Comfort is a top priority for many mattress shoppers, but it can be hard to gauge, especially if you’re shopping online. But what if you could ask thousands of people who have actually slept on a mattress for their unbiased opinion?
That’s just what we did with our combined mattress surveys. And the result is like having 73,676 friends with a decade’s worth of knowledge tell you about their experiences.
Only two innerspring mattress brands whose models we've tested also receive our top ratings for comfort—Avocado and Charles P. Rogers.
Using lab equipment and human subjects, we evaluate how well a mattress supports the body for both back and side sleepers, how easily sleepers can shift their weight without disturbing a partner, and how well the mattress keeps its shape over time.
To simulate the typical eight- to 10-year useful life span of a mattress, we conduct a test in which a 308-pound roller is pushed over each model 30,000 times.
Here are the top-performing mattresses from the brands that CR members rate highly for comfort and owner satisfaction. For more mattress options, members can browse our mattress ratings with test results for more than 150 foam, innerspring, and adjustable air mattresses.
