Mattress 1 is a solid brand that has been around several decades.

They make a durable spring and foam hybrid mattress with multiple firmnesses and thicknesses.

However there is one critical drawback that prevent us from recommending them with any confidence. The inability to purchase directly on their site. Going to a store is almost always a bad idea and leads to more headaches vs. buying online.

Consider superior alternatives like Saatva Classic if you want a true luxury mattress experience that's built to last (+ fantastic policies).

Here are several relevant and useful comments from buyers considering or have already purchased Mattress 1 Mattress.

• User 1: "The owner Keith is good, but the products and return/exchange policy suck. No "comfort guarantee" so you better be happy with what you pick. I won't be shopping here again. The mattress I got was defective (2 inches less than stated and hard as a rock) but I had to pay the 25% restocking fee, plus price difference and delivey charge to get a mattress that didn't hurt my entire."

COMFORT OVERVIEW
Comfort, feel and overall firmness for Mattress 1St mattress is extremely subjective.

Firmness isn't the only factor to consider when you're mattress shopping.

Choosing the right bed starts with figuring out how your body responds to lying at different angles.

It's important to understand how a mattress relieves pain and distributes pressure on your sensitive points (neck, shoulder, upper back, lower back, arms, hips, legs), as well as how it feels for couples and sex.

COMFORT SUMMARY
Firmness is highly subjective and varies between individuals. What feels firm to one person might feel soft to another.

You should be wary of reviews that make definitive statements about how a mattress will make you feel while you sleep.

Mattress 1 has a few models with varying firmnesses. You can't buy a Mattress 1 model online, so if you test one in person keep in mind it won't be the same firmness or feel vs. in the comfort of your own home.

EDGE SUPPORT
• Sturdy enough to keep the mattress from caving in.

Note: Edge support is a term used to describe how well mattress edges sustain concentrated weight without collapsing.

Good edge support is important. It helps your mattress last longer (less sagging) and creates a larger overall sleep surface (bonus for couples).

Don't be fooled by low-quality mattresses that appear to have good edge support at first. They break down faster and you'll end up with a bigger headache down the line.

SIDE SLEEPERS
• Your shoulders, hips and torso must evenly distribute support if you sleep on your side. Otherwise concentrated pressure causes long term nerve and pain-related issues.

BACK/STOMACH SLEEPERS
• When you sleep on your back & stomach, your biggest concern should be finding a mattress that keeps your hips from sinking too far in. This knocks your spine out of alignment.
• Offers decent pressure relief in your low back with full-body good support as well.

Motion transfer measures how much movement changes between sides of the bed. You'll need a motion-isolating mattress if you sleep with a partner who tosses and turns at night. Less motion means better sleep.
