Weighing whether buying a mattress online might be a mistake? More used to going in-store to test out mattresses? We think it's much better to buy a mattress online... here's why. Buying a mattress online, if you're doing it for the first time, might not seem like it makes good sense.
So, let us debunk the myth that going in-store to buy a mattress is your best option. It really isn't. Read on to be persuaded... 1. YOU GET A 100-DAY FREE TRIALMost modern mattress and bed companies now offer a free trial period when you order your mattress online – some up to 100 days long. That means, for up to three months, you get to sleep on your mattress in your own bedroom, wearing whatever you wear when you're in bed. Contrast that to going in-store on a Saturday, lying self-consciously on an undressed mattress in a hot store full of other shoppers for, oh, five minutes, wearing your clothes, possibly your coat and almost certainly your shoes. Doesn't really compare, does it? Each mattress company's trial length differs, but some also offer free trials on other products you might like to trial at the same time. 2. YOU GET A NO QUIBBLES RETURN If, at any time within your free trial, you're unhappy with the mattress you've bought online, you can return it for free, without its packaging, as long as you haven't damaged it. Each mattress company's trial period and returns policy is slightly different, so do check before you buy. However, once the return is sorted they’ll send a courier over to remove the mattress from your home and donate it to a local charity or recycling centre. They will then refund you the full value of your mattress and if you paid using instalments, you'll be refunded whatever you had paid up until that time and the agreement would be cancelled. Returns are free, but any premium delivery charges will not be refunded. Not bad, eh? 3. UNBIASED MATTRESS REVIEWS GIVE YOU THE LOW-DOWNIt's pretty tricky to research the mattress you've just hopped on and off of in-store. If you're hunting down the best mattress for your needs online, you can do all the metaphorical legwork from your own home. RealHomes have carried out tons of unbiased mattress reviews – an experienced member of their team has inflicted thorough mattress testing on herself, her husband and family. You can read all their mattress reviews on their dedicated page. But do bear in mind that what you need to choose a mattress suited to your sleep position (more on that in a minute). 4. MATTRESS BUYING GUIDES HELP YOU DEFINE YOUR SLEEP POSITIONYou might not know that you should choose a mattress to suit your sleep position, be it side, back, front or fidgety... Each sleep position requires a different mattress firmness and filling to be really comfortable. So, have a think about your most usual sleep position, and whether you suffer from backache or allergies, too, and pick your mattress accordingly. 5. DOUBLE MATTRESSES CAN COME IN AN EASY-TO-HANDLE BOXThought buying a mattress online would mean that a great big slab of mattress appears in your hallway, only to languish there until such a time as a couple of burly friends are available to help you carry it upstairs. Think again, some mattresses can be delivered in a box that's about the size of a small child (although somewhat heavier). And don't worry, these mattresses are designed so that they can be folded small, so the boxing doesn't affect quality. You simply have to unfurl and leave them to return to their intended size. 6. YOU CAN USE PRICE COMPARISONS TO GET THE BEST DEALIf you're looking for a mattress deal, the best place to find one is online. Okay, there might be a store sale you can take advantage of if you buy on the high street, but can you be sure that the particular mattress on sale isn't cheaper elsewhere? Plus if you buy online, you can use price comparison buttons to ensure you get the best deal that very minute... 7. SOME MATTRESS RETAILERS WILL DISPOSE OF YOUR OLD ONEHaving a new mattress delivered is all very exciting but what do you do with the old one? That's a whole lot of furniture to dispose of. Many mattress companies will dispose of your old mattress when you buy a new one. They simply pick up your old bed or mattress directly from your home when they deliver your new one, and recycle your item at their own specialised bed and mattress recycling centre or donate it to a charity. 8. YOU CAN BUY A PILLOW TO MATCH YOUR MATTRESS CHOICEYou should know that a new pillow should ideally be bought at the same time as a new mattress – or at least with the mattress' fillings and firmness rating in mind. So, if you've got a hard mattress, a soft pillow will be your best bet; with a soft mattress, a firmer pillow will be the best choice. That said, like mattresses, pillows are very much an individual choice. 9. YOU CAN ORDER MATTRESS TOPPERS ONLINE, TOO. Same principles apply. In fact, mattress toppers are a better online buy because how they feel is very much dictated by what's underneath them. Just check out those T&Cs so you know what you're signing up for. 10. YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET OUT OF BED TO ORDER A MATTRESS ONLINE Laptop on, a cup of your favourite brew to hand, the latest ep of Game of Thrones on. Enough said.
