MATTRESS BUYING GUIDE

MATTRESS BUYING GUIDE

Signs that you may need a new mattress and/or box spring

  • You wake up with stiffness, numbness, aches and pains
  • You had a better night's sleep somewhere other than your own bed (such as a hotel)
  • Your mattress shows visible signs of overuse (it sags, has visible tearing, ripping, holes, staining, or damage)
  • You are tired after a full night's sleep
  • Your mattress is seven years old or older*

*In general, a mattress set that has been in use for 7 years is no longer providing you with the best comfort and support and should be replaced. Keep in mind that everyone's body changes over time, and the need for comfort and support only increases with age.

Remember warranties are voided if your mattress gets stained

Remember warranties are voided if your mattress gets stained - so spend a little extra money on a mattress protector to protect your investment.

We carry Malouf mattress protectors in several different styles to both suite your needs and your budget.

Determine your budget and needs

Choose the right type of store

Start with a store you trust. Furniture stores, department stores and sleep specialty shops all sell mattresses. Look for a retailer that provides you with the right information and attention. If you don't know where to shop, ask friends and family for their suggestions.

Utilize the retail sales associate

Work with knowledgeable sales people who can guide you through your mattress choices. Ask questions and look for detailed explanations when needed.

Test drive your mattress

Remove your shoes and lie down on several different models in various positions. Be sure to spend extra time in the position you usually sleep in. It can take up to 15 minutes to relax enough to feel the true support of a mattress, so don't rush it. The more time you take in a store, the less likely you'll have buyer's remorse later on.
