And if he chooses his mattresses wisely, he is certainly going to sleep sounder than a poor man. Here’s a guide to selecting the right mattress that will ensure a sound and soft sleep.
Cost is not always a factor while buying a mattress. Materials are. A $350 mattress may be more comfortable than one costing $1000. Expensive pocket spring mattresses with springs responding independently of one another which may result in uneven pressure on the bed leading to body aches.
