When to Change Your Mattress? 5 Signs to Discover

Goodbye to dreams of glory? Here's when changing your mattress becomes inevitable!

Yesterday you were sleeping like an angel, but now you struggle to find a comfortable position and wake up with aches and pains?

It's time to ask yourself if you need to change your mattress, especially because, let's be honest: you don't quite remember when you actually bought it and what its characteristics are.

But is there a precise rule on when to change the mattress? If you're not sure about this purchase, we'll give you some hints to clear your mind up!

5 Signs to Understand If You Need to Change Your Mattress:

1. It's 7 - 10 years old.

 Even mattresses age, and research shows that they have an average lifespan of about 8 years. This figure varies depending on many factors, such as the body shape and habits of the user, but what matters most is the quality of the product: if it's high, it guarantees excellent performance even for 8-10 years. But beware: you shouldn't just consider this parameter, but also periodically check the external conditions of the mattress for obvious hygienic reasons.

2. It sags.

If when you lie down on the mattress, you feel like sinking, it means that over the years, your weight has gradually changed the structure of the mattress and, therefore, it's no longer able to provide you with adequate support for a good night's sleep. It often happens that over time, double mattresses sink in the central part, leading to sliding inward.

Why? 

Pocket springs lose elasticity, latex softens, and memory foam deteriorates, especially if the material is of low quality.

3. You find it uncomfortable. 

You just can't find a comfortable position, and in the end, you fall asleep out of exhaustion? This is a clear indication that it's time to change the mattress. If it's no longer as comfortable as before, it may have worn out internally, even without showing obvious signs externally.

4. You wake up sore. 

A structure that's too rigid or too soft leads to assuming a wrong posture, and if over the years you've accumulated some back problems, it's important to choose appropriate support.

5. You suffer (suddenly) from allergies or asthma. 

If you've never suffered from breathing difficulties or asthma before, and lately, you've been experiencing some discomfort, you need to talk to your doctor first, but also consider whether your mattress could be to blame, especially if it's not dust mite-resistant. Dust mites accumulate in the mattress over the years, causing allergic reactions and even asthma attacks.
