Disclaimers / Disclosures
This page is designed to clarify how we create the content on our website and outline our relationships with manufacturers in the mattress industry. We believe in complete transparency and aim to use this page to provide a clear, honest explanation of every aspect of how our site operates.

Receiving Free Products
In most cases, we receive products for free in exchange for review consideration. Occasionally, as noted, we may instead provide a summary of verified customer feedback from other sources. Receiving a product does not guarantee that weβll publish a review. All of our reviews are based on the genuine opinions and experiences of our writers, who have spent hundreds of hours testing mattresses and other sleep products.
Affiliate Links
Some of our reviews include affiliate links, which means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. These commissions help support our testing and review operations and come at no additional cost to you. It simply allows the retailer to track that the sale originated from our website.
In some cases, we may also share coupon codes that track the source of a sale, for which we receive compensation. Additionally, we may link to general e-commerce platformsβsuch as Amazon.comβwhere we earn a commission through their affiliate program. In those instances, our relationship is solely with the platform (e.g., Amazon), not with the specific mattress manufacturer.
Our Philosophy
We built this website with one primary goal: to help consumers find the right sleep products for their individual needs. Choosing a mattress can be confusingβpersonal preference plays a huge role, and thereβs no single βbestβ mattress for everyone. With all the marketing noise in the industry, itβs easy to be misled or overwhelmed.
Our mission is to make the process simpler and clearer. We break down the key features of each mattress and explain who itβs best suited for. The opinions shared on this site are our own, based on experience and testing, and should be viewed as informed perspectives, not absolute conclusions.
In general, we avoid making blanket statements like βthis is the best mattress.β While you may see ratings or rankingsβsometimes organized by category, such as best innerspring mattressesβthese are subjective assessments that reflect our personal opinions and experiences. Because the ideal mattress varies depending on body weight, sleep position, and individual preferences, we encourage you to use our content as a trusted starting point in your own mattress search.
