Active individuals naturally need much greater support and luxury while sleeping in order to recuperate from the strains of the day. For those looking for luxury options in mattresses, you needn’t look any further; here is a list of the best luxurious mattresses to support your active lifestyle:

1. Pincore Mattress (100% Natural Latex)

100% natural latex mattresses are MM Foam’s legacy and for a good reason. This mattress is a luxury mattress because this is completely made of natural latex and has pin-type cores for easy ventilation, to prevent overheating, to naturally discourage germ growth, and keep the mattress smelling and feeling fresh. The reason this mattress tops the list of luxury mattresses is that it is highly durable, which is a must for those looking to invest in a luxury mattress. It also offers superior support for the back compared to other mattresses, boosts blood circulation and hygiene, and keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winters. 

Natural latex mattresses are also the most sustainable form of mattresses. This mattress also tops the list because it maintains its bounciness for much, much longer, as compared to luxury foam mattresses, and also prevents motion transfer. To increase the quality of mattress usually question people ask is should you rotate it? Which usually depends mattress to mattress. We also love this mattress because of its luxurious breathable bamboo top covering, and because it has the doctor-recommended ideal firmness of medium-firm. The cherry on top is the fact that MM Foam offers an astounding 17 years of warranty – that’s best in class so far that we have found!

2. The Sleep Company SmartGRID Luxe Hybrid Mattress 

This mattress is a hybrid mattress, meaning it uses two forms of foams or materials to create the mattress. Here the mattress is a combination of spring and memory foam. This mattress is highly responsive to your body movements, weight, and shape so that you get precise, personalized comfort and support. This hybrid mattress provides soft and plush feel. However, this plushness can be a bane for those with back and neck pain, especially those living an active lifestyle.

It comes with pocketed springs in order to provide bounciness and springiness to the mattress. Additionally, it comes with a soft upper cover made up of organic viscose soft cotton which is hypoallergenic. This mattress falls on the expensive side and offers 10 years of warranty, but no option for return, only 10 days replacement. One of the downsides of this mattress is that it is the heaviest in this list at a massive 60 kgs, making its portability and versatility limited. 

3. Wakeup Luxuriate

The Wakeup Luxuriate mattress is a hybrid foam mattress that provides superior comfort and is great for orthopedic support. The mattress has a plush firmness, which gives the sleeper relief from spine, neck, and hip discomfort, and helps achieve a deep and slumberous sleep. The material comprises of cool gel memory foam and pocket springs, and is a bouncy mattress perfect for active couples. It also has a hypoallergenic covering top with a luxurious feel, although the type of fabric used is not mentioned. 

However, there are a few discernible downsides of this mattress. Firstly, the mattress does not speak to the presence of motion transfer, which may cause disturbances to sleeping partners and cause for things to spill when kept on the bed. Thus, this may not be fit for light sleepers or for couples with late night work schedule. Further, this mattress comprises of pocket springs which can become faulty over time, causing the mattress to sink inwards and sag. Although this mattress is highly comfortable, it also does not mention anything on the cooling properties, which may indicate a problem of overheating and might not be perfect for hot sleepers. This mattress, is offered on Amazon and offers a 10-day replacement, with a warranty of 10 years.

4. Kurl-on Activ 5 Zone

The 5-zone mattress has different zones designated for the head, shoulders, hips, knees and legs which ultimately means a more therapeutic sleep that feels natural. This mattress seems to be a foam mattress, and the 5-Zoned Active NRG layer offers ideal spine alignment and zonal back support. It seems to possess a high-density coir loaded with ACT and VCT. It is also topped with Memory Foam Quilt for pressure relief. 

However, the downsides, as is the case with foam mattresses, is that not only do they become very overheated, they also can sag and change shape with regular use. Furthermore, the problem with the five-zone mattress is that it might not be adapted for different sleeping positions. Furthermore, the firmness level is not mentioned by Kurl-on for this mattress. Kurl-on offers a 10-years warranty on this product although the overall price is quite high. Another problem is that, based on first impression, there doesn’t seem to be balancing of comfort and support.

5. Springfit Reactive Gold Mattress

This orthopedic memory foam mattress is a great luxurious mattress for active folk. It is a breathable mattress, although quite heavy. The other plus point of this mattress is that it is antimicrobial, hypoallergenic, odour-free, dust mite resistant, which helps active people maintain their immunity. While it provides great back support and its firmness levels make it very comfortable, the mattress claims to provide zero motion transfer which is a difficult feat to achieve for medium-soft mattresses such as this one. 

However, there are a few other downsides. For starters, memory foam is inherently heat reactive and traps heat, which cannot be easily resolved in order to maintain the softness of the foam. This makes overheating a frequent complaint in memory foam mattresses. Further, the firmness is not ideal doctor recommended albeit very comfortable. Firm or medium-firm orthopedic mattresses tend to be more effective. Lastly, this mattress is quite expensive, but offers a warranty of just five years.

With so many different types of mattresses available online, it can be confusing to decide and buy a mattress. Hope this guide helps you identify the right mattress for you if you lead an active lifestyle. Natural latex is a great choice as they are good for the environment as well as for your health however if you are looking for affordable luxury you might look for hybrid mattresses with natural latex or memory foam layers to ensure a comfortable sleep.
