Why Jordan's: Buying Tips

The right sleep surface makes a huge difference in the quality of your sleep. We want you to find the right mattress for you or your family's sleep needs. Here are tips for finding the perfect mattress match:

Adult Premium
Children's Mattresses
Guest Room or 2nd Home


Adult Premium
- Think about what you like and dislike about your current sleep system. Also consider any back pain or medical concerns you have. This will help us narrow down your options.

- Keep in mind that most of your backs support comes from the core support feature found below the padding and is not based solely upon the surface feel of the mattress.

- Side sleepers often mistakenly choose a harder bed for a bad back. A cushion firm or plush is a much better option.

- Each increase in price offers increased comfort life retention.

- Pay close attention to the thickness of today's premium sleep surfaces. They tend to range from 12" - 20" thick compared to older mattresses that were only 7" - 10" thick. Lower profile foundations are available. Be sure to measure your existing sleep set before visiting the Sleep Lab.

Children's Mattresses
Whether it's buying that first big girl/boy bed or a mattress for a growing adolescent, making the proper selection is critical. Kids will spend most of their growth time on their sleep surface and proper spinal alignment is important.

- Determine how long you'll use the mattress. Is it a short-term solution to get through the next few years or a long-term solution to limit additional purchases?

- Know what comfort level is right for your growing child, today and in the future. Body weight plays a big role in comfort. A premium product provides firm support with options of hard, medium, or soft comfort levels.

- Play close attention to the thickness of the mattress and/or entire sleep set. Today's mattresses are much thicker than they used to be. Most consumers think sleep sets look fine in the store but when they bring them home these commons problems occur:
    - Sheets do not fit properly
    - Aesthetics with headboard/bed
    - Safety issues with toddlers and or bunkbed use.

Guest Room or Second Home
Whether it's for a pleasant overnight or the dreaded houseguest that never leaves, sleep sets for secondary use are still important. Occasional use bedding must be of good quality to provide support and comfort for you and your guests.
- Know your price. It can be difficult to justify a higher expense for an item used infrequently.

- Occasional-use bedding often becomes primary bedding for a child, relative, friend or even you.

- Support and comfort life usually increase with price. The more you invest should prolong your comfort life.

- Any increase in price results in an overall longer comfort life.

- Explore premium adult bedding for your primary sleep surface and offer your other set for the spare use.
