Mattress Types

Continuous expansion of mattress design has caused an influx of new and improved mattress types. In the earlier stages of development, mattresses came only as traditional inner spring mattresses. Waterbeds and pillowtop mattresses were the only options in the early 1900’s. Now, consumers have many more possibilities to choose from. Explore the many mattress types to find which one will meet your needs best. Whether you are looking for a single comfort mattress or something that offers adjustable comfort, you can find it. Options now include memory foam mattresses, hybrid mattresses, air bed mattresses and latex mattresses. Each of these mattress types bring with it special traits designed to help everyone sleep better.
