A sprung edge base provides a second layer of springing under the mattress. This not only makes the mattress more comfortable it also makes the mattress last longer.
A firm edge base is almost identical to a sprung base, apart from the firm border edge which runs around the sprung base. This creates a more supportive edge to the mattress.
