Listen, innerspring mattresses def have a time and place, but as a strict side sleeper, I personally like a soft mattress that lets me sink into layers of plush, cushy comfort. And if sleeping "in" your bed rather than "on" your bed appeals to you, it's time to get yourself a quality foam mattress. Because the construction is relatively simple, all-foam mattresses tend to be cheaper than hybrid mattresses, which combine springs with thick foam comfort layers. And since they're easily compressed and rolled, it's super easy to order foam mattresses in a box online. Score!!
So...is a foam mattress the right fit for you? As certified sleep science coach David Rubin previously told Cosmo, foam mattresses are a good pick for those "who experience pain points around the hips and shoulders," since they offer A+ contouring and pressure relief (not to mention great motion isolation for couples who are easily disturbed by tossing and turning). And while all-foam models tend to work best for strict side sleepers, there are firmer options that back and stomach sleepers will also appreciate. Below, a sneak peek at our faves (which, btw, are all made with CertiPUR-US certified foams, meaning they’re free of harmful chemicals and additives).
Our top picks for the best foam mattresses of 2023:
Read on for the best foam mattress options for every type of sleeper, as well as tips to keep in mind while shopping for an all-foam mattress. And just a head's up: The prices listed are for queen-size mattresses, though these options all come in other sizes as well.
