There are 5 main reasons that your mattress is uncomfortable.
1. Your mattress is old. The comfort life of a good mattress is typically 7-8 years. Many will keep their mattress for 15+ years. Yes your mattress will physically last that long but it won’t be comfortable because it will literally wear out over time. Don’t pass down your old bed to a child either, that is the worst thing you can do! Is your mattress uncomfortable? Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to them too?
2. Your mattress is not supported correctly. If you have a queen or king mattress on a box spring do you have a center support leg/cross member under it? If you have a split box spring you MUST have a center support. About half the time when I ask customers if they have a center support they say no. This will cause your mattress to sag in the middle. If you properly support your mattress from the first day it will last longer and be comfortable longer. If you do not support it from the first day it will wear out faster and become uncomfortable faster.
3. Your mattress was not good quality to begin with. Good mattresses are not cheap. But there are cheap mattresses that you can buy. If you bought a cheaply built mattress for a low price a few years ago it will become uncomfortable much faster than a good quality mattress for a couple hundred dollars more. Think of your mattress as an investment in good sleep. Spend a little more and get a better mattress.
4. Your springs are not supporting your body correctly. The springs in your mattress will wear out over time. They move every time you get into our out of bed. They are metal. Metal gets fatigued. The springs lose their tension. They will sag and move around over time. This is a normal part of a mattress wearing out over time. There is little you can do to prevent this except start with a better quality set of springs inside your mattress. Quick note, High coil count does not mean higher quality. There is A LOT that goes into the coils in your bed. Don’t rely just on a high coil count.
5. The foam in your mattress is compressed down. The foam in your mattress is the most comfortable it will ever be the first night you sleep on it. EVERY NIGHT AFTER THAT IT BECOMES MORE AND MORE COMPRESSED. Over time you WILL develop body impressions in your mattress. After a few years it will start to be less comfortable. At about 7-8 years it is time to buy a new one because the foam will be completely compressed down.
As you can see there is very little you can do to prevent any of these issues. The fact is your mattress WILL WEAR OUT over time and become uncomfortable. Think of a mattress like a set of tires on your car, you need to replace them every so often or something bad will happen. Same thing with a mattress. A good night sleep is priceless! Invest in a good quality mattress and sleep better.
