Twin is the smallest among the six standard mattress sizes. Twins offer some benefits that other mattress sizes don't. For one, twin sizes tend to be the cheapest option for any mattress model. Twins also take up the least amount of floor space, making them suitable for people with smaller bedrooms. Our team thoroughly tests each mattress to find the models that are most worth your money. We take comfort, support, and value into account when making these selections. Our testing team includes people across a wide span of weights and sleeper types so that we can provide thorough recommendations for readers. Let's start in this video top five best twin size mattresses. Number one, if the heat trapping of traditional memory foam has steered you away from this mattress type in the past, the Ghost Bed Flex Hybrid will open a whole new world for you. This twin bed mattress is constructed of seven layers gel-infused memory foam, a high-density support layer, a bounce layer, and individually wrapped coils that are wrapped in a cooling cover that has specialized fibers designed to disperse heat and improve airflow. And that's not just some fancy lingo. The mattress really did feel cool to the touch and felt light and fresh every time I got it in. It also gave that sought after zero gravity vibe, which was definitely welcome after a long day of sitting hunched over the computer. I could feel my body relax and I woke up feeling completely refreshed and pain free every morning. Pros It helps cool down hot sleepers. Medium firmness level accommodates all sleeping positions. Fits all body types. Cons It's more expensive than the other beds on our list. Not worth it for people who don't sleep cold. Number two, if you have a tendency to sleep hot, hybrid mattresses are a great choice as the coil layers promote airflow and help to keep temperatures down in the night. And some, like the Brooklyn bedding Aurora Lux hybrid mattress, also feature cooling technology for an even more comfortable night. This mattress has a cooling top weave with a copper infused foam layer beneath it, both of which work effectively to prevent overheating while you sleep. On balance of features to value, we rate this as the best cooling mattress around, although those with a bigger budget should consider the Casper Wave hybrid snow. Number eight, which will deliver more powerful cooling for a price. Between the Aurora's three top layers of foam and its high density base foam, there's a zoned layer of individually wrapped ascension coils delivering support so you don't sink in too deeply and helping with airflow too. The end result is a thoroughly comfortable and supportive mattress that should suit most sleeping styles. You can pick your firmness preference from soft to firm, which means it can be adapted to suit a wide range of sleepers. We tested the middle option, rated four to five, and it was perfect for our petite side sleeping main reviewer. Back or stomach sleepers should consider the firmer option, six to eight. If you're a side sleeper with a preference for something ultraplush, the soft option is the softest mattress on this list, with a rating of two to four. We had a couple of minor complaints that are worth being aware of. The first is that the smooth top weave of this mattress is quite slippery, which means that both you and your fitted sheet may slide around a little. We were also a little disappointed by the motion isolation here, which could make this mattress a hard pass if you share a bed with a restless partner. Pros Great cooling properties Three firmness options available Very comfortable and supportive Wide range of sizes including RV cons slippery top surface A fair bit of motion transfer Our review model had strong off-gassing Number three, the awara is a natural hybrid swapping synthetic memory foam for a layer of natural latex foam and pairing it with organic New Zealand wool a cotton cover and eight inch coils In our tests, we found this mattress provided plenty of comfortable cushioning and would recommend it to all sleeping positions Latex features in almost all of today's best organic mattress options as it delivers similar contouring properties to memory foam It's also super durable, especially done-lop latex, which is the kind used here and apparently better at regulating temperature than memory foam two In our tests, we found it worked nicely with the breathable wool layer and springs to create a comfortably cool sleep surface Although the wool layer provides some cushioning, the sleep feel here is on the firmer, more responsive side That's good news for anyone who wants to be able to move around and change position easily But those with restless partners might be disturbed by their movements as motion isolation isn't the best Lightweight sleepers should also proceed with caution and might get on better with something more cushioned Organic mattresses tend to cost more than non-organic ones, but the awara is one of the most budget-friendly options on the market Generous extras like a 365-night trial, lifetime warranty and free bedding bundle amp up the value further pros suits all sleep styles Very good edge support superb build quality 365-night trial and forever warranty cons weak motion isolation Maybe too firm for lighter sleepers Number four, the nectar premiere hybrid is the fancier sibling of the ultra-popular nectar original With a 13-inch tall design that layers up foams with inner springs and a luxurious Euro top The plush memory foam hugs the sleeper's body, but is balanced by a tear of bouncer active lift foam Which boosts the responsiveness of the surface and stops you from feeling like you're being swallowed by the mattress Nectar says this has a medium firm feel and our testers judged it to be around seven out of ten on firmness We found it most comfortable for side sleeping with ample pressure relief around the shoulders and hips in this position As well as excellent spinal support It'll be too soft for most stomach sleepers the dream cloud number one would make a better choice as it provides firmer support Those who weigh 230 pounds or more should also opt for something firmer if you're well over that check out the wink bed plus number six Perfect for heavier bodies We were impressed by how well this mattress absorbed movements making it a great choice for light sleepers who are easily disturbed by a partner in bed But less enamored with the edge support which was on the weak side As is the case with many hybrid models This mattress regulates temperature well and you shouldn't have issues with overheating when sleeping on it This mattress sits somewhere between the mid-range and upper mid price brackets It's excellent value for that price especially factoring in the extras You have a full year to fully commit thanks to a 365 night sleep trial And there's a forever warranty too Shipping and returns are both free pros promotes great spinal alignment Supportive yet cushioning isolates movements well cons Edge support isn't great Front sleepers may find it too soft Too tall for regular sheets Number five named one of our best memory foam mattress toppers This pick offers the pressure relief side sleeper seat While the two inches of foam won't totally transform your mattress It will add cushioning and help reduce pressure off of key areas that support most of your weight like your hips and shoulders Testors who tried the mattress topper at home reported feeling less hip and back pain after use And several rated this topper highly for its motion isolation and comfortable feel We like that the topper features a non-skid bottom to help it stay in place overnight And a topper cover helps prevent sheets from bunching Just keep in mind that this mattress topper and its cover are not machine washable So you may choose to use it with a mattress protector to protect it from stains and spills pros pressure relieving for areas like shoulders and hips Features non-skid grip Comfortable according to testers Cons Spot clean only Thanks for watching
