Dreamcloud Premier Hybrid Medium-Firm has been great for me. Firm enough to give good support but also allows for comfortable side sleeping. Comes delivered rolled up in a box. https://www.dreamcloudsleep.com/mattresses/premier-hybrid-mattress
To be fair, showroom testing can kinda suck depending on how long the beds have been sitting out there and how old/worn out they are. That said, if you wanna narrow it down and take advantage of those sweet sleep trials at home, the new DreamCloud Classic and Premier hybrids are really good for side sleepers (especially if you have hip pain). They also aren't prone to overheating in my experience. Tempur-Pedic and Leesa are good too, but I'd say their foam models are infinitely better than their hybrids. If you're willing to give foam a try, it might be easier on your hips. The Saatva Rx is great for side sleeping, the Classic is a little too firm imo.
I had a highly rated Avocado mattress and retuned it (the company of all products is one of the best I’ve worked with - across the board). The return was due to mattress being too soft). As a heavier person I searched for a mattress for side sleeper suitable for a heavier person. I ended up purchasing a DreamCloud premium hybrid and cannot wait to get it! My suggestion is to consider one with hassle free returns if you do not like after sleeping on it for up to a year. DreamCloud also gave free bedding. Good luck and sleep well.
Dreamcloud premier is the best mattress I’ve ever had
Tried making a post on the main thread but it kept getting taken down so I guess I'll post it in this thread. I recently moved out and bought a DreamCloud Premier mattress. Right now, it’s on the floor because the Koorlian bedframe I was gifted has slats spaced 4–5 inches apart, and I've been getting some lower back and hip tightness. I’m not sure if it’s the mattress itself or because it’s on the floor. I’m looking for a bedframe with slats 3 inches or less apart and a weight capacity around 900 - 1,000 lbs. I’m currently 170 lbs, but I occasionally do like to run and jump onto the bed when I would play with my dog (I recently lost mine to an ex). I’ve considered using a bunkie board to reduce slat gaps, but the head and foot of the frame have no rail support, so the mattress would still sag in those areas. One idea I had was to buy another Koorlian bedframe, take the slats and side rails, and attach them to my current one which would require cutting the side rails and drilling into my current bedframe (not ideal for me but it's an option). My family suggests I should just buy a new bedframe instead. I’ve been looking at the Martinez Upholstered Wingback Bed, but it only supports 700 lbs. KD Frames are similar — also limited to 700 lbs. I've looked at Thuma however after spending a lot of money on moving, furniture and other things I can't afford anything that expensive at the moment. I’d really appreciate advice from anyone who has experience with reinforcing a frame or preferably knows of a bedframe that meets these criteria.
We got a Dreamcloud Premier Hybrid after our first was born. I struggled a lot with our old mattress while I was pregnant, but we couldn’t afford a replacement. Now, 5 years later, it is still the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever slept on. I get sad at hotels because they aren’t comfy any more 😂
