Mattresses look similar in the stores and in the photos,
yet one is $300 and the other $1000. You're looking for
a comfortable new mattress, but you don't want to spend
too much or, even worse, too little. We can't see inside
the mattress, so we have to rely on information from well
trusted name brand manufacturers.
Important things to be considered when buying a new mattress:
Reputable Dealer - If a store is offering a price that sounds too good to be true, it probably is. And if it’s a store that’s only been open a few months, it might not be there in a few months if you have a problem with your mattress.
Size - Considering that most people sleep better when a partner isn’t crowding them, you should buy the largest size mattress that fits your bedroom and your budget. See our mattress size page for more information. Make sure you have room to stretch out. Whether the mattress is a twin, a full, a queen or a king, you'll know if it's spacious enough if you don't feel like you are being crowded.
Firm or Soft - which to pick? Try out the mattress at the
time you buy it. Lie down in the mattress and give several
mattresses a try. Never rely on the label. Somebody else's
impression of firmness could turn out not be your impression
of firmness.
Durability - make sure the materials are good quality and
assembled well, this will highly determine how long a new
mattress will provide qualify and support.
Warranty - look for a warranty with a product guarantee
of minimal ten years. The warranty should replace a defective
mattress and guard your against inadequate quality products.
Remember, getting the right mattress is about your health.
Do not fool around it.
