3 Insider Tips for Buying a Mattress Online
Ok, on to the good stuff. Below are our 3 best tips to make buying a mattress online easy.
1. Reviews Are Your Friends
This may seem like a no-brainer, but reviews are there to be read! You can find answers to your questions by reading reviews from other happy sleepers. They can attest to the comfort and quality of the mattress you’re considering. So settle in with a cup of coffee (or wine, we won’t judge) and read up. Here are a few of our favorites:
2. Know What You’re Looking For (AKA What Does Comfy Mean to You)
Pay attention to your sleep habits so you know what matters most to you in a mattress. If you know what you’re looking for, you’ll be more successful in selecting the perfect mattress for your needs.
Not sure where to start? Your preferred sleeping position can help you choose the proper level of firmness for your comfort. For example, side sleepers may like a softer mattress, while back sleepers may prefer medium firmness. Stomach sleepers may require a firmer mattress to support their alignment while they sleep.
Sleep position, body weight, and personal preferences all play into your comfort—and your quality of sleep. Luckily, our hybrid coil spring and memory foam bed mattresses are the perfect balance between soft and firm for most sleepers. Learn more about what a hybrid mattress is and what makes them great!
3. Test It Out
Bet you didn’t see this one coming! Before you commit to any mattress, read up on the brand’s sleep trial and the return policies. Once you’ve done your research and decided on a mattress, all that’s left is to sleep on it—literally!
Since you can’t test drive your new mattress before you buy, we offer a 100-night risk-free trial on all Allswell mattresses* so you can rest easy. If you aren’t in love, return it for a refund! For even more peace of mind, all Allswell mattresses come with a 10-year limited warranty and 3-year accident protection plans (which you can upgrade to 7 or even 10 years for a small fee if you like).
