The best memory foam mattresses for a good night’s sleep

It's time to sleep more soundly and wake up feeling refreshed

Over the last decade or so we have seen the growth of memory foam in the form of pillows, toppers and mattresses – and there are many good reasons for its popularity surge to help with a good night’s sleep.

Pressure relief: Memory foam beds can help alleviate pressure on sensitive areas like the hips, shoulders, and neck, this is because the mattress conforms to the shape of your body. This can reduce discomfort and pain and promote better sleep.

Motion isolation: These are great for couples, especially if one person is constantly tossing and turning during the night, as the memory foam isolates motion, meaning the other person is less likely to be disturbed.

Allergy-friendly: If you suffer from allergies or respiratory issues, memory foam may be beneficial to you as it is resistant to allergens like dust mites.

Durability: Memory foam beds can last longer than traditional spring mattresses because they are less likely to sag or develop indentations over time. This means you can get more use out of your bed and potentially save money in the long run.

If you want a better night sleep, reduce pain and discomfort, and improve overall health and well-being, it may be time to change to a memory foam mattress.

To help you pick your new memory foam mattress, we’ve rounded up our top picks below.
