Buying a Mattress Online? Read This First!

YOU BOUGHT A MEMORY FOAM MATTRESS ONLINE. NOW WHAT?

You’ve spent hours looking at memory foam mattresses online, and you finally decided on one. It will be delivered all rolled up in a box right to your doorstep.

This is perhaps the coolest thing to hit the mattress industry in the last century. A mattress shipped right to your door, and you didn't have to leave your living room!

But one question threatens to rain on your parade: Where are you going to put it? And a mattress on the floor might have worked in college, but these days it might have your friends with any sense of décor thinking you've never heard of HGTV.

So, should you go super high-end on a platform or box spring? For foundations, just like mattresses too, pricier doesn’t necessarily mean you'll be more satisfied. 

Your mattress deserves a mate that is designed specifically to support it – and you. So before you drop your mattress down on just anything, consider this:

1. WHAT’S YOUR BEDROOM STYLE?

Whether your design style is modern urbanite, whimsical Boho, homey farmhouse or some dot on the map in between, you can’t go wrong with a clean look that complements any style.

Look for timeless simplicity with solid function that will stay with you as your taste and trends change.

Whatever your style, keep your bed simple and sleek. Great design begins with great bones -- a clean canvas, if you will. Choose a bed base that you can build on and change out for years to come.

2. WHAT’S YOUR BED FRAME BUDGET?

Look for a bed base that will shore up your mattress without sag, slipping, noise or a ridiculous price tag. Think bang for your buck. It doesn’t have to cost a fortune to be stylish and suitable.

Remember: The base you put under your mattress is just as important as the mattress you put under your body!
