A Mattress Pillows Memory Beds
When it
comes to buying mattress, it's okay to sleep around. In
fact, according to a nationwide poll commissioned by the Simmons
Co., Atlanta, Ga., many consumers like the buy a mattress
experience to buying a car, which normally occurs after several
"test drives. "Americans spend one-third of their
lives in bed. Yet, selecting the right mattress is more often
a nightmare than a dream. One in three respondents indicated
they have had confusing bed-buying experiences. Much like
selecting the right car, it is advisable to do your homework
beforehand.
Often
people search for a "firm" mattress, assuming it
will provide the most support. In reality, that's a mattress
myth. It is important to test many mattresses and only then
go and buy a mattress that evenly supports your body and
feels comfortable. "Support is the number one factor
to consider, then consumers can derive a level of comfort.
People don't need to sleep on concrete for proper support,"
indicates Don Hofmann, vice president of advertising. "The
right one will support your body at all pressure
points, and that will vary from person to person."
Knowing
when to go in to buy a mattress may be as important as
what to look for in it. It is recommended that consumers
should replace their mattress every eight to 10 years. Nevertheless,
many people may be sleeping on the bed their parents slept
on. These "tired" beds may contribute to the fact
that 75% of those polled said they have some difficulty sleeping
at night. What may be worn out, though, is the foundation. While bodies never touch the covered "box"
beneath it, this element is vital to the over-all
performance. So, when setting out to go for new one,
consumers should plan to replace both the mattress and the
foundation.
