What do you look for when buying a bed?

Question

How do you know which bed and especially matress is going to be comfortable?

Answer 1

Best if you  try it before you buy. In the store  they ask you what kind of mattress you want ? Soft, medium firm, firm, extra firm?  The same with bed frames,headboards, make you  dizzy with all the choices. And make it sound like if you are willing to pay more  you get something better. It is not always truth.I like memory foam mattress, but we were lucky because a friend have it in his guest room. We tried it and then we bought the same product.Here is few links  that might help.

Answer 2

if the bed is bouncy!!!!

ohhhh yeah baby!!!!

Answer 3

try to lay on it while its still in the store. or find reviews online.

Answer 4

We have been researching this a lot lately, as we need a new mattress & box spring...and they are so expensive!!!! You have to lay on them to tell for sure. Also, we are going to buy one with at least 6" of natural latex in the middle for support and durability.  

Our pillow top sagged and our Serta didn't last more than 5 yrs. for us. We won't get the Tempurpedic types, since we don't find them that comfortable and feel it may get too hot for us.

We may consider Sealy with latex.

Allergy Buyer's Club has some mattress reviews you might like looking there.

Answer 5

Spend a couple hours in a Matress Store! talk to people.It may sound silly but there are so many beds out there, and some can be expensive so you want to get your money's worth. Try 'em all out and see which ones make you want to take a nap the moment you lay on them. And don't do it all in one day take as much time as you need. I love plush beds ( not to hard, incredibliy comfy, but not too soft either, just right) Not sure where you are from but where I'm from (NY) Sleep City and City Mattress Have the best beds.
