Casper Wave Hybrid Mattress

Casper’s most supportive mattress boasts an ergonomic design with softer foam near the shoulders and gel pods near the spine to help with alignment, according to the brand. It also offers three layers of foam and a cooling gel layer to help absorb body heat and keep you cool throughout the warm summer nights. The Wave Hybrid is also available with Snow, the brand’s latest technology that claims to offer 50 percent more cooling gel, which might be helpful if you live somewhere with notoriously hot summers.

Brooklyn Aurora Hybrid Luxury Cooling Mattress

As Brooklyn Bedding’s most popular mattress, the Aurora hybrid is available in three levels of firmness and features a 1.5-inch Copper Flex foam — the foam helps contour the mattress to the body while copper boasts antimicrobial properties, according to the brand. It also boasts Brooklyn Bedding’s proprietary cooling technology called TitanCool, which claims to help regulate the body temperature to 88 degrees Fahrenheit. This Mattress is available in 11 sizes and boasts a 4.7-star average rating from nearly 2,080 reviews on Brooklyn Bedding.

Avocado Vegan Mattress

Avocado is currently offering $100 off its Vegan Mattress, which is one of the best eco-friendly mattresses on the market. The mattress, which has a 4.6-star average rating from nearly 800 reviews, has a steel perimeter and up to 1,414 tempered steel coils to reduce motion transfer throughout the night and distribute weight evenly. If you decide it’s not for you or something happens to it, Avocado offers a 1-year trial and a 25-year limited warranty.

Saatva Classic Mattress

With a layer of high-density memory foam for added back support, the Saatva Classic Mattress is a good option for anyone with back issues — according to the brand, it’s even been giving a seal of approval from the Congress of Chiropractic State Associations. It comes in three comfort levels — Plush Soft, Luxury Firm and Firm — and comes with both a 180-day at-home trial and 15-year warranty.

Layla Sleep Memory Foam Mattress

This cooling mattress sports a 3-inch copper gel memory foam layer which offers support and helps your mattress smell fresh throughout use, according to the brand. If you order during the Memorial Day sale, you can score free bedding accessories like a microfiber sheet set, two memory foam pillows and a mattress protector. The Layla memory foam mattress is available in six sizes and the brand offers a 120-night test trial for shoppers, to boot. Layal Sleep advises those who are back and stomach sleepers to rest on the firm side of the mattress while those who are side sleepers can flip it and use the more plush side of the mattress for the best support.

Purple Mattress

Purple’s entry-level mattress is hypoallergenic and it sports a 2-inch breathable layer featuring patented grids that “flex directly under pressure points” like your shoulders and hips, according to the brand. It also features two layers of support: one firm and one plush. The Purple mattress is made in six sizes and boasts a 4.4-star average rating from more than 28,800 reviews on the brand’s site.

The Allswell Supreme

Allswell’s top-of-the-line mattress earned a 4.5-star average rating from more than 350 reviews on the brand’s site. The company asserts that the mattress sports “individually wrapped coils which help minimize motion transfer” while you sleep along with a 2-inch Energex foam for contour support. The Supreme mattress also features a layer of cooling memory foam and a built-in Euro top for added comfort. It is available in six sizes, beginning at Twin and maxing out at California King.

Helix Midnight LUXE

If you and your partner can’t decide whether you want a soft mattress or a firm one, you might enjoy the Helix Midnight Luxe, which the brand says is the perfect combination of the two comfort levels. The brand claims it’s also a good option for side sleepers since it features memory foam that will let you comfortably lay on your hips and shoulders. The mattress has a Tencel cover which can help you stay cool throughout the night, plus more than 1,000 wrapped coils for lumbar, edge and spine support.
