It doesn't matter why you are purchasing a new bed or mattress, at the end of the day all everyone really wants is a good sleep and the pursuit of good sleep is a big consideration for some many of us.
With this in mind I was interested to read recently that a study has shown that sharing a bed is better for your health that sleeping in a single bed. The reasons for this seem to be broad and despite the fact that so many of us suffer with partners who snore, have regular nightmares and move about in the night causing much disturbance.

Bed warmth
We all have a temperature we are most comfortable at. Many of us sleep outside the bed during the summer months in order to cool down, so choosing not only a bed frame, but also a quilt and sheets that help reduce the warmth is also important. As small double beds become more popular this is an even bigger problem as the heat from 2 people will trap more easily in the smaller space.
Bed materials
You might also want to think about the type of bed you are using. Some materials for the frame will be warmer than others and (although this is down to personal preference) you might find some designs less comfortable than others.
Mattresses
Probably the most important thing to think about is the mattress, especially when it comes to comfort and temperature. Whether you want something firm or soft, it is often a good idea to 'try before you buy' with many consumers checking mattresses in stores before making a decision and purchasing their choice online.
