Selecting the right bed essentials

27 August 2020

The best way to start every day is with a great night's sleep and the best way to achieve that starts with your bed. Transform the most basic bed to a cosy haven you will never want to leave. Start at the bottom and build your way up - it's that easy - you just need to consider these simple essentials!

The Base

Determine if you need a new mattress or bed base. A coat of paint can jazz up an old bed frame to refresh the look of your room, while you may squeeze a few more years from an older uncomfortable mattress by adding an 'eggshell' layer or mattress topper.

The Mattress Topper

Consider the level of comfort you need. A wool mattress topper offers breathability and temperature regulation year round. At MiniJumbuk, we offer the superbly luxurious Sleep Therapy mattress topper for maximum comfort alongside the Sleep Restful mattress topper, ideal for those who love the benefits of sleeping with wool but prefer a firmer sleep surface. A Sleep Cool mattress protector will help to keep your mattress in tip top condition and, for those that overheat can be helpful to create a buffer between you and your mattress.

The Quilt

Are you a hot or cold sleeper? Is your house warmer or cooler? Do you sleep with a partner? These are all factors that will affect the level of warmth that you require from a quilt. MiniJumbuk has a range of five quilts, making it easy for you to select one that will suit your needs perfectly. Summer quilts are ideal for hot sleepers and warmer climates. Colder sleepers can burrow down, snug and warm under a quilt from our winter range. We even have a year round quilt for those who can't decide!

The Pillow

Choosing a pillow that matches your sleeping position helps prevent neck and back pain, assisting deeper, uninterrupted sleep. Ideally, your pillow will maintain correct spinal alignment as you sleep. Decide whether you need a firmer natural latex pillow or prefer the wool option and then select the profile suited to your sleep style. High profile pillows are recommended for side sleepers and larger frames, while smaller frames or tummy sleepers should consider a lower profile option.

The Extras

Now that your bed is perfect for sleep, personalise it with your own distinctive flair. Cushions, throw rugs, sheets and quilt covers - add textures, colour and a favourite teddy for your own slice of heaven.
