Time to buy a new mattress? Most of us don’t have hours to spend at a furniture store, so you might be wondering whether you can find the best mattresses online. As an online seller, we’re tempted to agree. After all we manufacture and sell our mattresses directly with no middleman, meaning you get the best price.

So, if you’re considering buying a mattress online, here are some tips to help you with the process.

 

Embrace the Freedom

Embrace the Freedom

Some people may worry about not being able to try a mattress out before buying like you can in a store. However, we’d say you can only feel the true comfort of a mattress from sleeping on it, not lying on it for two minutes with your coat on!

Buying a mattress online comes with lots of advantages. You can shop from the comfort of your own home, in your own time. There are no pushy salespeople to deal with and you get a quality mattress at a great price.

 

Think About Delivery

Think About Delivery

If you live in a flat or a home with limited access, bulky items like mattresses can be headache to deliver and manoeuvre. For this reason, a roll-up mattress, otherwise known as a bed in a box, is the ideal solution as they’re delivered in a box on wheels and so are a cinch to move upstairs and through tight doorways.

You’ll find the best roll-up mattresses online. Our roll-up pocket spring mattresses are hypoallergenic and topped with memory foam to offer targeted support and pressure relief.

 

Set Yourself a Budget

Set Yourself a Budget

There’s a lot of choice out there, so having a budget in mind will help you slim down your search results. You don’t want to unnecessarily get your heart set on a luxury mattress that you really can’t afford.

 

Come up with a Checklist

Come Up with a Checklist

Think about what you want your mattress to offer you. Do you suffer with back pain? Are you disturbed when your partner moves around at night? Do you have allergies? Do you tend to feel hot in bed? Having a checklist of priorities will help narrow down your search.

 

Ask Questions

Ask Questions

Just because you’re not in an actual showroom doesn’t mean that you can’t get any advice. We have a live chat facility, so feel free to ask us any questions you may have as we want to help find the best bed in a box for you.

 

Hard or Soft?

Think About the Firmness

Do you prefer a firm mattress or a soft mattress? Both have their advantages. Some people find a soft mattress more comfortable and offers more pressure support, while others prefer a firm mattress to keep them cool and offer better alignment of the spine and hips. Body weight also plays as part as the heavier you are, the firmer your mattress should be.

 

Check the Guarantee

Check the Guarantee

A new mattress is a considered purchase, and just like buying a mattress in store, a mattress bought online should come with a guarantee. For your peace of mind, all eze™ Mattresses come with a 10-year warranty.
