There are many different types of mattresses to consider including latex, foam, inner spring, pillow-top, plush, firm and more. And getting a new mattress can be a lot like buying a car. You’ve got to compare features and price from brand to brand and take many variables into account when visiting a mattress store. At The Mattress Superstore, we are experts in all things mattresses and have heard some interesting myths about mattresses over the years. And some of these myths can actually influence the way people buy mattresses. So, we are here to help debunk those myths and help you determine what kind of mattress is best for you and your needs.



Should I replace my mattress every eight years? Myth!
Although it’s often recommended to replace your mattress every seven to ten years, every mattress is different. The wear on your mattress depends on its quality, how you sleep on it and how often it is rotated. You’ll know when it’s time to replace your mattress – so don’t always rely on the 8 year rule. The experts at our mattress store can tell you even more!

Removing the tag on your mattress is illegal. Myth!
This one is our favorite! The truth is once you’ve bought the mattress and it’s in your home, you can do whatever you want with it. Please take not, though! If you ever need to file a warranty claim, it needs to be attached to the mattress because it contains critical information that will help the manufacturer process your claim.

A mattress should feel perfect the moment I lay down on it. Myth!
Usually, you will need at least a month to adjust to a new mattress. Muscles and joints have a memory of how to find the most comfortable spot. And, when you get a new mattress you must allow your body to adjust to this new surface. Stop by our mattress store and we can help you choose the mattress that makes this transition as smooth as possible.

A firm mattress is better for everyone’s back. Myth!
Although firm mattresses are best for helping some people’s back problems, that isn’t necessarily the case for everyone. You need a mattress that conforms to your personal sleeping positions while supporting all areas of your body. Whether you choose a soft, medium firm or firm mattress; you need to find the one that best offers support and conformability for you.
