Q: There are many mattress options available online, should I still consider visiting a physical store first before deciding?
An online purchase may sound like a convenient solution to your mattress search, but bear in mind that a mattress is a long-term investment as it can last from eight to 10 years – therefore most people still prefer to shop for it in person. And since we spend a third of our lives in bed, you shouldn’t just settle for the lowest-cost option.
Now the benefits of buying a mattress at the store include: being able to physically test the bed; easy comparison of bed sizes; purchase satisfaction; and sales assistance.
Visiting a physical store will also allow you to find out how established the mattress brand is. This is an essential factor because you want a good brand with a solid track record of producing quality mattresses. King Koil provides customers a wide variety of mattresses at affordable prices.
Since 1967, the American sleep specialist King Koil has been working closely with the International Chiropractors Association (ICA) to create sleep systems that use specialised designs with ICA’s requirements for clinically sound postural support.
We use only the best materials in our mattresses to ensure high-quality, healthy sleep is provided to the consumers.

Q: I share the bed with my partner, who is a light sleeper. What type of mattress can prevent me from disturbing my partner when I wake up in the middle of the night?
King Koil’s 5-zone spring system mattresses are recommended for those who have to share the bed, aside from giving you excellent back support it also minimises disturbance to your partner by absorbing the impact of your tossing and turning.

Q: Is it true that I need to rotate my mattress every month to ensure it remains even?
No, not every type of mattress can be rotated. With current technology, most of the mattresses in the market are non-flip and feature 5-zone technology, so they are not meant to be rotated.

Q: My mattress is almost 10 years old, but I still find it functional. Can I still continue using it?
Generally, a mattress has a lifespan of approximately 10 to 15 years. A mattress made of higher quality material is likely to last longer. However, due to wear and tear, the comfort level of your current mattress reduces over time.
Another factor we have to consider is aging. As we age, our body requires a firmer mattress to provide us better support. Mattress technology is also constantly evolving, and new products come with more value-added features.

Q: I accidentally poured some water onto my mattress and it’s still very damp. What do I do to ensure it dries without leaving stains or a musty smell?
Use a clean towel to pull as much water out of the mattress as possible. Next, use a hairdryer to dry out the mattress. Keep the hairdryer a distance away from the surface, constantly moving it back and forth over the wet area for 10 to 15 minutes till the mattress feels dry.
We strongly recommend our King Koil Fluidproof Protector (available from Shopee and Lazada) to prevent all these messy cleaning procedures. The protector also comes with patented waterproof Miracle Membrane, to block dust mites, allergens, liquids and sweat from permeating the mattress.
“When choosing a mattress, always lie down on the mattress to try it out. You must feel that your body is aligned and balanced. There must be no stress on your spine or other parts of your body. Pairing with the right cervical support neck pillow is important too.”
