How to choose a mattress
abstract

On average, we spend one-third of our lives in bed. Therefore, it is very important to consider more when choosing a bed.

To choose a mattress that suits you best, do some homework first, and then you will know what is the right mattress.

Methods/steps

1. advantages and disadvantages of mattress from product identification

Authentic mattresses, whether brown, spring or cotton, are marked with product name, registered trademark, name and address of manufacturing company or factory, contact number or fax, and some also provide qualification certificates and credit cards. Most mattresses sold in the market without factory name, address and registered trademark are inferior and low-priced counterfeit and shoddy products.

2, judging the quality of the mattress from the fabric workmanship.

In addition to cotton pads, brown mattresses and spring mattresses have beautiful mattress fabrics. The quilting tightness of high-quality fabrics is consistent, and there are no obvious folds, floating lines and jumpers; The four corners of the seam are symmetrical, without burrs, and the floss is straight. When the mattress is pressed by hand, there is no friction sound inside, and it feels crisp and comfortable. Inferior mattress fabrics are often quilted with inconsistent tightness, floating lines and jumpers, uneven seams and corners, and uneven dental floss.

3. See the authenticity of mountain palm mattress from the filler.

With the concept of green consumption and healthy consumption deeply rooted in people's hearts, brown mattresses are recognized as natural green mattresses and are favored by consumers. However, due to the scarcity of natural mountain palm raw materials and the high cost of making mattresses, counterfeiters often sell coconut palm mats, hemp mats, cardboard mats or plastic foam mats as natural mountain palm mattresses.

The mountain palm mattress is made of palm leaf sheaths which grow on the high mountain about 2000 meters above sea level in the southwest of China. No water absorption, strong water resistance and corrosion resistance, excellent elasticity and toughness, dry and breathable, warm in winter and cool in summer, which can prevent human body from generating static electricity. The price of natural mountain palm mattress is generally 1500 yuan ~ 1800 yuan.

Coconut palm mattress is made of coconut skin fibers of coconut trees growing on the coast or river bank of tropical areas in southern China, and its elasticity, toughness and air permeability are slightly worse than that of mountain palm. Although it is a natural green mattress, due to the low manufacturing cost, the price is generally from 500 yuan to 1000 yuan.

The hemp palm mattress in the industry is made of green hemp and jute as the main raw materials. Its elasticity, toughness and air permeability are poor, and it is easy to get wet. Long-term use is easy to be moth-eaten and deformed, and the price is generally around 300 yuan.

Some lawless elements take advantage of the consumers' ignorance of the natural wild palm mattresses, selling hemp palm mattresses and coconut palm mattress as such, or even cutting molded cardboard or foam plastic sheets to the size of mattresses, putting on fabrics and pretending to be natural palm mattresses, thus deceiving consumers.

4. Look at the advantages and disadvantages of spring soft mattress from the internal material.

The number of springs used in the spring mattress and the diameter of steel wire determine the softness, hardness and moderation of the spring mattress. Press the surface of the spring mattress by hand. If the spring rings, it means there is a quality problem with the spring.

From the inner material of the mattress, we can see whether the spring is rusted, whether the old sacks or moldy flocculent fiber padding made of scraps from knitting factories and clothing factories are used, and whether the plastic rope is used to locate the padding. If it is found that the spring is rusted and the lining material is shabby sacks or flocculent fiber products made of industrial leftovers, then the spring soft mattress is definitely inferior.

5. Pay attention to "black heart cotton" when purchasing cotton mattresses.

"Black-hearted cotton" is another name for inferior wadding cotton. The "black heart cotton" mattress is made of waste fiber products such as fibrous industrial leftovers, medical fibrous waste, regenerated fibrous substances, and waste clothes. One of the following characteristics of mattress filler is "black heart cotton" mattress: the content of impurities or short fibers below 16 mm exceeds the national mandatory standard; Containing unwashed animal hair or fluff; Containing bleached fibers or other substances; Does not meet the relevant health requirements in the national standards; Contaminated with toxic and harmful substances or moldy.

Matters needing attention

1, supported

A good mattress can support all points of the whole body and keep the spine level when sleeping on your side. Pay special attention to the heaviest parts of the body, such as shoulders, hips and lower back.

2, latex quality

The quality of latex is different. High-quality latex is neither soft nor hard, and can naturally fit the body, giving unparalleled support and extreme comfort.

3. Spring cushion

The structure of the spring, the filler, the quality of the car cushion cover, the thickness of the steel wire, the number of spring coils, the height of a single spring coil and the connection mode of the spring coil will all affect the quality of the spring mattress. Generally speaking, the more spring turns, the harder the support. Pocket springs can also minimize the possibility of one party's actions being transmitted to the other.

4. Advanced technology

Cutting-edge technology is usually applied to the development of high-tech luxury mattresses. For example, Deng Lupu gel shock absorption technology specially used for surgical critical patients in many hospitals can provide fundamental basis for relieving pressure, correcting spine and supporting back. Durable? The technology was originally developed for NASA to adapt to space and extremely high altitude, which can continuously adapt to and balance temperature changes and ensure more comfortable sleep. Silpure antibacterial agent developed by Thomson Research Association applies the antibacterial properties of silver to textile fabrics, which makes the mattress cleaner and fresher, does not produce unpleasant smell, and ensures healthier sleep.
