Mattress Buying Guide

A mattress is a long term investment. And it’s a product that you use every single day, for an average of 6-7 hours. That’s over 2500 hours per year! So shouldn’t you be choosing the right mattress so you stay comfortable and get a good night’s sleep? Here are a few tips for you to choose the mattress that best suits you.

  1. Size

The first consideration should be size. This will depend on how many people are going to be using it. Mattresses generally come in four standard sizes: single, double, queen and king. You should choose the one that fits your lifestyle and the height and width you are most comfortable with.

  1. Mattress types It helps to familiarize yourself with the most common mattress types and how they are constructed.
  • Spring mattresses use coils, which give the mattress a good bounce and provides you with adequate support.
  • Memory foam mattresses are designed to adapt and response to the contours of the body, which helps in relieving pressure.
  • Hybrid mattresses combine memory foam and spring to give you a mattress that combines the comforting factors to help you get undisturbed sleep.
  1. Firmness

Different people prefer different levels of firmness. The only way to know what a mattress’s ‘firm’ or ‘soft’ description really means is to lie on it. It’s important to test the mattress just the way you would test drive a car before buying it. Your sleeping style would also influence your firmness level.

  1. Material

A mattress is constructed by bringing together two kinds of layers – Comfort layer and Support layer. The comfort layer is the layer of cushioning placed above the support layer. This layer is responsible for the comfort level of the mattress. The Support layer is the core layer of the mattress and is the main base or support of the mattress.

There are a variety of support layers. Let’s briefly go through each of them.
  • Coir It keeps the body cool and provides good ventilation
  • Bonnell Springs It uniformly distributes weight and reduces motion transfer
  • PU foam It is well cushioned, foldable and usually a good budget mattress
  • Pocket springs It reduces motion transfer as the springs work independently. It also gives the mattress a luxurious feel
Now let’s look at the comfort layers.
    • Latex foam It is a hypoallergenic material, which means that it curtails the growth of germs. It is firmer than spring or foam mattresses.
    • Memory foam
It helps you sleep in the right posture and remembers your shape. It has hypoallergenic and anti-microbial properties.
    • Gel foam
It gives your body more support and also helps in temperature regulation.
  • High resilience foam Gives the mattress a good bounce and is highly durable.
  1. Cool or warm

If you’re at a warm and humid place, you should go for innerspring mattresses as they are more breathable. Foam mattresses do tend to trap the heat, so they work well in places that get too cold.

  1. Check the warranty

It is important that you check the warranty of the mattress. You don’t want to be stuck with a mattress that’s not right for you or is defective. Most mattresses come with a 10 year full replacement warranty.

Now that you’re aware of the basic types and the benefits of each type of mattress, you are well equipped to make an informed decision about buying the right mattress. We would highly recommend going to the store and getting a good feel of the mattress. That’s perhaps the most important part of the buying process. You may read countless reviews online, compare prices and do every bit of research, but nothing will compare to your visit to the store. Go to as many stores as possible and try and test the different types.
