Do you need a new mattress, but don't know which one to buy because of the wide selection?
For all of you who are facing this dilemma, we have put together a brief guide to help you select the right mattress.
When is the time to buy a new mattress?
Like anything we use regularly, a mattress wears out after a few years of use. A bad mattress has a negative effect on the quality of our sleep, which directly affects our health and mood. Pay attention to these signs that your mattress might not be the best and it’s time for a new one.
Mattresses also need to be changed for hygienic reasons:
How important is the mattress height when selecting?
When selecting the height of your new mattress, take into account the fact that a higher mattress offers more comfort, as it provides more support for the lumbar area.
High mattress
30 cm and more
A high mattress (30 cm and more) is the most comfortable and offers sufficient support even for overweight people.
Medium-high mattress
20 - 30 cm
A mattress of medium height (20-30 cm) provides good support and comfort for the spine.
Low mattress
Up to 20 cm
A low mattress (up to 20 cm) is suitable for children and adolescents, as well as vital adults without back problems.
Which mattress size to choose?
When selecting the size of the mattress, stick to the guideline that it must be at least 10 cm longer than your body height. For a comfortable sleep, select a mattress that is wide enough or as wide as possible.
What mattress hardness to select?
The mattress hardness that will allow you to sleep well varies from individual to individual and depends on your body weight, sleeping pattern, and personal preferences.
