Premium Mattresses

Most orthopedic doctors advise choosing a mattress based on the weight, age and health of the person it's being bought for. But those are only general guidelines. If your back doesn't hurt in the morning and you wake up rested and full of energy, congratulations — you chose well. At the same time, personal preference deserves its due. To buy a genuinely good mattress, work out which type you like best: some people favor sprung models, others prefer a latex mattress.

Many people are convinced that a mattress is a fine place to save money. Not quite. When buying the best mattress for yourself, it's worth spending a little more rather than economizing on your health and how you feel after sleep. Cheap models are produced with outdated technology that ignores the anatomy of the spine, which is why, after long use, most owners develop pain in the back and neck. A cheap mattress won't serve you long either — within a few years it will need replacing.

The best quality mattresses serve far longer, all while keeping your spine in its natural position.

Which mattress should you buy if budget is no object and your health is in order? Without a doubt, look at orthopedic models with a natural jacquard cover. They keep the spine naturally aligned during sleep and promote good blood circulation.

Choosing a mattress is a very personal matter, so before buying, get to know the existing categories to pick the best option:

• Mattresses with independent pocket spring units stand out because every spring is installed separately and packed into its own pocket. The load spreads evenly, so the mattress follows the contours of the human body with greater precision.
• Latex mattresses. The filling is latex, made from the sap of the rubber tree. The material doesn't cause allergies, is safe for your health and — importantly — has all the properties an orthopedic mattress needs.
• Memory foam mattresses. Here the manufacturer uses a special type of polyurethane filling. The material takes on the ideal shape, precisely following the curves of the human body and “remembering” them — which is what creates the orthopedic effect.

Which mattress is best? It's hard to give one definitive answer. Everyone has their own preferences and tastes: some like sleeping on a firmer surface, others love literally “sinking” into a soft bed. Either way, a good mattress must have a quality filling and a solid construction.
