After extensive testing, the Helix Midnight Luxe became our favorite mattress overall. It earned high marks for its responsiveness, edge support and superior pressure relief. While the mattress may not provide enough support for dedicated stomach sleepers, the Midnight Luxe is an excellent option for just about anyone else, especially combo and side sleepers. Pro tip: Hot sleepers may want to consider splurging on its optional cooling cover for an additional $249. 

Back, side and combo sleepers will appreciate the DreamCloud’s medium-firm feel, plush pillow top and responsive pocketed coils. Overall, the mattress is cushy and pressure-relieving on your joints while still providing a lifted feel. The bed also provides excellent motion isolation—a major pro for couples. 

One of the most popular designs in our mattress shopping guides, the Nectar Premier is our pick for the best memory foam mattress. The bed has dense foam layers that expertly contour and relieve pressure to help promote healthy spinal alignment. As is common with most memory foam mattresses, you’ll feel more “in” than “on” your bed, but we found the newly revamped Nectar Premier to be a bit more responsive than your average memory foam design.

If you’re interested in a plush and cooling mattress, we recommend the WinkBed. The mattress is designed with a cushy Euro pillow top that’s infused with gel to make it more breathable, especially compared to classic pillow-top designs. The bed comes in three firmness levels, but we found they all skewed a bit firmer than average, something to keep in mind while narrowing down your options.

Dedicated back and stomach sleepers should aim for a firm and supportive mattress to help with spinal alignment. We found the Plank Firm to not only be one of the firmest beds we’ve ever tested (and one of few beds endorsed by the American Chiropractic Association), but the flippable design also allows you to trial two different firmness levels to find your ideal sleep fit.  

Supportive and cooling, this hybrid mattress is a great option for a wide range of sleepers. The design comes in three firmness levels, all with excellent edge support and motion isolation. We found the medium-firm model leans firmer than average, so we recommend the plush model for side sleepers or anyone who prefers to feel a little more cradled by their mattress. 

Our editors selected this Avocado mattress as the best organic model available in 2025—not only is it constructed from certified organic and eco-friendly materials, but it’s highly customizable, available in three different firmnesses (plush, medium, firm). It features latex foam to boot, one of the most sought-after mattress materials available today for its cooling, “bouncy” properties.  

A cool-to-the-touch cover meets copper and gel-infused foams in this airflow-promoting bed. Our staff tester found that the mattress actually follows through on the manufacturer’s “temperature regulation” promise, and noted that it provides ample support and pressure relief, as well.

Not only will you two agree that this is one of the comfiest mattresses you’ve ever tried, but you’re also likely to agree that now’s the best time to purchase it: You can save up to 35% with code MLKDAY (it’s already being offered for 30% off before you even type in the code). Cooling features, excellent edge support, great motion isolation and a balanced feel are just a few of the reasons we think this mattress is a fantastic choice in 2025.
