Side Sleepers

If you’re a side sleeper, your body weight may not be as evenly distributed as other positions, leading to pain at pressure points such as the hips, shoulders and knees. Side sleepers will prefer a mattress that contours to the body and relieves joint pressure and pain. Fortunately for side sleepers, this is one of the most popular sleeping positions out there - so there are lots of mattresses designed just for you. Read mattress reviews for some of our favorite mattresses for side sleepers.

Back Sleepers

Back sleeping is often recommended by experts as the best position for a body at rest. If you’re a back sleeper, a soft, sink-on-in mattress will put your body in an arch position, and won’t provide you with enough support. But a mattress that tilts too far in the other direction can feel like a concrete slab to a back sleeper—this puts too much pressure on your back and shoulders, so you wake up with aches in the a.m. The best mattresses for back sleepers are medium-firm mattresses that offers a little “give,” with just enough contouring ability to support your body. Take a look at our mattress reviews for back sleepers.

Stomach Sleepers

Stomach sleeping is the rarest sleep position out there, accounting for just 7% of the adult population. Without the right mattress, this sleeping position can be really tough on your body. It puts a ton of pressure on your spine and chest, which may lead to back and neck pain, difficulty breathing, tingling nerves, pressure point pain and general achiness. To avoid pain at the pressure points and difficulty breathing, you’ll want to find a mattress that’s slightly soft on the top, but firm enough to provide spinal alignment. For this reason, a medium-firm mattress is usually the best mattress for a stomach sleeper. Take a look at our mattress reviews for beds that stomach sleepers may find most comfortable.

Hot Sleepers

According to experts, each one of us produces about 26 gallons of sweat in bed each year — and if you tend to be a hot sleeper, that might be a conservative estimate. There are two big factors to consider when reading mattress reviews for hot sleepers: first, breathability; second, heat conductivity and retention. The more breathable your mattress materials, the better your mattress will be at allowing air in, out, and away from your body.

Seniors

Sleep difficulties are so common among the elderly that we often assume it’s just a normal part of aging. While changes in sleep architecture are normal as we age, sleep deprivation is not. The best mattresses for seniors have sufficient support to maintain neutral spine alignment, enough contouring to relieve pressure points (think heels, hips, shoulders), and some means for regulating body temperature. High-density memory and latex foam mattresses that are medium or medium firm are especially good choices for seniors who suffer from arthritis, joint pain and back pain. Companies who offer White Glove Delivery and setup make it possible for elderly to not lift a finger when their new bed arrives. Read our mattress reviews for the best mattresses for seniors.

Couples

Compromising in a relationship can be tough. But your mattress is definitely not something you’ll want to settle for. Whatever your preferences, there are a few key elements you should look for in a mattress when you’re sharing the bed with someone else. Things like durability and support are important, but you’ll also want a mattress that has good motion isolation - in other words, if your partner gets up or moves around in the middle of the night, you don’t want to feel it.

Back & Joint Pain

More than 80 percent of Americans will experience an episode of low back pain at some time in their lives. If you’re currently sleeping on a mattress that doesn’t offer you the proper support or spinal alignment, there’s a good chance it’s actually making your back or joint pain worse. Memory foam tends to be the best type of mattress to help cradle your body, relieve pressure points and keep the spine in good alignment. There are a few hybrid and latex mattresses that can do this well too. You may have heard a rumor that sleeping on a rock-hard mattress is best for your back pain. To be honest, that sounds kind of miserable. And it’s also not true. While everyone’s preference is going to differ slightly, people who suffer from back pain generally prefer a medium-firm to firm mattress. (This is usually a 5.5 – 7.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale.) See our mattress reviews for the best mattresses for people who suffer with back and joint pain.
