If your mattress is 7 years old or even older, or if you’ve been sleeping on a second-hand one, it’s definitely time to replace your mattress.

Whatever the age of your mattress, ask yourself the following questions. If you answer yes to one or more of them, we recommend that you replace your old mattress with a mattress more suited to your needs. You spend a great deal of time in bed, so you owe it to yourself to be comfortable and to get the best sleep possible.

Are your allergies worse at night when you’re in bed?
Do you often wake up with back and neck pain?
Is your mattress making weird noises when you move?
Are you often restless because you struggle to get comfortable in bed?
Is part of your mattress sagging?
Do you disturb your partner when you’re changing sleep positions?
