A mattress matched to age
The same mattress won't suit a three-year-old and a teenager equally well. What matters is the child's age, weight and height, and — for bunk beds and trundle beds — the mattress height as well.
Choose an age group and compare the recommended models.

The most common questions that reach our helpline and inbox — together with the answers from our customer service team.
I'm ordering a 90 by 200 bed with a trundle — what mattress should I get for the trundle so it fits properly?
Our answer: for the trundle of a 90×200 cm bed you'll need a 90×190×8 cm mattress — the narrower dimension comes from how the trundle itself is built, so it's worth checking before ordering to make sure the mattress will actually fit.
My son has atopic dermatitis and a contact allergy — is there a mattress I can feel confident about?
Our answer: we understand, this matters a lot. Latex models such as Gombo, Berni or Bloom (which also has silver ions) have anti-allergenic and anti-fungal properties. Regularly airing the mattress and washing the cover according to the instructions also matters.
We're buying a bunk bed for the kids and I have no idea what mattress height to choose to keep it safe.
Our answer: that's a really good question, because this is genuinely about safety. Maximum 13 cm, both on the top and the bottom bunk — a taller mattress reduces the effective height of the safety rail. For a trundle bed, maximum 8 cm, so the extra bed can slide in under the main one.
Frequently asked questions
What mattress height should I use for a bunk bed?
For bunk beds, LANO Furniture recommends mattresses no taller than 13 cm.
The right mattress height matters above all for safety: a mattress that's too tall reduces the height of the safety rails and limits how effective they are.
What mattress height should I use for a trundle bed?
For trundle beds you should use a mattress no taller than 8 cm. This lets the extra bed slide properly under the main bed.
I'm ordering a 90 × 200 cm bed — what mattress do I need for the trundle?
For the trundle of a 90 × 200 cm bed, order a mattress measuring 90 × 190 × 8 cm.
Is the mattress included with the bed?
The mattress needs to be purchased separately. You can choose one of the models recommended for the particular type of bed.
Does the 13 cm limit also apply to the bottom bunk?
Yes. The recommended maximum height of 13 cm applies to both the top and bottom bunk.
This limit is primarily about children's safety: a mattress that's too tall reduces the height of the safety rails meant to protect the child from falling out of bed.
Mattresses for infants and young children
What mattress filling is right for a baby?
For infants, it's worth choosing mattresses made from materials that provide proper support, ventilation and hygiene. Foam mattresses with a latex layer or visco foam can be a good choice.
When choosing, the main things to consider are the mattress's intended use, the right firmness, and a good fit with the cot.
What mattress firmness is right for a baby?
Stable body support matters most for infants. The mattress shouldn't be too soft, since that can fail to provide proper support. It shouldn't be too firm either, as that reduces sleeping comfort.
It's worth choosing a medium-firm mattress, such as Dream or Clean. If in doubt, it's best to check with a paediatrician or midwife.
What mattress size should I choose for a child?
When choosing a mattress for an older child, it's worth leaving enough room for them to move freely while sleeping. As a rule of thumb, the mattress should be about 20 cm longer than the child's height.
Types of mattress
Which is better — foam or spring?
There's no single type of mattress that's best for every child. Foam and spring mattresses use different technologies and have different properties.
Foam mattresses can provide proper support and comfort, and their durability depends mainly on the foams used. A well-made foam mattress can have a load capacity comparable to some spring mattresses.
When choosing, the main things to consider are the child's age, weight and the size of the bed.
What's the difference between a Bonnell and a pocket-spring mattress?
In a Bonnell mattress, the springs are connected to each other. Pressure on one part of the mattress can therefore cause a larger area of the surface to give way.
In a pocket-spring mattress, each spring sits in its own pocket and works more independently. This spreads pressure more evenly and lets the mattress contour more closely to the body.
How often should a mattress be turned?
We recommend turning the mattress every 2-3 months. This helps wear the surface evenly, supports ventilation, and limits moisture build-up and unpleasant odours.
How to choose the right mattress?
What does the choice of mattress depend on?
Choosing a mattress depends above all on the individual user's needs. Age, weight, height, bed size, preferred firmness, and any health conditions or specialist recommendations should all be taken into account.
Which mattress should I choose for back pain?
For back complaints, it's worth looking for a mattress that gives the body stable support.
- pocket-spring mattresses provide point-based support, since the springs work independently,
- visco-foam mattresses contour to the shape of the body from its own warmth and help distribute pressure evenly.
If you have health problems, it's best to discuss your choice of mattress with a doctor or physiotherapist.
Which mattress should I choose for an allergy sufferer?
For people with allergies, it's worth choosing mattresses made from materials that limit allergen build-up and offer good ventilation.
A good option is the Gombo mattress with a latex layer, which has anti-allergenic and anti-fungal properties. Another option is Bloom, with a knit containing silver ions that supports hygiene and limits bacterial growth.
