Buying the Right Mattress in 2025

You have to consider so many aspects to buy the right mattress from the size, types of mattresses, and material to cost. For bulk buying, these factors become even more important. JLH Home is a professional bed and mattress manufacturer in China, we offer superior-quality mattresses and upholstered beds for local and international clients.

There is a challenge faced by most clients when buying mattresses in bulk, they don’t understand what type of mattress is needed for their space. An individual client usually has knowledge of his sleeping position, body weight, and other sleeping habits. Individuals can make an informed decision based on personal preferences.

A business owner needs to renovate 15 rooms in his hotel and new mattresses and beds are required. Here comes this guide on different types of mattresses and how to choose the right one.

Types of Mattresses

JLH Home offers a wide range of mattresses, including spring mattresses, foam mattresses, hotel mattresses, and roll-up mattresses. In this guide, we will discuss the common types of mattresses that are equally popular among diverse audiences.

1. Innerspring Mattresses

Innerspring mattresses are usually affordable as compared to other types of mattresses. Hot sleepers can go for these mattresses, and you will experience the bouncy feeling.

Innerspring mattresses consist of a core support system made up of steel coils. These coils are typically topped with a thin comfort layer made of foam, fiber, or even a small pillow top. Types of coils include:

· Bonnel coils

· Offset coils

· Continuous coils

· Pocket coils

Pros and Cons

Innerspring mattresses offer optimized airflow due to the open coil design and moving across the bed is easier for the users. But pressure-relieving properties are not that impressive. Always buy a premium innerspring mattress or the coils can become noisy over time.

2. Memory Foam Mattresses

Joint pain is quite common these days and memory foam mattresses easily adjust according to the body shape of the sleeper, offering a neutral spinal alignment and just-right support. Couples should also try memory foam mattresses due to motion isolation features.

Made entirely of memory foam or layers of memory foam over a polyurethane support core. Modern models may include gel-infused foam, copper-infused foam, or open-cell designs for added cooling. More features mean a higher price tag, make sure to analyze the available options to find an affordable memory foam mattress.

Pros and Cons

Spinal alignment is the best thing about memory foam mattresses and you can also get different firmness levels according to your personal needs.

Heat retention is something that might bother some sleepers. Cooling gel can resolve this issue but for combination sleepers, the surface responds slowly.

3. Latex Mattresses

These mattresses are made with natural latex (from rubber trees), synthetic latex, or a blend. These mattresses often include layers of latex over a high-density foam or latex support core.

If you are suffering from allergies, latex foam mattresses are the best option for you. Modern consumers not only care about their homes, but they also invest in eco-friendly products. Latex mattresses are part of the green initiatives by many manufacturers. JLH Home also uses state-of-the-art mattress manufacturing processes, offering high-quality products with minimal carbon footprint.

Pros and Cons

These mattresses don't retain heat and offer a comfortable sleep experience with a bouncy surface. The materials used in the manufacturing of latex mattresses are hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites and mold.

Premium mattresses in this category are quite expensive and the use of 100% natural latex also makes them heavier, and harder to move. If you like softer surfaces to sleep on, a latex mattress might take you some time to feel comfortable.

4. Roll Up Mattresses

Mattress delivery is an issue for the manufacturer and the consumer. Shipping bulky mattresses to different international markets costs higher rates and that eventually increases the final price of the product for the consumer.

JLH Home has resolved the issue by offering a roll-up mattress, that is delivered compressed and rolled in a box. Once a customer unpackages these mattresses, they bounce back to their original shape in a few hours. You can get customized rolled-up mattresses for personal and business use.

Pros and Cons

“Mattress in a box” or rolled-up mattresses are quite popular these days. Delivery costs are lower, it is easier to move inside your home, and costs less than other mattresses. The only issue might be the time required for the mattress to gain the original shape of the mattress.

5. Hybrid Mattresses

As the name suggests, hybrid mattresses have combined features of all mattress types. These are perfect mattresses for sleepers who like specific features of different mattress types.

A hybrid mattress combines a coil support system (often pocket coils) with layers of memory foam, latex, or polyfoam. It typically features at least 2 inches of foam or latex above the coils to qualify as a true hybrid.

Pros and Cons

They offer better airflow and temperature regulation than all-foam models. Hybrid mattresses also offer the pressure relief of foam with the support of coils. These are best for a comfortable yet supportive sleep experience.

How to Choose the Right Mattress?

These are only a few popular types of mattresses that are available in different markets. You can contact JLH Home to get custom products, mattresses, and beds for your home, hotel, or other projects.

Now, here are some practical tips that you need to keep in mind while buying the right bed for the best sleep experience.

· Consider your sleeping position because side, back, stomach, and combination sleepers require different firmness and support levels.

· Think about your body weight because you might sink into too-soft mattresses.

· Temperature preference is also important because your body should not heat up while sleeping.

· Motion isolation ensures peaceful sleep for couples, the mattress should absorb the movement of the partner.

· Are you allergic to any specific materials? Do you need a mattress for any specific pain relief? Health concerns also impact the purchase of the right mattress.

· What is the cost of the mattress and what’s about the trial period and warranties?
