TOP TIPS FOR BUYING A NEW MATTRESS

Buying a mattress is a pricy investment, so you certainly want to choose the proper one. Following these tips should make the process a bit less stressful.

  • Research. In order to narrow down your choice of brands, mattress types and firmness levels, research online before committing to a mattress. Be sure to pay extra attention to customer reviews.
  • Travel Advisor. When you visit a hotel or a relative, notice the quality of your sleep on that mattress. If you enjoyed a restful sleep, then inquire about the brand and firmness of the mattress.
  • Test Firmness. You can test out increased firmness by placing your existing mattress on the floor or placing a plywood board under your mattress.
  • Take a Cat Nap. If you can make it to the store, try to lie on the mattress for at least 10 to 15 minutes. You should check out all levels of firmness to determine, which one suits you. Remember firm mattresses aren’t always the best for a bad back.
  • Consult Your Doctor. Should you have any heath concerns that might affect your mattress purchase, talk to your doctor to see what type of mattress they recommend. You may want to look into the possibility of adjustable beds.
  • Check the Warranty. Ensure that your mattress has at least a 10-year warranty, which will vary per manufacturer.
