked questions
Is the wood in a Hästens FSC-certified?
According to Hästens, all wooden frames and headboards are FSC-certified, made of pine from northern Sweden.
Can you hear the springs of a Hästens?
That is not the idea: flax under and around the springs stops steel touching steel and dampens sound. It is one of the first things people notice.
