Raise Mattress

Bed risers are the most common way to raise a mattress.

They provide a 2- to 12-inch height increase for your bed.

Additionally, people use several options to raise their mattress, including:

• Bed wedges
• Mattress Toppers
• Mattress Foundations
• Adjustable bed frames.
• DIY bed risers
• Stacking full mattresses.

Unfortunately, none of these options is worth your time and effort.

Fixes are temporary and can lead to complications.

Your best option is to get a sturdy, well-built mattress that offers exceptional support (Saatva Classic is our favorite example).

Here are 6 options you can use to make your bed higher:

• Bed Risers: This is the most common way to make your bed taller. Your bed will be higher and you'll have more storage space as well. Attach the risers to the bed frame's feet. The height of your bed will increase by 2 to 12 inches.
• Bed Wedge: Two people may be required to raise a bed wedge's height. Set your bed posts on the wedges and your mattress on the frame.
• Mattress Topper: This is an additional layer that goes over your mattress to increase its height.
• Adjustable Bed Frame: It allows you to adjust the height of the bed to your convenience.
• Mattress Foundation: It allows you to make your bed higher. In addition, they prevent sagging and increase mattress life.

Follow these 4 steps if you want to make bed risers on your own:

1. Gather the necessary materials. You will need portland cement, play sand, a pitcher, vaseline, and water.
2. Stir the ingredients together in a bucket.
3. Pour the mixture into the pitcher.
4. Place the concrete under your bed once it solidifies.

Note: Not worth the effort. It takes a lot of time and doesn't help you fix a bad mattress.

Yes. The mattress can be placed on the floor if you find that comfortable.

The lack of a shock absorber, however, will reduce mattress longevity.

In addition, sleeping on the floor can be difficult for people with joint pain.

Don't do that. Use a mattress topper instead.

Stacking full mattresses can result in body pain due to foam sinking.

Any fix is temporary and can lead to complications.

There's no point in keeping a mattress that doesn't fit you. Your best option is to replace your mattress.

Saatva Classic is our top pick for a sturdy mattress that is extremely comfortable and built to last.
