Even if the basic bedroom lighting is sufficiently bright, it may be advisable to install supplementary wardrobe lighting and mirror lighting. Annoying and time-consuming searching for socks, ties and co. is a thing of the past by installing spotlights & spots on the ceiling in front of the wardrobes. The lamps should be installed at a distance of about 50-80 centimetres from the wardrobe so that sufficient light falls into drawers and compartments.
Practically all mattresses now have a removable cover that can be washed in the machine. You should make sure that it can be removed easily when you buy it. It makes sense to have split covers, because then each half can be washed separately.
But be careful: The fact that a cover is washable does not mean that it can be washed as often as you like. Depending on the quality, a mattress cover can survive perhaps five to ten washes. It is quite possible that it will be damaged in a washing drum that is too small if it is exposed to too much friction during the washing cycle.
Cold foam mattresses consist of foam. In the past, this was considered hard as a board and uncomfortable. However, modern mattresses are characterized by a high point elasticity and adapt well to the body. Although the material wicks away moisture, it retains heat better than the spring core versions. That pleases frozen types. Pay attention to the so-called volume weight when buying. It indicates the density of the foam used. The higher it is, the higher the quality of the mattress. Experts say that the density should be at least 40 kilograms per cubic meter.
Without a pillow a bed is not a bed - at least for most people it is as much a part of the bedding as the air we breathe. Apart from the “comfort factor”, the most important requirement of a pillow is that it optimally supports the neck area during sleep. There is a large selection of pillows made of different materials with different fillings in various variations available on the market. For the layperson, it is often too large to reliably find the pillow that allows the most comfortable and ergonomically optimal lying position.
Probably the best known is still the classic feather pillow, which provides the right feather pleasure during a pillow fight. However, the very puffable pillows in the size 80×80 cm with a filling of feathers and down are no longer the non-plus-ultra among pillows and ergonomically not really recommended.
- Um to also relieve the lower spinal column section in a lateral position, there are elongated cushions that provide support for the entire body. For an optimal lying position, side sleepers clamp the pillow between their knees and place their head on the upper end of the pillow.
The purpose of a pillow is to fill the space between the mattress and the head/neck in such a way that the cervical spine does not bend and the head is neither tilted up nor down when lying down. Depending on the sleeping position, both the shape of the cavity to be filled between the mattress and the head/neck area and the height of the required support vary. A pillow should therefore be selected so that it supports you perfectly in the sleeping position in which you lie most of the time.
Especially in densely populated areas, the environmental impact of dust is high, even indoors. House dust mites or fine dust are among the pollutants that make many people ill. With a special air purifier against dust you can protect yourself from these environmental burdens. But which devices are best suited for this?
“Hello, I need a new pillow, a white one!” With this information, you don't even need to come to salespeople. Better tell them what position you sleep in at night, the firmness of your mattress and whether or not you feel tension in the morning with your current pillow. Salespeople can do much more with this - and give you individual and better advice!
When buying a pillow, brains are required! Because here it is not a question of taking what you like - no, here it is: Take what suits me! Those who do not observe this simple rule quickly pay for their ignorance with morning tensions, back and neck pain.
For some years now, mattresses with viscose foam have also been available. The so-called memory effect ensures that the mattress adapts to the body rather ideally. The reason: the material not only reacts to pressure and weight, but also to body temperature. Viscose foam is less suitable for people who sweat a lot or move around a lot while sleeping.
Side-sleepers must make sure that the shoulder remains stable on the mattress and that the head does not bend down. A narrow pillow size of 40 x 60 or 40 x 80 centimetres, which fits well into the cavity between the shoulder and head, is best suited.
Side sleepers: The distance between the mattress and the head area is greatest in the side position. In order for the shoulder to sink into the mattress, the pillow must not reach under the shoulder, but only support the head and neck. The recommended pillow size is therefore a supporting pillow of 40×80 cm or 40×60 cm. Depending on the contours of your body (wide or narrow shoulders), the height required may vary - in this case you should try lying on the pillow and have a second person check whether the spine forms a straight line and its shoulder axis is at right angles to the mattress. If your neck area is considerably narrower in relation to the width of your head, you will lie most comfortably on an ergonomically shaped neck support pillow, otherwise soap-shaped pillows are also recommended. Back sleepers: If you are lying on your back most of the time, you should make sure that you do not choose your pillow too high. A relatively flat pillow is usually sufficient to keep your head horizontal - it should never be tilted upwards. In this sleeping position, the pillow's main task is to provide correct support for the lordosis in the cervical spine area, so it is best to lie on a flat neck support pillow, which supports the cervical spine by means of an ergonomic elevation in the lower pillow area and does not reach under the shoulder area. If you have a pronounced hunchback, you may need a slightly higher pillow to lie comfortably. Abdominal sleepers: In the not recommended prone position, no pillow is actually needed, since raising the head area inevitably leads to overstretching the neck and bending the spine in the direction of the hollow back. Also, the neck vertebrae are strongly twisted when using a pillow. If you cannot sleep at all without a pillow, you should only use a very flat pillow, in which you should not sink in if possible - only in this way is it possible to breathe without having to turn your head even more. Some manufacturers offer specially shaped pillows for this purpose, which have a hollow in the nose and mouth area.
