Do you live by yourself, perhaps in a tiny apartment? Do you have a partner whose sleep preferences are way different from yours? Do you hit the gym every day? Your answer to these questions can help determine which mattress is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips that will help you find the best mattress for the way you live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-mattress-for-single-adults\">The best mattress for single adults<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you live alone, a full-size mattress can be a great option. It offers ample space for one person but can also accommodate a second (if you don&#8217;t mind getting cozy). When you&#8217;re part of a couple, you have to consider both of your sleep preferences\u2014but solo sleepers don&#8217;t have to make any compromises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start narrowing down your choices by thinking about the way you sleep. Are you a side, back, or stomach sleeper, or do you move around between positions? That will determine your optimal firmness level.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/the-best-mattress-for-side-sleepers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Side sleepers<\/a>&nbsp;sleep best on a softer mattress,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/best-mattress-for-back-sleepers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">back sleepers<\/a>&nbsp;are better suited to a medium-firm surface,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/best-mattress-for-stomach-sleepers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stomach sleepers<\/a>&nbsp;should choose a firmer mattress, and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/best-mattress-combination-sleepers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">combination sleepers<\/a>,&#8221; as they&#8217;re called, will like the feel of a medium-firm mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, think about how you want your mattress to feel. Do you want it to have some bounce, or would you rather sink in? Perhaps you prefer something in the middle. That will determine the type of mattress you might like best.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/innerspring-mattress-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Innerspring<\/a>&nbsp;is, well, &#8220;springy&#8221;; body-contouring&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/memory-foam-mattress-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">memory foam<\/a>&nbsp;is &#8220;huggy&#8221;; and the feeling of sleeping on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/latex-mattress-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">latex<\/a>&nbsp;is often described as &#8220;floaty.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Related:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/choosing-the-right-mattress-for-sleep-position\/\"><em><strong><\/strong>The right mattress for the way you sleep<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The best mattress for couples<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first decision couples face is settling on the right size. Twosomes with limited space and money generally opt for a queen size, whereas those with more space\u2014and a bigger budget\u2014should spring for a king size (so you don&#8217;t have to worry about kicking or elbowing each other).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing to keep in mind if you&#8217;re shacked up: Innerspring,&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/hybrid-mattress-need-to-know\/\">hybrid<\/a>, and latex are the&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/best-mattress-for-sex\/\">best mattresses for sex<\/a>&nbsp;because they allow you to move around easily. These mattresses all sleep cool as well, so you can snuggle up without getting too toasty overnight. Couples should also look for a mattress with good edge support, such as foam-encased rails around the perimeter, so you can comfortably sleep or sit on the edge (and so you don&#8217;t fall on the floor while you&#8217;re getting busy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you and your partner have very different sleep preferences\u2014say, one of you sleeps on your side and one of you sleeps on your stomach\u2014consider putting two twin XL mattresses side-by-side so you can each choose your desired comfort level. An adjustable air mattress, which gives you the ability to adjust the firmness on both sides of the bed, will allow you and your S.O. to keep the peace in bed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

A basic firm or medium-firm mattress is the best choice for youngsters. For growing teens, you may want to opt for a twin XL, which is five inches longer than a standard twin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Related:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/kids-mattress\/\"><em><strong><\/strong>How to choose the best mattress for your child<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The best mattress for highly active people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re an athlete or just really like hitting the gym, the right mattress can go a long way toward helping you&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/best-mattress-for-athletes-and-muscle-recovery\/\">maintain your active lifestyle<\/a>.

That means selecting a softer mattress if you sleep on your side, a medium-firm mattress if you sleep on your back, or a firmer mattress if you sleep on your stomach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to finding the right comfort level, look for added lumbar support in a mattress. This is crucial to avoiding pain that can throw you off your fitness game. You can find lumbar support in the form of reinforced foams in the center third of the mattress or other methods of strengthening the area from your shoulders to hips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you may want to choose a mattress with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva-node-stage.tsc-starts-coding.com\/blog\/cooling-features-in-mattresses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cooling features<\/a>.
