Why Should Buy A Two-Sided Mattress?

The best way to explain the benefits of a double-sided mattress is to discuss material breakdown and body impressions. Every mattress has a life expectancy, as all mattresses are going to break down at some point – whether it’s a Verlo mattress or another manufacturer’s. It’s simply the nature of an upholstered product. How quickly a mattress breaks down depends on a wide range of factors.

No mattress is going to keep the same shape it had one year or even six months after being delivered. Body impressions are very normal. In fact, they’re good! They show that the mattress is conforming to your unique shape, which is essentially what a mattress is supposed to do.

With a double-sided mattress, you can flip it over and have another flat side that has no body impressions. Flipping it allows the first side to work itself out for a while, and helps the materials to settle evenly. For example, if a larger person normally sleeps on the left side and a lighter person sleeps on the right, flipping and rotating the mattress puts those two people on opposite sides of the mattress, which helps it to wear more evenly.

The main “pro” of a double-sided mattress is that the second side extends its longevity. In fact, Verlo gives you two additional years on our non-prorated guarantee because we know a two-sided mattress is going to last longer.

The “cons” are that a double-sided mattress needs to be flipped in order to benefit from the additional side, and unfortunately, two-sided mattresses are usually heavier than single-sided ones because there are more components. Flipping your mattress can be difficult if you live alone and have no one to help you. Also, two-sided mattresses are more expensive than one-sided mattresses because you are paying for more materials. You are also limited in your selection of mattress type, as double-sided mattresses are only available in traditional innerspring style mattresses.
