11 Best Memory Foam Mattresses That'll Support Your Dreams and Your Back

The Emma Hybrid Comfort memory foam mattress is perfect for side sleepers. Its super plush design includes four thin top layers of foam to help regulate temperature and mold to your body shape, followed by a layer of pocket springs and one last stabilizing layer of foam. At 13" tall, the mattress gives you added height, and makes you feel like you're sleeping on a fluffy cloud. My hips have never been happier.

Glowing Customer Review: "Wow, excellent product and great service and excellent quality made for the best price. This is what everyone should be sleeping on."

The Dreamfoam Essential is one of the most versatile memory foam mattresses, as it comes in a variety of sizes, thicknesses, and firmness options. Depending on the combo you pick, the price can vary from $274-1,149, so you can make your bed fit your budget. Mattresses 6"-10" thick feature two layers of foam, a larger base of high-density foam for stability and support, and a smaller (roughly 2") layer of gel swirl memory foam to adapt to your body and provide some added cooling.

Glowing Customer Review: "We purchased this for our RV. When it came we slept on it in our home for a week. Decided that the 8 inch Med/Firm was a little too firm and added an 1 1/2 inch topper," writes one reviewer who identifies as 65+. "When we moved it to the camper, we realized it was better than our old bed. So we brought it in the house to use and ordered another for our camper."

The Casper One Mattress is one of the brand's most basic offerings, but don't let the price tag fool you; this one's still got everything you want in a memory foam mattress, like a 3-zone support to relieve pressure and align your back by letting your shoulders sink a bit and cradling your hips, and what the brand calls their AirScape system, which allows for easy airflow.

Glowing Customer Review: "I was often waking up sore before getting a Casper, and never knew how much of a difference a great mattress could make. Now I sleep/lounge comfortably every single night and I'm always so excited to get home to my bed after a trip!"

This mattress utilizes the same green tea memory foam as the other Zinus mattress on the list to keep your bed fresh. However, it lacks the cooling gel infusion, so it traps a bit more heat, and reviewers say this one has a softer base if that's more your speed.

Glowing Customer Review: "This bed is the Oprah of beds. This bed is freshly signed divorce papers. THIS BED IS ALL YOU NEED IN THIS LIFE."

The Nectar memory foam mattress has five layers, including a shift-resistant lower cover on the bottom and a breathable cooling cover on top. In between, there are two layers of foam and one layer of gel-infused memory foam meant to give pressure-relieving support while also keeping you cooler than a traditional foam mattress. (Rubin at The Sleep Doctor also declared it the best overall memory foam mattress.)

Glowing Customer Review: "I'm a stomach sleeper and this is the first mattress I've ever owned that allowed me to sleep comfortably. I also have pretty serious back issues and sleeping is much less painful on this mattress than all my others."

Ideal for side sleepers, the Star Hybrid has five layers: high-density support foam, encased coils for increased support, comfort foam to adapt to your body, copper-infused memory foam to keep your bed fresh, and a moisture-wicking quilted cover.

Glowing Customer Review: "After 16 years of sleeping on a traditional spring queen, this mattress is fantastic. There is virtually NO motion when one of us rolls over or gets up in the night, which means much better, uninterrupted sleep. And it's REALLY comfortable."

This unique, flippable mattress is perfect for those who aren't totally sure if they prefer to sleep on soft or firmer mattress. On one side, you have a layer of soft copper-gel memory foam covered by a cooling, removable cover. On the other, you have that same cooling cover over a layer of a thinner layer of soft copper-gel memory foam, giving it the same properties, but a firmer feel.

Glowing Customer Review: "This was by far the best mattress I ever used. The firm side wasn't for me, but the soft side was perfect. Adapting to it took about 2 weeks because my body was used to a horrible painful spring mattress. This one was amazing once my body got used to it!"

WinkBeds' GravityLux is made from the brand's patented Aircell Memory Foam, a non-visco memory foam that the company says features microscopic shock-absorbing cushions designed to release pressure and provide support without retaining body heat. And a Tencel cover with gel-infused is designed to help you sleep cool.

Glowing Customer Review: "A lot of beds are not designed for bigger folks, but the Winkbed is. Its memory foam mattress gives me strong support and softness. It feels like it fits my body and actually makes me feel good about my body and the sleep I get."

Tempur-Pedic beds can be quite heavy, but this new Tempur-Cloud design was specifically created for fast shipping and easy delivery straight to your door. The mattress is made to feel medium firm, with three layers of foam wrapped in a moisture-wicking cover for breathability.

Glowing Customer Review: "I'm currently 8 months pregnant and my belly is fully supported like I'm sleeping on a floating cloud."
