Many people know that when choosing to buy a mattress, they do not know whether the mattress should be moderately firm, firm, or soft. Moderate hardness and softness is a very vague concept. Today, Xiaobian, a mattress manufacturer, will show you several methods to choose a suitable mattress. 1. The ratio of soft to hardness is 3:1.

This ratio means that if the mattress is 3 cm thick and collapses by 1 cm when pressed, the mattress is moderately firm. Choose a mattress that is neither too hard to deform nor too soft to collapse completely, so keep this 3:1 mattress firmness ratio in mind. 2. Fit test.

First, take a normal adult as an example. Lie on the mattress with the other person's hands extended toward the neck. Stretch inwards in three places where the waist and hips and thighs are clearly curved to see if there is a gap; then turn over to one side and use the same method to try to see if there is a gap between the hollow part of the body curve and the mattress; if not, then Prove that the mattress is completely consistent with the natural curves of the neck, back, waist, hips, and legs when people sleep.

This type of mattress is often referred to as moderate firmness. 3. Select special groups. Special groups have special requirements for mattresses, such as the elderly and young people, choose mattresses that are as hard and soft as possible, which is good for the bones of the elderly and children, avoid choosing mattresses that are too soft, and soft mattresses for long-term sleep in the elderly People are prone to waist and neck diseases, and children and adolescents will suffer from stunted growth, resulting in symptoms such as hunchback.

In addition, when pregnant women choose a mattress, they should take the weight of the pregnant woman as a reference. Heavy pregnant women choose a hard mattress, otherwise they can choose a hard mattress, but not too soft. After reading these three points, I don't know if it has solved the entanglement when you choose the firmness of the mattress. Although the hardness is selected, other aspects should also be screened from the health, environmental protection, and comfortable sleep of the mattress material.
