Good Mattress = True Love

2010-11-17T19:20:00.003-05:00

My girlfriend and I just moved in together. We were really tired of the mattresses we had while we were students in college and in our first apartments. Lumpy, too soft, too hard, too small, too short, sinking, sloping – there was always some sort of problem. Part of the reason we decided to move in together, besides our undying love, was the possibility of buying a brand new mattress, one that fit our exact space specifications and on which we could sleep without disturbance or discomfort.We began searching for mattress discounters New York for platform beds on sale. I mean, just because we’re moving in together, doesn’t mean we can spend an arm and a leg on a mattress. Part of the reason my darling love of my life loves me anyway is because of my thriftiness.Anyway, we finally found www.NYMattress.com and decided on a king size bed. They had platform beds on sale which were just what we were looking for and now we sleep like babies. Small, red-cheeked, drooling babies as we hold each other in our arms, breathing in each other’s heat. That’s what being in love is all about right? I’m so grateful for mattress discounters New York. Now our love has a place to rest comfortably.

Futons or Sofa Beds?

2010-05-17T09:00:00.007-04:00

I’m finally moving into a bigger place and am pretty excited to get some new furniture. Oh, and I should clarify. By bigger, I mean I’m moving from a studio into a one bedroom. But hey, that is a huge step forward in my book. Now I can sleep, cook, and watch TV in separate rooms. Oh, the luxury!

Well being that space is still limited, and so is my budget, I went online to my favorite mattress discounters New York, NYmattress.com and browsed their selection. The platform beds on sale were a great start for bedroom furniture. I loved the idea of being able to store stuff under the bed. But for the living room I was torn between futons and sofa beds. To me they were essentially the same thing, with futons being a little cheaper. I always have friends visiting the city, so it was essential that I had a fold-out bed.

I decided to go with a sofa bed. I couldn’t resist NY Mattress’ sleek, stylish designs and since I was moving up in the world to my 1 bedroom, I would splurge a little. I really made the right choice! No one can even tell that my sofa bed folds out, and when it’s in normal couch position it looks so neat and refined.

The Origin of Memory Foam

2010-05-10T09:00:00.000-04:00

There is no more exciting story in the world of mattresses than the story of memory foam.

In the early 1970’s the NASA’s Ames Research Center was given a grant to research and develop a substance that could alleviate the impact of powerful G-forces on astronauts when taking off to space. They researchers firmly believed (mattress pun!) that the key to reducing the impact of these gravitational forces was to use foam that conformed to the astronauts shape. Originally, they tossed the idea of a foam mold that was custom fit to the astronauts sitting positions, but threw the idea out when they realized that if the astronauts shifted from this position, they mold would prove ineffective.

Instead, they created memory foam. Originally, it was made from visco-elastic polyurethane. The visco-elastic properties made it dense and able to mold to the users body when heated.
Sadly, it was never adopted by the NASA space program. Instead it was used in the medical field for bed-ridden patients. Eventually, it made its way into mattress discounters New York, and into bedrooms everywhere.

Furniture Ideas for Studio Apartments

2010-05-03T09:00:00.000-04:00

Studio apartments aren’t exactly known for their roominess. Often times, singles opt to live in studios to save on rent but get flustered with the amount of space they’re confined to. This can be especially problematic if the occupant is used to living in a more spacious environment. Sure a studio can make even the most laid-back individual feel claustrophobic, but with the right décor solutions you can make it work.

The obvious solution to comfortable studio living is to live minimally. Get rid of a lot of excess furniture like end tables, lamps, and book shelves. Anything that will make the room feel cluttered isn’t welcome. Your room should really be centered around the bed. After all, it’s the most important place in the room! A sofa bed or futon from your local mattress discounters New York could be a great solution if you’re concerned about being able to have guests over comfortably.

Another great solution for studio living is to buying platform beds on sale. Platform beds provide optimal storage, and have great slimmed down, modern designs. You can often set up the platform bed behind a curtain or Chinese screen to give the illusion of room separation.

Choose Your Sheets Wisely

2010-04-26T09:00:00.000-04:00

After shopping for platform beds on sale and looking at all the mattress discounters New York, it’s time to think about your bed sheets.

There are many different options here, so let’s start with the most basic. Most people like cotton, because it breathes easily and is soft, on your skin, and your wallet. There are different types of cotton, and the best are Egyptian and Pima, because they are the longest cotton fibers on the market. This means that they are stronger than other 100% cotton sheets.

The yarn size dictates the fineness of the cotton. The higher, the finer. Higher thread counts use finer yarn because more can be fit into a square inch. But high thread count does not necessarily mean good sheets. This is especially the case with a lot of mass produced sheets because the quality of the fabric for example, is compensated to produce a product with a high thread count. After 300, there is not much difference. Don’t fall into the high thread count trap.

You can also choose satin, silk or flannel sheets, but while the former are great, they’re expensive, and while the latter are comfy, during the summer they can be too warm. If you want nice sheets to cover one of the platform beds on sale that you decide on, go with simple cotton sheets.

The World’s Most Expensive Beds

2010-04-19T09:00:00.001-04:00

At the millionaire fair in 2007, there appeared a revolutionary way to sleep. Forget box springs and futons, this mattress works on magnets.

The Presidential Luxury bed is $48,000 dollars, but boy is it worth it. It sleeps four adults comfortably, rotates, reclines, and moves all about.

The Mattress Spread

2010-04-12T09:00:00.008-04:00

In the mattress world, there are many different options available for the sleepy. To begin with, there are different sizes:

Twin: the standard single bed, perfect for kids or the mattress frugal.

Full: Bigger, this size mattress allows for considerably more roll room during the night.

Queen: This bed can sleep two people comfortably, or one person like a queen.

King: This, traditionally the largest bed on the market, is ideal for couples or large men who like to toss and turn when they sleep.

California King: The largest of all beds, unless you move into the custom mattress world, this bad boy allows large people to sleep comfortably, or smaller people to float out to sea.

And different kinds:

Memory Foam: These beds are form fitting, which can reduce tossing and turning and allow you to sleep more comfortably.

Futons: Are ideal for day/night conversion from sofa into bed. Futons don’t necessarily sacrifice comfort for convenience; they are large and spreadable.

Platform beds on sale: don’t require a box spring and are a viable option for the cash conscious. Platform beds on sale are also great if you want to be able to store things underneath your bed.

That about runs the gamut for mattress discounters New York. Now you should have a better idea of what you’re looking for.

Sleep in Luxury with Down or Synthetic Down Bedding

2010-03-22T09:00:00.002-04:00

Looking for a Modern Bedroom Set? Visit Your Favorite Mattress Discounters New York

2010-03-08T09:00:00.000-05:00

Something everyone has to do eventually is update their bedroom set.

If your set is anything like my old one, it can’t even really be called a set. My old set was more like a Frankenstein creation of pieces I acquired from family members, garage sales, and second-hand stores. They served me well over the years, but I really wanted to dress up my bedroom and thought there was no better way to do that then to get rid of my mismatched hodge-podge furniture and get one cohesive, modern-looking bedroom set.

I knew that many mattress discounters New York had the style bedroom set I was looking for, but the prices were a little more than I was looking to pay. Luckily, I remembered that my roommate got a great new bed from NY Mattress and couldn’t stop talking about all their platform beds on sale. I went online and found my dream set, the MOD Bedroom Set by Coaster.

The set features a platform bed, a six-drawer dresser, a chest, a nightstand, and a mirror that goes perfectly above the dresser.

All in all, this sleek, modern design really dressed up my bedroom and best of all, it allowed me to part ways with my old mismatched hand-me-downs.

Tall Guy? Get a Platform Bed

2010-03-01T09:00:00.001-05:00

Being that I’m 6’8’’, it’s hard for me to find furniture that I’m really comfortable with. Couches and chairs are always a little too low to the ground for my stature, but I can deal with that. It’s the bed that’s my main concern.

Beds are important. It’s the last place you go for the day and the place you start your day every morning. So it’s crucial that you have a bed that’s working for you and allows you to easily get a comfortable sleep while you’re in it. It should be equally as easy to get out of it.

Since I'm so tall, I have to crouch down to get into bed and then struggle to get up every morning. I have two bad knees with an achy back, and all that crouching and crawling is really hard on them. I had to make a decision to either start getting out of bed with a cane or find some furniture that was a little more kind to my tall frame.

I started to look at mattress discounters New York for platform beds on sale and kept turning up short. It was really hard for me to find tall furniture in my price range.

Luckily, I found NYMattress.com and found that they had an amazing inventory of platform beds on sale. So I ended up getting exactly what I wanted for an unbeatable price.
If you’re looking for platform beds on sale, NYMattress.com should be your first stop.

Platform Beds On Sale On A Student’s Budget

2010-02-22T09:28:00.000-05:00

I’m a recent college graduate. After spending four years in the dorm on those terrible dorm beds, aching and rolling, feeling the indentation from hundreds of people’s bodies before mine on my flimsy mattress, I decided it’s time to treat myself. I wanted a nice big, brand new mattress. So I googled mattress discounters New York and found that NY Mattress has some really nice platform beds on sale.

For those of you who don’t know (I didn’t) a platform bed is a traditional bed that sits without a box spring – it’s just a mattress, which is great because as a student, I don’t have any money, and after saving some extra bucks on a box spring, my beer fund is looking pretty healthy.

So I went to NYmattress.com and bought a platform bed, for a very reasonable price, and now I’m sleeping like a baby. I can roll around and not have my limbs dangle off the sides of the bed, I don’t wake up sore, no more neck and back pains, and I actually look like I’ve slept well when I wake up the next morning. For platform beds on sale, check out nymattress.com. I’m sure you’ll be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

Did You Find Your Platform Beds On Sale? Need A Comforter To Match Your Room?

2010-02-15T10:54:00.001-05:00

If you just bought platform beds on sale, you're probably pretty excited, I know whenever I buy something new for my house I am absolutely ecstatic!

Let’s say that you just bought a platform bed on sale from mattress discounters New York. Well, you probably need a comforter for the bed and while some people might not care about decorating, I know I do and I know I've learned quite a few things over the years.

For example, if your bedroom has wallpaper on the wall and it's a busy pattern, you don't want to choose a comforter theme that has a busy pattern on it as well - this just makes everything look erratic! Instead, you would want to pick a base color out of the wallpaper and buy a comforter to match it. So for instance, if you have a flower pattern on your wall of green, yellow, white and pink, and the pink seems to show the most in the wallpaper, you could probably go ahead and get a pink comforter set for the bed.

Or perhaps any of the other colors as well even though they don't show up as much as the other colors. The same goes with a solid wall color. If you have a wall that is painted white, you have virtually any choice in patterns or solid colors for your comforter.

In fact, if you have a white wall, you can go with just about any theme or color because anything looks good against a white wall. Think of it as a blank canvas and your "paint" are the colors you place in the room. Everything from comforter to pillows to shams to valences! If you haven't bought your platform bed on sale just yet, check out some of the options we have on our website for Mattress discounters New York!

Shopping Tips for Platform Beds on Sale

2010-02-08T12:11:00.004-05:00

If you're considering a platform bed, think about shopping at a mattress discounters New York featuring a wide selection of options — this way, you'll be able to customize your purchase to match your style perfectly. After all, this is a place where you'll be spending eight hours (hopefully) every night, so you'd better like it.

One thing to keep in mind when shopping for beds is the furniture you already have in your bedroom. You don't need everything to match perfectly, but anything more than two different shades of wood might seem a bit chaotic. Most designers recommend choosing two wood grains/colors and an accent color to use in bedding, light fixtures, carpets, and more.

If you're shopping for platform beds on sale for an unfurnished apartment, however, you have even more freedom. A bed is a great tool to plan your room around, so think about how each wood pattern and bedding scheme might inspire the rest of your furniture and decorations. A lot of young people enjoy starting with a wooden platform bed painted black, for example, since this looks modern and goes with everything.

What is The Difference Between A Memory Foam Bed and a Spring Mattresses?

2010-01-18T07:52:00.001-05:00

So you finally decided to start taking a look at foam mattresses? Well good for you, I think once you realize how well these beds will help you sleep and how much better they are for you, you will begin to understand HOW big a step in the right direction this is! First off, you have to consider the support. In a spring loaded mattress you might think it's comfortable, but really when tested, all it's doing is pushing against your body at all the same levels in all the same places. On the other hand, with a foam bed it’s actually contouring your entire body in various heights and stages.

This ensures that your entire body is getting the support it needs! It's a fact that a spring mattress will lose over 16% of its support within the first year of using it! You also need to consider the quality and cost. While a foam bed will cost more, it will also last longer. Whereas with a spring mattress it might cost less, but it's also going to last for only so long before it starts falling apart. Lastly, you have to consider comfort - and really no test in the world has the right to say what is comfortable for YOU and what isn't.

So if a spring mattress is what you like, fine! But I still would suggest at least trying out a memory foam mattresses because frankly, it’s like sleeping on a cloud! To shop for some of the top name brand foam mattresses and platform beds on sale, visit our Mattress Discounters New York store now!

The platform bed is actually nothing new in the industry. In fact, these beds have been around since 1973 when John Lorenc designed one of these beds and took it to Lee Strazz who then started the craze of these beds. In the most standard sense, these are beds that are low to the floor, whose infrastructure consists of a raised, depressed, hard, crosswise surface meant to sustain just a mattress. A lot of people like these beds because they are very simple yet very elegant, they are also very cost efficient as well especially when you find platform beds on sale!

And since you won't need a box spring, you can start concentrating right away on what kind of a mattresss you want to start looking at. One option that a lot of people like is the foam or memory foam mattress option. This is one of the newer choices when it comes to support mattresses, but it is also one of the better ones. Not only will it support your entire body from your feet on up to your head and neck, but it also helps with the aches and pains that you already have by pushing pressure points on the body which then release endorphins into the body. It's almost like having your own personal masseuse!

These mattresses also are a great option for people with asthmatic symptoms because of allergies because these beds are 100% hypoallergenic!

How Can I Design My Bedroom And Platform Bed To Compliment The Rest Of My House?

2009-12-21T03:54:00.000-05:00

The Hillary Platform Bed

My three favorite rooms in a house are the kitchen (I love cooking), the yard or patio area (we have a giant grill!) and the bedroom. The bedroom is nice because it doesn't necessarily have to be the same style as the rest of the house - while alike colors should be tied in from the rest of the house it doesn't HAVE to be. You can make your bedroom and platform bed as rustic, romantic, chic, French country, artsy, whatever you want! One of my favorite themes is romantic - oak bed, sheer white bed curtain, a really nice color of green accents such as throw pillows or candles.

It's just really clean and fresh looking. Most people have no idea how they want to decorate their bedrooms let alone where to buy specific pieces for their bedrooms. Honestly, if you take a look on our blog and our mattress discounters website, you can find all kinds of platform beds on sale, mattresses made from all kinds of materials such as foam mattresses, inner springs, coil springs, air and water - depending on what you like!

Different kinds of Mattresses amd Foam Mattresses from the leading NY Mattress Factory

2009-12-14T08:10:00.002-05:00

The first thing you wonder about when buying a new mattress is the different types of materials and different kinds of mattresses available. It used to be that you only had ONE choice, and this one choice wasn't one of the best choices in the world. These old mattresses were not as durable and did not keep for as long as one would have liked them to. Nowadays though, you have ALL kinds of options to choose from when it comes to the NY mattress factory.

Some of the options you could be taking a look at for the more common selections include; spring coil or inner spring, memory foam, latex, water, air and futon. Frankly, we have a memory foam bed at our house, and I love it! It conforms to my back, which is awesome because I have a bad back from an old car accident and it keeps my knees from cramping up as well. It doesn't matter what kind or style you choose, just make sure it's a quality made bed from a store like our mattress discounters New York store.

Also, by taking a look at the rest of our site (…and blog) you can start to educate yourself about which beds are recommended for your use, lifestyle and health. A little knowledge goes a long way. At www.NYmattress.com you can really find great info about all the things you need to know about mattresses. We also give you news updates on various products on our site(s) as well such as when you can find platform beds on sale and what mattresses specials we are having that particular month!

How Can I Maintain My NY Mattress Factory Bed?

2009-12-07T08:43:00.000-05:00

Mattresses are actually one of the easiest things to take care of and CAN last you for years to come if you take the next few suggestions in the upkeep of your bed and mattress. Not only will these tips keep your mattress from the NY Mattress Factory around for longer, but it will also keep the mattress in peak performance - better quality means better sleep! First and foremost it's important that you change your sheets on a regular basis. Dust mites and dead skin will be washed away in the laundry.

Secondly, as the old wives' tale goes, it really is required that you flip and rotate your mattress. Usually we suggest that you do this every 6 months. This is also a good time to vacuum the mattress and the box spring as well! If you have any stains on the bed, simply blot the stains to remove as much liquid from the surface as you can. The reason it's important to soak up as much as the liquid as possible, is because this could later turn into mildew or mold - not good!

You can also use hot soapy water to clean up any stains as well. Lastly, you can use fresh dryer sheets under the mattress or even under your sheets to freshen the aroma of the bed. I absolutely LOVE the smell of Downy dryer sheets so this is a definite plus! Also, we suggest that you use a mattress cover or pad for your bed, this adds an extra layer of protection from spills and stains and it could reduce the frequency you have to vacuum the mattress as well.

I literally just learned what a platform bed is!

2009-11-24T11:09:00.002-05:00

My friend has been in the market for a bed lately as she needed a new one. She just recently moved and her bed could not be brought with her because it wouldn't fit around the corner! We have both been looking online for a replacement for her because she has been sleeping on a semi-comfortable air mattress these days, but this isn't exactly the best option for her bad back! We do most of our shopping online these days because it is convenient and we love dodging crowds of the stores. It is great.

Anyway, I was surfing around to see what I could find for her and I ran into NY Mattress and found out that they were having platform beds on sale so I decided to see what they were all about. I saw that you can get metal or wood beds, and since she has metal styled furniture all through the house, she leaped at a metal one. Something else I also noticed, which was great because I like saving some money, was that it doesn't require a box spring beneath the mattress.

So not only are the platform beds on sale, but she gets to save cash on the box spring... Another thing she also needed was a mattress, though, so we both checked out the NY Mattress Factory to find the best option to go with the bed. They had some great memory foam mattresses in stock! She absolutely loves her new bed, it supports her bad back, and it leaves her feeling renewed and refreshed!

SOHO Bed - made in a NY mattress factory for 200 bucks! How can you beat that?

2009-11-18T14:08:00.005-05:00

When my girlfriend and I moved in together, I knew it was time to ditch the old bachelor’s futon and get a new bed. You know, I wanted something more stable, a symbol of our relationship! Na… not really. She wanted a bed that she can actually sleep on… Anyway we searched and searched for a new platform bed and just couldn’t find anything suitable. I didn’t want anything tacky and she didn’t want a cheap build-it-yourself kinda a bed. Tell you the truth, I don’t like the beds that come in a box and you have to start figuring out how to get them together. Plus, the materials usually suck and the bed lasts for a year, maybe two. It was about time I got some real furniture!

So after a while we figured to try online. I mean, we know the measurements and everything and anyway I buy everything on the internet these days, so why not give it a try?

We logged on to www.NYMattress.com and found a wide selection of beds and were able to pin down the bed of our choice – the SOHO bed. I know it's kinda stupid but we live downtown so we liked the name as well...

It was a wonderful choice and checkout was a breeze. Not to mention the crazy price tag! 200 bucks for a full size bed? A real bed made in a NY mattress factory with eco-friendly hardwood! How can anyone beat that?

The Best Place To Buy A Mattress is Right Online!

2009-11-06T14:29:00.005-05:00

When it comes to buying a new bed, you are always going to need a new mattress. I haven't met a store yet that has a bad with an actual mattress. So for example, if you buy platform beds on sale, it doesn't really matter how cheap or how expensive it is - you will still need to visit a NY mattress factory to find a mattress to go with the bed! When it comes to the actual mattress though, you have several different choices ahead of you such as colors, designs, supports and sizes.

As for the colors? No one is ever going to see your mattress so I wouldn't really worry about this. However, when it comes to size and comfort, these are two BIG things you should be thinking about. What size will you need? Full, twin, queen, king? Your bed that you bought will most likely let you know what size you will need, make sure you choose the right one! Too small and it looks funny, too large and it will continually slide off of the mattress box!

The support systems available are usually going to have to do with not only the "feel" of the bed, but the way the springs are positioned as well. Do you like a harder bed? Or softer? Do you prefer a pillow top or one of those posturepedic type of mattresses? They also have NO spring mattresses available now as well! Yup, it's called a memory foam mattress and it doesn't have to cost a fortune neither!

Pillow Top - When things are getting a little hard

2009-10-29T09:46:00.003-04:00

If you are looking for a fantastic way to add extra softness to your mattress you should consider a pillow top mattress. The pillow top adds an extra cushioning layer above the standard firm mattress below. Many manufacturers such as Sealy and Simmoms offer a variety of mattresses with pillow tops. One of the benefits of a pillow top is that it is a completely separate encasement which makes it available as an add on to a mattress as well as an attachment. If you currently have a good mattress and are looking to add some softness and comfort you can consider adding a pillow top to your existing mattress without incurring the large expense of buying a new mattress.

People that have begun using pillow top mattresses have seen a reduction in back pain and leg swelling. Sleep makes up a third of your life and is critical to your health and well being. It is essential that you pay attention to your comfort needs when buying a mattress and pillow. The difference between a comfortable mattress and one that is uncomfortable is critical. People that get a good night sleep are more productive during their awake hours. Your health is not something to play around with so pay attention to the signs your body tells you. If you wake up and feel like you had a terrible night sleep you probably need a new mattress.

Sleep tight. Don't let the Bedbugs bite

2009-10-23T09:54:00.005-04:00

Got bedbugs? Get a dog! Seriously… An interesting article was published this week in the L.A. Times. It's about dogs that are trained to find bedbugs.

Bedbugs are those nasty tiny insects that suck your blood during the night and hide in your room during the day. It’s impossible to find bedbugs alone. These nasty blood-sucking creatures can hide in electrical outlets and in the smallest cracks in the wall.

Big cities are under severe infestation of bedbugs in the recent years and pest control professionals work with the trained dogs in order to locate the bugs during the day or make sure that there are no bedbugs left after a building has been sprayed.

Training a bedbug detecting dog costs about 9000 dollars and the process takes up to 2 months. Well… how about getting a new mattress instead? Bedbugs love to hide in the mattress and buying a new mattress can help your blood stay within your body...

If you decide to get that mattress? Or how about a new platform bed NY? visit us at www.NYMattress.com today!

How to remove cigarette smell from a mattress?

2009-09-09T11:35:00.004-04:00

Mattresses love to hang on to that cigarette smoke and if you’ve been to a smoking hotel room, then you know what we’re talking about.

How to remove cigarette smell from a mattress? Well, first of all, STOP SMOKING IN BED! Afterwards you can grab some baking soda which can actually help remove that strong cigarette odor from a mattress.

The only problem is: you’d have to find somewhere else to sleep tonight, because you have to sprinkle the mattress with the soda and let it do the magic over night. After 12-24 hours, vacuum the mattress.

The easiest way to keep a mattress clean is by not messing it up in the first place. Don’t eat or drink in your beds and keep your pets away from the bedroom. Purchasing a mattress cover also helps in preventing stains and some even help allergies by reducing dust mites.

If you decide you want to buy mattress instead, visit www.NYMatress.com, New York’s premier mattress outlet and get your mattress delivered to your door, fresh and clean.

You shouldn’t go mad over cleaning your bed!

2009-09-02T12:29:00.009-04:00

A clean bed is a happy bed and you know what happens in happy beds... Also, a mattress is a home for dust mites, allergens and it can catch smells and odors pretty easily. And we don’t want smells and odors in our mattress, right? So you want to know how to clean a bed?

Well, you shouldn’t go mad over cleaning your bed. It’s fairly easy!

Give it a flip. Turn it around. Air it up. The most basic thing you can do is flip your mattress every time you change sheets. I turn the mattress to do it and it helps the mattress stay fresh.

Vacuuming mattress can help getting rid of dust, dirt and dust mites. Vacuum both sides of the mattress and do it regularly.

Stains? No pains! The easiest way to fight mattress stains is by using a Citrus Cleaner. Just spray the dirty spot and rub it in. Let it do the work for a couple of minutes and absorb liquid with a clean cloth.

An upholstery shampoo or a mild detergent can also do the trick. Just apply the liquid on the stain, let it work by itself for a few minutes and clean it with a wet cloth or sponge. Leave the mattress to dry before putting on any sheets.

Ever since we bought that new mattress, we just can’t get out of bed!

2009-08-24T08:26:00.002-04:00

There's nothing like buying a new mattress. Most people think that the mattress they bought 20 years ago is still doing a good job - but the truth is that mattresses should be replaced every 7 to 10 years, even if they are comfy. You see, as kids we thought that there are monsters under our mattress, but actually there are bugs and dust mites in our mattress. Mattresses tend to get the shape of your body as well and some ares sink and become week.

Mattress technology changes everyday and mattresses nowadays are much more comfortable and offer better support. Plus, when you buy a mattress you will sleep better and spend extra time in the bedroom...

There are no monsters under the bed. Only storage room

2009-07-27T09:05:00.000-04:00

Living in a New York apartment makes you a master of storage. Yes, we have lots of stuff and sometimes we don’t have room for all our stuff. So you find a place in the kitchen for your underwear and the living room cabinet becomes a great spot for winter blankets.

And then there’s under the bed… You shove everything possible in that tight space under your mattress and when it’s time for cleaning you discover that it turned into dust heaven.

There is a better solution for storage and it’s not in a warehouse in Queens. It’s called the Windsor Platform Bed and it comes with matching Windsor drawers and panel footboard.

The bed is made from environmentally harvested true hardwood so you can sleep like a baby with your tiny foot-print and you can't dent this solid bed with your fingernail like the soft pine used in inexpensive platform beds.

The Windsor Bed is available at www.nymattress.com in natural maple, light cherry finish, white, antique walnut & caramel latte.

Throw away that nasty futon and get yourself a real bed!

2009-07-20T06:06:00.000-04:00

My old futon bed wasn’t good enough for my girlfriend who just moved in with me… What can you do?

So we started looking for a new bad and it wasn’t easy. I don’t like those beds that look like a mattress on a mattress, you know what I’m talking about? We wanted something fun, young, because a bed is not something you should settle for. Then we came across the Soho platform bed:The cool, modern styling of the Soho Platform Bed was perfect for us. It’s a very sleek and solid design, and my girlfriend said that “the angles of the tapered legs help to offset the simplicity by keeping a basic shape and adding contrast” go figure...

We’re both also into being green, so the solid Eco-Friendly hardwoods were also a match. The salesman told us that this platform bed is in compliance with International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO) guidelines and we're happy.

The Soho Platform bed is now featured on www.NYMattress.com, available in all sizes and in Cappucino, Cherry & Beechwood colors. Looks good in our room don't you think?

2009-07-13T08:00:00.000-04:00

This is me before...

Don’t know why, don’t how, but my husband turns around about 376 times a night. Would you believe me if I told you that a few times I found myself on the floor after he kicked me out of the bed during his sleep?

I didn’t really know what to do, I even thought about moving to the couch or getting two beds like in the good old days, but then I came around to this Memory Foam Mattress. It was developed by NASA in the 1970’s - they probably didn’t want any astronauts falling out of beds and into space - so what’s good for the astronauts must be good for my husband.

We’ve got this Dream Cloud Plush Memory Foam Mattress and let me tell you – my husband sleeps like a rock, and I sleep like a baby. The mattress molds around him, cradling his entire body, and he practically stopped turning. I guess… I mean, even if he still does, I don’t feel a thing because unlike our old spring mattress - all the movement stays on his side this time.

This is me after...
