Vi-spring: comfort vs. cost

Is it worth paying more for a really supportive and comfortable Vi-spring bed?

For many people, the thought of spending over £1,000 on a new mattress is a horrifying one. Yet it's true that people spend more money on their new television than they do on their new mattress. When you think about how important it is for your health and wellbeing that you get enough good quality sleep, it's amazing that so little is put aside for a new bed.

The cost issue

Why do we spend so little on our mattresses when:

• We know how important they are
• We only buy a new one every 10-15 years

It's an interesting question. Perhaps we're not really aware of how a well-constructed, supportive mattress can make a difference to our daily lives. Perhaps it's just an extra, unwanted cost and, of course, you can't see your mattress, so why spend so much money on it? Surely it's better to spend the money on a beautiful bed and save a little on the mattress itself?

Unfortunately, whether you're considering a Vi-spring mattress, or you've only budgeted for the cheapest mattresses on the market, you need to pay close attention to the level of comfort and support you're getting for your money. Choosing a mattress on cost alone could mean night after night of broken, uncomfortable sleep. Even paying thousands of pounds for a mattress doesn't guarantee that you'll sleep comfortably - which is why you need to look at a variety of mattresses at a variety of prices, and try out the ones that interest you so that you can see how comfortable they are. Don't ever buy a mattress without trying it - you sit on a sofa before you buy one, and it's not nearly as important to your health as a
mattress is.

Comfort and support are paramount when it comes to buying a new mattress and you should make sure that you get the most supportive and comfortable mattress you can afford.
