If you’re having problems with an uncomfortable bed, it may be time to take the plunge and invest in a new bed or mattress! Luckily, bedstar is here to help with our series of bed buying guides designed to make sure you get the best sleep possible.
You spend over half of your life in bed, so it’s worth spending a bit of time to make sure that you choose the right product when buying beds online. Everyone’s needs are different, so it’s worth exploring our extensive range of beds and mattresses to find the right product to suit your needs.
The London Sleep Assessment and Advisory Service believe that an uncomfortable bed may cost people up to an hour’s good sleep a night, so what should you be looking for when you buy a new bed online.
Bed Buying Points
The best bed for your needs isn’t necessarily the most expensive one. However, it is worth spending as much as you can afford on a good mattress.
With a bit of care and love, a mattress will last for roughly 8-10 years. Regular use may see your bed deteriorate by as much as 75% from its original condition during this timeframe.
Your bed is an important investment, so consider this fact. For every £100 you spend on a bed, it represents just 2.7p a night over 10 years. Not bad value when you look at it that way.
Older beds can be less hygienic, as people sweat out as much as a full pint of fluid a night. Your mattress will also be full of house dust mites too.
A further point to consider is space, especially if you share your bed with a partner. While a double bed may be fine, you could buy a king size bed to give yourself more room to stretch during the night.
