Crucial Mattress Shopping Tips for Seniors
-
Health Considerations: Our team can help you address specific health conditions like arthritis, back pain, or allergies when selecting a mattress that will benefit these health concerns while also factoring long term considerations such as downsizing and other future needs.
-
Firmness and Support Levels: Finding a mattress that offers sufficient support without being too firm is important. Medium-firm mattresses offer balance, but we also consider individual comfort preferences. We see seniors who are back sleepers enjoy firm mattresses since it helps them with keeping their alignment straight. Our coil mattresses which have a foam encasement also allow for support which provides added support when getting in and out of bed.
-

We proudly also have a 10 year warranty on most of our mattresses so you can have peace of mind with long-term protection.
