Most Comfortable Mattress for Back Sleepers
For most people (except those with sleep apnea or frequent snorers), back sleeping is widely viewed as the healthiest position. As long as you use the right height pillow (avoid the super thick one), it's easier to keep your spine aligned neutrally and your neck in a healthy, proper position. So, back sleepers have more options for buying a mattress. To be specific, a medium-firm or slightly firmer bed helps promote proper alignment of the spine and hips. Also, for lightweight sleepers, the mattress with an extra top cushion/comfort layer to support the lumbar spine region will be better.
The best comfortable mattress for back sleepers is our Sunkiss memory foam mattress. It's a perfect choice for back sleepers because the mattress has flippable comfort, a softer surface for lightweight back sleepers and a firmer surface for heavier back sleepers. In addition, it is designed to contour to body shape for proper spine alignment.
Most Comfortable Mattress for Side Sleepers
Most people are sleeping on their side. As a rule, side sleepers prefer the softer, cloud-like mattresses, such as memory foams, latexs or pillow top mattresses with an innerspring base. Why so special? When you lie on your side, your hips and shoulder need extra space to sink a bit into the bed to keep the spine aligned. If your bed is too firm, the blood flow of these regions will be hindered, and you will feel uncomfortable and numb.
For side sleepers, we suggest our Breeze Memory Foam Mattress in medium-soft. The mattress falls to a relatively soft level. Its all-foam construction provides a cloud-like, body-hugging feel, which is the perfect choice for side sleepers who like extra cushioning under their shoulders and hips.
Most Comfortable Mattress for Stomach Sleepers
For the few people who most like to sleep on their stomach, a bed that is too soft can lead to pain and tossing and turning throughout the night. This is because sinking into the mattress puts a lot of pressure on their spine, resulting in an unnatural curvature. A medium-firm to firm sleeping surface will not only provide you with a little extra cushion to reduce pressure on your ribs and hips, but will also ensure enough support for your lower back to keep your spine aligned.
That's why we recommend our relatively sturdy Ocean Blue Hybrid Mattress for stomach sleepers. It allows you to feel adequately supported - not like you're trapped in the bed. This cooling hybrid mattress provides proper spine alignment. The cover is made of breathable, OEKO-TEX certified fabrics to prevent you from overheating with face-down. However, Twilight Pillow Top Hybrid Mattress will be the best choice for stomach sleepers who prefer extra comfort.
Most Comfortable Mattress for Combination Sleepers
If during the night, you tend to constantly change your sleeping position. A medium-firm mattress is a perfect fit for you.
For combo sleepers, we find our Island Hybrid Mattress is the best comfortable bed. It's a medium-firm mattress that combines the benefits of memory foam & innerspring, which is bouncy and responsive to help you move around on and is topped with foam layers for an extra comfortable feel.
Most Comfortable Mattress for Back Pain Sufferers
The best mattress for back pain relief promotes neutral spinal alignment. Proper support is essential whether you have lower back pain or upper back pain. Our long-term research finds that a scientifically zoned mattress is beneficial for pain relief.
For those with back pain, we recommend our two-zoned Dreamy Hybrid Mattress in medium-firm. Its two top layers of premium foam contour to your body shape and cradle the sharper pressure points. While the two-zoned pocket coil layer ensures you targeted support to your hips and upper back, helping reduce aches and pains.
Most Comfortable Mattress for Those Who Snore
It is estimated that 90 million Americans snore from time to time at night. If you are one of them, a mattress that provides extra support for your head and neck is more suitable for you, such as memory foam and latex mattresses. Elevating your head and upper body will help open up your airway so you can breathe more smoothly. An adjustable base is the best way to achieve it. Alternatively, you can elevate your upper body with the help of a wedge pillow.
Tranquil adjustable bed frame is on sale, may you have a try.
Sweetnight cooling memory foam mattresses can be used with our adjustable bed frames, providing excellent head and neck support for snorers. With an exceptional cooling gel-infused memory foam layer, you can also maintain a comfortable temperature at night without the hassle of sweating.
