The ‘Ons’ and ‘Offs’ of Changing Your Mattress
You have a great mattress that has served you years and years or even decades, but there comes a point in time where you feel like it’s time you gave it a break… for good! This article will give you some tips on how to find out if the time has come to replacing your mattress.
What factors do you consider when buying a new mattress?
What would make you decide to change your mattress? Moving house, home renovation, a bedroom redo complete with upgrades, perhaps tardiness or infestation (mold, bugs-the ones that bite!), or seldom random but much welcome visit from the
Judy Bloom team of
“How Clean Is Your House?” Rather, if your
sleep quality does not stir you to warrant a change in your
sleep lifestyle, let alone the constant need to keep turning over your mattress like turning over a new leaf, only with a high turnaround time but no comparable turnover, more trouble is certainly looming large. If it’s not too late for one, a risk assessment (or collateral damage assessment – depending on the timing) could certainly reveal some scathing if not scarring truths….at least as far as your health (and by extension, your wealth) is concerned. So before the acute turns to chronic, or a matter of quick relief turns to somewhat of a life sentence with lifetime management, perhaps you need to read the tea leaves in your cup before a storm brews therein. In simple words, rather than waiting for your current mattress to become harmful to your health, you might want to consider replacing it with a high-quality mattress right away.
