THE EXPERT'S RECOMMENDATIONS
You have now got the answers from the Mattress Expert. You now have the information you need to find the mattress that best suits your preferences and sleeping style.
We suggest you print out these results and bring them to your nearest Sleepy's store, and one of our Experts will be delighted to help you choose your perfect mattress.
Size
It is important that you choose a mattress size that suits both your,
and if need be, your partner's sleeping style. If your mattress purchase is of a
different size than your existing bed, you will need a new base.
Support
Choosing the right support technology from the seven available options is
vital to you deciding on the most appropriate mattress. For a comfortable fit, consider how your shoulders, hips, lower back, and the heaviest parts of your body rest on the
surface of each mattress you try. You should feel adequately supported while relieving
the tension on your pressure points. Don't assume that a firmer mattress means
more support, as this myth can cloud the therapeutic qualities of other types
of mattresses.
Your answers indicate that proper support is very important
to you. You should look for a sleep system that is specifically designed
for the superior support that a greater amount of coils and/or a higher
gauge of steel can offer.
Your answers indicate that proper support is moderately
important to you. You should look for a sleep system that offers a higher
than average high coil count and a sufficient thickness of coil wire to
offer you good support.
Your answers indicate that proper support is of minimal
importance to you. You should look for a sleep system that features a standard
amount of coils for an adequate level of support.
Comfort
Very firm mattresses, although historically thought
to be good for you, are not always the best option. Mattress manufacturers
are now realizing that pillowtop and plush models can provide comfort, while
not sacrificing the coil support necessary to give any type of sleeper a
quality night's rest and pain-free mornings.
Your answers indicate that comfort is very important
to you. You should look for a sleep system that features plush mattress padding.
Your answers indicate that comfort is moderately
important to you. You might consider choosing a sleep system that features
plush mattress padding.
Your answers indicate that comfort is of minimal
importance to you. You should look for a sleep system that offers
a quilted top to provide a minimum standard of comfort.
Durability
A good quality mattress should last between 7-10
years with regular use. Of course, the weight it carries as well as the
frequency of usage will all help to determine the lifetime of your bed
set. For example, children jumping on a bed will reduce the life of a
mattress.
Your answers indicate that comfort life and
durability is very important to you. You should look for a
premium brand name sleep system that is designed to deliver
consistent comfort over an extended period of time.
Your answers indicate that comfort life and
durability is moderately important to you. You should look
for a brand name sleep system that features a 5 to 10 year warranty.
Your answers indicate that comfort life and
durability is of minimal importance to you. You might consider
a standard sleep system featuring a five year warranty.
