You might have heard that side sleepers like to use a softer or plusher mattress. You might also have heard, back sleepers prefer a much firmer/ harder sleeping surface. I agree! However, I think that your body weight plays an important factor as well. A 220lb back sleeper, would need a much firmer core than a 120lb back sleeper. The same goes for the side sleeper. For example: I’m a side sleeper and tend to toss and turn quite often. For years I slept on a firm tempered steel coil mattress that had maybe a couple inches of a soft poly/cotton top. I loved it! I also weighed 185lbs then. After switching to a medium density foam core bed with a nice soft cotton top, I sleep much sounder at 225lbs.
My parents ended up using my old mattress for one of their spare bedrooms. After gaining a few pounds over the years, when I visit the folks they’re always pushing me to sleep on my old mattress. I can’t sleep a wink on it. It feels like a rock. So now, I just crash on the sofa which is a hell of a lot more comfortable (to me) than the firm mattress in the spare bedroom that I once loved…
To some it up, if you’ve experienced some weight gain or loss and don’t seem to be getting a good nights sleep. You might want to try out a new mattress!

Before I started at The Futon Shop. I wasn’t really interested about organic sleeping…
Now after working here a number years, thankfully I have been educated on what organic sleeping is all about! For starters I had no idea what latex in a mattress was? I had no idea what soy-foam is?
Do you?
