If the average person acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure s 8 hours of sleep a night that amounts to 26 years of their life spent sleeping and an estimated 7 years spent trying to fall asleep. That s a whooping 36 years spent in bed! With just those numbers alone it s eliminate’remove why choosing the right bed is so significant’essential’critical’vital’crucial’indispensable’imperative .
However with so many different beds to choose from it doesn t exactly make the decision process easy and that s bein/with regard to’concerning’regarding e you ve even moved on to claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate ing with regards to’concerning’with respect to what mattress to buy.
Why Does Having The Right Bed Matter?
We all know how rubbish we feel if we possess’own’nurse n t had a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent night s sleep. Whether it s because you can t convert’transform off, your partner s snoring, you ve spent too long on a screen too late at night, there s too much light in the room, you re too hot, too cold, you can t acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure comin/with regard to’concerning’regarding table, there can be many different reasons as to why we struggle to fall asleep or feel as despite’in spite of’albeit we possess’own’nurse n t had rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent quality sleep. And one of the reasons in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile night s sleep is because we re not sleeping on the right kind of bed.
Did you know that you share your bed with lots of other co-sleepers? Roughly 10 million of them to be exact yep we re talking dust mites. They live in our mattresses and feed on our dead skin cells. Add to that our own bodily fluids, such as sweat and drool, our beds can be pretty manky places indeed!
But hygiene reasons aside, an old or wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile ly maintain’sustain ing bed can mean all manner of problems, including:
Back pain
Joint pain
Asthma
Allergies
Lack of sleep which equates to moodiness, decreased reactions, lack of motivation, we are more likely to eat unhealthy foods, undergo daytime drowsiness, poor judgement and can even bring about’result in’contribute to’account for’make for’trigger more serious health conditions if lack of sleep becomes a continual problem.
Do Your Research
No matter what you buy, it is always a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent idea to do your research first and this is especially true when it comes to buying a bed. Websites such as thesleepstation.co.uk are a great starting point to explore a range of different beds that will help you narrow down your choices and reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue you what s out there. It s a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent idea to reserve mark any useful articles you find, this one in/with regard to’concerning’regarding example (just saying 😉 ), as well as any beds you like the look of. Of course this is merely’barely the initial research stage and you may find your choices are geared more towards how a bed looks rather than the practical side of things. That s utterly understandable, I ve done it myself, but it will at least help you from a detoken point of view which you can come back to after you possess’own’nurse also considered the factors below.
Who Is The Bed For?
A bed is a bed right? Well yes, but a lot can depend on who the bed is in/with regard to’concerning’regarding . For example a young child will possess’own’nurse intensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfully different requirements from a bed than say an older, less able person. You will need to initially’originally claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate with regards to’concerning’with respect to what size bed is best suited to that person. A toddler or young child is probably best off with a bed aimed at them and this will also give you the option of making it fun, by choosing one in a peculiar colour or that features their favourite character. Children s beds usually possess’own’nurse features such as bed rails to stop them falling out, which is really handy when they re making the transition from bed to cot. In order to future proof a child s bed it may be worth considering choosing something like a mid or high sleeper that has room in/with regard to’concerning’regarding storage or even a desk or a trundle bed underneath. This will save you having to spend more money, as they won t out grow it. If you re looking to buy a bed in/with regard to’concerning’regarding an older relative, claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate with regards to’concerning’with respect to whether they will need an adjustable bed to help them acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure in and out and also whether it has adjustable back maintain’sustain should they need to sleep propped up. Establishing who the bed is in/with regard to’concerning’regarding is key to breaking down what it is you actually need from a bed. And the best way to narrow down your choices is by straight away’in a flash’promptly’instantaneous’in a trice eliminating the ones that are not suitable from your search.
Different Types Of Bed
There are so many choices of bed out there, which is great we all like choices after all, but it does mean you can end up not really knowing where to start. Bunk beds, cabin bed, mid-sleeper, high-sleeper, divan, ottoman, sofa bed, single, twin, double, king, queen, Caliin/with regard to’concerning’regarding nia king, four poster, canopy, trundle, day bed, adjustable, adjustable bed with massage, and these are merely’barely a few! I would recommend working out what size is going to work best (more on this in a bit) in/with regard to’concerning’regarding example is the bed in/with regard to’concerning’regarding just one person or is it in/with regard to’concerning’regarding two, in which case you need to claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate with regards to’concerning’with respect to looking in/with regard to’concerning’regarding at least a double sized bed. Again the different types of bed must relate to the user s requirements, it s ultimately not just with regards to’concerning’with respect to sleep, there s storage solutions and detoken elements to take into consideration too.
Make Sure It Fits!
This is an significant’essential’critical’vital’crucial’indispensable’imperative one, because the last thing you need is to go ahead and order the perfect bed merely’barely in/with regard to’concerning’regarding it to be delivered and it doesn t fit. Make sure you measure the space where your new bed is going to go and allow in/with regard to’concerning’regarding room to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure out without hitting your head on the ceiling or walls. But it s not just with regards to’concerning’with respect to measuring where the bed will be positioned, you also need to factor in how the bed will be manoeuvered to its final spot. Most bedrooms are located on the second floor, sometimes they may be on the third, or even higher if you live in a flat or apartment, and so despite’in spite of’albeit t has to be taken with regards to’concerning’with respect to how easy it will be to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure the bed up the stairs and whether there is abundant’ample’plentiful turning space. Some beds come in separate parts and require you to establish them yourself, whereas others come as a solid fixed frame and so will need to go up in one piece. Is there abundant’ample’plentiful room in/with regard to’concerning’regarding it to fit through your doors and up your stairs?
Some companies offer a deli grossly service which includes taking the bed to the room it will be located in and others may also set it up and establish it in/with regard to’concerning’regarding you. Be sure to check whether this is a service on offer to you as it s much better to opt in/with regard to’concerning’regarding this rather than struggling to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure it up there yourself. You risk putting your back out or damaging your paintwork, whereas companies who offer this service will possess’own’nurse insurance to cover them in/with regard to’concerning’regarding these eventualities if they do the move themselves.
One other thing you need to account in/with regard to’concerning’regarding is the height of the bed. Bunk beds and high sleepers need to allow room in/with regard to’concerning’regarding individual to sit up in bed without risking hitting your head on the ceiling and an ottoman bed needs to possess’own’nurse space in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the mattress and base to possess’own’nurse abundant’ample’plentiful room to tilt.
Does The Mattress Matter?
In a word . yes. The mattress is arguably the most significant’essential’critical’vital’crucial’indispensable’imperative part of your new bed, as this what you directly lie on and this is where you acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure your maintain’sustain from. First and in/with regard to’concerning’regarding emost you must make sure you buy the correct size mattress in/with regard to’concerning’regarding your bed as an ill-fitting mattress will possess’own’nurse a much lower lifespan and will also affect how well (or not well) you sleep. Mattresses can range in price from tens of pounds to hundreds and thousands of pounds and you do fundamental ally acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure what you pay in/with regard to’concerning’regarding . Remember we spend 36 years of our life in bed!
Just as you did when choosing your bed, do your research and investigate the different types of mattress available. Most mattress suppliers (if they possess’own’nurse a reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue room) will allow you to visit them to try the mattress out by lying on it. This is definitely worth doing so that you can feel in/with regard to’concerning’regarding yourself how comin/with regard to’concerning’regarding table the mattress is bein/with regard to’concerning’regarding e committing to buy.
For hygiene reasons and to multiply the lifespan of your mattress you should aim to turn it eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfully months. To make the turning process easier you should ideally choose a mattress that is relatively lightweight and easy in/with regard to’concerning’regarding you to manage. The best flippable foam mattress is one that is made out of air foam, such as the selection available from Nolah.
There are lots of things to claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate with regards to’concerning’with respect to when choosing the right bed. Hopefully this inin/with regard to’concerning’regarding mation has helped simplify the decision process in/with regard to’concerning’regarding you and will assure’guarantee you can go on to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent night s sleep. Night night!
