Do Expensive Mattresses Really Make a Difference?

Hey everyone,
I have been thinking about upgrading my mattress but the price range is wild β€” from $300 to over $3000.

Is it really worth spending big on a mattress? Or are the budget ones just as good with the right topper?

Would love to hear your experience.

I think it depends. Some questions to ask yourself:

  1. What kind of materials am I looking for (or doesn’t it matter)?

  2. How long do I want the mattress to last?

  3. Do I need customization of any kind (by side or by zone).

  4. How much support do you need?

Those types of things are factors influencing the price of a mattress. Someone who needs support, wants natural materials, and is looking to keep the mattress for 15-20 years would need to pay more.

There are videos online where people cut into a mattress that has been used for a year or two and it shows the degradation of materials - some materials are just more long-lasting and durable than others.

Personally, I have found it to make a big difference and having a comfortable mattress that supports me well is worth the price.
