H OW WE TEST: We calculate
the Overall Score primarily by
evaluating a mattress’s side
and back support, durability, and
stabilization. For adjustable air
mattresses, we use an average of
firmness levels. Support for side
sleepers is the ability to keep a side
sleeper’s spine relatively horizontal.

Support for back sleepers is the

ability to maintain the natural curve

of the back sleeper’s spine. In our

support tests, we use a woman

4 feet, 11½ inches to 5 feet, 1½ inches

tall and 110 to 127.5 pounds for the

Petite sleeper scores, and a man

6 feet, 2 inches to 6 feet, 4 inches

tall and 220 to 242 pounds for

the Large/tall sleeper scores. The

Average sleeper is an average

of these two sizes. Durability gauges

a mattress’s ability to keep its

original shape, height, firmness,

and support after a simulated

eight to 10 years of use, including our

passing a nearly 310-pound roller

over each mattress 30,000 times.

A high score for Stabilization indicates

little or no bouncing or vibration

transferred for innersprings, and

ease of movement and changing

positions for foam. We rate Firmness

on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10

being the firmest. Price is approxi-

mate retail for a queen-size

mattress without a box spring.
