There are some things that we do that make us realise we have actually become an adult. It is different for everyone. For some it’s buying a house, for others having children. For me it was buying a mattress.

Obviously when I was a child/teen, my parents did things like buying mattresses. I left home and moved in with someone who already had a house and all the furnishings, so again I was sorted. It wasn’t until I got divorced and moved to a smaller place with my kids I realised what a state my bed was in. So, there I was, 32 and having to buy an important piece of furnishing for the first time.

I had no idea what I was looking for. My dad came with me and was exasperated by my lack of knowledge. The kids were happy though as there was a large plate of biscuits on the sales floor that they could help themselves to!

Having to make this important choice was what made me think to myself I’m a grown up now!

There are so many things to consider when buying a new mattress, It is something you have to think about. If you get the wrong one you are going to be uncomfortable and not sleep well and sleep is really important.

You need to know what size mattress you need for your bed frame. If it is too big/small it won’t fit the frame and will be uncomfortable. There should be at least 75cm space around the side and foot of the bed.

You also have to consider what the mattress will be made of. There are a few different types of springs to choose from. Each type provides a different type of support for your body, so make sure to read about them all so you choose the right one.

There are also foam mattresses. I am sure you have all heard of memory foam. Take a look at these as well, especially if there is a part of you that maybe needs extra support.
