Thinking About an Extra Firm Mattress? Read This First.

So, you're looking at extra firm mattresses. Good choice if you're a stomach or back sleeper, or if you're on the heavier side. That solid feel is great for keeping your spine aligned and preventing that "sinking" feeling softer beds have.

But a word of caution – it's not for everyone. If you're a dedicated side sleeper, that ultra-firm surface might be tough on your shoulders. The key is in the build: look for thick coils or high-density foam and reinforced edges. Don't just trust the label.

My advice? Always, and I mean always, check the sleep trial. You won't know if it's your kind of firm until you've slept on it for a few weeks. Do your homework, and you'll find your match.
