7 Best Mattress For Stomach Sleepers (Review) In 2021

The Nectar Memory Foam Mattress is made from multiple layers of foam, plus a quilted cooling Tencel cover that acts to draw heat away from your body. It is a medium-firm mattress that works well for stomach sleepers, giving you an excellent level of balance and support and preventing you from sinking into an awkward position. On the firmness scale of 1-10, this mattress measures approximately 6-7.

Included in the Nectar mattress are two layers of viscoelastic foam, constructed to minimize motion transfer. This means it absorbs movement, rather than allowing it to spread across the bed. So if your partner tosses and turns during the night, you should not be interrupted. The middle foam layer of this mattress is an adaptive response transition layer, which provides the support needed when you sleep on your stomach. While you get contouring from the upper layers, sinkage is prevented. There is a bottom mattress cover with this model which encases all the foam layers and ensures it doesn’t slip around on your bed frame, whatever style of bed you have.

The Nectar Memory Foam Mattress comes rolled and packed in a box, so once you open it, you should allow around 48 hours for it to expand to its full shape. Once it is fully expanded, it will measure 25cm (10inches) thick, so is not overly deep, but still perfectly comfortable for most stomach sleepers. A very generous 365night sleep trial is included with this bed in a box, so you can return it at any point during the year if you find it is not suitable for you.

The Plank Mattress from Brooklyn Bedding is one of the best designs for those who like extra-firm sleep surfaces and it is ideal for heavier stomach sleepers. There are several layers in this mattress, with the first one being an option cooling cover, which is perfect for people who sleep hot. Inside, you get a 0.75inch quilted pillow top, two inches of transitional TitanFlex foam, a 7-inch layer of high-density base foam, and then a 1.5inch quilted bottom.

This bed is actually designed as a flippable mattress to give you the sleep surface you prefer. With the 0.75inch pillow top facing up, you get an ultra-firm experience, measuring between 9 and 10 on the firmness scale. If you flip the mattress, so the 1.5inch quilted bottom faces up, you will get a firm experience, measuring around eight on the firmness scale. Both options are firmer than many other mattresses, so it isn’t recommended for those stomach sleepers who weigh less than 130lbs.

As with many other designs from Brooklyn Bedding, the Plank Mattress comes in a box, so it is easy to transport to your desired location, and you will need to allow around 72 hours for it to expand fully. Included with this product is a 120-night trial period, so you can return it during that period if the plank is not the best mattress for you.

The Saatva Loom And Leaf Memory Foam Mattress is made from 100% foam but is still able to give stomach sleepers a balance of support and comfort, unlike some memory foam options.

This mattress is available in either medium-firm (5-7 rating) or firm (8 rating) levels, although the firm option is best for stomach sleeping unless you are particularly lightweight. If you suffer from any allergies, then you can be reassured that the Loom and Leaf has a hypoallergenic, 100% cotton cover. It is breathable and has been through antimicrobial treatments to increase its hygiene factor and reduce the number of allergens that may accumulate. Beneath this soft cover is a gel cooling layer that will act to keep your body temperature at its optimal point during the night.

The memory foam used in this mattress is 5lb high-density foam that provides exceptional support and makes it one of the best for pressure relieving. It is this high-density configuration that prevents it from being rolled up as a bed in a box format, so you should bear this in mind when you arrange your delivery. At the base of this bed, you get additional multiple layers of foam for added stability, and while the edge support is not extensive, it does not easily sag at the edges. Loom and Leaf offer a 180-night sleep trial and a fifteen-year warranty with all their mattresses.

The Casper Mattresses are available in either full foam or hybrid options. The hybrid designs give you a higher degree of firmness, so are better for people who sleep on their front, as the foam version may allow you to sink a little too much. With both options, there are three zones of support and a top level of polyurethane foam which is breathable and will keep you cool. This top layer of Airscape foam is reportedly the best foam to encourage air circulation, so it doesn’t retain heat like traditional memory foam.

In the center of the mattress, the memory foam is divided into zoned sections; softer areas around the shoulders, firmness around the hip and pelvis area, and then softer areas again for the lower legs. For many stomach sleepers, this means that your hips and pelvis are more supported and not pulled down by your midsection weight, thus keeping your spine aligned.

Depending on which construction you choose, the base is made from thick foam or multiple resilient springs. If your partner, or you, moves a lot in bed, then the foam mattress is best as it has marginally better motion isolation than the hybrid version. However, if you have a heavier frame, then the hybrid model is the better mattress for stomach sleeping. The Casper mattress is classed as a medium-firm mattress, and they come with a 100-night trial period, so if the firmness options are not right for you, the product can be returned.

The Alexander Signature Hybrid Bed from Nest Bedding comes in three different firmness options. On the firmness scale of 1-10, with 10 being the most firm, their Plush model has a 2 rating, their Luxury Firm scores an 8, and their medium rates at level 4. The Lux Firm is recommended for stomach sleepers as the others will be too soft and allow you to sink into an uncomfortable sleeping position. This is a hybrid type of mattress, with pocketed coils and foam layers.

The manufacturers have designed these mattresses with sustainability in mind as they want to decrease the amount of mattress waste in landfills. As a result, if you want to change just one part of the mattress over time, you don’t have to trade in the whole thing! You can unzip the cover, change the comfort layers for a different firmness, flip the layers over every few months, and even replace an extra comfort layer in later years.

This mattress has a 100night trial, and during this time, you can switch comfort layers so you can test the different firmness options before committing to one. The outer cover of this mattress is made from reinforced polyester, and as you open this you will find one inch of base support foam, weighing 3lbs. On top of this, there are individually pocketed coils in a layer, each with a depth of 8inches. This is topped with one inch of SmartFlow Support Foam and reinforced edge support is also included. The upper two layers are made with TitanChil Endurance Foam plus half an inch of luxury memory foam that has a quilted thermic phase change top which should help with temperature control.

In addition to the comfort layers and the sustainability aspects of the Alexander Signature Hybrid, you may find one other feature highly appealing. With the King or California King-sized mattress, there is an internal split in the mattress, so you get a dual firmness. This means each side can be customized, so if you want the Luxury Firm mattress, but your partner has a side sleeping position so wants a Plush surface with better pressure-relieving properties, this can be achieved.

The Original Bear Mattress is made of 100% foam and measures 7.1 out of 10 for firmness. This medium-firm feel gives a stomach sleeper the right amount of support and comfort to keep your spine aligned correctly.

This product measures 10inches thick and is covered with a breathable Celliant material, which is said to give you a 'contouring hug'. With this contouring provides pressure relief for stomach sleeping, the firmness level acts against gravity that pulls your spine towards your stomach. The trademarked Celliant Infrared Yarn Technology is designed to harness your natural energy, thus promoting recovery and well-being. The top layer is cooling graphite-gel memory foam that helps to dissipate body heat, rather than retain it, thus giving you a cooler sleeping experience. Underneath this top layer are the responsive and support foam layers that are providing the contouring around your shape.

Bear Mattresses are created with open-cell construction, so there is a reasonable amount of airflow, so you should have an optimal sleeping environment. They are made with environmentally friendly products and have very minimal odor compared to some memory foam. Bear Mattresses were traditionally designed for athletes, but there is no reason why they can't be the right mattress for everyone, and they are suitable for most sleeping positions, not just stomach sleeping!

The Avocado Green Mattress is one of the few non-toxic, organic, eco-friendly mattresses on the market. This product is Greenguard Gold Certified, made with natural and organic materials, all designed to give you comfortable cushioning plus pressure-point relief, whichever position you sleep in.

Their standard mattress is classed as medium to firm, with a 7/10 rating for firmness. This is the most suitable for stomach sleepers, back sleepers, and those who weigh over 130lbs. If this surface is too firm, you can always add the pillow-top which gives you a further two inches of latex rubber foam. This softer finish is ideal for those with lower body weight or combination sleepers who would benefit from more pressure point relief. Avocado mattresses have organic wool tuft needle rosettes, created by pulling ribbons through the layers of the bed, binding them together tightly, and improving durability.

Within this mattress construction, you find two layers of organic latex. One layer is two inches thick, and this makes up the comfort layer, and the other is one inch thick, located in the base. The Dunlop latex mattresses are cooler than typical memory foam mattresses and are is antimicrobial, meaning no chemicals are added to achieve the cooling effect. As this is a hybrid mattress, you will also find innerspring coils arranged in five zones to offer specific support around your midsection and shoulders. These coils are made using upcycled coils for improved airflow and support. Avocado Green mattresses come with a generous one-year sleep trial and a twenty-five-year limited warranty.
