Guide To The Confusing World of Mattresses

We all want to get a comfortable night's sleep. Although it's hard to avoid the occasional sleepless night, the rest of the time we don't want our sleep ruined by an uncomfortable bed. If you're not sleeping well, it can be bad for both your physical and mental health. A poor mattress could cause anything from a bad back to dry skin and stress through lack of sleep. Finding the right mattress for you can be difficult though. There are more to choose from than you might think, and it's sometimes hard to tell one from the next. If you're confused and you don't know where to start, check out this guide to help you navigate the world of mattresses.

Pocket Sprung

Pocket sprung mattresses are one of the most popular types of mattress. The springs inside are sewn into individual pockets of fabric. If you share your bed, these robust mattresses are best for stopping you from rolling into each other in the night. Although they aren't the cheapest option, they are comfortable and luxurious, providing you with quality sleep. Each of the springs works individually to support your weight.

Memory Foam

Memory foam mattresses have got more popular in recent years, purporting to give you a super comfortable sleep. They mold to your body as you heat them up, making them great for people with back problems who need natural support. Memory foam is also hypoallergenic, with anti-microbial properties.

Continuous/Open Coil

If you're looking for a cheaper mattress option, you can choose an open spring mattress. Unlike pocket sprung mattresses, they don't have individual pockets for each spring. But it's the most popular method of springing a budget mattress around the world. They don't hold their shape as well as more expensive alternatives, but they'll save you a pretty penny.

Latex or Foam

Two more alternatives for people with allergies is a latex or foam mattress. These options are both durable and breathable, so they can be useful to people who are allergic to dust mites. A latex mattress is made from natural fibres and can be similar to memory foam, but without the heated layer. Memory foam can be firmer in winter, but latex keeps the same firmness all year round. You can also get hybrid foams that provide alternative materials that act in similar ways to latex and memory foam.

Mattress Toppers

Once you've chosen a mattress, you might also decide that you'll benefit from a mattress topper. A topper will help to protect your mattress from perspiration and bacteria, and can make it easier to get settled in bed. They add an extra layer to your bed to make it even more comfortable than it already is. It will also extend the life of your mattress, making it go further. You can buy them in a range of material, including hybrid foams and natural fabrics.

Choose your mattress and topper carefully to give you the best night's sleep and last you longer.
