Since the pandemic halted our ability to group-test mattresses, our sleep team members have been assessing mattresses alone in the office and at home. Our latest update includes the top-performing mattresses from our previous group tests , as well as a new budget pick and a range of additional options from fluffy to firm in our notable contenders section. The Leesa Hybrid combines the best elements of memory-foam and spring mattresses. It has better cooling and a thicker cover than the competition, all at a great price for a hybrid.
The inch Leesa Hybrid won more votes than any other mattress in the hybrid category when we first tested it in when it was called the Leesa Sapira , and it has remained a strong favorite through two more rounds of testing in and The high-quality, durable materials make this model a good value, and we think it would work well for stomach-, back-, and side-sleepers, as well as for those who weigh more than pounds.
The Leesa Hybrid comes with a day trial period and a year warranty. With a luxurious slow-sinking foam and sturdy edge support, the Tempur-Adapt Medium Hybrid feels leagues ahead of most mattresses we tried.
This mattress comes in two firmness levels, so it should work for a variety of sleep positions. The year warranty and day trial period are particularly generous. This Costco favorite is a great value, made from layers of foam that are as dense and probably as durable as the foam in many of the mattresses that cost twice as much. Testers loved its cuddly yet supportive feel, but some found it to be too firm.
Wirecutter testers and online reviewers who like the inch Novaform ComfortGrande , sold at Costco stores and on Costco. The Novaform ComfortGrande comes with a year warranty. It has a soft top but a firm under layer, so you should feel supported yet cushioned at the same time. It comes with a day trial and a year warranty. Good latex mattresses are expensive, but we think this one is a decent value.
The inch Zenhaven feels supple but still supportive, with a springiness similar to that of a traditional coil mattress. The two-sided Zenhaven is flippable and has two firmness levels: The Luxury Plush side is medium-firm, and the other side is a bit firmer.
And I talk frequently with experts—both in the mattress industry and in materials science—in order to better understand what makes a quality mattress. This guide builds on the work of Kevin Purdy, who, as a Wirecutter senior staff writer, spent two years testing about a dozen mattresses, including trying them out in our Los Angeles office and sleeping on them for a month at a time in his home.
In fall , associate staff writer Justin Redman researched and tested several additional mattresses for this guide. The best any mattress can do, our experts told us, is feel amazing for a small group of people, work well for some people, and do okay for the majority of people.
The only generalization we can make is that, to a certain extent, you get what you pay for. Instead, we focus on models with a broad enough appeal and a good price for the quality of the components offered.
We also prefer companies that are transparent and specific about the materials they use. Another very general guideline: If you weigh more than pounds, consider investing in a mattress with higher foam densities , which should make the mattress more durable. Mattresses with higher foam densities are also typically more expensive.
Most foam mattresses claim to be medium-firm the medium-rare of the mattress industry , but our tests and other reviewers have found a huge range within that middle.
Stomach-sleepers tend to need a medium-firm to slightly firmer mattress, not only to keep their head and neck aligned but also to cradle their knees or the front of their hips. Keep in mind that you may prefer something other than what your sleep style naturally suggests; for instance, we think several of our medium-firm mattress picks would be comfortable for all sleep positions.
This mattress is especially good for people who change positions aka rotators , because the springs make it easy to move around on. Along with the Tempur-Adapt, the Leesa has consistently earned more top votes in our panel tests than competing hybrid mattresses, including the hybrid versions of the Casper and Casper Wave, the Serta iComfort, and the Helix Plus.
In our test, we tested the Leesa against three other hybrids, and 22 out of 29 testers chose it as their favorite or second favorite.
Leesa makes four mattresses. Both the Leesa Hybrid and the Original create a loose cradling sensation, as opposed to the all-out hug that some memory-foam mattresses offer, and both come with a sturdy, seamless cover.
In addition, at 4 pounds per cubic foot, the memory-foam density of the Hybrid makes it more durable and firmer than the all-foam Leesa Original which has a density of around 3 pounds per cubic foot. Two Leesa Original owners who tried the Hybrid said it felt more solid than the Original. But it was interesting to note that all but one of the testers who weighed more than pounds chose the Leesa Hybrid as their top pick or runner-up in the hybrid category; it got more overall votes than the Casper Hybrid, Casper Wave Hybrid, or Tempur-Adapt.
You can try the Leesa Hybrid and the all-foam Leesa Signature at select department stores. Associate staff writer Justin Redman, who also tested the bed at home for about a week, reported that the mattress felt uncomfortably firm when he was sleeping on his side, though too-cool temperatures from the mattress being in storage for many months may have hardened the foam. How it feels: Medium-firm.
The company also sells a just-as-substantial-looking, no-spring Medium version of the Tempur-Adapt, but we liked that the Hybrid was slightly easier to move around on and had a sturdier edge. Over three years of testing, more testers have chosen the Tempur-Adapt as their overall favorite than any other mattress. When Justin Redman, our associate sleep writer, tried it at home, he found that the Tempur-Adapt relieved pressure comfortably, even though he typically likes mattresses that are much softer than this one.
After sleeping on the Tempur-Adapt for a week in , I wished I could keep it. That sturdy edge kept me from falling out of bed when my son joined my husband and me in the middle of the night, and it isolated motion well enough for me to sleep until morning—even with two other people in the bed tossing and turning.
Neither my husband nor I slept hot on the Tempur-Adapt, though heat retention was a common complaint among the owner reviews we analyzed. Unlike many of the companies whose mattresses we tried in our brand-concealed test, Tempur-Pedic has been around for more than two decades, which suggests a proven track record. In other words, chances are good that the company will still be around a number of years from now if you happen to run into problems with the warranty.
The Tempur-Adapt is one of the least expensive mattresses Tempur-Pedic sells. Tempur-Adapt mattresses are available to try out at a slew of locations , so you can decide for yourself whether the huggier-foam upgrade in the pricier lines is worth the expense.
Plus, the Tempur-Adapt is about twice as expensive as many of our other recommended foam mattresses. We recommend browsing in a store first. Back- and stomach-sleepers, as well as people who weigh more than pounds, should go for the Firm model. How it feels: The Relaxed Firm version feels medium-firm, with a plush surface that cradles you instead of sucking you in.
The Firm version feels much, much firmer and has a more conventional memory-foam sink. But it offers upgraded features, enhanced comfort, stronger durability, and transparency about its materials, all of which we think make this mattress worth the extra cost.
Note: The Casper Wave has been redesigned with a new foam and cover since early These densities suggest good durability, including for people who weigh more than pounds. But when I tried that version in a store, it felt tabletop-hard; you may find the Serta iComfort see the notable contenders section more comfortable.
It is not recommended for those who weigh more than pounds. How it feels: The Novaform ComfortGrande comes in one firmness level, medium firm, and most of our testers agreed with the description. The surface is just billowy enough for you to feel nestled but not sunk in.
Six out of 29 testers even preferred the Novaform to the higher-end foam mattresses, hybrids, and latex beds. When he tested it at home, he slept neither hot nor cool on it. As we discuss in our guide to choosing a mattress , the cooling capabilities touted by most mattress companies rarely make much of a difference.
For people who weigh less than pounds, we think the Novaform ComfortGrande will last as long as many of the more expensive foam mattresses such as the Leesa Original or Casper Original of similar densities. And Novaform even offers a year warranty. I usually fall asleep on my side, but because I happened to have strained a shoulder muscle before trying the Novaform ComfortGrande, I slept on my stomach and back with this mattress. But even with the fee included, the Novaform ComfortGrande is still cheaper than all but one of our other picks.
For those over pounds, experts suggest that there is less risk of sagging and deep indentations with memory foams that are at least 4 pounds per cubic foot such as those found in the Leesa Hybrid or Tempur-Adapt than with latex foams such as those found in the Zenhaven. Customers have also complained that the ComfortGrande gives off a smell when it first arrives.
Another recurring online complaint is that the ComfortGrande takes a long time to inflate to its full height—and in some cases never fluffs up to 14 inches.
Like all mattresses, the Novaform ComfortGrande has been dismissed in online owner reviews as being both too soft and too firm, but at the time of our research, we spotted more complaints about the latter. If you like a noticeably conforming memory-foam hug, the ComfortGrande is also not appropriate.
You might be happier spending more on the Tempur-Adapt or even the Tulo Medium , which had a more conventional memory-foam feel in our tests. Materials: memory foam, polyfoam Thickness: 14 inches Firmness options: only one firmness available Free trial period: According to Costco policy, you can return the mattress for a full refund at any time.
Warranty: 20 years. Not recommended for those who are over pounds. This was our former top pick for back-sleepers, but the newest version of the mattress felt a little softer to us than the old version, which is why we now recommend it for people who rotate frequently.
The polyfoam layers are dense enough that they should be durable the two layers are 1. Flaws but not dealbreakers: The return policy sounds like a pain. We also think this mattress is not a good choice for people who weigh more than pounds. The top layer of foam, although of a decent density, is inherently less substantial than memory foam, and the mattress has no transition layer before you get to the firm support layer.
My brother, who weighs pounds, said he dropped pretty quickly through the top layer, and as a result the mattress felt more firm than it was actually meant to feel. Materials: polyfoam, micro-polyamide a synthetic cotton-like material and polyester cover Thickness: 10 inches Firmness options: only one firmness available Free trial period: nights Warranty: 10 years.
The Gentle Firm side provides extra support for back- and stomach-sleepers, while the Luxury Plush side offers pressure relief for side-sleepers.
The foam density should prove durable for those who weigh more than pounds. What it feels like: The two sides are distinct but not drastically different from each other. The cheaper ones are often excessively firm and off-puttingly elastic in feel. The all-latex Zenhaven from Saatva maximizes the advantages of latex while minimizing the disadvantages.
It rates firmness on a scale of one to ten; the soft side ranks at a four and the firm side at a seven. Those layers are made of a copper-gel memory foam that the brand says has cooling ability. The hybrid mattress I slept on consists of seven layers the all-foam one has six ; at its center is a six-inch layer of springy coils that offer increased airflow and more support for larger bodies.
As a plus-size sleeper, this construction appealed to me. My partner who has slept beside me on both agrees. The Layla Hybrid is bouncy but never gives that sinking feeling. The tester : Jenna Milliner-Waddell, Strategist writer. How I sleep: I am never not sweating and always sleep on my side or stomach.
This proprietary foam, Nolah claims, makes its mattresses cooler than any other memory-foam mattresses. The Original 10 mattress I tested is topped with two inches of Nolah AirFoam; beneath that is a one-inch layer of high-resilience foam that the company claims makes the mattress percent more durable than the average memory-foam mattress.
The rest of the ten-inch-thick mattress consists of a high-density breathable base foam. Beyond being cooling and durable, Nolah says the mattress is also particularly comfortable for side-sleepers like myself, because its combination of foams results in a plush-but-supportive mattress with a medium amount of body contouring.
Side-sleepers apparently need pressure relief on their hips and shoulders, along with a mattress that supports the alignment of the spine, shoulders, and pelvis; Nolah claims its AirFoam puts percent less pressure on the shoulders, hips, and back, providing 22 percent more pressure-relief overall. One was that I would almost sink into it too much, making it harder for me to naturally roll over onto my stomach as I sometimes do while sleeping.
Its memory foam also seemed to absorb my sweat and its odor , too, perhaps because of the way it absorbed my body. The Nolah Original is not my old memory-foam mattress topper — in the best way. Its top layers of memory foam have some give, but the mattress is much firmer: When I sit on it, I notice a soft bounce, but when fully recline, I feel totally supported. The best way I can tell? I used to need a weighted blanket to get an uninterrupted night of sleep, but with the Nolah, I have been sleeping through the night and often to my alarm without one.
The fine print: Nolah offers free shipping and free returns within a night trial period; if you decide to send a mattress back within that time, the company will donate it and give you a full refund. Currently, Nolah does not ship mattresses to Alaska and Hawaii.
The tester: Maxine Builder, Strategist editor. How I sleep : I am a stomach-sleeper who prefers a plush mattress that cradles my body. However, I share a bed with a back-sleeper who prefers a firm mattress with little-to-no give. How I slept : I used a sleep tracker for five nights while testing this mattress, and every night I fell into a deep sleep quickly and stayed there.
The mattress felt soft and plush, but I never sank down into it. My partner, who is so enamored with sleeping on hard surfaces that he sometimes naps on a yoga mat on our hardwood floor, raved about the pressure relief and comfort he felt from the foam filling in the small of his back while he slept.
The fine print : Standard shipping is free, though Leesa can arrange white-glove delivery, which includes mattress removal, for an additional fee.
The tl;dr: This is a foam mattress but a substantial one that offers excellent pressure relief. The tester: Lori Keong, former Strategist writer. How I sleep: I am not loyal to any one position, so my ideal mattress is a jack-of-all-trades with support for my back, but which is also cushy enough to let me comfortably flop around on my stomach and side. What to know: The Aviya mattress itself is a hybrid model with three layers of high-density foam over a coiled innerspring system.
That may be because Sleep Advisor , Sleepopolis , and Real Mattress Reviews gave it a near-perfect all-around score for comfort, materials, and support.
How I slept: Flopping down, I was immediately taken by how plush yet delightfully bouncy this mattress was. I was amazed at just how propped-up and aligned my body felt while supine, yet how comfortably I slept thanks to the padding of the quilted foam top. But the plush top still lends itself well to dozing on your side or stomach.
The fine print: Aviya provides free shipping, which includes in-the-door delivery through a third-party service. Mattress setup and removal are available for an additional fee , and Aviya will set this up during a two-hour window, Mondays through Fridays only.
The tester: Margaret Rhodes, former Strategist senior editor. The original premise of Casper was that one mattress could make everyone happy. The company has abandoned this Goldilocksian ideal and made other models read on for those , but this is the original: a four-layer foam construction with firmer support around the shoulders and hips. And it was great. It also makes some people call it a soft mattress Karen Iorio Adelson, Strategist senior writer. I found it to be squarely in the middle, with absolutely no painful give around the back, but cushy enough that collapsing into it at the end of the day felt like a reward.
Lori also had one and liked it. The fine print: You get the standard with mattress start-ups, at least days to decide if you like your Casper. Free shipping and returns come with that, and the company says it tries to donate returned mattresses when possible. The tl;dr: As a company, Casper is a well-oiled machine that makes delivery a cinch and offers other high-quality products along with the mattress, which is convenient if you want new, say, pillows. The tester: Lauren Ro, Strategist writer.
How I sleep: I mostly sleep on my back, but also switch to my side during the night. How I slept: Right off the bat, the mattress felt substantial. The textured fabric cover felt plush to the touch, and when I pressed my open hand down on the mattress, it bounced back with a friendly spring.
Sleeping on my back, I felt supported and cocooned at the same time, and when I turned to my side, the transition felt natural. It also comes with a ten-year warranty. The tester: Liza Corsillo, Strategist senior writer. I prefer a firm cool mattress since I run hot; I usually wake up with one leg free of any covers. I share the bed with a side-sleeper who runs just as hot and sometimes sweaty as I do. What to know : Avocado set out to create the greenest mattress on the market using nontoxic natural and organic materials as well as ecofriendly production processes.
The brand offers two different adult-size mattresses in addition to two for cribs : the Green and the Vegan, which is like the Green minus the wool. Both are foam-coil hybrids that layer eco-conscious natural Dunlop latex made from tree sap , recycled steel coils, organic cotton, organic wool, and hydrated silica a food-grade-quality flame retardant.
If it matters to you, Avocado also makes its mattresses in California and negates its shipping and delivery emissions through carbon-offset projects. How I slept : The first thing I noticed about the Avocado Green mattress was its height compared to my previous Casper mattress.
The Casper measures ten inches, and the Avocado with additional pillow-top I went for it despite liking firm beds after reading that it provides more support for side-sleepers measures 13 inches. It took a few nights to get used to the feeling that I was floating above the mattress, rather than sinking into it, but two weeks in, I felt incredibly well supported and less affected by my boyfriend shifting and changing positions the mattress has 1, individually wrapped coils. What it does have makes the mattress naturally anti-microbial, more breathable, and dust-mite resistant.
Delivery was easy — I got a call a few days out to schedule a drop-off window and again on the delivery day to let me know my mattress was ten minutes away. I opted for an additional mattress-pad cover because dog accidents happen and two standard pillows, which came separately via FedEx. The tl;dr: If you want a lot of support plus cushioning, Avocado is a foam-coil-hybrid mattress that will give you both. The layers of organic wool and cotton help to regulate body temperature and wick away moisture for warmer sleepers, too.
The tester: Kelsie Schrader, Strategist editorial coordinator. How I sleep: All over the place. I usually start curled up on my right side, but I switch to my back, stomach, and left side throughout the night. Temperature-wise, I tend to run warm. The brand notes this latex, called Talalay, is made in a factory that received certification from two organizations known for paying attention to sustainable manufacturing: the Rainforest Alliance and Cradle to Cradle.
A three-inch latex layer is smack in the middle of this inch mattress: Above it are a layer of wool and a cover made of cotton; both materials received Global Organic Textile Standard certification, according to the brand. Beneath the latex is a layer of recycled steel coils that sits atop a cotton-wool pad made of materials that are also GOTS-certified.
How I slept: According to my Garmin watch, about the same as always — which is the exact result I was hoping for. My sleep may have remained as consistent as ever on this mattress, but I found it to be far more comfortable than my old hybrid memory-foam model when I spent time on it while awake.
My old mattress failed miserably on that end: I sank right into the memory-foam layer when I sat on it, so much that permanent indentations started to form. The Saatva Latex Hybrid is the complete opposite: It was soft and bouncy yet supportive the first — and every subsequent — time I sat down to read on it. I never felt like I was sinking nor did I have to shift my weight to a new spot, even after an hour of reading. The tester: Hilary Reid, former Strategist writer.
What to know: PlushBeds makes all of its mattresses in a California factory using naturally derived, sustainable materials — an operation, it notes , that has received both Global Organic Textile Standard and Global Organic Latex Standard certifications.
The Natural Bliss mattress I slept on contains two layers of Arpico latex a natural latex made from tapping rubber trees that the brand says have been grown without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides , a so-called Eco Fire Barrier layer made of a chemical-free fire retardant material , and a hand-stitched organic-cotton cover. It comes in thicknesses ranging from six to ten inches, with thicker mattresses made of heftier latex layers.
No matter the thickness you choose, one of those latex layers can come in four firmness levels that range from soft to extra-firm, depending on your preference. How I slept: The Natural Bliss mattress I tested was ten inches thick, with the softest firmness level available soft.
When I first sat down on it, I was immediately taken by how plush it was — something I appreciated even more when I lied down. Lying on my side and my stomach was incredibly comfortable: I felt both supported and like I was sinking into the bed a bit, which had a pleasantly coddling effect that I think helped me sleep more deeply. Before sleeping on the Natural Bliss, I slept on a spring-and-foam mattress and would occasionally wake up with tension in my muscles. But I never woke up tense after a night on the latex Natural Bliss; in fact, I often woke with my muscles feeling noticeably relaxed.
The fine print: PlushBeds offers free delivery in the continental U. While pricey, I would consider doing this, especially if you live alone — the PlushBeds mattress was heavier than my old one, and a challenge to schlep upstairs in my building. The tester: Maxine stomach-sleeper; likes a plush mattress. That wool is the standout material, as it provides the cushion and plush, helps regulate temperature, and acts as a natural flame retardant unlike the Avocado, which uses silica.
What impressed me most about the Birch is how supportive yet plush it is — a dream for a stomach sleeper like me, who tosses and turns throughout the night. The fine print: Standard shipping is free to all 50 states. There is a night sleep trial period, which starts on the day of delivery, but Birch requires that you sleep on it for at least 30 days before initiating the return process for a full refund.
If you do decide to keep your mattress, you have a year limited warranty that protects against defects from normal use. The tester: Margaret stomach and side-sleeper; likes supportive but cushy mattresses.
It offers three models: the inch-tall luxe hybrid, which I tested, a newer, cheaper hybrid mattress simply called the Allswell, and the Supreme, a inch-tall hybrid with a temperature-regulating foam layer and so-called Euro top. The reviews on the young brand are solid: Sleep Sherpa called Allswell a breakout brand; Mattress Clarity points out that its firmness makes it well-suited for back and stomach-sleepers.
How I slept: The strangest thing happened the first time I slept on the Allswell: I laid down on my back to assess the mattress, noting how buoyant I felt. And then I stayed that way and passed out. Perhaps I was feeling emotionally spent — I had just crawled into bed after seeing A Star Is Born — but more accurately, there was something comfortably paralyzing about letting this very firm mattress straighten out my skeleton.
I slept like a rock for eight hours, several nights in a row. The tester: Casey Lewis, former Strategist senior editor. How I sleep: Almost always on my stomach, every once in a while on my side, and never on my back. I also tend to run hot — but that could be because I share a bed with a pitbull-boxer who likes to cuddle.
What to know: Nectar launched in , making it one of the newer bed-in-a-box mattress companies. How I slept: Prior to receiving my Nectar mattress, I had been sleeping on a mattress I acquired from a former roommate. It was supposed to be temporary, but nine years later I was still sleeping on it.
And so was my dog, whose every move I could feel and hear because the ancient spring mattress would bounce and squeak whenever he got in and out of bed. After spending many years on top of that mattress, the Nectar seemed almost too firm to the touch. When I plopped down on a corner, it had nearly no bounce at all. While I still woke up with stress dreams, I never once woke up with sweat-soaked sheets. And if you share your bed with restless pets or people , the mattress almost makes you forget they are there.
My old mattress gave me slight lower back pain, but that went away once I started sleeping on this one!
I slept well, just light tossing and turning. Image courtesy of Casper. The Casper mattress is made of three layers of foam—1. It was very easy! The box was left right at the front door. It took two people to unpack the Casper Original and get it onto the bed frame. After that, it was simple: I just removed the plastic wrap and it puffed right up.
I would say it took about 20 minutes total. However, I did notice the mattress had a subtle chemical smell at first. The first night, the mattress took a bit of getting used to. After that, though, I slept great.
Yes, I would recommend it. Image courtesy of DreamCloud. Made of eight layers: five of various types of memory foam for contouring cushion, one of natural latex for bounce, one of foam-encased pocketed micro coils for support, and a hand-tufted cashmere-blend cover. The delivery process was very standard. The mattress arrived quickly, which was great. But it was no different from any other package in that it was left with my doorman, who carried it up to my apartment.
I was assembling a bed frame at the same time I was setting up my mattress, so I had already hired a Task Rabbit to assemble the frame. He kindly unboxed my mattress as well.
The mattress is a great middle ground between firm and soft. I would say this mattress is an 8. I typically love a really squishy, sink-in mattress, and this is definitely not that.
I slept very well! Made in the U. Free ground shipping nationwide. No hiccups at all. Arrived in a box at my apartment door, on time. It was simple—I was able to unbox the mattress easily by myself, and set it up on my bed frame. The mattress felt light and easy to maneuver. The Propel mattress is firm but also soft, with a layer of foam that has responsive contouring.
But really, the benefit this mattress offers is its textile technologies that claim to create a better overall sleep experience by ensuring a sleep temperature of 88 degrees. But I will say the bed is quite comfortable. The description of the mattress online sounds scientific and also a bit mystical, so I was intrigued to try it. I would give it an 8. It is extremely comfortable and I was able to adjust to it instantly.
The price is good, and I have been sleeping very well. Made of a perimeter of individually wrapped coils surrounded by foam, an inner core of memory foam with coil support, and a steel coil base, plus a pillow top and an organic cotton cover.
They were punctual, even early, but with advance notice. I received a text letting me know the mattress would be delivered the next day. I then got a call that morning saying the movers would be arriving in 30 minutes. The entire process took all of 10 minutes. The mattress arrived in clear wrapping and the delivery guys set it up quickly. They were efficient and very sweet. They even played with my three-year-old twins, helping them jump on the new bed!
It is very firm. The mattress was firmer than our old one so it took a couple of days to get used to it, but once we did, it was terrific. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say the first week was a 7. I would give the second week a 9. I slept soundly through the night. With three targeted support zones from head to toe, the Coddle Mattress provides a different level of support right where your body needs it most.
Breathable foam and airflow channels keep the mattress temperature consistently cool with one soft side made of a coconut-infused, super plush comfort layer and one firm side made of a cool foam layer. I ordered the mattress and it was set to arrive in a matter of days.
When I finally got to the package area of my apartment building, there it was, safe and sound. The cardboard box it came in was the size of a small human adult i. And fine, my boyfriend was there to help. I anticipated a much more tiresome process for setting up the mattress, but all I had to do was place the box on the floor, long side down, open it up, and shimmy the mattress out of the box.
I cut open the plastic and in a matter of minutes, I had a bed! The instructions said it would be ready to go very shortly, and that it was. I am a fan. In the beginning, I found I needed to get used to it, but I also wondered if I was just really sore from an intense move combined with jet lag. After a week or two, I started to love it, which brought me to a solid 8.
I could see my rating increase as I try flipping between sides over time. For sure. Mattress tester: Contributor Nora Taylor. Delivery was great! They said it would get here on Tuesday and it got here on a Tuesday. The box was bulky but not impossible to get into the apartment. Easy and strangely fun. You sink luxuriously into the top layer but wake up feeling like you slept on something really sturdy. I would say a 9. The first night I had it I was reluctant to fall asleep since I just wanted to stay up and absorb the luxury, but after that I slept really well.
Also, the actual mattress is this really appealing heather gray, so it looks nice in between sheet changes. Mattress tester: Digital deputy director Kristen Flanagan. The delivery process was super straightforward. Parachute offers free white-glove delivery service for all mattress orders, which is amazing, especially if you live on the fifth floor, like I do. The delivery window was from 11 a.
Lucky me! The delivery guy was really nice—he played with my dog and made sure that the mattress was unpacked properly, taking care not to get it dirty. The mattress comes rolled up and wrapped in plastic, inside a cardboard box. The delivery guy used a box cutter to remove all of the packaging.
He took all of the packaging materials with him, which was a nice perk of the white-glove service. The mattress is designed to be medium-firm, which I was nervous about, but it turns out I love a firm mattress. My husband and I bought a Sleep Number bed when we first started living together because he likes a firm mattress and I thought I liked a soft mattress.
The Parachute mattress is a happy medium for both of us. My back feels very supported. The hand tufting makes the top soft but not too mushy. I am super sensitive to harsh chemicals and itchy fabrics, which makes this a great option for me. Until recently, I had been sleeping on the first mattress I had when I arrived in NYC seven years ago: a hand-me-down twin box spring. My order stated that I would receive the mattress in four days, but all told, it took about a week. The mattress showed up in my lobby in a cardboard box the size of a five-year-old.
A note of caution: I live on the fourth floor of a Brooklyn walk-up, and despite my undying faith in kettlebell workouts, I definitely needed to call my boyfriend for reinforcement. Once I had lugged my mattress upstairs and split open the box actually, two boxes , the setup process was pretty simple.
