How do you choose the right mattress?

A good mattress is especially important for your physical and mental recovery during the night. If you want a good night's sleep, a mattress that is adapted to your body shape and sleeping needs is essential. But how do you make the right choice? Our sleep experts are happy to help you get started so that you know what you should definitely pay attention to when purchasing a new mattress.

1.Support properties

There is no one right mattress. This is different for every body, as factors such as height, weight, body shape and sleeping position differ for every person. The most important thing is that the mattress perfectly supports your spine. Only then can you sleep comfortably.

In general, firm mattresses are often recommended for those with a firmer build, while soft mattresses are often preferred by slimmer individuals. However, it remains important to remember that manufacturers can create different zones, such as specific shoulder & hip zoning, in a mattress with varying firmness, ensuring the right support for every body type. A supportive mattress ensures that your body weight is evenly distributed over the surface and the natural curvature of the spine is supported. To be sure of this, it is best to test the mattress in the store. Our sleep experts are happy to explore the options with you.

2. A comfortable feeling

An important element when purchasing a new mattress is the first contact, the first feeling you experience. That feeling mainly depends on the top comfort layer of your mattress. Mattresses consisting of cold foam, memory foam or pocket springs often contain different comfort zones at pressure points that provide firmer or softer pressure. This support prevents pain in the back, shoulders, hips or neck during the day.

At Bosmans we have various mattress brands with different materials in our range: Auping , Beka , Lattoflex , Mline , Nill Spring , Swissflex , Technogel and Tempur . Each mattress line consciously builds in special comfort layers that meet your requirements. Take a look at the overview on our website.

 3. Temperature control

Being too hot or too cold at night can disrupt your sleep. In order to sleep well, it is important that it does not get too hot or too cold in bed. That is why our sleep experts recommend that you consider carefully whether you generally get cold easily at night or sweat regularly before choosing a mattress.

If you often suffer from heat at night, it is smart to choose a mattress with a top layer of a cooling gel, such as Technogel , or natural materials such as wool, cotton and/or horsehair. Gel keeps your body cool and also provides a supportive night's sleep, while natural materials ensure good temperature regulation and moisture drainage. Wool is the perfect temperature regulator, both for people who get hot or cold quickly, while cotton, on the other hand, absorbs your body moisture and horsehair wicks away this moisture naturally. Ideal for people who often suffer from sweating or for people with a (severe) form of dust mite allergy. Hästens is the absolute textbook example of this.

4. Take skin irritations and allergies into account

You can always go to our store in Heist-op-den-berg to have your mattress cleaned . With a deep cleaning we remove 99.97% of the dust mite droppings. This can reduce allergic reactions.
