A recent decision of the Consumer Trader and Tenancy Tribunal in New South Wales considered a claim by a landlord for the replacement of the bed allegedly damaged by the tenant during the tenancy.

The landlord claimed for the cost of the replacement of the mattress and base. The Tribunal found that the bed had been purchased 9 years before the end of the tenancy in question, and accordingly awarded the landlord 6/15 of the cost of replacement.

9 + 6 = 15. Therefore a bed has a life expectancy of 15 years.

Question is does increased use of bed effect life expectancy?

Also, I am disappoint at no dodgy link to put my bank details in.

Could be like exercise, more is better?

And yes, i have PM'd my Credit Card details to hopefully get a start on a new bed!
