Mattress
Reviews & Ratings Summary -- Based on Data From Over 3,100
Owners
When we began
this website, we noticed that there was little quality, well-presented
and unbiased data on mattresses from actual owners.
We set
out to change this because a good bed, of course, is an important
factor in how well you sleep.
About Our Research
The sources for the research data include at least 3,100
reviews / comments of actual bed owners collected mainly
from hundreds of online message boards. (We have invested
over 600+ man hours on gathering data so far.)

Mattress
Comfort Ratings
Below you'll
find a summary of the most important part of our mattress
research: comfort ratings. Keep in mind that the ratings
are for brands, not individual models. (For
both latex beds and waterbeds, brands are grouped into single
categories. The explanation for this is given on their respective
pages.)
IMPORTANT -- The above ratings do not guarantee that
you personally will find a top-rated mattress to be
comfortable and a lower-rated mattress to be less comfortable.
Each individual person is different and has different preferences.
The above ratings represent an aggregate of owner reviews
/ comments and are meant to be one factor to consider when
looking for a bed. You should, of course, test a bed before
purchase to ensure as much as possible that it is right for
you personally.
Supplemental Findings Below is data on mattress brands that do not meet our
research standards because their number of message board reviews
is currently too small to be included with, and compared to,
the mattresses above. However, we provide the limited owner
experience information about them that we have collected because,
for the mattress shopper, having some information is better
than having none.
Message From SleepLikeTheDead.com Publisher Regarding
Main Finding of Mattress Research
Do You Need a New
Mattress -- Or Just a Topper? A
mattress topper can revitalize an old mattress, usually for
just the fraction of the cost of a new bed.
Don't Overlook Your Pillow!
If you are getting a new mattress, you may want to consider
a new pillow. Having a good pillow is just as important (perhaps
more important?) for your comfort as having a good bed.
