Mattress Firm helps you choose wisely.
The average person spends about one-third of their life in bed. That calculates to 3,000 hours or 120 days in a single year. Wondering if it’s time to buy a new bed? What makes it right for you? With so much to choose from, we have compiled a few helpful tips to ensure you get that great night’s sleep you deserve.
Is it Time to Replace Your Mattress?Consider these guidelines on when to replace your old bedding.
If you’re not sleeping well, your mattress could be the problem. To determine if it’s time to replace your current mattress set, consider factors such as its support, comfort and overall condition.
It’s time to buy a new mattress if:
- You wake up with aches and pains that dissipate throughout the day
- Your mattress shows visible signs of wear and tear
- You feel the coils when lying on your bed
- You hear noises/creaks on your mattress when moving around
- You roll toward the middle of the bed
If you experience any or all of the above, chances are a new bed could yield better sleep and sweeter dreams.
What’s your comfort level?
When it comes to a good night’s sleep, comfort is everything. So how do you determine your comfort level?
What size is best for you?
Here is some insight on how to choose the right size for you.
When it comes to mattresses, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. There are several factors you should keep in mind prior to your purchase. Consider the following:
- The mattress should be longer than the tallest person sleeping on it
- The bed width should allow enough space to fold your arms behind your head without going beyond the mattress edge or touching your partner’s elbows (for two adults, we recommend either a queen or a king)
