How often should you replace your mattress?

As a general rule, consider replacing your mattress every six to eight years. However, this timeframe is only a guideline and can change depending on the quality of your mattress, how you use and maintain it, and your individual preferences. There are several different ways to tell when to replace a mattress. For example, sagging or noticeable body impressions are reasonable indications that it's time for a replacement. Even without physical signs, if you find your allergies increasing or the quality of your sleep deteriorating, it could mean your mattress is at the end of its life, and it's time for a new one.

What mattress should you choose based on sleeping position?

Your sleeping position determines what mattress provides the most comfort and support:For side sleepers, a softer mattress that forms to your body's curves and relieves pressure on your hips and shoulders is best. Memory foam and hybrid mattresses are two common types that fit the bill.For back sleepers, consider a medium-firm option to support your spine's natural curve. For stomach sleepers, look for a firmer mattress that stops your body from sinking too much to avoid straining the spine.

What size mattress should you choose?

When selecting your mattress size, consider the following:How much sleeping space you likeThe size of your roomWhether you're sleeping alone or with a partner:A twin or twin XL is your best bet for a single person with limited space. Full-size mattresses — sometimes also called doubles — provide more space for single sleepers, but they can also comfortably fit two people, especially if they don't mind being snug. The most popular choice among couples is a queen mattress, as this size provides ample space without taking up too much room. Finally, king and California king sizes are excellent for couples needing maximum personal space or for families with kids or pets.

Mattresses

It’s no secret that a good night’s rest is critical to your health and well-being. The proper mattress can put you on the path to better sleep. Tailor your choice based on your sleep habits. Consider factors like size, material type, firmness, and thickness.

The decision can feel overwhelming, but we’ve made it a little easier with this guide to finding the perfect mattress.

The first step in choosing a mattress is to determine what size you need. The size of your mattress is dependent on personal preference and room size. The various mattress options are available in the following sizes:

Twin: 39” W x 75” L

Twin mattresses are ideal for tight quarters. They are long enough to sleep one adult and are a good option for kids’ rooms .

Mattress Material

Modern mattress technology has come a long way in the last few decades. Many of the options you’ll find are constructed with multiple layers of foam, springs, and other padding to create an ideal blend for restorative sleep. Let’s explore the most common choices.

Innerspring

Considered the most “traditional” style of mattress, an innerspring variety consists of metal coils layered with cushion. This style of mattress offers bounce and a variety of firmness levels, which allows the sleeper increased mobility and less sinkage.

Memory Foam

Memory Foam's ability to mold to your body and maintain cushion makes it a popular choice. Choose from a variety of heights and firmness levels to enjoy that “sinking-in” feel. A memory foam mattress is ideal for couples, as it absorbs motion and minimizes sleep disruption.

Latex

Made from all-natural materials, latex mattresses are lauded for their durability and tend to last slightly longer than other types. Latex provides light body-contouring support with a bouncier feel than memory foam.

Hybrid

As the name implies, hybrid mattresses combine components like foams, gels, and spring cores to create a bouncy, responsive sleep experience while conforming to your body shape. A hybrid mattress also regulates temperature and sleeps cooler than foam-only styles.

Mattress Firmness

Firmness pertains to how much “give” a mattress has. When assessing which level of firmness you prefer, consider your typical sleep position and any ergonomic support you need.

Perceived firmness varies by sleeper and does not equate to support. Explore the options below:

Soft

Soft mattresses have cushiony top layers with padding or foam that accentuate the feeling of sinkage. These mattresses offer little to no pushback and are preferred by side sleepers who want to relieve pressure in hips, shoulders, and lower back.

Medium Firm

Medium-firm mattresses have top layers of foam or cushion. They’re designed with sturdier elements like dense foam or coils to give the sensation of feeling lifted without sacrificing comfort. Medium-firm mattresses are preferred by combination sleepers who move around and want the added mobility of a firmer mattress.

Firm

Firm mattresses have a thin top layer of cushion atop a dense material. These mattresses create the sensation of resting on top of the bed rather than sinking into its layers. Firm mattresses are preferred by stomach sleepers who require a constant lift to keep their back from bowing and causing pain.

Mattress Thickness

Choosing the proper thickness for a mattress helps increase its longevity and prolongs degradation. Like firmness, your individual preference is influenced by your sleep habits and environment.

Keep in mind other sleep accessories that impact the final height of the mattress, such as a bed frame or box spring. Let’s consider the various choices:

Low profile: 2 – 5 inches

Low profile beds are usually found in stowaway beds and cots that fold up and are easily stored. Add a top layer to enhance comfort.

Slim Profile: 5 – 8 inches

Slim profile beds are typically used for children’s beds and individuals who prefer sleeping lower to the ground. Dense foam is used to maximize comfort without adding extra height.

Standard Profile: 8 – 12 inches

Standard profile beds allow for a stacked mix of foundation layers and cushion layers.

Deep or Thick Profile: 12 – 20 inches

Deep profile beds are ideal for weight distribution, especially for couples sharing a bed or side sleepers.

Extra Thick Profile: 20+ inches

Extra thick profiles have room for added comfort layers. These mattresses are durable.
