To many people, the term ‘luxury’ will mean a mattress that floats like a cloud and is extremely soft. It envelopes you with soft foams and is topped with a wonderfully soft and silky satin-like sleeping surface. To others, it will be a hard mattress that gives them great support and helps keep their spine straight and free from pain. Side sleepers may prefer the former definition and belly or stomach sleepers the latter. If a belly sleeper lies on soft foam, they will tend to sink into the mattress, creating a potentially painful bend in their neck as their head remains stable on the pillow. A firm mattress would be a luxury to them. When a side sleeper lies on a hard, firm mattress, there will be undue pressure applied to their shoulders and hips. A soft, cloud-like mattress would be a luxury to them. That’s why we include both soft and firmer mattresses in our review. Luxury to one is not necessarily luxury to the next person.
