Frequently Asked Questions
We know how anxiety-producing it is to make a decision sight unseen as to what you may end up spending 10 years sleeping on. To that end, we spend a week or more testing these mattresses in our own homes, sleeping on them, relaxing on them, and just overall using them as a consumer would, to get insight on comfort, support, materials, and any other details that pop up. To give us some concrete data (since we're not exactly conscious during testing), sleep trackers keep tags on our progress.
How Does WIRED Acquire Mattresses to Test?
All mattresses chosen for this guide were either samples provided by the manufacturer, with no obligation for coverage or promises for what coverage could look like, or purchased by us and expensed.
What Does WIRED Do With the Mattresses After Testing Them?
Once testing is complete, the mattresses are donated locally within the tester's geographic region.
