A medium mattress refers to its firmness rating. It’s firmer than a soft mattress, but less firm than a firm mattress. However, everybody is different, so what feels like a medium firmness to one person could feel soft, or firm to someone else and vice versa.
There are a few things to consider when buying a new medium mattress. One of the most important things is support. Your sleep surface should have enough cushioning to provide relief for pressure points while you sleep. It should also be firm enough to help keep your spine in natural alignment, to prevent issues that can cause back pain. When you’re lying on your mattress, it should also evenly distribute your body weight. If your mattress combines these three kinds of support, you’re well on your way to getting the good night’s sleep you deserve.
How do I know if a medium mattress is right for me?
Our best advice is to try the different types of mattress firmness ratings using our SleepPRO technology in store, so that you can see which type of firmness is going to best suit your individual needs.
Our medium mattresses come in all sizes – from small single and single right through to double and king size, so they’re perfect for all kinds of bedrooms.
Medium mattresses are also available in various different types of mattresses, including pocket sprung and memory foam mattresses. Pocket sprung mattresses are made up of springs encased in their own individual pockets. This means that each spring can individually respond to the contours of your body – so if you move about at night, you’ll still be getting the support you need. If you prefer to sink into your mattress, memory foam is a great option, as it is expertly designed to mould to your body shape.
Medium mattresses are also suitable on a variety of bed frames. Whether you want a storage saving divan, a luxurious upholstered bed frame, or a TV bed for late-night binges, our mattresses will fit perfectly in all kinds of beds.
Everyone is unique when it comes to feeling perfectly comfy in bed, and at Bensons for Beds we have a range of medium mattresses that come in different sizes and types, so you can find one that’s perfect for you and your bed.
