Revitalize Your Mornings - Signs It's Time for a New Mattress!
Hi Neighbours,
Feeling sluggish in the mornings or noticing increased discomfort in your back?
It might not just be your alarm clock—it could be time to assess if your mattress is still providing the support you need.
Let's explore the signs that suggest it's time for a new mattress, ensuring your nights are as restorative as they should be.
Health Check: Are You Waking Up Sore?
It’s not normal to wake up feeling like you’ve run a marathon (unless you actually have!). If your mattress is getting older, you might notice more back pain or general discomfort.
Investing in a new mattress can significantly improve your sleep quality and overall health.
Remember, your mattress should be your sanctuary, not a source of discomfort.
If you find yourself tossing and turning, trying to find a comfortable spot, it's a clear sign your body is asking for something new.
Spot the Signs: Physical Indicators Your Mattress Needs Replacing
Take a close look at your mattress:
Does it sag in the middle where you sleep?
Can you feel springs or bumps that weren't there before?
These are signs that your mattress is wearing out.
Over time, mattresses lose their shape and the materials inside break down, failing to provide adequate support.
Don’t compromise on comfort; a new mattress can revitalize your sleep experience. Isn’t that a wonderful reason to consider an upgrade?
How Long Has It Been? Understanding Mattress Lifespan
Every mattress has an expiration date, although it’s not printed on the tag.
Depending on the type—memory foam, innerspring, or others—they generally last 7 to 10 years.
Factors like mattress quality and maintenance affect lifespan.
Think about how long you've had your current mattress.
Is it nearing a decade?
If so, it might be time to start looking for a replacement.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
