What makes a mattress more expensive?

Several elements can drive up the cost of a new mattress. One significant factor, which we won’t go into depth about here, is retail markup. When comparing mattresses within the same store, two primary factors influence price:

1. Quality of Components: Higher coil quality and denser foam generally lead to a more expensive mattress.
2. Number of Components: Adding layers like memory foam or latex—and increasing the thickness of those layers—further raises the overall cost.

It’s important to note that while more advanced materials and additional layers can increase a mattress’s price, it doesn’t necessarily mean it will be a better fit for your specific needs. To learn more, visit our blog: What Makes a Mattress More Expensive.
