The buyer's guide to choosing a bed or mattress

The size of your bed or mattress has a direct impact on the quality of your sleep and impacts the layout of your bedroom. Guarantee yourself a good night’s rest and improve your bedroom living space by choosing the right size bed or mattress. Once you start searching for a mattress, you may realize that there are many factors that you need to keep in mind to help you make a good choice. The most important bed buying considerations are:

Your Budget

Having a budget in mind is the first step to choosing your next bed or mattress. Once you know how much you’re prepared to spend, the Mattress Warehouse can help you pinpoint all your options.

Your Sleep Needs

We stock a variety of different types and brands of beds and mattresses. Ask yourself some basic questions, like: are you sleeping alone or with a partner? What special preferences do you have when it comes to things like mattress firmness, bed length or mattress dimensions?

Your Bedroom Space

When you select a particular bed or mattress, you need to take into account the size of your bedroom. A bed that is too large will make a small room feel cramped. A smaller bed or mattress may look lost in a spacious room. Likewise, a king sized mattress is extremely comfortable when set-up, but it may be too difficult to manoeuvre into your home.

A single bed size is an excellent choice for a kid’s bedroom or a spare room because of its smaller size and adaptability. Our single beds and mattresses are ideal for those who need extra space because of a small room size or if you need to accommodate multiple sleepers, like a hostel. And while single beds are smaller and more affordable than larger bed types, they do not lack in quality at the Mattress Warehouse.

This bed size offers a little bit more room than a single bed, but still gives you enough space if you’re working with limited bedroom space.

Adjustable Beds

What is an adjustable bed? This is a bed with a base that can be lowered or raised independently. It’s great if you’d like to raise the bed to read or watch TV or find that perfect comfy spot.

Adjustable beds are also a good health benefit for those with certain medical conditions. Some people may need assisted comfort that provides pain relief or recovery. The Mattress Warehouse stocks the Sealy Posturematic S600 Motion Bed.

Upholstered Bed Bases

An upholstered bed base incorporates material or fabric onto the base as an overlaid padding layer.
