A mattress topper may be just the ticket for you to get a good night’s sleep without doing too much damage to your budget. You can select toppers that give cushioning and support. Down, cotton and wool do more for the cushioning aspect of a bed while latex and memory foam can give cushioning and support. Your needs and budget will help guide your purchase.

Mattress Stores
Mattress stores are a great place to shop for mattresses, obviously. But as with mattresses, stores have varying degrees of quality. Finding a quality mattress is part of your challenge, finding it in a quality mattress store is another element of shopping.
Mattress Sizes
Mattress sizes seem to get more numerous as time goes by. We no longer have the basic twin, full (or standard), queen and king mattresses to choose from. Knowing what’s available and what you have space for will help you narrow your decision. But there are styles that can impact the size you buy because they can be moved out of the way when not in use.
Mattress Sets
Buying a mattress set is like buying insurance for a good night’s sleep. Of course, the quality of the sleep reflects the quality of the mattress set. A mattress and box springs are designed to work together to create comfort. Since many mattresses and box springs are designed to work together it’s smart to buy them together. And manufacturer warranties are more likely to be honored if you buy the set over just the mattress or box springs alone.
Mattress Sales
Knowing what kind of mattress you want lets you take advantage of mattress sales more than if you just decide to buy what’s there. Learn about the different brands, materials, construction techniques, and warranties before you go to a mattress sale. Unless you just need a mattress for a limited time and use, don’t just buy a mattress because the price is low.
Mattress Sale
A mattress sale is sometimes the manufacturer’s way of dumping lots of mattresses. It can also be a way a store changes inventory to make room for the newest models of mattresses. Use the same care in shopping for a new mattress, even one on sale, that you would for any other big ticket item. Just because the price is less, the benefits and advantages shouldn’t be less too.
Mattress Reviews
Mattress reviews are an important part of your mattress purchase research. They give you information you can’t find from manufacturers or stores, and share other’s reactions and experiences to their mattress purchases. You can use mattress reviews to help you narrow your selection between mattress styles, like inner spring, latex, futon, or air mattresses, and then among the different manufacturers of the mattress style you settle on. Read them on the internet and ask friends and family about their mattress thoughts as you shop for your next mattress.
Mattress Review
The idea behind a mattress review is to help you determine which mattress style or brand you want. You want to learn whether the mattress is quality or cheap (and I don’t mean inexpensive), offers support or leaves you unsupported, and what it’s made of. You can choose from innerspring, memory foam, latex, foam, and viscoelastic foam mattresses, for just a start. Then there is the cotton, wool and water bed mattress to choose from. Look at lots of mattress reviews and test lots of beds before making your decision.
Mattress Pads Thread Count
In the bedding industry the lingo for thread count is “tc”, so to talk about mattress pads tc is to talk about the quality and benefits of different kinds of mattress pads. As with sheets, higher thread count generally means a higher quality product. There of course is more to quality than thread count, but it’s a good start.
Mattress Pads
Mattress pads are one solution to an uncomfortable bed. Select from the numerous styles of mattress pads and sleep well tonight. Some of the mattress pads on the market today are thin versions of the diverse selection of mattresses on the market, but for much less money. Using a mattress pad not only fixes the discomfort of your present mattress but lets you “test drive” the mattress material you think you’d like next.
