Mattress Shopping Though you may find bed-buying somewhat confusing after all, you don't do it very often and it's not easy to see what's inside research shows that the level of customer satisfaction with new mattresses is very high. The best way to ensure that you're a satisfied customer is to shop at a store you know and trust to give you good information, good service and top quality products. Look for educated salespeople who can guide you through the many choices. If you don't feel your salesperson is knowledgeable or helpful, take your business elsewhere. In most communities, there is an abundance of shopping choices from furniture stores to sleep specialty shops to department stores so you'll be able to find a store where you'll feel you're getting the right information and the right attention. And once your new sleep set has been delivered to your home, you'll probably be so happy with it that you'll wonder why you didn't buy a new bed sooner. Comparison Shopping for Mattresses
If
you're
a
shopper
who
likes
to
compare
values
from
store
to
store,
you
should
be
aware
that
comparison
shopping
by
model
name
might
lead
to
frustration.
You
probably
won't
find
the
same
model
name
in
one
store
as
you
did
in
another.
As
with
so
many
products
on
the
market
in
America
today
from
apparel
to
fine
furnishings
many
retailers
prefer
to
offer
products
that
are
exclusive
to
their
store.
So
find
a
sleep
set
you
like,
then
see
what
levels
of
comfort
and
support
you
can
get
for
the
same
amount
of
money
in
another
store.
Your
best
strategy
for
making
a
wise
purchase
is to
go to
a
store
where
the
sales
personnel
make
you
feel
comfortable,
are
knowledgeable
and
helpful.
Many
will
be
able
to
show
you
illustrated
or
actual
"cutaways"
of
the
interior
of
the
different
mattress
and
foundation
choices
so
you
can
see
what's
inside,
where
much
of
the
quality
is
hidden.
Don't
forget
to
compare
store
services
such
as
delivery,
financing
and
removal
of
old
bedding
as
well.
What to Look for When Buying a Mattress
COMFORT.
Gone
are
the
days
when
a
mattress
had
to be
hard-as-a-board
to be
good
for
you.
A
too-hard
mattress
may
only
succeed
in
putting
your
shoulders
and
hips
to
sleep.
You'll
sleep
best
when
your
bed
helps
you
feel
cradled
in
comfort,
cozy
and
secure.
SUPPORT.
Correct
support
is
the
essential
ingredient
for a
healthy
body.
A
good
mattress
and
foundation
will
gently
support
your
body
at
all
points
and
keep
your
spine
in
the
same
shape
as a
person
with
good
standing
posture.
DURABILITY.
It's
the
quality
of
the
materials
used
and
how
they're
put
together
that
determine
how
long
a
mattress
and
foundation
will
provide
the
comfort
and
support
you
bought
them
for.
The
best
assurance
of
good
performance
over
a
good
many
years
is to
buy
the
highest
quality
sleep
set
you
can
afford.
SPACE.
Cramped
quarters
can
turn
sleeping
into
a
nightly
wrestling
match.
A
healthy
sleeper
moves
anywhere
from
40-60
times
a
night,
including
some
dozen
full
body
turns.
You
need
freedom
of
motion
while
you
sleep
and
to
help
you
relax
while
getting
to
sleep.
