Mattress FAQ
Shopping for a mattress can feel overwhelming with all the options, sizes, and sleep technologies available today. Whether you're wondering about lifespan, sizing, or what type works best for your sleep style, having the right information helps you make a confident choice for better rest.How long do mattresses last?
Quality mattresses generally last 8-10 years before showing signs of wear like sagging, loss of support, or comfort degradation. Premium materials like high-density memory foam and individually wrapped coils tend to maintain their firm support properties longer than budget alternatives. Ashley designs their mattresses with durable materials and construction techniques that help ensure years of comfortable sleep.When do mattresses go on sale?
Mattresses typically go on sale during major holiday weekends like Memorial Day, Labor Day, Presidents Day, and Black Friday when retailers offer their biggest discounts. Many stores also have sales in January and February as people replace mattresses after the holidays and prepare for spring cleaning. Ashley runs seasonal promotions throughout the year and offers financing options to make quality mattresses more affordable. You can check our deals page for current promotions and special offers.What are the best mattresses?
The best mattresses offer the right balance of comfort, support, and durability for your individual needs and budget rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Consider factors like firmness level, materials (memory foam, latex, or springs), and special features that address your specific sleep concerns. Ashley carries mattresses from leading manufacturers with various technologies and comfort levels to suit different preferences.Where do you get rid of mattresses?
Contact your local waste management company to schedule bulk pickup service, as most municipalities offer special collection for large items like mattresses. Many areas also have mattress recycling centers that break down materials like springs, foam, and fabric for reuse instead of landfill disposal. Ashley offers mattress removal services when you purchase a new one, handling disposal responsibly during delivery.Where to buy mattresses?
Ashley carries mattresses in multiple comfort levels from firm to plush with various technologies like cooling gel, motion isolation, and pressure relief features to help you find the best mattress for your needs. Shopping online gives you access to their full mattress inventory with filtering options by size, price, firmness, and material type to find exactly what you need. Or visit your local Ashley store today.Why are mattresses so expensive?
The high cost of mattresses reflects the premium materials and complex manufacturing required to create products that last 7-10 years of nightly use. Features like cooling gel, motion isolation, and pressure relief require advanced engineering and quality control that increase production expenses. Ashley provides transparent pricing and value by offering mattresses with clear specifications about materials and construction quality.Do mattresses need box springs?
Not all mattresses need box springs. Memory foam mattresses and hybrid mattresses typically perform better without box springs since they need solid, consistent support rather than the give that box springs provide. Platform beds or solid foundations work best for these mattress types and often come with better warranties. Ashley provides foundation options specifically designed for different mattress types with proper support specifications.What are the different sizes of mattresses?
Mattress sizes include twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, and split California king, with measurements that accommodate everything from toddler beds to spacious master bedrooms. Queen size is the most popular choice for couples, while twin and full sizes work well for children, teens, and guest rooms. Ashley offers comprehensive size options with mattresses designed to fit standard bed frames and room layouts.What are the dimensions of mattresses?
Mattress dimensions vary by size: twin (38x75"), full (54x75"), queen (60x80"), king (76x80"), and California king (72x84") to fit different bedroom layouts. These measurements are industry standard, so you can expect consistency when shopping for mattresses and bed frames that coordinate properly. Ashley manufactures mattresses to these precise dimensions with quality construction and various comfort levels for every size.Looking for additional mattress accessories?
