Is a more expensive mattress really worth the money?

How Long Will My New Mattress Last?

Mattress sets vary greatly in how long they will last. What usually causes a mattress set to wear out is that the layers of comfort materials lose their resiliency or their ability to provide you comfort. You'll notice the mattress doesn't feel as comfortable as it did when it was new. Back pain is a sure sign that your mattress should be replaced.

The better the quality, and more quantity, of comfort materials used in a mattress determines how good the mattress feels, and also how long it will retain its original feel. The chart below lists the mattress sets we have for sale; queen set sale price; and the estimated cost per year to own. The interesting thing is that the least expensive mattress set does not have the lowest annual cost.
