Especialistas em sono da revelam as principais marcas de colchões que eles adoram testar –

We constantly receive new beds and updated lines of mattresses to review at our mattress testing facility, where we put them through a series of strategic tests and analyze characteristics such as firmness, feel, edge support, motion isolation and more. Our team of mattress testers and certified sleep science coaches is always eager to test a new bed or sleep accessory — but each of us has certain brands we’re particularly excited about testing. We’ve compiled a list of our favorite mattress brands of all time to test. Below are those we’re most eager to review, along with our top picks from each mattress maker.

Mattress price scale:

  • $ = Budget: $799 and below
  • $$ = Average: $800 to $1,699
  • $$$ = Premium: $1,700 and up
  • These reflect MSRP or list prices. Sales might make a mattress less expensive but are always changing.

    “The bed-in-a-box movement took the world by storm over eight years ago, and DreamCloud immediately stole a piece of my heart. The first DreamCloud mattress I tested in 2017 was the brand’s flagship model, which gave me the luxurious feel at the affordable price I was looking for. I’ve since graduated to a king-size but still have DreamCloud in my guest room for all to experience.” — Dillon Payne, director of video production

    Over the years, DreamCloud Sleep has expanded its offerings. It now has three collections of mattresses: DreamCloud, DreamCloud Premier and DreamCloud Premier Rest, each with your choice of hybrid or all-foam construction. If you are on a tighter budget but are looking for a responsive, luxurious mattress, DreamCloud could be a great option. Dillon’s favorite DreamCloud mattress overall is the DreamCloud Premier. He enjoys its cushioning yet responsive memory foam feel and plush cloud-like cover. Landing around a medium firm, this bed provides plenty of spinal support for back sleepers like him.

    As one of the original bed-in-a-box brands, you’ve likely heard of Purple. Its beds feature a breathable and moldable GelFlex Grid, creating a distinct feel that people tend to either absolutely love or strongly dislike. “I love to test Purple products because they are all so unique thanks to the hyper-elastic polymer material Purple uses. No other brand has anything quite like it, and Purple seems willing to push the envelope with its mattress design and make mistakes. Thinking back to Purple’s original pillow, it was just a huge, 10-pound slab of polymer that not many people liked, but it was an interesting idea!” — Owen Poole, senior video producer

    Owen’s all-time favorite Purple mattress was the Purple Hybrid Premier 3, which is no longer in production. He still particularly enjoys its replacements, the Restore Plus and Restore Premier. “The Purple Restore Premier has unique foam-tipped coils that I have only seen on one other mattress. In combination with the GelFlex Grid, the design makes this mattress one-of-one,” says Owen. Owen is such a fan of Purple that he slept on the Purple Hybrid Premier mattress for five years, which says a lot for a sleep expert and mattress reviewer with access to dozens of other beds.
