Tips For Buying a New Bed
Important points to remember when you are buying your next bed.
Tips For Buying a New Bed
Check your bed base and mattress sizes are compatible.
If the mattress is too small for the bed base, it may shift around and cause discomfort or even be unsafe. On the other hand, if the mattress is too large, it may not fit properly and can also be uncomfortable. Therefore, it's important to carefully measure both the bed base and mattress to ensure compatibility before making a purchase.Bigger is better.
It is true that a larger bed can provide more sleeping space and may be more comfortable for some people, however, it's not always the best choice. Factors such as room size, budget, and personal preferences should also be taken into consideration when choosing a bed size.Replace your old base too.
Replacing an old bed base is recommended when purchasing a new mattress. This is because the bed base plays an important role in providing support and maintaining the shape of the mattress over time. An old or worn-out bed base may not provide adequate support, which can cause the mattress to sag or lose its shape. This can lead to discomfort and reduced sleep quality over time.Air the bed to disperse that "new" smell.
It's a good idea to air out your new mattress to help disperse any chemical odors that may be present. Many new mattresses are made with foam or other materials that can emit a slight odor when they are first unpackaged, which can affect your sleep quality.Check for the UK flammability label and for peace of mind, the NBF-approved tick.
Checking for both the UK flammability label and the NBF-approved tick can help ensure that the mattress you purchase is safe, high-quality, and meets UK regulations and standards. It's a legal requirement for all mattresses sold in the UK to have the UK flammability label attached.Give it time to get used to your new bed.
It's normal to experience an adjustment period of a few weeks when transitioning to a new mattress or bed, as your body adjusts to the new level of support and comfort. During this time, you may experience some discomfort or even slight pain as your body adapts to the new sleeping surface.Expect some degree of body-shaped impressions, this is normal.
It's normal to expect some degree of body-shaped impressions to form on your mattress over time, especially in areas where you sleep most often. This is because the materials in the mattress compress and conform to your body's shape and weight over time, which can result in slight impressions or indentations. These impressions are generally more noticeable on foam and pillow-top mattresses but can also occur on traditional innerspring mattresses.| GET SOCIAL |
