If it is common to speak of mattresses, it should nevertheless be known that bedding includes all the elements relating to sleeping, therefore the box spring, the mattress, the mattress topper, the pillows, the duvet and the sheets.
Reminder: why is quality bedding important to sleep well?
The consequences of dilapidated bedding on health are not negligible. Indeed, over the years, the mattress, but also the cushions and the textiles of the bedding deteriorate: the presence ofmites and their droppings resulting in allergies, deformed mattress, heavy dust … New bedding will obviously have positive consequences on health: sleep more recuperative and restful, better body support, sleep cycles more qualitative … The subject is therefore not to be taken lightly!
How do you select the main elements of your high-end bedding?
Choosing the right bedding begins with a study of models, materials, dimensions, etc. of each element and the taking of information. It is an approach that it is advisable to carry out seriously, a bedding that can be kept for several years. A high-end mattress can be made foam, latex, in bamboo, to be in shape memory or not. The important thing is that it is adapted to the desired criteria such as support and firmness.
The choice of box spring must be made according to the mattress and vice versa. Thus, a slatted base will be compatible with a mattress in mousse or in latex, a box spring is only designed for a spring mattress and a relaxation box spring generally accommodates foam and latex mattresses.
What is the average price of high-end bedding?
When we talk about the price of a bedding, it varies according to the type of mattress. The price of a high-end product measuring 160 x 200 cm will oscillate between 1,000 and 1,800 €, but can easily reach double if it is very high-end. A latex product will generally have a higher price tag than foam or innerspring mattresses. Some of them are labeled and certified, others are treated against bacteria and dust mites. In fact, the price of the mattress will evolve according to its characteristics and will be more important than a so-called “standard” mattress.
Other factors can increase the price of a high-end mattress: handles to be able to turn it over, ventilation bands to fight against heat and humidity … Similarly, a product made in France will have a higher cost price than a mattress produced abroad and this will automatically be reflected in its selling price.
