Collection: MATTRESSES

Replacing your mattress every 7 to 10 years is generally advised, but this can vary depending on the type and quality of the mattress, as well as personal usage patterns. Signs that you may need to replace your mattress include noticeable sagging, lumps, or if you frequently wake up with aches and pains. Also, if you find that you're sleeping better on a different mattress (e.g., in a hotel or at a friend's house), it might be time for a change.

Memory foam mattresses are made from viscoelastic foam that conforms closely to the body, providing excellent pressure relief and motion isolation. They are ideal for side sleepers or anyone who experiences joint pain. However, they can retain heat, making them less suitable for hot sleepers unless they're infused with cooling technologies. Latex mattresses are more resilient and offer a bouncier feel than memory foam. They are naturally cooler and hypoallergenic, which makes them a good choice for people with allergies or those who prefer a more breathable mattress.

Yes, hypoallergenic mattresses are specifically designed to resist common allergens such as dust mites, mold, and bacteria. Natural latex mattresses are inherently resistant to these allergens, and many manufacturers treat their products with antimicrobial agents to enhance these effects. DeRUCCI mattresses are specially designed for allergy sufferers, incorporating advanced materials that minimize allergen exposure.

Absolutely. A mattress that provides proper support and comfort can greatly enhance sleep quality by promoting better posture, reducing pressure points, and minimizing nighttime disturbances. A well-chosen mattress helps keep the spine aligned, reduces tossing and turning, and can lead to longer periods of deep, restorative sleep. Conversely, a poor-quality mattress can contribute to discomfort and lead to chronic sleep issues such as back pain or insomnia.

Choosing the right mattress size depends on several factors, including room space, budget, and personal needs. Common sizes include Twin (suitable for children or single adults in small spaces), Full (for solo sleepers who want more space), Queen (ideal for couples or individuals who appreciate extra room), King (offers maximum width for couples), and California King (extra length, great for individuals). Consider bedroom dimensions, sleeping habits, and whether you share your bed when deciding on the size.

Firmness itself does not directly correlate with longevity. The durability of a mattress is more influenced by the quality of materials used, the manufacturing process, and how well it's maintained over time. High-quality springs, dense foams, and robust stitching all contribute to a mattress's lifespan. Regular care, such as rotating and using protective covers, can help extend the useful life of both firm and soft mattresses.

To maintain your mattress, use a mattress protector to guard against spills and stains. Regularly vacuum the surface to remove dust and allergens. For cleaning stains, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth, avoiding excessive moisture which can encourage mold growth. Rotate your mattress every three to six months to promote even wear and prevent sagging. If applicable, follow any specific care instructions provided by the manufacturer.
