Studies show that nearly 74% of people are side sleepers, making it the most popular sleeping position by a wide majority. That being said, side sleepers have their unique set of preferences and needs when it comes to achieving optimal support and comfort.
Our best mattress for side sleepers guide highlights the best-performing mattresses at a range of price points and firmnesses, all designed to meet the specific needs of side sleepers.
With that in mind, let’s get started.

Before we get into the nitty-gritty details of each mattress, let’s talk about firmness. No matter how well each mattress scores in our tests, the reality is that not all firmnesses are suitable for all sleepers.

Most side sleepers need a mattress in the 5-6 out of 10 firmness range, which is between a medium and medium-firm feel. However, many side sleepers will enjoy extra soft (3-3.5) and soft (4-4.5) firmnesses, especially lighter weight sleepers.
Heavier weight side sleepers sometimes prefer a slightly firmer feel (7-7.5), as the extra firmness increases the support, which can help to maintain neutral spinal alignment in heavier weighted bodies.
Side sleepers should avoid firm (8-8.5) an extra firm (9-9.5) feels, as this level of firmness will push the spine out of a neutral alignment, creating pressure point and support issues.
If you are not sure what firmness is best for you check out our deep-dive mattress firmness guide here.
Winkbed Original Hybrid
Best For
- Excellent cooling with a fast response time
- Contouring euro-top cover
- Greater for sleepers of all body types
Quick Specs
- 13.5″ thick with Euro-top
- 120-night trial
- Lifetime limited warranty
- Ranked top 1% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The WinkBed mattress is a hybrid mattress that uses pocketed coils and a layer of gel-infused foam to provide comfort and support, with a Euro top finish.
Winkbed is a fantastic pick for side sleepers thanks, in part, to its plush cover, hybrid support, and exceptional pressure relief. It is also available in three firmness levels. Lighter side sleepers may prefer the soft version, while heavier sleepers would probably opt for the medium firmness.
Overall, the Winkbed generated a score of 9.95, which ranks it in the top 1% among all mattresses we’ve tested. The Winkbed costs $1499 for a queen.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Soft (4), Medium-Firm (6), Slightly Firm (7)
Winkbed Performance
Performance tests on the Winkbed excelled in all areas. It has a thick 14″ profile, which is perfect for side sleepers as there is more material to engage with.
The maximum point sinkage is 2.38″, which is slightly more than the average sinkage among all mattresses tested to date (2.20″).
Despite the plush feel and sinkage, the Winkbed still retains an extremely fast response time and excellent cooling. This is not the kind of mattress that will leave you feeling “stuck”.
While Winkbed is on the higher end of the pricing spectrum, the quality is par-none. With 5″ of comfort material above the coils, Winkbed perfectly caters to side sleepers, keeping the spine in alignment while also providing a deep hug and contour.

Saatva Classic
Best For
- Plush, pillowtop cover with moderate sinkage
- Available in 3 firmness levels
- Exceptional edge support and pressure relief
Quick Specs
- 11.5 or 14.5″ thick with pillowtop cover
- 365-night trial period

Why It’s Best
The Saatva Classic is a coil-on-coil mattress that is available in 3 firmness levels (3.5, 5.5, or 8 out of 10) and 2 thickness options (11.5″ or 14.5″)
This mattress has a fantastic performance score of 9.95 overall, tying it with the top-performing mattresses we’ve tested to date.
The Saatva Classic mattress costs $1495 for a queen, which is on the higher side, but if you’re looking for exceptional pressure relief and support, this mattress is a solid pick for side sleepers.
Type: Coil-on-Coil
Firmness: Extra Soft (3.5), Medium (5.5), Firm (8)
Saatva Classic Performance
The performance of the Saatva Classic was exceptional across the board, scoring perfect 10’s for cooling, extremely fast response time, exceptional edge support, exceptional pressure relief, and virtually zero off-gassing.
With the double coil layer design of the Saatva, there is a fairly high level of bounce (14.67″).
Compared to the average of 9.62″, Saatva is 48% bouncier than the average mattress. Bounce tends to be a preferential factor, but something to consider if you don’t prefer high levels of bounce.
Despite having higher bounce, the Saatva still has moderate levels of sinkage (2.40″) and low levels of motion transfer (5.86 m/s²).
| Factor | Saatva Classic |

| Overall | 9.95 |

Nolah Evolution 15
Best For
- 6″ of comfort material creates exceptional pressure relief for side sleepers
- Excellent cooling performance
- Deep sinkage and hug (2.48″)
Quick Specs
- 15″ thickness + Euro-top
- 120-night trial
- Lifetime limited warranty
- Ranked top 6% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Nolah Evolution 15″ mattress is a high-profile hybrid mattress that uses a blend of poly foam and pocketed coils for comfort and support. It comes in three different firmness levels—plush, luxury firm, and firm.
This is another solid pick for side sleepers. It has a performance score of 9.77 overall, ranking it in the top 5% of all mattresses tested to date. With 6″ of comfort material, the pressure relief on the Evolution is just exceptional.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Soft (4), Medium (5.5), or Firm (8)
Nolah Evolution 15 Performance
Performance of the Nolah Evolution excels in most areas, but especially in response, cooling, and pressure relief.
As mentioned above, pressure relief is critically important to side sleepers. The Nolah has a 6″ comfort layer, which allows for proper spinal alignment and deep compression support.
There’s a deeper level of sinkage (2.48″), but still retains a very fast response time of 0.2 seconds.
Motion transfer is really the only area where the Evolution struggles, charting a max of 11.10 m/s².
As a hybrid, the Evolution is more likely to have higher motion transfer because of the coils. Still, these levels are higher than the average (8.59 m/s² for hybrids, 7.69 m/s² for all mattresses.)
While this isn’t necessarily a problem for all side sleepers, it could be an issue for those who are lighter sleepers or who sleep with active partners.
| Factor | Nolah Evolution 15 |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.77 |
| Max Temp. | 88.6° F |
| Max Sinkage | 2.48″ |

Nest Bedding Sparrow
Best For
- Lifetime Exchange Renewal program provides good value for long term use
- Great pressure relief and comfort for sleepers of all sizes
- Excellent cooling, despite having a pretty significant level of hug and sinkage
Quick Specs
- 12″ thick with quilted cover
- 365-night trial period
- Lifetime limited warranty
- Ranked top 7% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Nest Bedding Sparrow is a high-performing hybrid mattress with a 12″ profile and a quilted cover. It is available in three firmness levels, making it a solid pick for many kids of sleepers.
For side sleepers specifically, I would recommend the Plush or Medium versions. This mattress has a performance score of 9.76, which ranks it in the top 7% of all mattresses tested to date.
It is $1918 for a queen-size mattress, which is a bit beyond the average for other mattresses in this guide. But that being said, the Sparrow’s firmness ranges, lifetime renewal exchange program, and internal firmness split are all compelling advantages.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Extra Soft (3.5), Medium (5), Firm (8)
Nest Bedding Sparrow Performance
The performance of the Nest Bedding Sparrow is great all-around. It scored perfect 10s for extremely fast response time, exceptional pressure relief, and fantastic company policies.
The Sparrow offers a Lifetime Exchange Renewal program, which allows you to swap out the top layer of foam for a different firmness or just a new top layer for free at any point during the life of the mattress.
Sparrow has deeper sinkage (2.70″), but also an extremely fast response time. This provides the contour you need without the fear of being stuck in the mattress.
| Factor | Nest Bedding Sparrow |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.76 |
| Max Temp. | 90.6° F |

Helix Midnight Luxe
Best For
- Plush, pillow-top contour for side sleepers
- Excellent pressure relief
- Great cooling with hybrid design
Quick Specs
- 14″ thick with pillow-top cover
- 100-night trial
- 15-year warranty
- Ranked top 7% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Helix Midnight Luxe mattress is a 14″ thick hybrid mattress with pocketed coils, gel memory foam, and transitional poly foam. It also has an optional cooling cover you can add for $199 for additional cooling performance.
This mattress has a fantastic performance score of 9.76 overall, which ranks it in the top 7% among all mattresses we’ve tested to date.
For side sleepers specifically, the Helix Midnight Luxe is a solid pick as the high performance and pillowtop contour greatly enhance comfort and support when lying on your side.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Medium-Firm (6)
Helix Midnight Luxe Performance
During our testing, the Helix Midnight Luxe performed like a true luxury hybrid. The combination of foam and coil work together to provide a balanced feel with fast response time, minimal motion transfer, and exceptional pressure relief.
It also had good cooling and slightly less sinkage than average (2.15″ on the Midnight Luxe and 2.20″ average across all mattresses tested to date). This gives the Luxe a plush feel without as much of sinking feeling.
Being memory foam, the Midnight Luxe does have less bounce than every other mattress in this “best of” list.
Bounce maxes out at 7.47″ on this mattress, which is 2.15″ less than the average bounce among all mattresses tested to date (9.62″).
That being said, bounce is a preferential factor and, as a side sleeper, you may or may not like a lot of bounce on your mattress.
| Factor | Helix Midnight Luxe |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.76 |
| Max Temp. | 91.0° F |
| Max Sinkage | 2.15″ |

Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid
Best For
- Lightweight side sleepers who want a soft feel
- Fantastic cooling performance
- Excellent pressure relief with 5.0″ of comfort material
Quick Specs
- 14″ with phase change cover
- 120-night trial period
- Lifetime limited warranty
- Ranked top 14% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Amerisleep AS5 is a hybrid mattress with memory foam and pocketed coils. It has a softer feel and would likely be best suited for lightweight side sleepers or moderate-weighted sleepers who prefer a very soft feel.
The AS5 has an overall score of 9.73 and is priced at $2199 for a queen size. Although the price is higher, the AS5 is a true luxury mattress for side sleepers, offering a 14″ high profile, 5″ comfort material, and excellent pressure relief.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Extra Soft (3.5)
Amerisleep AS5 Performance
Performance on the Amerisleep AS5 hybrid mattress is near-perfect in all areas except for motion transfer, where it had slightly more motion transfer than I typically like to see.
In our tests, we measured 9.65 m/s² of acceleration range. This is 1.83 m/s² more than the average level of motion transfer (across all mattresses tested to date).
Aside from motion transfer, the AS5 really excelled with excellent cooling, extremely fast response time, good edge support, and excellent pressure relief.
In terms of feel, the AS5 is going to have a more memory foam feel with moderate sinkage and slight contour when lying on your side, but not as much as you’d get with a eurotop mattress like the Saatva Classic or Helix Midnight Luxe.
| Factor | Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.73 |
| Max Temp. | 87.6° F |
| Max Sinkage | 2.21″ |
| Total Motion Transfer | 9.65 m/s² |
| Response Time | 0.2 sec. |
| Total Bounce | 9.71″ |
| Edge Support – Sitting Sinkage | 4.25″ |
| Edge Support – Lying Support | Excellent |
| Sex Overall | 9.8 |
| Comfort Material | 5.00″ |
| Off-Gassing – Smell | Strong |
| Off-Gassing – Days | 7 days |
| Trial | 100 days |

A Firmer Choice
Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid
Best For
- A firmer feel than the AS5
- Less motion transfer than the AS5—4.46 m/s²
- Excellent edge support
Quick Specs
- 12″ thick with cooling cover
- 100-night trial period
- 20-year warranty
A Medium Version of the AS5
If you like the Amerisleep AS5, but looking for a medium feel, the AS3 hybrid is a nice alternative.
This mattress has a medium feel (5 out of 10 on the firmness scale).
In addition to the increase in firmness compared to the AS5, the mattress also has less motion transfer (4.46 m/s² on the AS3 compared to 9.65 m/s² on the AS5).
Having only 3.0″ of foam atop the coils (instead of 5″ like on the AS5) also gives this mattress better edge support than the softer AS5.
Bear Elite Hybrid
Best For
- Fantastic cooling performance with phase change cover
- 3 firmness options
- 5″ of comfort material
Quick Specs
- 14″ with phase change cover
- 120-night trial period
- Lifetime limited warranty
- Ranked top 14% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Bear Elite hybrid mattress is a 14″ tall hybrid with copper-infused memory foam and a pocketed coil base. This mattress is fantastic for contour and cooling, two very important factors for side sleepers.
For lightweight side sleepers, I would probably recommend the Luxury Soft, and for heavier side sleepers, consider the Luxury Firm. The Luxury Firm would be best suited for back or stomach sleepers in most cases.
This mattress has a fantastic performance score of 9.72 overall, which ranks it in the top 14% among all mattresses we’ve tested to date.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Soft (4.5), Medium-Firm (6), Slightly Firm (7.5)
Bear Elite Performance
Performance on the Bear Elite hybrid is fantastic. The mattress scored perfect 10’s for exceptional cooling, extremely low motion transfer, and extremely fast response time.
The combination of memory foam and poly foam within the comfort layer provides a balanced feel that has contour as well as great support.
The Bear Elite has moderate bounce (10.32″) and moderate sinkage (2.14″). These two factors are a bit more preferential, but still important for many side sleepers.
| Factor | Bear Elite Hybrid |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.72 |
| Max Temp. | 88.4° F |
| Max Sinkage | 2.14″ |
| Total Motion Transfer | 3.74 m/s² |

GhostBed Flex
Best For
- Fast response time, only takes 0.4 seconds to recover
- Excellent edge support
- Fantastic pressure relief, with 3.5″ of comfort material
Quick Specs
- 13″ with quilted cover
- 101-night trial period
- 25-year warranty
- Ranked top 14% of all mattresses tested to date
Why It’s Best
The Ghostbed Flex mattress is a 13″ hybrid with a 1.5″ quilted cooling cover. It uses a combination of memory foam and a latex-like poly foam to achieve a slightly softer feel and less bounce than the GhostBed Classic.
In our performance tests, the GhostBed Flex overall score matched that of the Bear Elite Hybrid. It only comes in a single firmness, unlike the 3 optional firmnesses of the Bear Elite, but the medium-firm feel is suitable for a wide range of side sleepers.
This mattress has a great performance score of 9.72 overall, which ranks it in the top 14% among all mattresses we’ve tested to date.
Type: Hybrid
Firmness: Medium-Firm (6)
GhostBed Flex Performance
Performance on the GhostBed Flex hybrid is fantastic with excellent cooling, very low motion transfer, extremely fast response time, and excellent edge support.
Even when lying directly at the edge of the mattress, there is only 3.25″ of sinkage. The average across all mattresses tested to date is 4.32″.
Motion transfer levels are only 5.61 m/s², which is lower than average—the average amount of motion transfer is 7.82 m/s². For side sleepers, this helps to limit disruptions and keep that spinal alignment.
Moving along, let’s talk about more preferential factors of the GhostBed Flex. This mattress has moderate sinkage (2.15″) and high levels of bounce (10.65″). These two factors are more subjective than the other tests we score for but still worth mentioning in this performance review.
| Factor | Ghostbed Flex |
|---|---|
| Overall | 9.72 |
| Max Temp. | 85.7° F |
| Max Sinkage | 2.15″ |
| Total Motion Transfer | 5.61 m/s² |

Budget Pick
Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid
Best For
- Budgets under $1000
- Available in 3 firmness levels
- Excellent edge support
Quick Specs
- 11″ thick with tufted cover
- 120-night trial period
- 10-year warranty
9.63 Overall Score
The Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid is great for budget side sleepers. It comes in three different firmness levels and a 2.5″ comfort layer.
Although this may not be enough for heavier sleepers, lightweight to moderate-weighted side sleepers should find this to be adequate.
The Signature Hybrid has an extremely fast response, great cooling and edge support, and higher levels of bounce (9.99″ total).
While the score alone excludes this mattress from this “best of” list, its performance / quality relative to price makes it worth the mention.
Mattresses We Considered
When considering the best mattresses for side sleepers we are looking at all mattress types. That said, hybrids or foam mattresses with plusher top layers tend to perform the best for side sleeper needs.
The mattresses listed below were all considered for our best mattress for side sleepers guide. However, we felt that one or more factors held them back. We’ve listed our rationale for why they were excluded below.
- Purple Hybrid, Purple Hybrid Premier 3, Purple Hybrid Premier 4 (9.76-9.84 overall score): While the lineup of Purple hybrids all have great scores, it’s Purple’s specialty material that really drives the price up and makes it difficult to compete with other more affordable mattresses. For these reasons, all Purple Hybrids have been excluded.
- Diamond Flurry Lux (9.84 overall score): The Diamond brand is less well-known. Many sleepers are rightly wary about brands they have not heard of. While Diamond is a large and established company, they aren’t exactly a household name. In general, we try to focus our recommendations around brands that sleepers have a greater familiarity with.
- Douglas Summit (9.84 overall score): Although high scoring, the Douglas Summit is only available in Canada.
- Winkbed Plus (9.82 overall score): Winkbed Plus is designed specifically for heavier weight sleepers. Even there, it’s on the slightly firm side, making it a less-than-great choice for a sizable portion of side sleepers.
- Birch (9.75 overall score): Birch has a great overall score also, but being a latex hybrid with a slightly firmer feel (7 out of 10), I don’t think this mattress is as well suited for side sleepers as the others that have been featured here. For these reasons, Birch has been excluded.
- Elm Sleep Resort (9.75 overall score): Elm Sleep is a newer company that just launched in 2022 and lacks the history of company trust and brand recognition. For this reason, the Resort mattress has been excluded. If it continues to grow in consumer trust it’s possible it could make our best of list at a future date.
- Douglas Alpine (9.72 overall score): Although high scoring, the Douglas Alpine is only available in Canada.
- Helix Plus (9.72 overall score): Same basic justification as Winkbed Plus. While some heavier weight side sleepers may find Helix Plus a good fit, it’s more of a niche pick. Soon we’ll have a dedicated page for the best mattress for heavier weight sleepers.
The scoring cut-off for this category was 9.72. Any mattresses that scored below this threshold were excluded based on performance alone.
| Mattress | Score | Excluded For |
|---|---|---|
| Purple Hybrid | 9.84 | Specialty + Price |
| Diamond Flurry Lux | 9.84 | Consumer Awareness |
| Douglas Summit | 9.84 | Canada Only |
| Winkbed Plus | 9.82 | Specialty + Duplicate Brand |
| Purple Hybrid Premier 4 | 9.81 | Specialty + Price |
| Purple Hybrid Premier 3 | 9.76 | Specialty + Price |
| Birch | 9.75 | Firmness |
