Better Sleep = Better Life

How often do you moan, “Oh, my aching back!” when you get up in the morning? Do you wake up not feeling rested? It could be time for a new mattress. In fact, getting a new mattress just might make more of a difference than you can imagine.

Many of us forget that our mattresses are the most utilized piece of furniture we own. In fact, if you sleep eight hours a night, in one year you’ll rack up 3,000 hours on your mattress. After 10 years, you’ll have logged 30,000 hours on the same bed.

Time to buy a new mattress

There’s no set timetable for how long a mattress will last. Generally, a good mattress set will last 8-10 years, according to usage. But just ask yourself if you’re sleeping worse than a year ago. Are you waking up feeling stiff and sore, tossing and turning a lot, or is your partner’s tossing and turning waking you up? Does your mattress have any visible signs of wear? If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, then it’s time to consider getting a new mattress.

Support and Comfort

Today, the need is comfort, support, and durability. The “feel” of a mattress should be left to the person who will sleep on it. Gone are the days when a mattress had to be as hard as a board to be good for you. For example, The Serta™ Marble Falls bed offered by Hank’s provides superior comfort with special foam, firmer edges and a more comfortable sleeping surface for outstanding support.

Coils provide the essence of the support you feel in a mattress. Coil count, however, isn’t necessarily the most important aspect in a coil unit. Coil concentration and construction play even bigger roles. The Back Supporter Collection is designed and arranged with a greater concentration of coils in key areas where your body needs it most. Coils are placed closer together in the center, lending the necessary support to a sleeper’s hips and lumbar areas.

Our Simmons Beautyrest™ Collection offers the Pocketed Coil™ system famous since 1925. It is the standard for undisturbed sleep and unparalleled comfort. It is also recommended that when you select a mattress; purchase its companion box spring, also. The two are designed to work best together. The box spring acts as the shock absorber for the mattress, taking a lot of the nightly wear and tear and it contributes to your comfort and support.

Be Good to Yourself

A good mattress is a critical factor in one’s overall well-being. Buy a quality mattress that will last for years and provide the proper comfort to your body, rather than buying a mattress that won’t stand the test of time or meet your body’s needs. It truly will make a difference in how you greet the world everyday.

Shopping for mattress sets is a whole new ball game with the new advances in coils, types of foam (Latex and Visco™), and new foundations. It can be very confusing to attempt to choose the one that is right for you. To help with this process, Hank’s Furniture has trained bedding specialists on staff to assist you in making an informed decision as to which mattress is right for you. We offer a variety of bedding options with a wide range of support, comfort, durability, and pricing options to suit your individual needs.
