Buying a mattress isn't just an upgrade for your home—it's a real investment in your sleep, your health, and your daily comfort. With so many options available, it's easy to get lost. But by focusing on your personal needs (size, materials, comfort), you can find a mattress that's truly right for you. Here's how to choose the right model and sleep better.
1. Choose the Right Mattress Size
Size isn't just a number—it affects your freedom of movement, the harmony of your bedroom, and the quality of your sleep. Before buying a mattress, measure your space and consider your lifestyle:
- Single (90 × 190 cm): Ideal for children, teenagers or single adults with limited space.
- Double (140 × 190 cm): More spacious without cluttering a small bedroom. Perfect for solo sleepers who like to spread out.
- Queen (160 × 200 cm): The most popular size, a nice balance for couples and standard rooms.
- King (180 × 200 cm): Absolute luxury for couples or families with children or pets.
- Custom or European sizes: Perfect for designer frames or unusual configurations.
Remember to leave at least 60 cm of free space around the mattress for good circulation and easy cleaning.
2. Lateral Support and Motion Isolation
If you share a bed, two criteria become essential:
- Movement isolation: so as not to be disturbed by your partner's movements.
- Edge support: to allow you to sleep or sit near the edge without feeling sagging.
These elements significantly increase the quality of sleep and the durability of the mattress.
3. Choose the Best Materials for Comfort and Temperature
Materials influence both feel, breathability and support:
- Memory foam: perfectly conforms to the shape of the body, relieving pressure points.
- Natural latex: bouncy, breathable, durable, and responsibly sourced—an ideal choice for eco-conscious sleepers.
- Hybrid: Combination of foam and pocket springs for a balance between support, comfort and ventilation.
Morphea mattresses incorporate OEKO-TEX® certified foams and natural latex, for healthy and environmentally friendly sleep.
4. Prioritize Sustainability and Ethics
A good mattress should last over time. Look for:
- Quality materials
- A robust design
- A guarantee of at least 10 years
- Ethically sourced components
