The exact life of a standard mattress is difficult to call. Many experts tend to figure 10 years. However, such a term will serve the product if the technology has not been violated in its manufacture. This term can be called conditional. Sometimes the bed needs to be updated after five years. How to determine the need for replacement? Certain symptoms will indicate this.

1. Clear signs of wear appeared on the orthopedic mattress. Small holes, visible damage to the threads, shabby seams - all this can not be ignored. Such factors indicate a strong physical deterioration of things. She needs to be replaced soon.
2. Through the fabric began to feel the metal elements. These are various elements of the frame, spring. If they are noticeable through the soft cover, sleep can not be calm. Metal will bite into the body, leave traces, prevent falling asleep. Over time, the frame geometry will begin to break.
3. There is no tangible body support. Depreciation is indicated by loss of comfort. The back should be supported by springs. If they sagged, the spine will be in a twisted position. This is not only uncomfortable. Prolonged sleep in this position can lead to serious health problems. This is especially dangerous for young children. Their skeleton is just beginning to form. Children need a quality orthopedic mattress.
4. The feeling of failure in certain places of the product. Failure indicates a failure of the spring unit. Repair such damage is impossible. Continue to operate the product too. Dips will contribute to incorrect load distribution. After sleep, a person may feel “broken”, tired.
5. There was a creak when moving on a double bed. This should immediately alert. The problem may lie in the design of the bed itself. But quite often the fault of the spring. They are made of metal. After several years of operation, poor-quality metal may emit various extraneous sounds under load.

Degree of rigidity

We select the rigidity of the mattress, depending on the weight and height of the sleeping person

Everyone has their own taste regarding the degree of softness of the bed. Someone likes a soft bed, someone - a firmer, more stable. However, when choosing the level of rigidity you need to consider not only your own preferences. The degree of rigidity is the most important criterion. It is selected based on the physiological characteristics of the person, the doctor's recommendations.

To sleep was comfortable, and the body rested, the spine should be a straight line, and all the bends of the body should flow around the mattress

A low degree of severity is recommended for people after fifty-five years. A soft bed gives an amazing feeling of comfort. During sleep, she literally envelops the whole body, giving him the opportunity to completely relax. Soft models do not put pressure on the vessels. They should be chosen by everyone who has problems with blood circulation. Also on a soft bed it will be comfortable for a person with a small weight to sleep - up to 55 kilograms.

In the role of soft mattress filler are usually soft, "air" materials.

Moderately soft beds are meant for middle-aged people. Their experts recommend anyone who has a sit-down job. A moderately soft frame will allow the spine to assume a natural position at night. It helps to relax, completely relieve tension from the waist.

Medium hardness is considered the best option for teens, young people. This degree is suitable for people weighing up to 90 kilograms. It is very comfortable to sleep on the back on the bed of medium hardness. Such a model will provide good support to the spine, will allow the muscles to relax after an active workout day.

Models from a series of medium hardness balance harmoniously between hard and soft mattresses and are suitable for most consumers.

The doctor’s hard sleeping surfaces are recommended for children. They perfectly fix the body in the correct position. This is very important for a child whose skeleton is just being formed. Also, this model is intended for people with problems of the cervical spine. The hard surface helps to relieve pain in the presence of intervertebral hernia, spinal curvature.

Hard mattress does not include soft fillers

High stiffness is not always the best choice. Such models are even contraindicated for some people.Buying them without special need is not worth it. High stiffness models are usually prescribed by an orthopedic surgeon. They are recommended to children under three years old, people whose weight is more than 100 kilograms. If overweight, a soft bed will be uncomfortable. Hard will be able to properly distribute the load, will ensure a person comfortable, healthy sleep.

We select the size of the product

Standard mattress sizes

Comfortable sleep largely depends on the successful selection of the size of the bed. An unsuitable product will constantly fiddle around the slats. In order not to be mistaken with the size, it is not necessary to pay attention to the standard parameters, notation. You should start by measuring your own bed. It is important to measure the inner perimeter. To do this, remove the old mattress from the bed, measure the perimeter with a tape measure.

After measurement, the parameters need to be written on the leaflet. Often the measurements are non-standard. For example, the width of the bed can be 81 centimeters instead of the standard 80 centimeters. Do not panic. One centimeter discrepancy is an absolutely acceptable norm. However, the differences are significant. If they exceed two centimeters, it means that buying a finished product directly from the store shelf will fail. In this case, there is one way out - to buy a mattress to order. This service will cost more. However, a product made by individual measurements, perfectly fit into the furniture. He will not "hang out" in it, wear out prematurely.

Custom bed sizes are not a reason to renounce a comfortable sleep, contact the specialists who will manufacture a mattress according to individual sizes.
