There are countless mattress options out there, but here are the ones you all suggested, plus the ones I found through my own research. I focused on medium(ish) firmness since both my husband and I are combo sleepers and on the smaller side. I was especially interested in hybrids and latex/organic mattresses, so you'll see those featured heavily on this list.
I definitely spent more than I originally planned, but I’m hoping it pays off! 🤞 Our new mattress gets delivered this Sunday—I’ll keep you all posted. Hope this helps someone out there! 😆
Update: After one week on the new mattress, it definitely feels firmer than the floor model, but I've heard latex needs a break-in period. I've been sleeping well, even though it's not immediately as comfortable as I expected. I'm not waking up sweating anymore, and I'm getting deeper REM sleep. The only downside is there's a distinct latex smell right now. I'm hoping it'll fade over the next few weeks!
