    How we compare mattresses

    We read maker specs and buyer reports so you do not have to, and we are upfront that we do not run a sleep lab.

    Read our method

    • Construction

      The layers and materials the maker lists, and what they mean for feel.

    • Motion and comfort

      What people who share a bed say after months of use.

    • Trial and warranty

      How long you can test it and what is actually covered.

    • Value

      What you get for the price against others of the same size.

    Where to start

    A mattress that suits one person can feel wrong to another, so start with how you sleep rather than with a brand. Side sleepers usually want more cushioning at the shoulders and hips, while back and stomach sleepers tend to need firmer support. If you share a bed, look at how much movement carries across it. If you sleep warm, look at materials that do not trap heat.

    Then settle the size and the budget, and shortlist two or three beds. Before you order, read the trial and warranty terms on the seller's page, because they are what protect you if the bed turns out to be wrong for you. Models and prices change, so confirm the details at the time you buy.
