William and Joshua chose the panda bear as their mascot because pandas understand sleep is important. And, I’m sure, because pandas are cute and cuddly.

Did you know that if you get 6 hours of sleep a night, you spend ONE QUARTER of your life asleep? Crazy, right?!?

A comfortable mattress is integral to getting restorative sleep. How can you rest for multiple hours if you’re battling lumps and bumps?

How old is your mattress? It’s okay, you can keep that answer to yourself. But if you realized your mattress is 10+ years old, you should probably go see the good folks at E.S.C. Mattress Center for their Black Friday sale that runs November 14th through December 7th.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for your new mattress:

Is your back covered?

Mattresses typically have a break-in period of up to 60 days. In light of this, E.S.C. has a 365 Day Comfort Guarantee which means: If you're unsatisfied with your purchase you can swap it out for something else for up to one year.

Don’t overthink it!

When you find a mattress, in your price range, and it is better than your old bed, buy it. Why keep sleeping on your old, battered mattress for longer than you need to?

Avoid the hype.

The terms “top-rated” and “customer favorite” only apply when it doesn’t involve your sleep. All bodies are different and require different things for comfort. Mattresses are not one-size-fits-all.

A mattress should be a commitment.

Most people keep their mattresses 10+ years so when you are deciding on a budget, think long-term.

Dress comfortably.

You don’t sleep in your work outfit, why try on mattresses in it? You could even take it to another level: wear your jammies and bunny slippers.

TRY ALL THE THINGS!

Even if the mattress is a material or composition that you don’t tend to favor, try it. You might be surprised at what your body prefers, especially as you get older and become accustomed to a battered mattress.

ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS!

Your E.S.C. mattress peeps know their stuff, so help them help you by asking questions. Indicate which features you like or dislike in all of the mattresses you try. This rapport will help you pick out your ideal mattress.

Don’t be scared of a soft mattress!

Firmer beds don’t mean better support. The support comes from underneath those fluffy top padding layers. So go ahead, lay on that pillow top you’ve always wanted to try.

Take. Your. Time.

Trying all the things and asking all the questions should take a few hours. Don’t mattress shop on the way to an appointment or other engagement.

Price guarantee.

E.S.C. has a 90 Day Price Guarantee: if you find the mattress at a lower price, or if E.S.C. offers the same mattress at a lower price, they’ll match the price for 90 days after purchase.

Be prepared to wait.

Unfortunately, the mattress industry is still recovering from supply chain issues. The wait could be up to 8 weeks if it’s not in stock.

Not only are the folks at E.S.C. Mattress Center knowledgeable about new mattresses, but they’re fighting to make change. Did you know it is not illegal to sell a used mattress without disclosure and that some stores actually do this? Gross, right? E.S.C. is working to pass legislation that would make this an illegal practice.

In closing, if you're like me and don't know the difference between an Alaskan King and a California King you can trust the experts at E.S.C. Mattress Center to get you an answer.
