Is a medium firm mattress good for side, back or front sleepers? You're preferred sleeping position determines what mattress firmness is appropriate for you. A medium-firm mattress is neither too firm nor too soft, which makes it ideal for people who sleep in different positions throughout the night: stomach, back and side. It's not too firm to cause improper spine alignment when sleeping on your side and not too soft for back or front sleeping. 

Generally, side sleepers are recommended to sleep on soft mattresses as the sleeping surface provides enough cushioning to the pressure points such as the shoulders and hips to promote healthy spinal alignment. The opposite is said for back and stomach sleepers, requiring a firmer mattress in order to properly support the back. 

With a pocket sprung mattress, each pocket spring moves independently and moulds to your body contours, providing support and promoting healthy spine alignment across all sleeping positions. If you're looking for a mattress that provides support but is more of an affordable option, open coil mattresses are a go-to. Made from a continuous wire that comprises the spring system, this kind of mattress is great for pressure relief but does not mould to your body shape as much as pocket sprung mattresses.

One of the most popular kinds of sleeping solutions, we offer an extensive selection of memory foam mattresses. Made up of millions of tiny holes that seep air when pressure is applied, memory foam mattresses are known for their heat retention properties due to minimal airflow. If you're a hot sleeper, you may want to opt for a mattress that is better at regulating body temperature.

If you want the best of a spring unit and a memory foam layer, natural latex or Geltex layer, then the hybrid mattress is the way to go. Receive brilliant support from pocket springs or an open traditional coil unit, yet enjoy the sumptuous comfort of a foam or latex layer or pillow top. With such a combination, most people will have their sleeping needs fulfilled for a peaceful slumber.
