Vi-spring - spend your money wisely

It may seem costly at first, but a Vi-spring mattress is a real investment.

How much have you planned to spend on your new mattress? Did you know that you spend a third of your life in bed and that a good night's sleep can help you perform better at work, and be healthier and happier than if you sleep badly? With that in mind, is two or three hundred pounds really enough to get you the mattress that you need? Think about this:

• Lifetime cost - most mattresses last between eight and ten years. This means that you can break the cost down into yearly, monthly, or even nightly amounts, to show how much a good night's sleep is worth. A really good mattress, like those made by Vi-spring, will last longer than the average mattress, so you may be paying more initially, but you are getting more for your money, and the lifetime cost is still pretty small. For example, one of Vi-spring's most expensive mattresses, a king-size Sublime Supreme, costs around £5,400. That sounds like a lot of money for a mattress - but even over 10 years, that works out at less than £1.50 per night - or 75p per person if you share your bed.

• Good sleep - research consistently shows that a good night's sleep makes a huge difference to how we function during the day. Buying a cheaper mattress may mean that your sleep is never as good as it could be, even when the mattress is brand new, and it will almost certainly go downhill as the mattress suffers from wear and tear. A Vi-spring mattress is not just made to last, it's made to give you the best night's sleep you've ever had - for years and years to come.

You may not have considered spending more than a token amount on your mattress, but many people don't blink at spending thousands of pounds on sofas - where you spend much less time, and whose function isn't nearly as important. Think about what you can afford and get the best mattress your money can buy.
