These days there are many options for you to choose from. Although you may come out better in the end if you stick with a major brand. Don't be sold on cheap mattresses that retailers claim are "just as good" as the major brands. Nine times out of ten, you'll probably end up disappointed in the long run. Buying a mattress is a huge investment. And you hope that the mattress you purchase will hold up for years to come. Who wants to have to buy a mattress every couple of years? If you can afford it, go for the brand names. Some of these brand names include: Sealy Posturepedic, Serta, Temperpedic, iComfort, and Simmons Beautyrest.

And when selecting what brand of mattress to buy, remember these important words - you get what you pay for.
