How to tell…..if you need a new mattress

Did you know that over the course of your life you will spend approximately a third of your time in bed? Did you know that once we reach middle age, our bodies don’t cope so well with pressure? So once you’re over 40, you may need to replace your mattress more frequently than in your younger days.

Given these extraordinary facts, it makes perfect sense to make sure that your bed is as comfortable as it possibly can be. But is your mattress providing you with everything you need to make sure you have a good night’s sleep? Is it providing you with comfort and support so you wake up feeling fully rested?

Find out if you need a new mattress

Spending so much of our time in bed, it’s all too easy to easy to miss the fact that your mattress may have become a problem. Most mattresses should last between seven and ten years but there are many variables that can shorten the natural lifespan of your mattress.

Fortunately, there nine easy ways to check if the time has come for you to replace your mattress. Ask yourself:

  1. Is your mattress more than seven years old?
  2. Have you had a better night sleep in a different bed from yours?
  3. Do you start the morning with stiffness or aches and pains?
  4. Are you sleeping as well as you did a year ago?
  5. Are you moving around, tossing and turning trying to find a better sleeping position?
  6. Does the mattress look used and worn or feel lumpy?
  7. Does your mattress make odd noises in the night?
  8. Is your mattress sagging, so you and your partner find yourselves rolling towards each other unintentionally in the night?
  9. Would you be embarrassed if your neighbours saw your mattress without its covers on?

If your answer to any one of those nine questions is yes, then you should really think about replacing your mattress.
