No matter what sleeping positions your partner and you prefer or if you need an upgrade from an old mattress, several key qualities should be kept in mind when buying a couple’s mattress: motion isolation, cooling technology and edge support are among them.
Hybrid mattresses typically offer balanced performance and excellent motion transfer results, making it suitable for couples that sleep differently.
Layla
The Layla mattress is one of the best mattresses for couples, featuring luxurious contouring comfort and pushback support, along with cooling technology built into each layer–such as body heat-wicking graphite, cool gel memory foam and airflow-enhancing patent-pending Ghost Ice fabric that’s soft to touch.
Though not ideal for heavier back sleepers who require deep sinkage, the Layla is still an excellent mattress option. Both its firm and soft sides have excellent motion isolation properties so your partner won’t disturb your rest during the night by tossing and turning. Unfortunately, however, its soft side offers less sinkage which might not suit heavier back sleepers who prefer deeper sinkage.
When it comes to sex, a mattress must be responsive and provide good bounce–the Layla delivers. On both the soft side and firm side it scored 9.2 for sexual responsiveness with memory foam providing responsiveness with its delayed response to movement.
Switch between firm and soft sides easily: simply zip off the cover and flip your mattress! Keep in mind, however, that the Layla comes compressed, rolled up, and boxed so please allow several days for it to fully expand into its final form and take its full shape.
Emma CliMax
The Emma CliMax mattress boasts a hybrid construction consisting of adaptive foam and individually wrapped coils for firm support, perfect for back sleepers. Its supportive layers will maintain the natural “S” curve of your spine to help alleviate lower back pain while its adaptive foam conforms to contour your spine for ultimate relaxation and prevent sinkage that can result in lower back discomfort.
The Emma CliMax mattress is ideal for back sleepers weighing 130 to 300 pounds, though lighter back sleepers may find this bed too firm for their liking. If you lead an active lifestyle involving stretching and movement, however, this could prove too firm of a mattress for you.
Emma CliMax mattresses are also an ideal option for side sleepers, who tend to shift more during their rest than back sleepers. Their responsiveness and ample bounce allow them to easily reposition themselves without feeling stuck or restricted by the mattress’s edges – perfect for couples that use all surfaces of their mattress surfaces together!
The Emma CliMax mattress is an excellent option for stomach sleepers, offering adaptive foam and coil layers that respond quickly, which means you won’t get stuck in one position or another. Furthermore, its pressure relief properties should ensure no discomfort in hips or shoulders.
Helix Midnight
The Helix Midnight mattress is a hybrid option designed to meet the needs of most sleepers. Couples may find this mattress ideal as it offers excellent edge support and motion isolation, two firmness options and soft-to-touch cover made from Tencel fibers derived from eucalyptus that stretch slightly while also allowing airflow, keeping heat at bay in your mattress.
Helix mattress features a 2″ layer of its proprietary memory foam with medium firmness. This layer helps relieve pressure on hips and shoulders while relieving lower back pain. On top of it is a 1″ polyfoam transition layer for ergonomic support that prevents you from sinking into coils below.
Helix mattresses feature individually wrapped coils in their support layer that cradle your body, giving the mattress a bouncy feel that prevents feeling stuck in bed; making it easier to roll over, get in and out, change positions or rollover during sleep. Furthermore, Helix Midnight models boast 1″ of DuraDense foam for additional support that won’t sag over time.
Helix Midnight mattresses come with a 10-year limited warranty that’s only applicable to their original owner, though customer support representatives can assist via phone and email should you need answers or want to return it free within 100 nights if it doesn’t suit.
Saatva
The Tuft & Needle Mint mattress was specifically designed with two sleepers in mind, making it one of the top choices for couples as it helps minimize motion transfer while simultaneously absorbing your movements during the night. Featuring three inches of T&N Adaptive foam that is packed with ceramic cooling gel beads and body heat-wicking graphite to keep sleep surfaces cool; as well as reinforced edge support to help you stretch out and remain asleep on either edge even when moving around during sleep.
Saatva’s Classic Mattress is an innerspring hybrid mattress with luxurious touches. Perfect for combination sleepers, its balance of contouring comfort and pushback support provides optimal restful rest regardless of sleeping position. In addition, this model comes equipped with an ultra soft Euro pillow top for additional softness; plus its organic cotton cover is eco-friendly!
The Classic mattress features tempered steel coils encased in a dual perimeter foam support system to minimize sagging over time and prevent edge roll-off. Furthermore, its high-density foam rails help stabilize edges more securely so you can more easily get in and out of bed each night.
This mattress offers an old-school mattress feel and can withstand even heavier people without breaking. Unfortunately, its delivery takes longer due to being made-to-order; however, free white glove delivery is included!
