If you are purchasing a mattress only, Sealy's Posturepedic mattresses give genuine support throughout their ranges.
Benefits of visiting a store when buying a bed
There are many advantages of visiting a store in person when purchasing a bed or mattress. Being able to lie down on the mattress and feel the difference between various bed ranges and collections is quite an eye-opener if you have always purchased a bed online. Everyone has different needs when it comes to sleep and mattresses come in firm, medium and soft options, so try a variety to know which is best for you. There is no industry-wide standard to compare firmness ratings from one manufacturer to the other.
Testing in-store means you will also get a chance to experience different-sized beds. Test different sizes, as you are more likely to sleep better when you have more space – especially if you are sharing with a partner. If your current bed is a UK double, this only gives each person the same space as a child has in their cot! Something to think about!

What to look for when buying a new bed or mattress?
Are you thinking of buying a new bed?
We all know that a good night’s sleep is essential, and the foundation of good sleep is a comfortable bed and mattress. Research shows that often, people do not make the connection between poor sleep and an uncomfortable bed. After all, beds don’t last forever, and the lifespan of a mattress is affected by how much you use it, your weight loss and gain, care, and changes in habits or lifestyle.
There are thousands of beds from which to choose, and any good retailer will help you make the right decision based on the best value, support and comfort you require. And you might be surprised to know that size does matter if you are a couple. You should both be able to lie side-by-side with your elbows out, not touching one another.
There is lots more helpful advice on how to choose the right bed.
