1) What is your preferred sleeping position? and What level of firmness do you prefer?
Your favourite sleeping position can and should influence your mattress selection. Sleeping on a mattress that does not provide adequate support for your preferred posture might cause pain and disrupt your sleep.
Suggested read: Which is the best sleeping position?
Soft Mattress:
Soft mattresses are recommended for those who sleep on their sides Because sleeping on your side puts pressure on your shoulders and hips, you’ll want to find a softer mattress that will cushion your body and reduce pressure in these areas. Many side sleepers find that memory foam or pillow-top mattresses provide the perfect combination of comfort and support.
Firm Mattress:
If sleeping on a mattress that does not provide adequate support for your preferred posture might cause pain and disrupt your sleep. A firmer mattress or a hybrid mattress with springs and foam may help those who sleep on their backs, sleep better. Firm mattresses are unlikely to give adequate support to keep your spine upright while you sleep if you sleep predominantly on your back.
A Medium-Firm Mattress:
Combination sleepers, that change positions throughout the night, will want to make sure you can get comfortable on your mattress in any position if you flip over regularly. A medium-firm mattress might be the ideal combination of comfort and support.
2) How much do you weigh?
The degree of support you require from your mattress is also influenced by your body type. Everybody’s physiology is different, which might increase the strain on your spine while you try to sleep.
Sleepers who weigh less than 130 pounds will generally find a medium-firm mattress to be firmer than those who weigh more.
To get proper support, individuals who weigh more than 230 pounds or so will need a firmer bed. Hybrid mattresses, which blend the support of innerspring with the softness of foam, can last for years.
3) Do you wake up with back or neck pains?
If you wake up with lower back or neck pain on a daily basis, your mattress may very well have lost its ability to support your body and keep your spine. Continuing to sleep on a mattress that does not provide adequate support will almost always exacerbate your suffering.
People with chronic back pain have historically been advised to sleep on very firm mattresses, however newer research suggests that medium-firm mattresses may be the most effective at lowering pain and increasing overall quality of sleep.
4) What mattress size do you require?
If you are thinking about buying a new mattress, it may be a good idea to give your room a makeover at the same time! Maybe you have recently moved into a larger house and have a room that can accommodate more than the old queen-sized bed you’ve had for a decade now. It might be that you have moved to a new city for a new job, and your apartment is now smaller than before, and it would make more sense to downsize your bed. If you are seeking a mattress, then the size of the mattress is an essential factor to take into consideration for whatever reason you may have.
Take measurements of your room, decide whether you want to keep your bed where it is or move it somewhere else, and decide what size bed and mattress the space can accommodate.
Don’t worry though, at Centuary we offer a Single , Double. Queen, King even Custom size mattress.
5) What type of mattress do you have in mind?
Various types of mattresses are available at various price points in the mattress market.

Spring Mattress:

Memory Foam Mattress:
