BUYING GUIDE

MATTRESSES

Welcome to our mattress—buying guide!

You might not have realized it, but your mattress is your home's most important piece of furniture. After all, we spend a third of our lives sleeping! That's why finding the perfect mattress is so crucial for a happy and healthy life.

Better Sleep Shop

At Morris Home and The Better Sleep Shop, we are thrilled to help you find your perfect mattress. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will guide you every step of the way to ensure you find what you need for a night of better sleep and a beautiful bedroom.

To start things off, let's look at all the different types of mattresses available. This information will be invaluable when it comes time to make your selection. Once we've covered that, we'll move on to everything else you need to know about choosing your perfect night's sleep.

When it comes to mattresses, there are a few key types that you should know about.

Innerspring mattresses are the most common and feature steel coils that compress under your weight. They're affordable and perfect for those who toss and turn in their sleep.


Memory foam mattresses have become increasingly popular due to their sinking-in feeling and comfort. They offer excellent support, making them ideal for individuals with posture problems or other health concerns.


Gel mattresses provide all the benefits of foam but without the heat retention issues. If you're looking for added cooling properties, a gel mattress is worth considering, even if it comes with a slightly higher price tag. No matter what type of mattress you choose, each one is unique and can help improve your sleeping experience substantially!


Latex Mattresses may not be as common as memory foam but, it's just as supportive and comfortable. It may not have that sinking feeling that some people rave about when it comes to memory foam, but the benefits of owning a latex mattress are undeniable. Not only does it remain cool like a gel mattress, but it also retains less heat and has some bounce to it.


Hybrid mattresses These beds are becoming increasingly popular because they combine the best elements of both innerspring and foam or gel options. With hybrids, you're getting the perfect mix of affordability, bounce, support, and comfort - what more could you ask for?


Before making your final purchase decision though, take some time to explore all your options with our knowledgeable associates at our Better Sleep Shop. Happy sleeping!

Choosing the right mattress size can bring pure joy into your life.

It all depends on your personal preference and what you want to achieve in your bedroom. For a balanced and spacious feel, consider including bedroom furniture such as wardrobes, dressers, nightstands, media chests, armoires, and of course - the bed! Did you know that on average we move almost 40 times during the night? That's why it's important to have enough space around the bed. Allow for at least 30" between the edge of the bed and the wall or make it 36" for an extra luxurious feel.

When choosing a mattress, remember comfort is king! Your priority is to find a comfortable mattress that will give you a peaceful night’s sleep so you can have the best possible days. Don't assume that a firm mattress means better support - take your own preference into account. If you like more sink-in feels, go for plush mattresses.

But most importantly - don't rush when making this important decision. Take some time to choose what will be your cozy nest for years to come!
