Our Approach to Mattress Reviews

Data-Driven Testing

All mattresses are tested with a consistent battery of data-driven tests. We conduct 10 individual tests and gather 35 data points on each mattress. Our systematic testing process creates scores, data, photos, and videos that are easily comparable from mattress to mattress. We measure, record, and analyze objective and quantifiable data for each mattress. This helps us create more objective reviews based on data. Where objective analysis isn’t possible, we use highly structured and defined subjective assessment ratings.

Transparent & Fair Scoring

All testing and scoring methodologies are summarily explained within our reviews and tooltips, and fully here. In addition, every best mattress list has a clear set of guidelines we followed to select the winners for that list. Structure, consistency, transparency, and fairness are key to every review, comparison, and best mattress list we create. While many other review sites may choose winners based on who pays them the most, we select winners based on our scores and clearly defined metrics.

No Paid Content

The brands we test cannot pay us to review their mattress, give them a higher score, or buy a top ranking on our best mattress lists. Our scores are derived from our objective, systematic, and data-driven reviews. Our recommendations are based on our scores. The mattresses that earn the highest scores also earn our recommendations. You can see how we make money here and more about our process and disclosures here.
