Mattresses need to be replaced when you are uncomfortable. The life of a good quality mattress ranges from 5-15 years. Beyond this time the springs start to lose the ability to support the sleeper. It makes sense that as children grow up, they generally need a new mattress, a 4 year old on an entry level mattress can not provide the support for a 16 year old on the same mattress. Mattresses and dust go hand in hand, after many years your mattress, regardless of how clean you are gets full of dust and dust mites.
If you want to extend the life of a new mattress, upholstered furniture or new carpeting, and to keep unhealthy allergens out of your house we advise a good vacuuming, (yes, even vacuum your mattress when you replace the sheets) and to keep the windows of your house open for a few hours a day, especially in the winter where the cold will kill the dust mites.
