Getting a good night’s sleep starts with the right mattress.
Whether you're a side sleeper, back sleeper, or somewhere in between, here’s your ultimate guide to finding the mattress that suits you best.
1. Know Your Sleeping Position
- Back Sleepers: Medium-firm to firm support. Memory foam or hybrid mattresses are ideal.
- Side Sleepers: Softer surfaces to cushion shoulders and hips. Consider memory foam.

3. Don’t Forget Motion Isolation
Sharing a bed? Go for memory foam or pocket spring mattresses.
