Pick the Right Mattress for Your Sleeping Style


Believe it or not, there’s more to picking the ideal mattress than a soft “ride” with firm support at the center. Also take into consideration the way you normally lie on your bed. Different mattresses have their relative strengths and weaknesses depending on if you prefer sleeping on your back, side, or stomach. That’s why Best Buy Furniture’s mattress store keeps a wide variety of constructions and materials available in-store and available to order. No two sleepers are exactly alike. So after you’ve read this overview on sleep posture and its impact on your mattress choice, stop by our store to test-drive a few hybrid mattresses yourself!

Medium Firm Mattress for Back Sleepers

If you’re sleeping flopped out on your back, congratulations! You may not win a cash prize for it, but you are the easiest person to get a mattress for, the sleep experts say. Celebrate your good fortune by investing soundly in a medium-firm mattress in your choice of size. Even our most basic, inexpensive innerspring mattress will do the job if you don’t jump on it (your mom was right) and if you turn it over regularly and replace it every decade. The trick to the right mattress for you is to make sure your spine’s lower indentation, the lumbar curve, is ably supported. We especially suggest you consider a medium-firm mattress made with pocketed coils, a slight expense well worth it, and a firm foam core.

Super-Soft Mattress for Side Sleepers

Okay, you know who you are: you like sleeping on one side! Maybe your sinuses stay open better that way or it just feels good. Well, you’ve got a challenge in picking a good mattress for you. Sleep experts say this position is the hardest for even the best mattresses to adjust to. But don’t despair. There IS a sleep solution for you at Best Buy. Check out our selection of extra-soft latex foam mattresses. These are especially forgiving to the sharp angles such as your elbow that a side sleeper digs into the mattress.

Extra Firm Mattress for Stomach Sleepers

Maybe you’ve slept face down all your life. The trouble with this sleep preference is you’re more liable to suffer back pain. Achy pressure points are another problem you have to factor in when buying your next mattress. That’s why you should opt for something super-firm. Look for tough steel springs and/or high-density foam core mattresses to best suit your posture in bed.

No matter your preferred sleep position, our Philadelphia,PA store has a mattress for you!
