Find your Perfect Mattress at Steinhafels in just TWO Steps!

Have you ever thought about how much time you spend on your mattress? The average person spends about 11 hours a day lying on their bed – that’s nearly half of your lifetime. Mattresses are designed to provide the comfort and support you need for a restful night’s sleep, and should be replaced about every 7 - 10 years. If you’ve had your mattress longer than that, it’s probably time to buy a new one!

Research shows that people sleep better, suffer fewer aches and pains, and experience fewer symptoms of stress when sleeping on a new mattress. Your sleep quality improves if your sleep surface relieves pressure on joints and other areas of the body. Buying a new mattress helps improve your sleep, health, and quality of life!

Mattresses are made from materials that are intended to provide comfort. These materials range from different types of foam to cotton or even wool. Advanced technologies provide innovations in comfort that relieve pressure, keep you cooler, and provide antimicrobial benefits when you sleep.

Alright, let’s get started!

 
  • To find the perfect mattress, you'll need to understand the different types available. Innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid mattresses all have unique benefits that can cater to different types of sleepers. For instance, if you're on a budget, innerspring mattresses are typically the most affordable option. If you share your bed with someone who tends to move around a lot during the night, however, a hybrid mattress might be a better choice for you since the foam layers can help isolate motion. Let’s elaborate:

  • A traditional innerspring mattress is a type of mattress that uses steel coils for support. It is one of the most popular types of mattresses available and has a classic springy feel. Innerspring mattresses are also breathable, thanks to the airflow between the coils. This makes them a great option for hot sleepers. Because they range from medium-firm to extra-firm, innerspring beds are best for back sleepers and stomach sleepers who need extra support.

  • If you're looking for a mattress that will contour to your body and provide support for all sleeping styles, a memory foam mattress may be right for you. Memory foam mattresses are made from viscoelastic foam, which is a type of high-density polyurethane foam. This material softens in response to body heat and pressure, giving the mattress a plush feel. Most memory foam mattresses are not made entirely of memory foam, as they would be too soft and you would sink too deeply into the bed. Instead, they usually have layers of memory foam of varying thicknesses and densities for comfort and support.

  • Hybrid mattresses are the perfect combination of innerspring and memory foam, offering increased support and body-contouring for a comfortable night's sleep. The pocketed coil system provides support while the multiple layers of foam contour to your body, relieving pressure points. This makes hybrid mattresses ideal for all sleeping positions, especially combination sleepers who often change positions throughout the night. In addition, many hybrids contain cooling materials like gel or graphite to keep you comfortable all night long. This makes them an excellent choice for hot sleepers who need extra breathability. So if you're looking for a versatile mattress that will keep you cool and comfortable, a hybrid is the perfect option!

  • The comfort of a mattress refers to the initial feeling you experience when lying on it. The right mattress firmness will provide you with neutral spinal alignment, which is important for a restful night’s sleep. There are 3 types to choose from: firm, medium, and plush.

  • Great for Back and Stomach Sleepers! Firm comfort provides strong support without relieving pressure. Firm mattresses work best for larger people (usually offering more support and more able to handle heavier body weights) and for people with mobility issues (making it easier to change positions and get in and out of bed).

  • Great for Side, Back, and Restless Sleepers! Medium comfort has ultimate conformity to support your body where it needs it most while relieving pressure. Medium mattresses work best for people who switch between sleeping positions, who sleep with a partner who may have slightly different comfort preferences, and for people who need pressure relief.

  • Great for Side Sleepers! Plush comfort offers more cushion and reduces pressure points. Plush mattresses work best for people with pain issues and for couples (they handle motion transfer better than firm).
