Honorable Mentions
There are a few mattresses we’ve tested that aren’t the best but are good and worth mentioning, if you’re thinking about them.
Nest Bedding Quail for $1,039: When it comes to all foam mattresses from the old bed-in-a-box brands, I like the Casper above but the Quail by Nest is a great option if you want a foam bed that’s a little firmer and you’re willing to compromise. pay less. My biggest problem with the Nest was that despite its claimed cooling – the foam is filled with salt and created by air – I slept a little too hot during my week of testing.
Helix Sunset Elite for $2,999: Our top pick, Helix, also has Gathering the elite which consists of seven mattresses in a row and soft. At 16 inches high, this is the “tallest mattress on the web,” and it ships in two separate boxes, each heavy enough to meet FedEx requirements. The strength is controlled by the density of the foam in the upper part, which penetrates into the main support system. This allows the mattress to be changed if you feel sorry for your order. The bottom part has two separate layers of microcoils. I spent a month sleeping on the softest model from the Elite line, called Sunset, and I appreciated its depth. Helix offers a 100-day trial period on all of its mattresses.

Wayfair Sleep 14-inch Plush Cooling Gel Hybrid Mattress for $405: This top mattress has a cooling gel top that conforms to your body for comfort and has a classic pocket square underneath for compression and support, with memory foam in different sizes around the coils for support (combined with memory foam helps. and less movement , too). The upper part of the knitted fabric and the sides help with breathability and overall cooling. The mattress is compatible with adjustable bed baseit has a strong edge support, and CertiPUR-US and Oeko-Tex Certified (to ensure there are no harmful toxins in your mattress), and they have a 10 year warranty. This bed is perfect if you want a high quality mattress.
Tires to Avoid
There are examples that you should avoid. Most of these beds are very cheap, and if you don’t choose, they will feel good. Sometimes, the mattress is good but the price is not.
- The Magniflex Magnistretch 12 it is made in Italy and advertises itself as a back stretcher. It is endorsed by retired Italian soccer player Giorgio Chiellini and basketball star Stefano Tonut, who plays for the Italian equivalent of the Boston Celtics. Well, Magniflex certainly does something for the back, although I found it unacceptable. (It is worth noting that I a.m no The same Martin Cizmar who played a bit of football in Slovakia.) I only spent two nights on the Magnistretch before crying uncle and limping to another mattress tester. Hearing in the morning was like sleeping in a hammock made of chain-link fence, and my back was left weak and trembling – maybe it was stretched, and if I was, then I didn’t like to be with them. my back stretched.
- The Sleep Number Climate360 Smart Bed (5/10, WRED Review) can be controlled by temperature, which is surprising. The adjustable base means you can stay comfortable while watching TV, reading, or sleeping. Unfortunately, this price tag has more numbers, and sleep experts recommend avoiding using electronics before bed – advice that the Sleep IQ app contradicts. Did we mention that it costs as much as a used Buick and is not far behind in weight?
- The Amazon Basics mattress they are made of cheap foam that is not dense enough, which causes a lot of sinking.
- The Parachute Eco Comfort Mattress it doesn’t live up to its exorbitant price tag. The model we tested did not have enough padding on top of its cages.
How Firm or Soft Should Your Mattress Be?
The biggest decision in buying any mattress is how firm you want it to be. In general, heavier people and back or stomach sleepers will do better with a firm mattress, while lighter people and side sleepers will enjoy a softer mattress. Warmth is also a problem: soft mattresses sleep warm because your body sinks into the fabric and foam. Remember that all mattresses have a break-in period, and the way the mattress feels on your first night will not be the same after a week or two. It’s also worth considering that if you buy a firm mattress and want to soften it, a mattress topper is the best option—we have a complete guide to the best-but it is very difficult to make the mattress firm.
Do You Need a Hybrid or Foam Mattress?
Traditional mattresses were made mainly of foam springs and thin fabrics. On the other hand, bed-in-a-box mattresses are foam or hybrids that contain foam with built-in springs. We prefer hybrids because they’re more stable and supportive, and they’re usually cooler because the springs leave room for air to circulate. Compounds are often less expensive. Foam mattresses are soft, light, and inexpensive.
What Kind of Mattress Do You Want?
The prices in our guide are based on queen size, which is the most common size in the US. But everything we’ve included comes in different sizes, usually twin, XL twin, full, queen, king, and California king. You’ll want to buy a mattress topper the size of your bed.
How Easy Is It to Install a Bed-in-a-Box?
Take it from someone who has done a lot in the past year: Bed-in-a-box mattresses delivered by FedEx are easy to deal with. Most of these mattresses are supplied vacuum sealed and wrapped. Some are very heavy – up to 150 pounds – and if you’re ordering one of those, make sure someone is there to help you. When you unpack your bed-in-a-box mattress and open the vacuum bag, it will begin to expand, so remove it from or near your bed. We have some helpful tips how to install a mattress you bought online and many tips. Mattresses are usually ready to go within a few hours, but most manufacturers recommend giving them two days to reach their optimal state.
Should You Wait for a Sale to Buy a Mattress?
Mattresses go on sale frequently—Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Veterans Day have all been mattress sales holidays. In addition, online mattresses are often sold as if they are on sale forever. There is a good chance that you can save hundreds of dollars while waiting for the next big event. WIRED covers all of these deals and closely tracks mattress prices throughout the year so we can inform you of the best deals as opposed to “sale” deals that aren’t that much different from the regular price.
Are Online Mattresses Safe?
What If You Don’t Like The Mattress You Bought Online?
Most of the mattresses we’ve tested and recommend have a 100-night test period and a 10-year warranty. Before you buy, be sure to check the company’s policy because you may be on the hook for a nominal refund. Set yourself a reminder a few days before the deadline to make it to the finish line.
