Japanese Mattress Brand NELL Debuts in US With 4,704-Coil Cooling Design

New York – September 16, 2026 -- Consumer365 has spotlighted NELL, a Japanese direct-to-consumer mattress brand, in its 2026 cooling mattress coverage following the company's first U.S. launch.

NELL packs four times the standard coil count into its mattresses

A king-size NELL mattress contains 4,704 individually wrapped pocket coils, compared to the 500 to 1,000 coils typically found in standard mattresses, according to the company. Each coil responds independently to pressure, with firmer support built into the middle and perimeter zones and more contouring at the shoulders and hips.

Thin layers of foam and cotton sit above the coils, allowing air to move around the springs and through the comfort layers to help release heat and moisture during the night.

NELL Mattress Named Top Pick for Back Pain by Expert Consumers

NEW YORK – September 15, 2026 -- Expert Consumers has named NELL its top pick in a new review of the best mattresses for back pain, citing the brand's high-density pocket-coil system and zoned construction.

A king-size NELL mattress packs in thousands of coils

A king-size NELL Mattress contains 4,704 individually wrapped pocket coils, compared with roughly 500 to 1,000 coils in a typical mattress, according to brand materials cited in the review. Each coil compresses independently, which Expert Consumers says allows for more localized pressure distribution across the shoulders, hips, waist, and legs, along with reduced motion transfer and stable support beneath thinner comfort layers.
