How we test mattresses

Our CNET sleep team has been testing mattresses for years. With over 200 mattresses collectively under our belts, we’ve established testing methods we put each bed through to assess key performance factors like firmness, motion isolation, edge support and construction. 

We use the data we gather to recommend the best mattress for different body types, sleeper styles and health considerations. 

With our extensive testing experience and mattress knowledge, we can also tell the difference between a good mattress sale and one you can skip.

When should I upgrade my mattress?

If you can’t recall how long you’ve had your mattress, then it’s probably time for an upgrade. Experts recommend you replace your mattress roughly every six to 10 years for the best results and not just flip your mattress. Whether you’re looking for a mattress deal on a pressure-relieving memory foam model, an all-natural hypoallergenic latex model, a super comfy hybrid mattress or a customizable adjustable mattress set, the above roundup has got you covered. 

Factors to consider when choosing a mattress 

With sales like these, spring is always a good time to think about upgrading to a new mattress. Some of the best mattress brands like Brooklyn Bedding and Leesa offer big discounts on popular beds. When everything is on sale, it’s easy to go with the best mattress deal, but that might not be the right bed for you. Yes, you should consider sales, but there are a few other key factors to consider when shopping for your next mattress.

Firmness

One of the most important things to think about is the firmness you need for comfortable sleep. 

  • Side sleepers need a soft to medium mattress that will provide plenty of cushion along the pressure points of the shoulders, hips and knees. 
  • Back and stomach sleepers generally want a medium to firm mattress that promotes natural spinal alignment. You don’t have to get the firmest mattress, but you want to ensure you have the support you need. 
  • Combination sleepers have the most flexibility in what they choose. It’s a good idea to choose a firmness based on the position you spend the most time in. 

Body type

Your body type will help you decide what bed type and firmness to choose. Generally, we recommend that people over 230 pounds skip all-foam options and choose a hybrid mattress with a supportive steel coil base. 

Petite body types will put the least pressure on the mattress, meaning a bed will feel firmer to them than the average person. People over 230 pounds will experience the opposite: Beds will feel softer. 

Budget 

The average online mattress will cost between $800 and $1,200, although prices can go as low as $200 and well over $3,000. With so many mattresses out there, defining your budget will go a long way in narrowing your options. 

If you’re ready to take advantage of the tons of amazing mattress deals currently available but aren’t sure which mattress type is right for you, most online mattress companies offer an at-home sleep trial lasting from a few months up to a full year. If you’re unhappy with your purchase, you can get a full refund and have the company collect the mattress from your home. You can’t go wrong, and hopefully, you get a much better night’s sleep.
