8 Inch Foam and Spring RV Mattress
User Guide
How to Choose the Right Mattress
We understand that shopping for a mattress online can leave you with few questions – most of them revolving around what your new bed will feel like when you get it home. That’s why we’ve created the ultimate guide to choosing your perfect Zinus mattress, so you can find the answers you’re looking for and put that decidophobia (yes, that word means what you think it means) to bed once and for all.
Consider a few things first
Perhaps you’ve already given some thought to the preferences mentioned below, but we believe in being thorough. Here’s a checklist of what to think about when you begin to browse our mattresses:
- Your sleeping position
- Your weight and body type
- Whether or not you sleep with a partner (human or animal)
- Your personal sleep habits and preferences
Mattress firmness: a matter of opinion, not fact
Terms like “soft”, “plush” or “firm” are all relative, qualitative words that
often describe a mattress. Truth be told, the firmness level of a mattress is
entirely subjective, depending on factors like the sleeper’s weight, sleep
tendencies and personal preferences. Let us shed a little light so you can
determine what a mattress might feel like to you.
While shopping, you will notice that most Zinus
mattresses come in different
thicknesses.
Ranging from 6 – 14 inches, we carry a variety of profile heights. In general,
a taller mattress will feel softer than a shorter version of the same model.
This is because taller mattresses are made up of additional layers,
contributing further to the sinking feeling you get from a “soft” mattress.
Furthermore, it’s important to remember that your body weight plays a big part
in how a mattress feels beneath you. Heavier people will sink further into any
mattress, meaning they perceive most models to feel soft. By contrast, lighter
people do not put as much pressure on a mattress’s surface, giving them the
feeling of extra firmness.
With a better understanding of how you might perceive mattress firmness, let’s
now take a look at a few common types of sleepers and our top recommendations
for those individuals.
The side sleeper
Soft and conforming like the name implies, our Pressure Relief Cloud Memory Foam Mattress is a side sleeper’s dream. It’s designed with layers of cradling memory foam and comfort foam, ensuring that you sink in just right and awake restored.
The stomach sleeper
Our Pressure Relief Gel Memory Foam iCoil® Hybrid
Mattress features optimal support from its pocketed springs and a touch of
softness from its comfort foam and Viscolatex foam top layers.
And bonus points for its cooling gel infusion, which whisks away the extra
body heat you’ll tend to generate from all that bodily surface area contact
with the mattress.
The back sleeper
Our Pressure Relief Pillow Top iCoil® Hybrid Mattress features a base support layer of pocketed springs which provide a firmer feel while also adhering to your body’s contours. Its pillowy top layer of comfort foam helps it achieve just the right balance between soft and firm for backsleepers.
The all-over-the-place sleeper
So what if you don’t exactly assume one of the common sleep positions above, but tend to shift between a combination of all three? You’re not alone. And fear not, there are mattresses designed to support more active sleep habits.
Particularly for those who like to flip-flop between back and stomach during
the night, our Pressure Relief Olive Oil Memory Foam iCoil® Hybrid
Mattress has a few great things going for it. Beginning with a
base of 8-inch pocketed springs for a solid foundation, this design lets you
rest atop supportive foam layers and a soft fiber and foam quilted cover. As
you move around, its iCoils will move independently of one another, helping to
isolate motion to your side of the bed. This mattress also features superior
edge support, which helps to keep you safely in bed as you work on finding
your most comfortable spot.
If side-to-back or side-to-stomach is more your preference, it’s important to
find a mattress that will specialize in molding to your hips, shoulders and
spinal curvature. And motion transfer is still an obvious concern, especially
if you sleep with a loved one. A memory foam model, like our Pressure Relief
Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress, will offer
the contouring comfort you need and has a less reactive feel that won’t
disturb you or a sleeping partner.
The petite sleeper
On the smaller side? It’s quite possible that most mattresses feel firm to you. For the right amount of cushioning and support, our Pressure Relief Green Tea Memory Foam 12” Mattress is the way to go.
The plus-sized sleeper
Our Pressure Relief Extra Firm iCoil® Hybrid Mattress is densely packed with heavy gauge steel pocketed springs to support larger individuals without sagging.
The hot sleeper
Opt for something like our Cooling Gel Memory Foam Mattress. Special gel foam, devised to draw heat away from the body, is built right into the soft, breathable knit fabric covered top layer.
Couples and co-sleeping families
And lucky for you, most of our Zinus mattresses are made from motion-isolating memory foam or iCoil pocket springs, so it’s hard to make the wrong choice. But if you’re asking for our recommendation, we’re big fans of the Pressure Relief Euro Top iCoil® Hybrid Mattress for its luxurious cover, plush quilted top and supportive foundation of iCoil springs.
Joint pain sufferers
Our Pressure Relief Cloud Memory Foam
Mattress is meant to hug your shape, without putting any unnecessary pressure
on sensitive areas like the hips, shoulders, neck and spine.
Keep in mind that the guidelines above are just that, a general guide to use
if you’re unsure about where to begin. But if you’re a back sleeper and you
get the best sleep of your life atop an extra soft mattress, who are we to say
that you’re wrong? And because you are ultimately the best judge of comfort,
every Zinus mattress comes with a 100 night risk free
trial – plenty of
time for you to test out sleeping, lounging, fort-making and midnight-munching
before deciding to make it official. So what do you have to lose? Consider the
tips above, maybe take our Find Your Perfect Mattress
quiz for a spin, and
you’ll likely be one step closer to riding off into the sunset with your
perfect mattress match.
