Buying a mattress can become really confusing at times due to the sheer number of options available today. It is a product that you use daily but cannot purchase frequently. So you will have to make the right choice in the first go. Options only increase the odds of an impulse buy and could land you in potential sales traps. So here are a few common mattress buying mistakes to be aware of and avoid for your next purchase to get the best deal available.
Do your research
There are four types of mattresses namely memory foam, latex, coil springs with padding, and hybrid. Each bedding style offers a unique comfort level for different sleeping positions. Some are also designed to provide supportive orthopedic comfort. You must compare available options to check what type of bedding is suitable for your sleeping needs.
Don’t go for the cheapest one
While price is a major deciding factor, consider spending a little more to get a decent product. For example, single foam mattresses with minimal design elements are the most affordable ones to buy. But these mattresses lack the quality and necessary lumbar support for a good night’s sleep.
Try them out
Go for brands that offer a free trial period. This way, you get to take the mattress home and try it out for a couple of nights before buying. Don’t buy furnishings that you have not personally checked and tested for long term use.
Size matters
Mattresses come in standard, double, queen, and king size options available with most brands in the market. And the measurements for these variants are available online so it pays to double check if the mattress will fit your existing bed frame. This won’t matter if you plan to overhaul the bedroom furniture. But always check to see what size works best for the family bedroom.
Always get a second opinion
Discuss firmness levels, sleeping positions, and most importantly, type of materials with your partner. Many brands nowadays also feature dual adjustable mattresses that come with individual firmness and comfort levels on each side. This is an innovative custom solution that you should discuss with your partner so both of you get a good night’s sleep.
Read customer reviews
Get a better idea of the product by reading customer reviews on the company website. This way, you can avoid falling into sales traps that save you money but end up delivering an inferior product.
