Choosing a Bed

Things to consider before purchasing a new mattress and base.

The support system is the heart of mattress and a quality mattress will support your body at all points while still maintaining the natural curve of your spine. When you are selecting your bed ensure that the support system has the ability to provide the support your body needs and will perform to your changing requirements.

It is a popular misconception that a mattress has to be firm to be good for you. Although some people may prefer a firmer feel, a mattress that provides correct support with low pressure points is a far better option. Modern mattresses are built with luxurious comfort materials that create a plusher feel. It is simply finding the bed that is most comfortable for you.

Like most products, a mattress and base will gradually loose its ability to perform to the level it did when it was new. When buying a bed ensure that the materials used in the contruction has the ability to perform for a number of years.

Always buy the biggest bed you can. The more room you have in your bed the better quality of sleep you will have, especially if you’re sleeping with a partner. Two people sleeping together should select a queen or preferably a king size mattress and base to ensure both individuals have enough space for a good nights sleep.



 

Matching mattress and base sets are engineered to work together. Research has proven that a mattress lasts 68% longer when placed on a base using an identical spring unit. Placing a new mattress on an old base can impede the performance of the mattress and also reduce its life.

Buy quality products made with all new materials. Shopping for the best value, not the lowest price, is a healthy investment in your quality of life.
