One of the key parameters you should pay attention to when buying a mattress is <span class=\"s1\"><b>hardness<\/b><\/span>. In the designations of mattresses, we often find symbols such as <span class=\"s1\"><b>H2, H3, H4<\/b><\/span>, which determine the level of firmness of the mattress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For many people, the interpretation of these letters and numbers is not obvious, which can lead to the wrong choice of mattress. In this article, we explain in detail what the H2, H3 and H4 designations mean, the differences between them, who they are for, and how to choose the perfect mattress for your weight, height and individual needs.<\/p>\n<h2><b>What does mattress firmness mean?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The firmness of the mattress informs, <span class=\"s1\"><b>how much the material resists body pressure<\/b><\/span> While lying down.
