Mattresses are more important than people initially think. They can affect your posture, your health, your quality of sleep and much more. Nobody really thinks about how their mattresses affects them until they wake up after several sleepless nights, waking up achy and sore, poor and achy posture and back problems. There are many different types of mattresses and sizes. But finding the perfect mattress is more than just size and type, it's ultimately about comfort.
First of all, let's define what a mattress is. A mattress is a pad or mat that can be used to sleep or lie on. It is usually filled with something to cushion the person. Mattresses are usually filled with different types of foam, or an inner spring core. They can also be filled with air, water and even natural materials like feathers and straw. Mattresses come in various sizes. They can come in cribs sizes, twin, twin extra long, full, full extra long, queen, California queen, king and California king sizes. If you're a person who likes to spread out, make sure you have room sufficient to keep yourself and your partner in bed! Of course, with the increase in size, there is an increase in price. Depending on the type of mattress would affect the price too. So, finding the perfect mattress for you also depends on what you're wiling to put out for it.
Finding the perfect mattress also means identifying why you want a new mattress. Are you losing sleep? Are you waking up achy and sore from sleeping uncomfortably because of a bad mattress? 26% of women would invest in a good quality mattress for better sleep and as an in home wellness item. For those who prefer sleeping on their sides, they would prefer a mattress that has more cushioning and is softer. People who prefer to sleep on their backs would want a mattress that is harder and firmer. If you have back problems, you can find mattresses that are orthodontic approved.
A part of finding the perfect mattress would be knowing what your comfort level is. There is firm, cushion firm, plush, pillow top and ultra plush. A lot of choosing your comfort level depends on your size and height. Most larger people would find a mattress more softer than a smaller person. Finally, in your quest for the perfect mattress, make sure you know how much you want to spend. Remember, you'll spend about a third of your life in this bed.
