I see you sleeping. zyhere's
drool on your pillow. Are you a side sleepers?
Yeah, I am. How did you know? Honestly, lucky guess.
Most of the population are side sleepers. So you're not a Palm Raider?
No, but I am mattress expert. You know, I'm a bit of a
mattress expert myself. Oh, we should definitely share our top tips for the
best mattresses for side sleepers. But before we reveal what the stars
have aligned for side sleepers, remember, you can find all of these Mattress
Clarity in depth reviews at mattressclarity.com, and you'll find some great money
saving coupons in the description box below. Now, I predict
you might need some help when buying a new mattress. So here are some things
you should look out for first. You want to think about pressure relief. If you
sleep on your side, you might need a thicker comfort layer so that you don't
build up pressure on your shoulders and your hips. Side sleepers also
need to consider their spinal alignment. A more medium, firm mattress can keep
your spine in the correct neutral alignment, and you want to think about
durability. You don't want your mattress to sag as time goes on.
Now, we're not mind readers here, but I think you're ready to see our top
picks. Let's talk about them.
If you've explored Mattress Clarity, you know that we are big
fans of the Saatva mattress and for good reason.
It helps people with back pain, it's super durable,
and it works really well for side sleepers. Their classic
mattress comes in three different firmness options, but for
side sleepers, we recommend their softest or their medium firm
option. The soft option works really well for lightweight folks,
and the medium option works well for average to heavier people. Another thing
I love about the Saatva is that it's got a really lovely plush
pillow top. Plus, the coils make the mattress really responsive,
and it provides room for airflow. Like all Saatva mattresses,
these beds are never compressed into cardboard boxes, and they
offer white glove delivery.
Are you a side sleepers who needs a little help finding a comfortable mattress?
Well, Helix has a quiz that will match you to your perfect mattress.
But overall, here at Mattress Clarity, we love the Helix Midnight for side
sleepers. It comes in at a seven out of ten on our firmness scale,
making it a bit better for average weight side sleepers. But what
makes it great for you guys is that you'll find tons of
memory foam in the comfort layer. It has Helix's proprietary
foam called Memory Plus Foam, which will provide great body
contouring and pressure relief in your hip and your shoulders.
If you're feeling especially luxurious, you can opt for the Luxe model of
this mattress, which will provide even more comfort and cooling
features. But overall, a comfortable best mattress for side sleepers is
definitely the Helix Midnight.
Typically, we don't recommend firm mattresses for side sleepers,
but some people prefer it. So if you fall in this category,
definitely check out WinkBeds. This mattress is just
slightly firmer than medium firm on our firmness scale. For reference,
six and a half out of ten is considered medium firm.
This one comes in at a seven out of ten, but what's really great
about it is that it has a zoned support system. This means it
feels firmer in the center and softer near the head
and the foot, so you're still going to get that pressure relief along your
shoulders where you need it most. Plus strong coils at the bottom
give it a long lifespan.
Do you need a cooling bed? Who are you going to call? GhostBusters???
No, GhostBed, Roby. I'm sorry, what? GhostBed.
Yeah, the GhostBed Luxe
Lux will definitely send a chill down your spine, but in the best way
possible. On the outside of this mattress, you're going to find GhostBed's
Ice fabric, which is immediately cool to the touch,
and this cover has some gel memory foam worked into it to really
promote cooling. This is going to be a rather soft bed. You're really
going to sink into it and get really good body contouring.
We rated it a six out of ten on our firmness scale,
so more average weight and lightweight side sleepers are going to find the
pressure relief they need while staying cool at night.
Medium firm mattresses work great for side sleepers,
and the DreamCloud Premier is our favorite. It comes
in at a six and a half out of ten on our firmness scale,
which once again is the industry standard for medium firm beds.
And because it has all of these strong foils at the bottom,
it is super durable and will last you a long time.
Plus, it can support a variety of different body weight, so it works for a
variety of people. Another great thing about the DreamCloud is
that we named it one of the best orthopedic mattresses.
It will help you keep your spine in the correct alignment so you can stay
comfy all night long.
Are you a side sleepers on a bit of a budget? Well, the Nectar mattress
is going to be a good affordable pick for you. Even the biggest size, a
California King, doesn't come close to $2,000.
This is going to have that classic medium firm feel a six and a half
out of ten on our firmness scale. So side sleepers should really love
this mattress. You're really going to sink into the slow moving memory
foam and get really good body contouring and pressure relief in your shoulders
and your hips. And couples might want to consider the Nectar mattress
too, because it has really good motion isolation. This just means
that when you're sharing your bed with your partner, you shouldn't feel them
change. positions or get in and out of bed at night.
Looking for something super fancy that still makes you feel like you're sleeping on a
cloud? Then the Puffy Royal Hybrid has your name written
all over it. This mattress has a classic medium firm feel,
which once again comes in at six and a half out of ten. What I
love about this mattress is that it has so many different layers and each one
does something different. You've got that soft,
plush, slow moving foam at the top. You've got a gel infusion running
throughout, which helps pull heat away from the body. It's also got a moisture
wicking layer, so you stay cool and comfy. But the coolest thing about
it is it's zoned support system, so that means it feels firmer in some
areas, softer in others, so that your side will stay in a good
neutral alignment as the night goes on.
Durable, affordable and comfortable? These are
some of the reasons why we named the Brooklyn Bedding Sedona the best hybrid
mattress for side sleepers. It's going to have that classic medium
firm feel a six and a half out of ten on our firmness scale.
But what fire sleepers are really going to enjoy about the Sedona is that
it has four layers of foam in its comfort layers.
It's going to provide great body contouring and pressure relief in the shoulders
and the hips, and it's got some gel infusion running throughout
these layers to help promote cooling. While this is a luxury mattress,
the price point is fantastic. It's going to be a great investment for side
sleepers.
I'm seeing less back pain in your future,
and that is definitely true if you get the Cocoon Chill mattress.
This bed, like many others, has a classic medium firm feel,
but the reason why it works so well for people with back pain is
that it offers a great balance of comfort and support.
The top layers provide some really lovely body contouring,
while the strong coils help you maintain a neutral alignment throughout the
night. So if you're constantly plagued by back pain, this could help
you out.
Memory foam mattresses trap heat, right?
Right? Wrong! The Layla is
a prime example of this. On the outside of this mattress,
you'll find a cover infused with thermal gel, which will help dissipate body
heat. And in the comfort layers, you'll find copper infused
memory foam, which will just help keep you cool at night. This is a flippable
mattress with two firmness sides, a soft side that's a six out
of ten on our firmness scale, and a firm side that's an eight out of
ten on our firmness scale. Regardless of which side you decide to sleep
on, it's going to feel rather slow moving. You're definitely going to sink into
this mattress which side sleepers will love, because it will give you some
great pressure relief in your shoulders and your hips, and you'll just sleep
cool at night on this phone bed.
Still got questions? We are here to help. The first question
is, how do I pick a best mattress for side sleepers?
There's a couple of things you want to think about. Make sure that it's got
a thicker comfort layer and that it provides some nice pressure relief.
Typically, medium firm mattresses work best and you want to
make sure that your mattress isn't going to sag as time goes on.
But if you need more detailed information about this, make sure to
read our buyer's side in our full written review. How firm
should a mattress be if you sleep on your side? Well, typically softer
mattresses will work, but a medium firm mattress is probably going to be best
because it will keep your spine in a neutral alignment while you sleep.
Last question what type of mattress works
best for side sleepers, hybrid or all foam?
So both of these beds work really well, but it kind of just comes down
to your own personal preference. Hybrid mattresses are a bit
bouncier, while all foam beds tend to create a little bit
more pressure relief. I will say, though, that hybrid mattresses typically
last longer. So if you're worried about your mattress sagging
or losing durability, might want to go for a hybrid.
