What Mattress Fits My Sleep Style?
Not sure which features matter most for the way you sleep? Here’s what to look for based on your sleep position and needs:
For Side Sleepers:
- Memory foam and pressure-relieving materials like TEMPUR® and Nectar therapeutic foam

How Firm Should My Mattress Be?
Mattress firmness isn’t one-size-fits-all. Here’s how to decide:
- Plush to Medium-Plush: Soft and contouring, ideal for side sleepers or anyone who prefers a “hugging” feel.
- Medium to Medium-Firm: Balanced comfort for back and combination sleepers. Offers enough support without being too firm.
- Firm to Ultra-Firm: Best for stomach sleepers or those who need a solid, supportive surface for spinal alignment.
Why Do Cooling Features Matter?
Sleeping hot can interrupt your rest—luckily, many of today’s top mattresses are built to keep you cool:
- TEMPUR® SmartClimate® and PureCool+™ technology
- Gel-infused memory foam in Nectar®, Ashley®, and Encore®
- Breathable knit covers with airflow foam layers
- Moisture-wicking fabrics like TENCEL® and Sealy®’s MoistureProtect™
What About Motion Isolation and Edge Support?
- Motion Isolation helps light sleepers rest through the night—even if a partner or pet moves around. Look for memory foam or pocketed coil systems from Tempur-Pedic®, Nectar®, Sealy®, and Encore®.
- Edge Support keeps your mattress feeling stable and extends the usable sleep surface—perfect for couples. Reinforced edges from Sealy®, Ashley®, and Encore® provide long-term durability and stability.
