Welcome to our comprehensive guide on how to buy a mattress for adults. In this guide, we will provide you with valuable information on what to look for and the important questions to ask when purchasing a mattress. Whether you are a stomach, back, or side sleeper, we will also discuss which mattresses are best suited for your specific sleeping style. Read on to make an informed decision and ensure a restful night's sleep.

First and Foremost Be sure that the Mattress Store you are buying from is an Authorized dealer for the mattress you are buying. There are several stores in South Florida that are selling used mattresses. At Mattress Xperts we are Authorized dealers for Tempurpedic and all mattresses we carry. The Easiest way to see if your store is a authorized dealer is to check their website. IF the product like Tempurpedic is not listed on their website, you may be buying a used mattress. 

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is coil gauge and why is it important?

Coil gauge refers to the thickness of the coils in a mattress. The lower the gauge number, the thicker and firmer the coils. A higher gauge number indicates thinner and softer coils. The coil gauge plays a crucial role in determining the overall support and durability of the mattress. For individuals seeking a firmer mattress, a lower coil gauge is recommended.

2. What is the density of foams and why does it matter?

The density of foams used in mattresses refers to the weight of the foam per cubic foot. Higher foam density indicates better durability and support. It is important to choose a mattress with foam of adequate density to ensure proper spinal alignment and pressure relief. Lower density foams may deteriorate faster and lead to sagging over time.

3. What are the different types of foams commonly used in mattresses?

There are several types of foams used in mattresses, each offering unique benefits:

  • Memory Foam: Known for its contouring properties, memory foam molds to the body's shape, providing excellent pressure relief and motion isolation.
  • Latex Foam: Natural latex foam offers a responsive and breathable sleep surface. It provides a balance of comfort and support, making it suitable for various sleeping positions.
  • Polyurethane Foam: This foam is commonly used as a base layer in mattresses. It provides support and stability to the upper comfort layers.

4. Which mattresses are suitable for different sleeping types?

Choosing the right mattress for your sleeping position is crucial for optimal comfort and support:

  • Stomach Sleepers: Stomach sleepers generally benefit from a firmer mattress that keeps the spine aligned and prevents sinkage.
  • Back Sleepers: Back sleepers typically require a medium-firm mattress that supports the natural curvature of the spine.
  • Side Sleepers: Side sleepers often prefer a softer mattress that cushions pressure points and promotes proper spinal alignment.

It is important to consider your individual preferences and any specific health conditions when selecting a mattress.
