Learn about the fillings and which design is best for different sleep positions.
Different levels of support are needed depending on how you sleep, to help keep the spine aligned.
Firm. If you lie on your stomach, opting for firmer support allows you to twist your head to breath without any discomfort.
Medium. Avoid ones that are too firm, as this can cause pain to your pressure points that include shoulders, hips and ears.
Medium or firm.
Both support levels offer an even distribution of your body weight.
A good mattress is the sum of its parts. These are what make ours so comfortable.

Made from either synthetic or natural materials, beneficial properties can include moisture absorption and temperature regulation.
You may require a slightly different design for guest bedrooms, body temperatures and more.
Due to the temperature regulating properties, mattresses with latex layers are ideal for hot sleepers. Pillow top styles might not be a good choice as the plushness can absorb and increase a person’s body heat.
People who have a heavier build should ideally opt for a firmer mattress for extra support. Lighter builds can go for softer choices.
A firmer mattress is good option as it can accommodate various sleep positions. Adding a mattress topper gives you the choice of making it feel softer if necessary.
The main purpose of either turning or rotating a mattress is to increase its lifespan. Which style you decide to go for is completely up to you. Some mattresses are designed with this in mind, while others are specifically created not to be rotated. A turn mattress has comfort layers on both sides, while a no-turn design only has it on one. If it is designed to be rotated, we recommend doing this every three to six months, for a more even distribution of the filling.
