No one will argue that a properly selected mattress is the key to quality sleep.

Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", designer Yulia Tychino shared advice on choosing this necessary "accessory".

First of all, you should decide on the firmness of the mattress.

This parameter is individual – some people like soft, cloud-like surfaces, while others, in turn, prefer to sleep on a hard bed.

The main thing to remember is that the heavier a person is, the firmer the mattress they need.

Now we can move on to choosing a design, which, as is known, comes in several types: springless and spring, with dependent and independent spring blocks.

Here we have to answer the question of how many people will sleep on the mattress. For example, if the mattress is spring with a dependent block, this means that all the elements in it are connected to each other, and if one person tosses and turns in their sleep, the other will definitely feel it.

With an independent block, as you might have guessed, this does not happen. Another advantage is that since each spring is in its own cover, such a mattress will not creak.

By the way, good springless models have the same quality, but they weigh an order of magnitude more, so before buying, be sure to make sure that the bed base can withstand such weight.

Finally, don't forget about such an important factor as the height of the mattress.

Models that are less than 14 cm in height are suitable for children, while the standard height for an adult is 19-23 cm.
