Is it time for a new mattress? Maybe you are tired of tossing and turning or rolling into that crater in the middle of your old innerspring mattress. Perhaps it’s time to think about two of the most comfortable mattresses around — the memory foam mattress and the natural latex mattress.
A memory foam mattress is temperature sensitive and uses this temperature sensitivity to mold to the contours of your body. This reduces pressure points and the need to toss and turn to get comfortable. Once you do change positions, the memory foam “remembers” its shape and gently molds to your new sleeping position.
A 100% natural latex mattress mattress is botanically made and has nothing synthetic or artificial in it. It is antimicrobial, dust mite free, and resists mold and mildew. This makes it ideal for those with allergies or asthma or those who just want to sleep free of allergens and chemicals.
Quality memory foam mattresses and natural latex mattresses should come with at least a 10 year warranty. A good mattress equals great sleep, but how can you tell which mattress is right for you? There’s only one way to know for sure — Make sure you only buy from a retailer that lets you try your new mattress in your own home for at least 90 days. If you don’t like it, you need to be able to return it and get your money back. (Do not accept a store credit or “comfort” guarantee or you could be out a lot of money and still not have a mattress you like.)
