Studies show that on average, human beings spend an average of 26 years of their lives asleep - that’s approximately a third of a lifetime. This means that you’ll likely want to make sure that your bedroom is a haven of peace and enjoyment, so that you can wake up feeling rejuvenated, or take time to relax in your own personal sanctuary. Your choice of bedframe and mattresses can make all the difference to your sleep routine and lifestyle, so it makes sense to want to make the best choice for your home and wellbeing.
However you like to rest after a long day, we also know that beds and mattresses can make or break your good night's sleep. Firm or soft, pocket-sprung or gel, there's a mattress out there for every type of sleeper, and we've got a few to offer, too. For today's blog, we've put together a little guide on how to know which beds and mattresses could be right for you, before you take the leap and buy.

As one of - if not the biggest - pieces of furniture in your bedroom, your bedframe can be the make-or-break decision for the visual of your space. Deep button-tufting or vertical lined detailing can benefit your room just as much as the photo frames that adorn your walls. You may want to consider your space requirements; could you benefit from the hidden storage of an end-opening ottoman bedframe, or is simplicity and elevation more your style? Whether you favour modernity or tradition, we have a plethora of stunning bedframes available here at NCF Living, from standard to end-opening ottoman bedframes, standalone headboards and more.

Your mattress may go unnoticed to visitors, but for you, it makes the world of difference. Whilst everyone has their preference of soft to firm, pocket-sprung to memory-foam, each of your options may have a positive - or not so positive - impact on your sleep quality. We often recommend testing the firmness of a mattress in-store before purchasing, as this allows you to make an informed decision of which mattress you’ll pick for the coming years when faced with many options. Visit us in-store to speak with staff who have a wealth of knowledge about the craftmanship of our many high-comfort mattresses, so you can feel supported as you take the leap.
