Buying Guide

A mattress is one of the largest purchases that you will need to make for your bedroom. It can be difficult to determine the correct mattress for your body, and if you share a bed with your partner, this challenge can become even greater. Cashmere mattresses provide a comfortable and luxurious base for you to sleep on, but before you start spending any money, you should consider the following points.

How to select the right size mattress?

Think about the size that you have already and consider whether this is suitable or not. If you and your partner are struggling to share a queen or double bed together, it may be time to upgrade to a king size or even super king size bed. Similarly, if you have been sleeping in a large bed for a while but you don't enjoy it, you can downsize and save some extra space in the bedroom for other furniture. The size of a mattress is largely down to personal preference. To give you a quick overview, here are the different mattress sizes:

Single: Three feet wide
Double: Five feet wide
King size: Five and a half feet wide
Super king size: Six feet wide

The length of each mattress is roughly the same, with singles, doubles and king size all being around 6'2 and super king size at 6'6.

What are the benefits of cashmere mattresses?

You might be wondering why you should invest in a cashmere filled mattress rather than another type of material. While there are many other materials to consider, cashmere is a good choice for those who want a lightweight and natural material. It is insulating and warm, keeping you away from the cold during the winter nights, but since it is so fine, it doesn't get too hot during the warmer season either.

How firm should a mattress be?

Firm doesn't necessarily mean that the mattress is good for your body and your back. Too often, people choose a firm mattress because they think it will help them, regardless of whether or not they find it comfortable. Choose something which you find comfortable, and if this means spending half an hour lying down in a showroom, then go for it and take your time. Just to give you an idea, people weighing between 130 and 230 pounds on average do best with a medium-firm mattress that falls in the 4-6 range on the standard firmness scale.

One of the reasons people don't like shopping for a new mattress is because it can be so difficult to find the exact firmness for your body. If you are sharing a bed with somebody, the shopping trip for a new mattress can become a long and tedious one. Finding something that you agree on isn't going to be easy, but cashmere is suitable for most people, and comes with varying degrees of firmness.

How to care for cashmere mattresses?

You should look after your mattress by regularly changing your bedding and using a mattress protector to look after the material as well as you can.
While washing your mattress is difficult, you can turn it over to help maintain its shape and durability.
Mattresses are made to last 8-10 years, so it's important that you think about buying a new one after this cycle.
