Top Tips for Buying a Mattress

A mattress is an important investment. If you’re ready to purchase a new mattress but want to be sure you can rest easy with your choice, the following tips will help any future mattress owner select their perfect product from American Freight.

Purchasing a Mattress

Before arriving in store, it may be helpful to do some research as to which brands and styles may best fit your specific mattress needs, as well as research which receive high recommendations and why.

Research

If you have any health condition that could be affected by the quality of your sleep, consult a doctor before purchasing your next mattress.

Talk to a Doctor

Determine how much you’re willing to pay for a mattress beforehand, and stick to that budget when in the store. Understand that a mattress is an investment, but that there are options for great deals among our discount furniture and sales.

Set a Budget

Memory foam is a great mattress option, as this style molds to the body in response to heat and pressure, and evenly distributes body weight. This makes for a more comfortable sleep experience that will likely leave you fully rested.

Consider Memory Foam

Did you know? The edge of your mattress is the first area to lose its durability. Ask if the make and model of mattress you’re interested in is built to provide extra support for its edges.

Ask about Edge Support

Check to see if a mattress comes with a manufacturer’s warranty or a third party protection plan, as well as a money back guarantee return policy of seven days or more. Most people use their mattresses for at least ten years; if you don’t like a mattress after first use, you’ll want to return it and select a new one.

Warranty and Return Policy

Before making any final purchase, test out a mattress in the store. For an accurate idea of its suitability, lay down for at least 5-10 minutes.

Test it Out

Try out firm, plush, and pillow top styles in the same brand and near the same price point. Lay in each for at least ten minutes, and determine which style is most comfortable. Once you’ve determined your preference, ask to see more in that particular style.
