Our line of sleep solution products is an impressive collection of mattresses, pillows, topper pads, and foundations. Our Cradlesoft™ memory foam has received the highest possible score for best compression, meaning that this foam will perform better and be less likely to sag over an extended period of time. All of our memory foam products are made and manufactured here in North America, and the mattresses meet all federal 1633 FR standards.

All memory foams are not created equal. They can differ greatly in areas of quality, density, hardness and softness, response to temperature, durability and longevity. Just because someone puts a name in front of the tail term “pedic”, does not mean your mattress will meet your expectations. Memory Foam is a unique product in its ability to relieve pressure and provide you with great night’s rest, but keep in mind it is not the only piece of the puzzle. A mattress made entirely of Memory Foam would be too soft. The optimum solution calls for 2-4 inches of Memory Foam on top of 5-10 inches of a firm supportive material such as a High-Density Foam.

As customers continue to search for an improved level of comfort from their mattresses, new technology and innovative ideas are necessary. In 2008, Jeffco Fibres, Inc., the manufacturer of our memory foam products, introduced a new and improved Channel Ventilation System. This unique system cuts channels from one side of the mattress to the other, promoting “true” ventilation, which will help keep the mattress cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. It also allows a more forgiving support for shoulders, hips, and knees, while maintaining a solid base for the pillow area and feet.

Jeffco Fibres, Inc. continues to be an industry leader in using technology for its customers' advantage. We are now able to compress pack nearly all of our sleep products, allowing us to ship economically via UPS anywhere in the country. In today’s economy of expensive freight charges, this is an essential element in bringing savings to our customers.

Jeffco Fibres, Inc., the manufacturer of our latex products, continues to be a leader in providing a state of the art latex assortment. We are proud to present the new “Eco Green” Collection of premium latex mattresses. All of our latex models are eco-friendly. Our natural latex mattresses instantly conform to body shape to provide a consistent relaxed feel from top to bottom. Latex mattresses are often recommended by orthopedic specialists and chiropractors because of the unequaled support they provide. Once you have slept on one of our natural latex mattresses, you may never want to sleep on anything else.

Traditionally, mattresses should be replaced every 7 to 10 years. The newer mattresses with 20 year warranties last much longer. The life of a mattress can be impacted by many factors, including the height and weight of the sleeper(s) and whether or not it is supported by a proper frame and foundation, and even the climate that you live in. If the mattress is abused by standing or jumping on it, or if a double-sided innerspring mattress is not turned as recommended by the manufacturer, you may need to replace the mattress sooner. Ultimately, if you wake up feeling stiff and sore and you can’t identify any other causes; you might want to think about replacing your mattress. Your lifestyle and your body may undergo rapid changes, and that may mean that your mattress should change, too. As a rule, if your mattress sags or is worn and lumpy, you should think about replacing it.

The queen size mattresses are the most popular at the moment; but if you have room for a king size, you will be more comfortable with the additional sleeping area.

A good-quality mattress is an investment that gives you tremendous return. When you are well rested, your mind functions better, your memory is sharper, and you can be sure you won't fall asleep on the job, in class, or while driving. For less than the dollar you spend each day on your cup of coffee (or $4.00 at Starbucks), you can get a quality mattress that will last you for years to come, and provide you with the sleep you need to be at your best. Invest in the best quality mattress that you can afford. Less expensive mattresses may seem like a bargain, but they may not provide the comfort, support and durability necessary for a great night’s sleep.

In order to find the perfect bed for your needs, there are several questions you will need to consider. First, what size bed do you need? If the bed is for a child or a dormitory room, a twin size might be fine. If the bed is normally used by two people, the smallest size to consider is a full size. Queen size and king size beds provide considerably more room and comfort for the sleepers; however, you must also consider the size of the room.

Will you need a mattress and box spring set, or a mattress only to be used on a platform bed or your own good quality foundation? The next consideration is how you want the bed to feel as far as comfort is concerned. All of the beds that we carry at FindMyMattress.com will give you great support. What will vary is the amount of cushioning or surface comfort. Do you want the bed to be firm, with very little cushioning, or do you want it to be very plush, like sleeping on several comforters?

Once you can answer these questions and have some idea of how much you want to invest in your mattress, you are ready to order online or call FindMyMattress.com at 1 877 FMM 5995 to find the perfect bed for you!

Lifestyle factors - age, physical activity, smoking, and illness – are all important. However, your mattress is the most important factor in determining the quality of your sleep. Your mattress should support you and be comfortable enough to allow you to sleep in one position all night, without the tossing and turning that is caused by pressure points. Restless sleep or waking up with aches in your arms, legs and back is a sure sign that your mattress is not helping you get the rest you need.

Creating conditions in your bedroom that are conducive to sleep is also very important.

As a rule, a king or a queen-size mattress provides the most room and the best comfort.

You might want to consider a mattress that minimizes sleep disturbances when either of you move during the night. Some mattresses are constructed to minimize the impact of partners moving. The memory foam and latex mattresses that we carry are designed minimize the impact of one partner’s movement on the quality of the other partner’s sleep.

A spacious mattress will help you sleep better - and you'll both be more rested in the morning.

For babies, a crib with a firm, tight-fitting mattress is crucial to the infant's health and safety. Make sure the crib has adequate support for the mattress, so that the bedding can't be easily dislodged. This is a very important consideration, since babies spend almost three-quarters of their time asleep and toddlers spend half their time sleeping.

As your children grow older, they will be ready to graduate to a bigger bed. The rules of comfort and support apply here. Children need 8-10 hours of sleep per night (although as we all know, they try to get away with less.) A mattress that allows them to sleep comfortably without tossing and turning will give them the restful sleep they need to grow up healthy.

It’s better to buy a new mattress for a child, rather than passing on your old mattress when you buy a new one. If a mattress is no longer comfortable for you, chances are it will not be comfortable for your child.

Most mattresses made in the last few years are one-sided, as opposed to the heavy, two-sided models of the past that required both turning and rotating. Most one-sided mattresses should be rotated head-to-toe once every two months. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation.

If you have a two-sided mattress, rotating it minimizes the impressions your body leaves and makes your mattress more resilient and resistant to wear and tear because you are using all the sleeping surfaces. Two-sided mattresses should be "flipped" once every two weeks for the first three months and once every two months thereafter. The first time, turn it over so the top surface is now resting on the foundation. The next time, just spin the mattress from head to toe, leaving the same surface in contact with the foundation. Alternate these two procedures every two months and you can expect a long life from your mattress.

We'll let you in on a little trade secret; mattress manufacturers make basically the same models for all the retailers. They give each one a different name and a different cover so that each one can have an exclusive. The mattress you saw may very well be one that we carry under a different name. Speak with one of our professional Sleep Health Specialists to determine if our mattress is the same as the one you saw. Just call us toll-free at 1 877 FMM 5995!

We look forward to helping you find the perfect bed for a great night’s sleep!
