Great for all sleep positions, this editor-favorite Nectar gel memory foam mattress conforms to all of your body's curves, giving you extra support and plush comfort where you need it. "I grew up sleeping on rock-hard mattresses, so I felt dubious about foam options, thinking they would feel too soft and hurt my back. My Nectar has completely changed my mind about this. Now I can't even go back to sleeping on the surfaces I've previously slept on," Senior Commerce Editor Marina Liao says.

If you needed a vote of confidence for this memory foam mattress, know that Deputy Digital Editor Katelyn Lunders has purchased it five times. The zoned pressure relief and green tea memory foam infusion make for an extra refreshing sleep, and it provides extra firm support. "Unlike innerspring or hybrid models, it doesn’t have any bounce back," Lunders says. "This was something I really loved since I had previously only slept on coil spring mattresses, which are uncomfortably unstable in my opinion."

Linenspa's hybrid mattress is a great pick for the sleeper who needs a custom thickness. When you buy this model, you can choose the thickness (eight, 10, and 12 inches) and whether or not you want to throw in a platform bed frame. As its name implies, it's a mix of memory foam and springs, so you get the soft, conforming comfort of the former and the bouncy feel of the latter. The mattress also has a pillow top cover that adds an extra cushy layer.

If you prefer the feeling of sinking into softness at the end of a long day to a firm mattress, this bed-in-a-box could be what you're looking for. The breathable mattress is infused with temperature-regulating bamboo and charcoal to help any night sweats. "The mattress is indeed firmer than expected, which is perfect for my personal preference," one reviewer wrote. "I've noticed a significant improvement in my back pain and overall sleep quality.

For a cooling foam mattress that still carries all the benefits of adaptive foam, go with this editor-loved Tuft & Needle option. The graphite and cooling gel keep hot sleepers comfortable. "I did extensive research to find the best foam mattresses within my price range and landed on Tuft & Needle because it seemed to be a Goldilocks sort of mattress that had a lot of the things I was looking for within the basic model, like cooling technology and motion isolation," Senior Commerce Editor Heath Owens says.

Material: Your preferred type of mattress should be the first thing you look at when shopping for a mattress on Amazon. Because so many Amazon options arrive roll packed at your door, expandable adaptive or memory foam is a pretty common mattress type. Hybrid options that combine the support of coiled springs with the comfort of foam are also available, and might be preferred by side sleepers who need extra support at pressure points.
Sleep Trial: Not every mattress on Amazon comes with a trial period, but for cautious shoppers who don't want to commit just yet, we recommend taking advantage of the ones that do. A few months sleeping on it in your own home and still being able to return it could save you years of headache in the future.
Reviews: Whether it's first-person mattress reviews from the House Beautiful team or external customer reviews, we recommend scoping out the experiences of others who purchased an Amazon mattress before buying one yourself. As a rule of thumb, mattresses ranked at 4.3 or above (like all of the ones on our list) indicate positive customer experiences.
Amazon's vast selection as a retailer includes many trusted sleep brands that our shopping team swears by, including Nectar, Casper and Tuft and Needle. The convenience and variety of shopping on Amazon just can't be beat sometimes, so when we set out to find the best mattresses on Amazon, there were already some editor favorites. We surveyed our team to find the tested picks that stood out, including one mattress our deputy digital editor had bought five times. For the mattresses that didn't directly pass through a team member's hands, we turned to offerings with high-quality materials like adaptive memory foam and thousands of five-star ratings, poring over customer reviews and ratings to find the best of the best.
Yes, it is safe to buy a mattress on Amazon! Several reputable mattress brands like Casper and Nectar operate Amazon storefronts, so you can get the same quality mattresses with more convenience. If you're extra concerned about the safety of your mattress, look for ones that are fiberglass-free, like this Zinus pick, so it remains safe to use over time. In addition, OEKO-TEX and CertiPUR-US certifications protect foam and textiles from harmful chemicals, so mattresses with those seals of approval are even safer.
Yes, you can return a mattress to Amazon, but the return window might change depending on your purchase. Because Amazon is a home for so many different mattress brands, the return policies on different mattresses vary. Easy returns are included in all of the mattresses on our list, but the return window ranges from 30 days to 100 days. Your return can be used for a full refund or a replacement.
The Zinus 10-Inch Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress, with over 110,000 five-star reviews and an average rating of 4.4/5, is one of the most highly rated mattresses available on Amazon. It also comes highly recommended by Deputy Digital Editor Katelyn Lunders, so we're in agreement with the thousands of Amazon customers who've purchase one. Another top-ranked pick on our list is the Linenspa 8-Inch Memory Foam and Spring Hybrid Mattress, a great hybrid alternative to memory foam and it has over 99,000 five-star reviews.
