Useful advices

2. When choosing a mattress, consider the position of your body during sleep. If you usually sleep on your back - give preference to the mattress, on which your buttocks sink inwards, and the hips remain in their natural position. If you usually sleep on your side, choose a mattress on which your shoulders and hips sink inwards, and the waist gets the necessary support.
3. Take into account the mattress size matching your dimensions. So, the length of the mattress should be more than your height at least 15-20 cm. To check the correct width of the product, you need to press your hands against each other in the abdominal area with your fists. In this case, the distance between the elbows and the edge of the mattress should be at least 15 cm.
4. Pay attention to the weight of the mattress. If your weight is more than 90 kilograms, you can use a spring mattress with a reinforced block or a universal springless mattress that can withstand heavy loads. As an option - a special mattress for non-standard weight.
5. If you choose a mattress for people with different height, weight and physique, it is better to choose two different single mattresses, taking into account the individual characteristics of each.
6. When choosing a mattress, consider the age of the sleeper. It is believed that the older the person, the softer he needs a mattress.

However, it does not hurt and study the feedback of other buyers.
