What are your tips for quickly choosing a mattress which is right for you? I’m currently exchanging a mattress which felt (still does) great in store but after a few weeks the top “actigel” layer had worn in enough that the sprung layer was noticeable and was far too firm for side sleeping. Wish I’d known to check what the lower layer felt like and to realise that the top would compress quite a bit More on reddit.com

So...Consumer Reports LOVES the Avacado Green.
They're a great mattress, but yeah, it’s REALLY firm. (if youre a side sleeper) You might find it a bit hard on your shoulders and hips. If you’re worried, maybe try a softer hybrid instead. More on reddit.com

No clue about Consumer Reports, but here's the deal with my Puffy – it's just plain comfortable. I flop on my side, I crash on my back, doesn't matter, I'm out like a light. And it doesn't get all hot and stuffy. Been a real sleep saver for me. More on reddit.com

What is the best mattress?
We picked the Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid as the best mattress overall, based on the feedback we got from testers and our consumer survey, as well as our analysis of factors like value and company policies. Though we think it has wide appeal, remember that there's not a one-size-fits-all mattress option; everyone has unique preferences. That's why we also highlighted options that are best for a range of specialized sleep needs.

How often should you replace your mattress?
A mattress should likely be replaced after about seven years of use, according to the Better Sleep Council. Research indicates that people tend to keep their mattresses a bit longer than this – just more than eight years. This time frame is reflected in many warranty lengths, which are rarely less than 10 years.

When is the best time to buy a mattress?
If you can wait, the best time to buy a mattress is during a major holiday, like Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Presidents' Day, or Black Friday just after Thanksgiving. Black Friday usually brings the heaviest discounts you'll see all year. You may also see smaller sales and promo codes pop up around events like Prime Day, Veterans Day, or New Year's. Pro tip: If you can't wait for a major holiday, try creating an account on the brand's website, putting a mattress in your cart, and then abandoning it. You'll likely receive an email promotion from the brand asking you to come back to your c
