- Give your present mattress set a thorough check - look at the
age, condition, support, resiliency, and appearance.
- Think about size - an old-fashioned double bed provides the
same amount of space per person as a baby crib -- bigger is better.
- Buy a set, not just the mattress - a mattress and its foundation
are designed to work best together.
- Don't try to comparison shop by model names - it's very tough
to find the same model names from store to store; get the mattress'
comfort and support specifications and comparison shop with those.
- Spend as much as you can afford - shop for the best value, not
the lowest price.
Support
Support is how well the mattress provides positive resistance to
each person's body weight. Classic Sleep Products sleep systems
offer correct back support regardless of firmness. This is the goal
of our company, to provide the most technologically superior sleep
systems available.
The myth "firmer is better" is not necessarily true.
A mattress that's too firm will not support all parts of the body
evenly. It tends to support only at the body's heaviest parts, the
shoulders and hips. The increased pressure on these points reduces
blood circulation and will cause tossing and turning. This may result
in a poor night's sleep and a far less productive day.
A mattress that's too soft will not keep the spine in proper alignment.
This will cause muscles to work through the night at straightening
the spine, again leaving one tired and aching in the morning resulting
in a less effective day.
Support is a function of the core of the mattress. The core is
located in the center of the mattress. The type of support it provides
depends on its configuration and design of the mattress. Our mattresses
utilize highly specialized foams such as Visco elastic and latex
to provide the very best in support.
Durability
No doubt you want a sleep system that is going to last; therefore,
durability is very important.
The type of materials used in the upholstery and the type of foam
and design of the mattress impact the durability of the mattress.
Our foams have all been rigorously tested for long term durability.
We utilize mattress covers that are made of all natural fibers such
as cotton and we fill them with natural fibers such as Joma wool
from New Zealand. These materials are all designed with your comfort
in mind and designed for long lasting durability.
The purpose of the foundation is to extend the life of the sleep
system. It absorbs the major portion of stress and weight placed
on the sleep surface. It works much like a "shock absorber"
in a car's suspension to eliminate stress in the mattress unit and
prolong the mattress comfort life.
A worn-out foundation can shorten the life of a mattress up to
50%. Using no foundation with your mattress can also shorten the
life of a mattress. A properly designed foundation provides strong
support along with some flex.
Comfort
Comfort, how the mattress feels, is a matter of personal preference.
What feels comfortable to one person may feel uncomfortable to another
person.
Surface comfort is determined by the mattress cover and its fill
of the bed. Upholstery refers to the various layers of material
between your body and the foams. Both the type and thickness of
these materials will produce different levels of feel and therefore
different degrees of comfort.
All of our mattresses are designed to offer the ultimate in comfort
and support. Feel confident in whichever one you choose will offer
the same amount of comfort and support.
