Puffy Foundation

Yes, a foundation is necessary for a mattress. Without a foundation, the mattress will prematurely sag and won’t support you properly. A poorly-supported mattress will also trap heat and quickly collect dust, bacteria, and dirt from the floor.

A mattress foundation is a solid structure that the mattress rests on. It provides proper support for the mattress and sleeper. Additionally, it can extend the lifespan of a mattress because it lifts it off the ground and promotes even airflow.

There are many types of mattress foundations. The best types are bed slats and solid foundations. Bed slats are wooden or metal beams placed across the bed frame, but they must be placed closely together to adequately support the mattress. A solid foundation is a sturdy frame with slats, a support beam, or a bunkie board covered with a breathable fabric to permit airflow.

Thanks to the open-cell structure of hybrid mattresses, they are compatible with many foundations. These include bed slats, solid foundations, platform bases, and adjustable bases. The Puffy Foundation features a steel crisscrossed design that is perfect for hybrid or memory foam mattresses.

The cost of a mattress foundation will depend on the size of your mattress and the features of the foundation. For example, a solid foundation can cost from $100 to $300 while an adjustable bed base with advanced features can cost from $700 to $2000.

Choosing the right foundation will depend on the type of mattress and the mattress size. A memory foam mattress will need a foundation that promotes better airflow, like the Puffy Foundation. Solid structures like bunkie boards may block air circulation to the mattress. Hybrid mattresses are more advanced and have an open-cell structure so they can be used with any bed frame.

Yes, a mattress needs a foundation to support it and make sure it doesn’t sag, create lumps, or collect bacteria and dirt. A mattress is a big investment in your health, so it is important to properly take care of it to extend the mattress’s lifespan.

A mattress foundation could last up to 10 years or more, depending on the quality of the materials used. For example, the Puffy Foundation is made of heavy-duty steel - the strong engineering endures heavy weight and is built to last for years.

If you place a mattress on the floor, it’ll easily slide out of place, collect dust, bacteria, and dirt, and prevent air circulation through the mattress. It is recommended to use a foundation with your mattress to ensure it stays in good condition and offers proper support.
