How Long Have You Been Sleeping on the Same Mattress?


Fact of life: Mattresses don't last a lifetime, even though some of us feel like we've been sleeping on our current mattress for almost that long! Not only does an older mattress lack whatever support it once provided, it's also likely filled with "stuff" (dust mites and bed bugs -- yuck!) that could literally be affecting your health! If you're waking up with a sore back, a rash, or other symptoms of allergies, it's not a stretch to think that your old mattress may be contributing to those woes.

When it Comes to Mattresses, How Old is Too Old?

According to the Better Sleep Council, if you've been sleeping on the same mattress for 7 or more years, it's time to replace it. If you're not sure exactly when you bought it, here are some other clues that the time has come to say goodbye to your current mattress:

  • It's sagging or showing other obvious signs of wear such as stains, tears, or holes
  • Sleeping elsewhere and waking up without your normal lower back pain.
  • You wake up nearly every morning stiff or achy

Finding a New Mattress

Before you shop for a new mattress, it helps to know what's out there in terms of options. For instance, did you know that there are mattresses that can help you stay cool at night?
