When to Replace Your Mattress

So, when is it time to replace your mattress?

If you are having trouble sleeping, you may want to check your mattress to see if it is the problem.

It’s time to replace your old mattress when....

You wake up with aches and pains

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

Now for the five main factors to consider when selecting your perfect mattress.

1) Firm, Soft... ahhhh... Just right! Select your comfort level.

You need to look for a mattress set with the right comfort and support to ensure you get the most comfortable sleep ever. Let our knowledgeable and professionally trained sleep-specialists assist you in choosing the right level of comfort you need to get your best nights rest!

2) What Brand?

Are you looking for a mattress that reduces motion, or offers pressure relief? At our Missouri furniture stores, we carry Simmons Beautyrest and Tempur-Pedic mattress brands and all at the best prices. You can compare them side by side before you decide, from traditional innerspring to the latest in sleep technology. Based on your comfort preference you can determine which brand is right for you.

3) Size really does matter!

When it comes to mattresses, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. Let's keep in mind these important factors when determining the right size mattress for you!

Think about the following:

You want the mattress to be longer than the tallest person sleeping on it

When you fold your arms behind your head, you should have enough room without going beyond the mattress edge or touching your partner’s elbows (for two adults, we recommend either a queen or a king)

4) Quality... does it really matter?

Ultimately, it’s wise to purchase the best and biggest mattress that fits your budget. Investing in a good night’s sleep is investing in your own health. At our Missouri mattress store, we make it easy to get a great night’s rest. That’s why we carry the nation’s top brands and the largest selection of Springfield, Hollister, Branson and Columbia mattresses in the area.

5) So, how much is this all going to cost?

As a general rule, you get what you pay for. A new bed is an investment - the higher the quality the better the comfort, support and durability. Remember, you spend 1/3 of your life on your mattress; so, going for higher quality will pay off - but price isn’t everything. Remember to choose a model that suits your needs and your budget the best.
