How often should you change your bed?

Experts agree that you should look a changing your mattress at least every 6-8 years, possibly 10 for a firm or well cared for mattress.

One of the biggest factors in getting a good night’s sleep is the comfort of your mattress and sleep, or lack of, can have a significant impact on your physical and mental health.

As a general rule replace your bed or mattress if:

1. It is more than 8 years old
2. It has become saggy or misshapen
3. It makes more noise than usual
4. You can feel the springs and they are uncomfortable
5. You notice an increase in allergies or asthma
6. You get a better night’s sleep in a hotel room, at a friends or even on the sofa!
