One of the hardest decisions in decorated or moving into a new home is selecting a brand new bed. This might make me sound insufferably picky (let’s be real, I kind of am), but let’s really think about it. It’s obvious that some beds and mattresses are easier to sleep on than others. Unfortunately, the people at the furniture showroom won’t let me sleep on their displays anymore. If you’re feeling lost, here are some tips for buying the right bed for you. The first thing you should do is your own research in both person and online. Sleep is an important part of our health, and as such there’s new research being done all the time. You might still be carrying around certain myths about what a good mattress or bed is. Some people believe that the firmer a mattress is, the better it is for your back. If you were one of those people, you need to drop that rule immediately! If you struggle with back pain, especially in your lower spine, then some would advise going for a medium firmness mattress. A rock solid mattress may help with your back problems, but may also give you a new issue with sleep deprivation! If you’re in doubt, talk to your physician or a specialist. There’s a lot of emphasis on how a mattress affects our spines, especially from memory foam firms. However, there’s been a few recent developments which aim to make the beds themselves easier on our spines. One of the biggest new trends in beds is “flexible base” models. These have multiple rows of artificial, flexible slats, designed for a more comfortable and healthy sleep. Go to https://www.izonebed.com/flex-zone-bases.html for an idea of what I’m talking about. That particular model even includes adjustable slats, which can be rearranged to fit your specific needs in terms of back support. Again, you should talk to your doctor before spending money on a new model of bed. While some of these will do wonders for you, there’s always the chance that you might be buying into a useless gimmick. Once you’ve settled on a bed, be sure to keep the proof of purchase. You won’t be able to tell if it’s right for you until you’ve spent a few weeks on it. A lot of people neglect to pay attention to their quality of sleep, but make a point to. Focus on how you feel lying in your new bed, and if you’re waking up at odd times. You should also think about how you feel in the mornings.

If there are any glaring issues, you don’t want to be stuck with an expensive bed. For this reason, you should always look for bed stores who offer a generous returns policy. 30 days should do it, but take your time and find the longest period possible.
