| Today people have very busy schedules. Between careers, children and activities, life seems to move at lightning pace. With such busy lives it is important to be sure and get a good nights rest. Studies prove that sleep is an important part of healthy living. In order to get a good night rest you need to have a comfortable mattress. With many options available to choose from today, you can find the mattress to help you rest easy. The most common type of mattress is the mattress and box spring set. There are many different varieties available to ensure your comfort. If you have been considering purchasing a new mattress and box spring there are a few things to try before buying. If you have a good box spring but your mattress is starting to sag a bit, try using a large piece of plywood between the mattress and box spring. For a mattress that is just beginning to sag in the middle, this trick will make your set feel strong and new again. Providing support once again using the plywood between the mattresses set will extend the life of your mattress for another one or two years. Another tip is to try flipping the mattress over, thus bringing the sag to the top. Unfortunately, this is only a short term solution. If you have decided there is no saving your mattress but the box spring is still in decent shape, try shopping for a mismatched mattress piece. These are generally less expensive than a new set but the sizes, and types are often limited. If you have decided to replace the entire set a good place to start at is furniture clearance outlets. These stores carry new or returned mattress sets that generally were ordered and not what the customer wanted for one reason or another. The sets are lower in price to make room for the newest mattress sets. If you are aware what type of firmness or softness you want then you can shop according to that. There are many varieties from firm to pillow top to foam to air filled. It is important to try them and find the one mattress that will help you sleep comfortably. Many people are hesitant to buy mismatched sets, however as long as you are buying the same size, no one will ever know except you. Once you have put the mattress cover, sheets, and bedding on your mattress you will not be able to notice that the set does not match. Regardless of your choice it is important to remember that sleep is a necessary part of a healthy lifestyle and the more comfortable your mattress, the more rested you will feel. |
