Do mattress suppliers recommend that the foundations be replaced when purchasing new mattresses?
A. Yes! A good foundation is as important as a good mattress. It helps to stabilize the mattress and can help by taking a lot of the nightly wear and tear. And it contributes to comfort and support. Don’t put a new mattress on an old foundation. An old foundation will cause the new mattress to wear unevenly and much more quickly. When selecting a mattress, purchase its companion foundation. The two are designed to work best together. Sealy engineers invented “foundation support” in the 1970s, and it sets the standard for today’s mattress suppliers.
