Buying a New Bed

We spend a third of our lives in bed, so it’s no wonder that a good quality mattress is crucial for a great night’s sleep. Whether you need something soft, long, or spacious, there’s a bed out there that will make all the difference to your sleep and, ultimately, the way you feel every day.

Do you wake up with aches and pains, especially in your back and neck? Do you toss and turn all through the night, unable to find a comfortable position? Those minor aches and pains can be caused by a lot of things, from sleeping in the wrong position to not getting enough support while you sleep. But they’re also most often the result of having a mattress that isn’t right for your body type.

That’s why it’s important to regularly assess your mattress and box spring or frame to make sure they are still supporting you in the best possible way, and that they’re not showing signs of wear and tear. If you’ve been sleeping on your mattress for 10 years or more, it may be time to consider upgrading it. “Your body changes a lot over that period, and so does your mattress,” says Dr. Bang.

Choosing a mattress that fits your body type and sleeping habits is important, but so is the design of the bed. You’ll want to choose a bed that blends in with the rest of your bedroom, and you’ll also need to take into account your sleep style and personal preferences, such as if you like to sit up in bed or not.

When it comes to the colour of your bed, neutral shades like white and grey can help create a peaceful and serene atmosphere that’s perfect for a bedroom that’s used for relaxing. If you prefer a bolder look, deep colours like navy blue and emerald green can add a sense of luxury and sophistication to your space.

You’ll also need to consider the size of your bed, especially if you have a partner. A king-size bed can give both you and your partner plenty of room to stretch out and relax without disturbing each other throughout the night.

Once you’ve considered all of these factors, it’s time to start shopping for a new bed. We’ve got a wide selection of beds to choose from, so you can be sure you’ll find one that perfectly suits your needs. So, go ahead and treat yourself to a new mattress that will transform the way you sleep — and by extension, the way you feel every day. You’ll thank yourself later.
