Benefits of Purchasing as a Set There is great value in purchasing a set vs buying individual pieces. Whether it is a couch and love seat, or a mattress and a box spring - there are many reasons to get the matching pair. When talking about a mattress and box spring we constantly get asked just for the mattress without the box spring. A common misunderstanding is that the box spring will last forever and does not need to be replaced. Not only does the box spring wear with time, the mattress is made for a specific box spring and the warranty depends on it. How Your Warranty Works The validation of your warranty depends on the mattress sitting atop the matching box spring. The manufacturer creates these two pieces together for a reason. The main reason being that the box spring is made to support the mattress that was made for it. To validate your warranty you should have the mattress on top of the matching box spring. When purchasing a sofa set, it will always come with a limited manufacturer warranty. Much like buying insurance for a car, you do have the option to purchase an extended warranty on your new investment. Extended warranty on a sofa set could cover you for up to 5 years for any rips, stains, cuts, rips or tears. To protect you for five years on your new investment, a small price is required – but is very much worth it. Conclusion Purchasing as a set keeps your living room or mattress set matching and looking fresh. It allows you to match accordingly and have the best looking place since Austin Powers. Matching mattress sets will also validate your warranty and keep you protected for years to come.
