Your ultimate 2025 guide to buying the perfect mattress in Canada
The Curator independently decides what topics and products we feature. When you purchase an item through our links, we may earn a commission. Promotions and products are subject to availability and retailer terms. If you're on the hunt for that perfect mattress, you'll know that gone are the days where an innerspring mattress was your only option—today, you can choose from innerspring, foam (including memory foam, polyfoam, latex foam, or a combination) or hybrids (a combination of innerspring and foam). And there are many features to consider. From the level of firmness, to motion transfer, to cooling technology and materials, to the type of support it offers—even whether it arrives packed in a relatively small package or is organic; you can rest assured, there is likely an option for you (and often, a generous trial period to ensure you're happy with the results, long-term). To help you choose, we looked for a variety of options (all but one in Queen size), with specific considerations in mind. Here are our top picks. Story continues below advertisement Best mattress overall The S&S Organic Mattress While no mattress is perfect for everyone, ultimately, choosing the right mattress for you comes down to finding the one that optimizes while offering the right amount of support. We think silk&snow's Organic Mattress in Medium-Firm has plenty to offer here. The hybrid innerspring and foam mattress is made with a high quality organic-certified materials and features a latex foam layer and durable pocketed spring coils, offering a responsive feel without the sinking feeling of traditional memory foam. We like the medium-firm option (noted as a ⅝) for its plush comfort and firm support, but you can also choose from two other firmness options (plush and firm) to find the exact right mattress for you. To help you feel confident in your choice, silk&snow offers a very generous one-year trial period, a 15-year warranty, and free shipping and returns. And includes a free gift of two eco soy pillows (a $400 value). As a bonus, it's Canadian-made, so you know you're supporting the local economy with this purchase. $1,400 at silk&snow Best budget mattress Zinus Queen Mattress If your budget for a new mattress is below $500, there are plenty of options that still offer quality and comfort. Our top pick in this category is the Zinus Queen Mattress. It's another hybrid option that gets the balance right between support and comfort. The individually-wrapped coils are topped with a green tea cooling gel memory foam to help limit motion transfer for those who cosleep and it can support a maximum weight of up to 500 lbs, depending on which size of mattress you choose. The mattress now arrives in a smaller box to help reduce the package carbon footprint but may take between 24-72 hours to expand to its original shape. The mattress comes with a 10-year limited warranty. $292.16 on Amazon (was $317.68) Story continues below advertisement Best mattress for hot bodies Helix Moonlight Luxe 13 Because innerspring mattresses offer support through coils rather than foam, in general, these types of mattresses are more breathable and therefore more cooling for those who run hot. Still, if you don't want to sacrifice comfort that foam often brings, we like this Helix Moonlight Luxe 13' hybrid option. The mattress combines the best of both worlds, and incorporates breathable and cooling technologies to help dissipate heat and help you stay cool and comfortable as you sleep. The pocketed coils help the air move through and away from the mattress, while the gel-infused memory foam helps regulate heat. The Tencel cover offers breathability, drawing moisture away. $3,300 at Wayfair Best for co-sleepers Brooklyn Bedding 12-inch Medium-Firm Copper Infused Infused Memory Foam Mattress For those who share their sleeping space (either with littles or partners – or both), you'll want to prioritize a mattress with motion isolation. We like the Brooklyn Bedding 12' Medium-Firm Copper Infused Memory Foam Mattress for its motion transfer-minimizing design, but also because it's packed full with other great features. It too offers great heat regulation, targeted lumbar support, while its materials include natural antimicrobial properties, and a VariFlex IQ Memory Foam that provides tailored support. $1,270 at Wayfair Story continues below advertisement Best organic mattress The S&S Organic Mattress If having organic materials is a priority, you can't go wrong with silk&snow's Organic Mattress in Plush. It is made with high quality GOLS–certified organic latex, a breathable GOTS-certified organic cotton cover and GOTS-certified wool quilt layer, which behaves like a natural fire retardant, eliminating the need for synthetic alternatives. The latex is made using the Dunlop method, as opposed to other synthetic blends, offering a responsive feel, without the sinking feeling of traditional memory foam. The highly-rated and reviewed mattress comes with eight layers to optimize your comfort and, as with the other Organic mattress option, includes a free gift of two eco soy pillows (a $400 value), a one-year trial period, 15-year warranty, free shipping and returns and is made in Canada. $2,200 at silk&snow Best for side sleepers The S&S Mattress Side-sleepers typically want cradling support in different areas compared to their back- or stomach-sleepers counterparts, and for this, silk&snow's Original Plush Mattress delivers. The mattress provides a plush, cloud-like feel to contour to your body and alleviates pressure on key areas. It also minimizes motion transfer while the top antimicrobial cover is easy to remove and wash. It features a cooling 2' gel-infused memory foam, and comes with a free sleep bundle (cotton fitted sheet and pillowcase set, microfibre duvet, microfibre pillows, and mattress protector) – a $550 value. As with other silk&snow mattresses, it's made in Canada, there is a generous one-year trial period, 15-year warranty and free shipping and returns. $1,050 at silk&snow Story continues below advertisement Best for stomach- and back-sleepers Leesa Sapira 11-inch Medium Hybrid Mattress Stomach sleepers, like side-sleepers, want cushioning and support in key areas, without the stiffness. For this reason, the award-winning Leesa Sapira Hybrid is a good option. It is made with a dense memory foam (4 pounds per cubic foot) that conforms to your body with its thicker-than-average cover. Interestingly, the Sapira actually also works well for back-sleepers too. It provides advanced support with more than 1,000 individually-wrapped coils, and is made with premium foam that features air channels geared towards optimizing airflow. It is made in the United States with quality materials that are GREENGUARD GOLD – and CertiPUR-US-certified as low Volatile Organic Compounds and free from harmful chemicals. Additionally, the company is socially conscious, donating thousands of its mattresses to shelters and those in need. $3,000 at Wayfair You may also like: Kitsch Satin Pillowcase – $25.99 Utopia Bedding Bed Pillows – $33.99 Story continues below advertisement Deep Sleep Pillow Spray 75 ml – $48.19 Best memory foam mattress Leesa Original Cooling Memory Foam Mattress If you're looking for a memory foam mattress option, Leesa offers another great, fan-favourite: the Original Cooling Memory Foam Mattress. It lands the balance between soft and firm, is aimed at alleviating back pain, and it boasts the same clean and green standards of the Sapira. $1,494 at Article (was $1,569) Best value hybrid mattress The S&S Hybrid Mattress The S&S Hybrid Mattress in medium-firm is our pick for a best value hybrid option, employing a combo of high-density memory foam and upwards of 1,200 pocketed coils made with Canadian steel (though all S&S mattresses are Canadian-made). The mattress is a solid option for those who tend to roll around while they slumber, offering cushioning for support no matter if you sleep on your sides, stomach or back. Made with antimicrobial material, the cover is breathable, while the extra firm edge helps maintain the mattress's structural integrity. Additional layers offer cooling, deep pressure relief and lumbar support. $1,000 at silk&snow Story continues below advertisement Best mattress for baby Newton Baby and Toddler Crib Mattress And let's not forget the wee ones in your life. Finding the perfect mattress for baby can be an overwhelming process, especially when considering babies' unique needs, centred on safety and breathability. For these reasons, we really like the Newton Baby Crib Mattress. The brand says it's the only crib mattress that features a Wovenaire breathe-thru core, reducing the risk of suffocation and overheating. It fits standard-sized cribs, and comes with a removable, washable cover. You can even wash the inside core by simply spraying it in the shower or tub, should the need arise. Additionally, it's GREENGUARD GOLD certified and non-toxic, and meets all ASTM firmness standards for growing bones, so everyone can sleep better – including the caregivers. $459.99 on Amazon Best sofa bed Sven Tufted Sofa Bed in Napa Charcoal Sometimes you want the function of a sofa served with the side benefit of bed. For this, the fine folks at Article have created the Sven Sofa Bed, based on the popular Sven Sofa. It comes in a variety of colours, including in 'performance fabric,' made to be durable yet beautiful. You can seamlessly incorporate the bed in with the rest of your furniture, and simply pull it out when the need arises. Gone are the days when you had awkward (and uncomfortable) spring-based sofa beds. The seat cushions in the sofa easily unfold for a comfortable sleep. $2,199 at Article Story continues below advertisement Best mattress topper Tempur-Cloud 2-inch Mattress Topper If you're not quite ready to say goodbye to your existing mattress, but know it could be better, a mattress topper may be the solution for you. The options are as wide and varied as the mattresses themselves, but we recommend the Tempur-Cloud 2-inch Mattress Topper as a happy compromise between quality and cost, extending your mattress's lifespan. It aims to reduce tossing and turning by cushioning the pressure points of your body so you can get restful sleep. Made with the same trademark TEMPUR memory foam material found in its mattresses. As with those, you can expect reduced motion transfer, so if you share your bed, you'll be less aware of it. The topper comes in a hypoallergenic, washable cover featuring its Safe-Guard Technology. $481.77 on Amazon Best mattress for back pain Tempu Adapt Teal Mattress in Medium Back pain sufferers know the sweet relief that can come with stretching out on a good mattress. For that, we like Tempur-Pedic's Temptu Adapt Teal Mattress in medium firmness. While not everyone loves the sinking feeling that is this brand's trademark, for those who do, this model offers medium-firm support that helps alleviate pressure on key areas and help maintain spine alignment. $4,274 at Sleep Country (was $5,699) Story continues below advertisement Best mattress in a box The Endy Mattress Another Canadian-made option, the Endy Mattress is the brand's hallmark and great all-around mattress for those who're looking for a boxed delivery. It offers plenty of cushioning with its machine-washable micro-quilted cover, pressure relief and good edge support – all while helping control airflow and temperature. There is minimal motion transfer as well, so if you share your bed with others, you won't be awake every time someone tosses and turns. You can choose your optimal level of firmness with this model as well. Oh, and it also offers a hard-to-beat price point, 100-night sleep trial, and a free limited edition sleep set (valued at $640). $895 at Endy You may also like: Olly Sleep Gummy Supplement – $15.97 Sleep Oral Strips – $19.98

EGOHOME Black 12" Memory Foam Mattress review 2025: affordable support for all sleep positions
EGOHOME is an affordable mattress brand that has only recently been brought to my attention. While I often get to test some ultra-luxurious mattresses created by premium brands that appear in the ultimate best mattress guide, I also feel it's important to try the offerings of lesser-known, more budget-friendly brands — and Amazon stalwart EGOHOME fits that bill. I'm always on the look out to add low-cost beds to 2025's best cheap mattress guide, and I felt that the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress may just be a contender. So, I got myself a full-size and slept on it for over three weeks. You'll find my full review further down the page, but if you're in a hurry here's my review in brief of the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress... Type: Memory FoamMaterials: gel-infused foam, copper-infused foamFirmness: Medium-firm (7.5/10)Height: 12'Trial Period: 100 nightsWarranty: 10 yearsPrice: From $289 (MSRP $449) at EGOHOME As the name suggests, the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress is a 12"-tall memory foam bed. While the Black 12" Mattress does come in a hybrid version, I tried the cheaper, softer all-foam version to suit my side-sleeping style and preference for plusher mattresses. The EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress is designed to give a softer feel for side sleepers and anyone who struggles with joint or back pain. It uses "copper and graphene technology" for temperature regulation. The brand describes the all-foam version as delivering a "gentle hug" and providing stable support, while the fiberglass-free inner cover provides fire protection without the risk of skin irritation or breathing problems. I'm primarily a back and side sleeper, but I also rested on my stomach while testing the Black 12" Mattress to find out whether it suits all sleep positions. And you know what? This is one of those rare mattresses that supports all sleep styles. The memory foam is ultra body-cradling, but it also has a firmness that means there's enough support around the hips and lower back. My shoulders were hugged when I slept on my side, while I never felt my hips were dipping when I slept on my back. Not once throughout the testing period did I wake up with aches or pains. I also tried resting on my stomach (I use the word "resting" instead of "sleeping" because front sleeping will never feel natural to me) and my hips were supported, too. This gives it an edge over one of our favorite stomach sleeper mattresses, the budget-friendly Siena Memory Foam Mattress. While the Siena only impressed our front-sleeping testers, the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress covers side and back sleepers, too. Overall, I rate the mattress a medium-firm 7.5/10 on the firmness scale (10 being the firmest). The EGOHOME didn't impress me in all departments, however. Despite boasting an "anti-heat" graphene and heat-dissipating "CoolFlex Foam", the mattress's cooling properties were disappointing as I felt that the foam trapped a lot of body heat on hot, humid nights. The slow-moving foam also meant the mattress could be a little stuffy and difficult to change sleep positions on. Plus, while I definitely feel a lot of side sleepers will love the shape-molding comfort and medium support of the Black 12" Mattress, I would have really loved there to be more softness and cushioning (the kind seen in the best pillow top mattresses) for my lightweight frame. However, in other arenas, the mattress performed very well. The slow-moving foam meant the motion isolation was faultless, so restless sleepers won't have to worry about waking up their partners. Edge support was also impressive, with the edges strong enough for sitting and getting in and out of bed. When judging this mattress, I always kept in mind the price, and this mattress certainly brought good quality for such a low cost. Frequent mattress sales mean you'll always pay less than $400 for a queen, and you'll also get 100 nights to try out the EGOHOME Black 12" to see if it's right for you. The EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress costs $369.99 for a queen after a consistent 47%+ discount, but the price drop varies between sizes. For instance, a twin is often 35% off but a king is usually 37% off. Here's the MSRP and usual sale price of each size: A current promo code, SAVEVIP, takes an extra 10% off your order and reduces a queen to $333. You can always get an extra 10% off the Black 12" bed, the only difference is that the code changes. For example, the previous code was HONOR10, so check the EGOHOME homepage for the code name before heading to the checkout. When buying directly from the brand's website, you'll get a 10-year warranty, a 100-night sleep trial to try out your new bed, and free shipping. Honestly, a 100-night sleep trial and a 10-year warranty is pretty standard in the mattress sphere, but it's still plenty of time to literally sleep on your purchase and get your coverage. (It takes up to 30 nights to know if a mattress is the one for you, and you shouldn't be keeping your mattress beyond 10 years anyhow.) Beyond its own site, EGOHOME has become a big seller at Amazon. You can currently buy a queen EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress for $329.99 at Amazon, which is cheaper than buying directly from the brand but won't include a 100 night sleep trial or a 10-year warranty. EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress: twin was $442 now $261 with code SAVE10 at EGOHOME This mattress is up to 47% off plus an extra 10% off, taking a queen to $333 (MSRP is $699). There's also extras including 100 nights to try out the mattress before deciding whether you'd like to return, a 10-year warranty, and free shipping within one to two business days. Standing a foot tall, the US-made EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress features an all-foam construction made up of three layers: a copper-infused layer of memory foam, a cooling gel-infused layer of memory foam, and a supportive base layer of high-density foam. The layers are wrapped in a bacteria-resistant "Anti-heat" graphene cover, and a fiber-glass-free inner cover supplies a safer flame retardant. There is no pillow top. The bed is relatively lightweight, weighing just 60lbs for a queen. There are no handles for maneuvering the bed, but this isn't really a concern when you consider how light the mattress is. Although EGOHOME rates the Black 12" bed as soft and a mattress that's ideal for side sleepers, I'm more inclined to say it's medium-firm and ideal for pretty much any sleep position. The memory foam molded to my shoulders whenever I slept on my side, but the high density of the support foam had enough firmness to support my lower back when back sleeping and my hips when lying on my stomach. The Black 12" mattress is honestly the first bed I've ever tested that supports and caters to every sleep style. I also ran some subjective tests to measure its comfort and support by placing a 56lb weight on the surface, and I found that it created a 3.5" dip — indicating excellent pressure relief. However, while it no doubt molded to my shape, it didn't provide a plush or cushioning surface (as odd as that sounds, considering its sink-in feel). It also could be stuffy and difficult to move around on, which may pose a problem to combination sleepers who often change position throughout the night. Score: 4 out of 5 Just like the beds you'll find in our guide to the best mattresses in a box, the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress was delivered rolled up and vacuum packed in a cardboard box straight to my doorstep. I've seen a lot of mattress shipping boxes arriving torn and battered, exposing the mattress inside, but the EGOHOME's box arrived intact. It took two people to get the box up the stairs to my bedroom (which is normal and strongly recommended if you want to avoid injury), but once they propped the box on my bed frame, I was able to unbox the mattress by myself. Usually, I recruit another person to help me unbox a mattress, as it can be arduous work – especially as the previous mattresses I tested were hybrids, which tend to be heavier than other kinds – but in this case the relative lightness galvanized me into doing it myself. For example, the last mattress I unboxed weighed a 103lbs in a full size, while the EGOHOME weighed just 53lbs, making the unboxing process an absolute breeze even when doing alone. As soon as I cut the mattress free from the plastic, it began to expand almost to its full shape. After just 20 minutes, it had reached an 11" height. EGOHOME advises leaving it to expand for 12 to 48 hours before sleeping on it but, I found that it had reached its 12" height way before the 24 hours was up. I didn't detect any off-gassing after unboxing, even though I kept my bedroom door and windows shut. Score: 5 out of 5 I slept on a full size EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress for over three weeks, and here's how it performed in all the categories covered by our mattress testing methodology... The EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress impressed me during the motion isolation tests, which involve placing a glass on one side of the bed and dropping a 10lb weight four, eight, and 12 inches away to simulate someone getting in and out of bed. I then observed how the glass reacts to the drop to gauge whether or not the mattress is good at prevent a person's movements from transferring to another person's side of the bed. At every distance, the glass remained upright and barely wobbled (usually, the glass falls over during the four-inch distance test), indicating excellent motion isolation for bed-sharing couples. Score: 5 out of 5 The EGOHOME website's description of the Black 12" Mattress makes the bed sound as if it offers the same cutting-edge cooling tech as the best cooling mattresses, boasting of its "CoolFlex Foam" and "Anti-heat" cover. Initially, I slept comfortably. The mattress wasn't cool to the touch, but it wasn't warm either. However, then came the beginning of the humid summer weather, and that's when I found the temperature regulation to be sub-par. The foam retained heat, and I often felt stuffy despite the fact that I'm not typically a hot sleeper. While I should point out that my apartment doesn't have air conditioning, I still don't recommend this mattress to anyone who regularly experiences night sweats or lives in a hot or humid climate. Score: 3.5 out of 5 It's often overlooked, but a bed's edge support is important to test as it can tell you whether the edges are strong enough to sleep or sit on without feeling as if you're sinking or going to roll out of bed. Strong edge support is also important if you have mobility issues, as you need stable edges to help you get in and out of bed with ease. To test the edges, I frequently sat on the sides and foot of the beds, such as when getting dressed or taking off my shoes. With previous mattresses I've tested, I often found the sides to be strong but the foot of the bed to be weak and quicksand-soft, often making me dip every time I sat down. However, the Black 12" Mattress kept me well supported whether I sat on the sides or the foot of the bed, and the subjective tests reflect this. When I placed a 56lb weight on the side of the mattress and foot of the bed, I recorded the same measurement: a sink just under 2.5". Score: 5 out of 5 One person's experience with a mattress will obviously differ to another person's experience, so I scoured the web for online reviews from verified customers to see if their views align with mine. The issue is that the online reviews for the all-foam model on EGOHOME's site are mixed together with the reviews of the hybrid model, so it's hard to tell which model each customer is talking about. There are over 150 reviews for the Black 12" (both all-foam and hybrid), with over 130 of those reviews rewarding 5 stars. The consensus is that the mattress is great for preventing shoulder, back, and joint pain, which lines up with my view, but many customers actually found this mattress to sleep cool. (Though bear in mind that hybrids do tend to sleep cooler than all-foam models.) On Amazon the EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress scores 4.4 out of 5 on the basis of over 1,600 reviews; 72% of them are five-star reviews while 17% give it three stars or less. Positive reviews praised its comfort, quality and value for money, while less impressed customers pointed out its heat retention and complained about a lack of durability as well as back pain after sleeping on the mattress. The EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress is an impressive mattress, especially when you consider it's usually under $400 for a queen. It supports basically any sleep position and isolates motion well, making it one of the best medium-firm mattresses for couples with different sleep styles who don't want to be woken up by each other's tossing and turning. Its edge support is consistent, too, so you can sit on the edges without feeling as though you're sinking, sleep close to the edges without feeling you're going to roll out of bed, and get in and out of bed with ease. While this mattress does not feel luxurious or plush in the slightest, the build is still of excellent quality and the fiberglass-free materials means your sleeping in safe hands. However, anyone who experiences night sweats or lives in a hot climate should note that this all-foam bed does have a tendency to trap heat. The Siena Memory Foam Mattress is one our highest-rated picks if you're looking for a mattress on the budget. While it isn't soft enough for side and back sleepers, the Siena does have an advantage over the Black 12" Mattress in that it sleeps incredibly cool. The Siena is also under $400 for queen and comes with a 180-night sleep trial as oppose to EGOHOME's 100-night trial. Learn more in our Siena Memory Foam Mattress review. The Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress is ideal for side sleepers thanks to its excellent pressure relief, and we reccomend it as one of the best memory foam mattresses on the market. Like EGOHOME's Black 12" Mattress, it's fiberglass free and a popular choice on Amazon, but it may be too soft for back and front sleepers. Learn more in our Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress review. The Cocoon by Sealy Chill impressed us in the department in which the EGOHOME let us down: temperature regulation. The Chill is, like the EGOHOME, and all-foam budget-friendly bed, only it is a specialist cooling bed. However, the specialist cooling tech does hike up the price to $699 for a queen, but it's worth it if you want to keep night sweats at bay. Learn more in our Cocoon by Sealy Chill Mattress review

Dusk's bestselling mattress that ends back ache is now £230 off
Plus, there's a mystery discount at checkout with a special code While it's fun to switch up your space with a new bedding set, investing in the proper sleep setup is crucial. We're talking supportive memory foam pillows, a cosy topper and a mattress that actually supports the spine. That's why this deal from Dusk, my favourite homeware brand, caught my attention: one of its top-rated hybrid memory foam mattresses is now £349 from £579 for a double - saving shoppers £230. Even better, popping in the code REVEAL at checkout will unlock a mystery discount, dropping the price even lower. With a 4.92-star average rating and over 730 five-star reviews, this mattress is clearly making a difference. One happy sleeper even wrote: "I was getting back aches every morning, which have now gone. Thank you." The medium/firm mattress features four premium layers, including plush memory foam and individually wrapped heat-tempered pocket springs for extra support. The outer layer is soft, knitted and removable - ideal for tossing in the wash. It also comes vacuum-packed for easy delivery (no awkward stair battles) and includes a 100-night sleep trial, allowing shoppers to test it out thoroughly. Dusk also offers a mattress recycling service for £30, which can be added at checkout - perfect if the current mattress has seen better days. Shop the range Prices vary Dusk Buy Now on Dusk Product Description For shoppers willing to splurge, Simba is another excellent mattress option. Its bestselling Hybrid Mattress has racked up over 100,000 five-star reviews for its 'supportive' five-layer design. Emma Sleep is another option. Its Hybrid Premium Mattress features three layers of advanced foam, each designed to enhance sleep by increasing breathability, evenly distributing weight and minimising movement. The majority of Dusk reviews are positive. One person said: "I struggle with a spinal issue, and I was very sceptical about buying a memory foam bed as sometimes it can make it worse, but this medium/firm mattress has been an absolute godsend. It's soft enough that it's very easy to get super comfortable in, however firm enough that it gives great support. My only struggle now is having to get out of it to go to work." A second chimed in: " Great mattress, haven't had any issues and have been using for a few months now. It supports me and offers a great night's sleep. Best mattress I've bought in a long time." However, they added: "It did take a couple of days to decompress, so I would recommend setting up a few days before you want to use it." Another happy shopper said: "The mattress is amazing. It is the best night's sleep I have had in months." But they had a similar complaint to the previous user: "You need to leave it for a few hours to inflate properly, and be warned it is very heavy." Meanwhile, another shopper added: "It always feels dubious purchasing a mattress online without trying it first, but I am so pleased we chose this one. It is the perfect balance of firm yet soft, feeling very luxurious without the price tag. We've both slept like babies since we got it. Very happy and well rested."

I'm sleeping on Amazon's best-selling EGOHOME Memory Foam Mattress — here's what I think so far
Every time I scroll through Amazon looking for mattress deals, l always find plenty of low-cost memory foam beds from brands that I've never heard of at prices that seem too good to be true. One budget-friendly mattress brand that has been on my radar recently is EGOHOME. Its memory foam mattresses are Amazon bestsellers, and you can now buy a queen-size EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress for $314.49 at Amazon. Intrigued, I visited the brand's website, where you can now save up to 47% on the Black 12" Mattress with code HONOR10 at EGOHOME, thanks to an extended Memorial Day mattress sale. After reading the description of the Back 12" Mattress's "plush, cradling comfort", I decided to try it out. So, does its comfort deserve a place in our best cheap mattress guide? Read on to find out what I thought after a week of testing, and stay tuned for the full review... Look through this year's best mattress guide and you'll find plenty of top-quality memory foam mattresses, but not many are as affordable as EGOHOME's mattress line-up. The Black 12" Mattress is the brand's most popular model and typically costs under $500 for a queen. While EGOHOME also makes some popular hybrid mattresses, I wanted to try the all-foam version of the Black 12" Mattress as A) it's designed to be softer than its hybrid counterpart, and I prefer plush beds; and B) I've never slept on a memory foam bed, just latex, hybrid, and classic innerspring mattresses. EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress: queen was $699 now $333 with code HONOR10 at EGOHOMEWhile you can expect to find monthly mattress sales at EGOHOME, their Memorial Day sale has been extended and you can now get up to 57% off a queen, reducing it to $333 with code HONOR10. Alternatively, you can currently buy a queen Black 12" Mattress for $314.49 at Amazon, but you won't get the benefits that you get when buying directly from the brand: a 100-night sleep trial and an 10-year warranty. The 12" Black Memory Foam Mattress is, you guessed it, 12" tall and made up of three foam layers. Covering the layers is a graphene-infused, antibacterial cover to prevent odors and keep the surface cool. The top layer is memory foam infused with compressed anti-microbial copper and gel particles for a more hygienic sleep surface. In the middle, you'll find a heat-dissipating foam layer for temperature regulation, while the bottom layer uses high-density foam for more support. The EGOHOME mattress is fiberglass-free, too, using a safer flame retardant inner cover. Is it a contender for our best mattresses on Amazon guide? Here's what I think so far... After a week of sleeping on a full EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress, I was impressed with some of its features, but I also have the odd complaint. Here are five of the initial thoughts I have had about the budget all-foam bed: As a lightweight side sleeper, I find a lot of mattresses to be much firmer than they claim to be. That's why I was looking forward to testing an all-foam bed, especially one that promises ultra-plushness. I'm pleased to say that the EGOHOME Black 12" delivers on that promise. My key side-sleeping pressure points (such as my shoulders and hips) have been cradled and hugged by the memory foam from night one, making the mattress a strong contender for a place in our best mattress for side sleepers guide. As a mattress tester, I've unboxed a dozen hybrid mattresses — and they can be a mighty pain to unbox due to their bulkiness and weight. However, a full-size EGOHOME Black 12" Mattress was surprisingly light, weighing in at 53lbs. (The previous mattress I tested weighed 103lbs.) While I did need to recruit two people to carry the box upstairs (boxed-up mattresses are heavy, period, no matter their design), I unboxed the mattress by myself and it was incredibly easy. EGOHOME advises customers to wait 12-48 hours for the mattress to expand on your bed frame, so I braced myself for two nights of sleeping on the floor. However, the mattress was pretty quick to expand, reaching a height of 11" just 20 minutes after unboxing. After one night of sleeping on the floor, I found that the bed had reached its full 12" height, so I was sleeping on the mattress by night two. While I've tried plenty of the best mattress toppers (all memory foam), nothing quite braced me for the feel of an all-foam mattress. I will admit it did take me to get used to the "hug" of the memory foam — but not while sleeping. I only felt the slow-moving feel of the foam when I had to move around, such as when moving across the mattress to get out on the other side of bed. A fellow mattress tester once called a memory foam mattress (from a well-known brand that shall remain nameless) that she was testing "claustrophobic" and couldn't wait to get rid. While I'm used to it after a week, I know a lot of sleepers prefer a bouncy bed and find memory foam too restrictive. Despite the mattress having a cover made from the brand's "Anti-heat Graphene" fabric, I do not find the bed to be cooling. In fact, on the first humid night of testing I woke up feeling warm. (For the record, I do not usually sleep hot). While during milder weather I sleep fine, I will definitely be using my Brooklyn Bedding Luxury Cooling Mattress Protector once testing is over. ✅ It's cost-effective: A queen size EGOHOME is regularly priced under $500, with a twin under $300. ✅ It's easy to set up: Its manageable 53lbs weight means unboxing is pretty easy for one person. ✅ Its perfect for side sleepers: I need a lot of softness when side sleeping, and this is the first mattress I've tested that has provided me with the right amount of pressure relief. ❌ It sleeps a little warm: Despite an "anti-heat" cover, I did find the cover to retain a lot of warmth on humid nights. Once the testing period is over I'll add a cooling mattress protector or topper to offset this. ❌ It's not for those who prefer firmer beds: As a side sleeper under 130lbs, I love the cradling softness of this all-foam bed. But stomach sleepers and those who like a firmer, supportive mattress should avoid.
