How to Choose a Mattress
At some point in your life, you'll probably be faced with the task of buying a new mattress. You may be single and setting up your first apartment, newly-married and starting a new chapter in life, or maybe your current mattress is just old and tired. Whatever your situation, you'll want to make sure you select the right mattress.
Why you shouldn't buy the first mattress you come across?
A good mattress is an investment in your long-term health so it is worthwhile putting in the time and effort it takes to find one that suits you. Buying an inferior quality mattress may offer some immediate savings in terms of price, but you could very well be paying for it over time with chronic back conditions, restlessness and fatigue.
What to look for in a mattress
1. Support
One of the most important features you should look for when choosing a mattress is the amount of support it provides. It should be enough to support your body evenly in whatever sleeping position you find yourself in most often. This means choosing a mattress that keeps your spine, neck and head in alignment as this will result in the most restful nights sleep.
The quality of support provided by the mattress will make a huge difference in how you feel when you wake up in the morning. Will you drag yourself out of bed feeling as if you haven't slept or bounce out of bed ready to face the world?

Somma air bed mattresses have earned the seal of approval for meeting the posture and pressure standards of the American Sleep Research Institute. All Somma Aire Sytems provide a combination of:
- Innercoil lumbar support
- Perfect perimeter foam rails
- Ultraluxe and Visco elastic memory foam
This combination provides the ultimate in overall body support and a restful night's sleep.
Each Somma mattress is fitted with a foam divider between the two air chambers, which allows each side of the bed to be adjusted to a different level of support. So you and your partner can adjust the firmness of the mattress to suit your own individual needs.
2. Comfort
Comfort is an important factor when choosing a mattress. This differs to the amount of support provided as a mattress can provide excellent support but be extremely uncomfortable.
So whether you prefer a very firm mattress or a softer option, be sure to choose a mattress that is comfortable for your body type and sleeping style.
The fabric that covers the mattress, known as ticking, should be soft enough to enure a comfortable night's sleep and the mattress shouldn't sag or bulge or create uncomfortable pressure points.

Initially, air mattresses were developed for hospital patients in order to reduce the discomfort levels they experienced due to extended periods in bed. Coil spring mattresses can create uncomfortable pressure points and an unrestful nights sleep. With this in mind you can well appreciate the benefits of air mattresses and the comfort levels that can be experienced.
The Somma Aire Sleep System comes with a dual hand control which allows you to select the degree of firmness to suit your individual needs, and in turn provide you with the comfort that you require.
The patented lumbar support system provides you with gentle support whilst distributing pressure evenly across the body to ensure optimal spine alignment is achieved. The Somma Aire lumbar support system ensures that their air mattress will never sag or bulge unlike other air mattress products available on the market.
And the ticking on Somma mattresses is wonderfully soft providing an even extra level of comfort. You will wonder why you didn't change to a Somma Aire Sleep System sooner.
3. Size
Another consideration when choosing a mattress is size. Almost everyone is familiar with the different basic widths in which mattresses are available, such as king, queen, double and single. If you sleep alone, then the width is pretty much up to you, based on what you're comfortable with and what fits best in your bedroom. However, if you have a partner, then you should probably opt for queen size or wider just to make sure you both have plenty of room. While you're deciding on width, don't forget about the length. Mattress lengths vary quite a bit, and you certainly won't be comfortable with your feet hanging off the end of the bed.

4. Quality
A good-quality mattress should last from at least 10 to 20 years. Spending a little extra time when you choose a mattress will ensure years of restful nights and pain-free mornings.
