To brand name or not to brand name when it comes to mattresses?

Sealy, Serta, Stearns and Foster are very powerful brands. Do they offer the best quality mattresses? Is it better to buy a brand name mattress? Are you choosing based on fear of making the wrong decision?

You associate these brands with quality mattresses but do they really offer a quality products that last? Do any of your friends say “i just love my Sealy mattress”.. none of mine do …. but Tempur-Pedic owners preach Tempur like a religion.

The mattress industry is one of the few industries that still offer products few know anything about. Spring quality, IDL, mmHg, fabrics, fire retardants, durabiliuty etc, so big brands still have a stronghold on the bedding industry because the consumers are not empowered by knowledge. Serta or Keetsa……well Serta of course right?

Making a decision based on fear is still very real when choosing a mattress. Take your time, do some research and read the reviews. You’ll be sleeping on it every night for the next 10 years.
