First thing I want you to ask yourself is what kind of product do you need. Do you really must have a $3,000 bed? How much difference is there between that bed and the mattress under $500? Think about it for a few moments. You won't find a good reason for that difference in price. Unless the bed is made out of gold springs, which I highly doubt.
I suggest you stay away from "special" beds that have 8,9 or even 15 different layers. These layers are just the way of companies to install more money in their product so you would have to pay for it. You get one layer for firmness so your back will feel good, but you get another layer to make it a little bit more softer so your circulation won't be endangered. There are all just fluff stories.
You can pick a good quality bed for $500 without problems. The first thing you can do is to try it out. I am sure you remember what kind of bedding you have at your home. This is how you can test new beds so you can figure out would it be good for you. Also, there is always an option to turn it back if you don't feel comfortable sleeping on it for first few days.
To get a cheap bed, you need to watch out for few things. Do not be a sucker for box springs. This is another money pit for the customer and manufacturers know it. Do you know that in other parts of the world, Europe, Asia, South America etc people do not use box springs at all? They place their mattreses on solid surface, most often it's wood. There are no springs and special bed frames. Even on metal beds and trundle beds there are no springs that will help the mattress. Because there is no need for that.
So, when you are getting a new bed, do not buy a new box spring. Even better, find a different solution if your old spring is ruined.
When it comes to cheap mattresses, you should always look out for sales and discounts. A lot of retail stores have them, especially furniture specialty stores. Discount mattress can be cut down to 30% of original price. Do not look for new, just arrived from factory beds. They will rip you off and you will have to replace them at the same time as your neighbor will. Except he bought his for $200. Aim for discount beds and YOU be the main man when you talk to the salesman.
Another great option is to go to Sleepy's and Macy's. They have awesome prices, especially Sleepy's because it offers more bed brands then Macy's. You can get good Miralux prices, Kingsdown and Englander beds too. Simmons, Sealy and Serta make good beds, but you have to know they will cost you more just because they spend so much money on advertisement. So bear that in mind. Just read some mattress reviews online and you will see what kind of money people pay for them just to have them replaced with other product in short time.
I forgot to mention one thing when it comes to Sleepy's. They will match any price, so you can find a retail store with discount and then call them at their number to get a lower price. They do that all the time, it's their way of beating competition. Go to their site and check out what they offer. You also have Sleepy's number there.
The fine thing about Internet is that you can check furniture stores online and see are there any sales and discount. We all know that there isn't anything better then mattress wholesale. When you find one, you will get a bit closer to heaven. But, store tend to avoid them. And you know why? Because the salesman is working for a commission. Why would he show you a $450 bed when he will get more money if he sells you a $2,000 bed? It's simple, right? This is why the beds that are on discount are at the back of the store. If you don't ask, you won't even know they are there. And the same thing is with online stores. A lots of times these websites put the page about discount mattress and cheap bed sale somewhere at the back. But you need to dig a bit and find that hidden piece of gold.
There are many types of beds that are completely the same at the core. Manufacturers only make up new names or add a layer or two so they can raise the price. Be careful about this and compare those expensive beds with some cheap beds that look the same. You will notice the difference. Also, read as much as you can on this topic because that way you will find out more and more about this industry. One more review is just another good tip for your shopping. This will help you save some money and enjoy your sleep a whole lot better.
