A lot of changes come with marriage, including sharing a bed. You now have another person to consider, and you want to choose a mattress that meets both of your needs. Keep the following in mind to make a selection you’ll both love for years to come.

Your Guide for Purchasing a Mattress as a Couple

1. Consider Sleeping Positions

Everyone sleeps differently, so find a mattress that accommodates both of your sleeping positions. Medium-firm is best for back sleepers; side sleepers may prefer a supportive latex foam option with plenty of “give”; stomach sleepers might want a firm mattress. Test the options at the store before purchasing yours.

2. Consider Health Conditions

If your spouse has a pre-existing health condition, that may affect which mattress you choose. If they have chronic lower back pain, memory foam may be best. People with sleep apnea usually do best with a reclining or adjustable mattress. If your spouse needs mobility assistance, this is also a good option. Many mattress stores carry specialty products that can help.

3. Focus on Long-Term Value

You may be avoiding higher-quality mattresses because of their price-tag, but think about your investment. This is a long-term purchase, so consider the lasting value rather than the current price. Cheaper options will wear out sooner and can interfere with your sleep, which can be more costly in the long-run.
