What are the different types of Mattresses?

Ciao! The mattress world can be complicated because there are so many different options to choose from. Along with these options, all the mattresses have different unique add-on features that are specific to each manufacturer.

I know it can be stressful when shopping for the right type of mattress and getting the perfect sleep is very important!  So, I am here to help walk you through the different types of mattresses.

Allora, let’s begin

I will be listing five different types of mattresses:

  • Memory Foam
  • Innerspring
  • Hybrid
  • Gel-Infused
  • Latex

MEMORY FOAM

Memory foam has many qualities that make it one of the most comfortable mattress types for consumers!

A couple of unique qualities are:

  1. Relieves body pain and discomfort by taking away the pressure points at the shoulders, hips, elbows and knees
  2. Cradles your spine perfectly and great for side sleepers
  3. It provides great temperature control
  4. It is allergy friendly

If you are noticing frequent body aches and joint pain, switching to memory foam might be your answer. Memory foam can easily fit and match perfectly with your body. Here at GiNO, our memory foam is weight and pressure-sensitive, which can provide great elastic support and recovery with a quick shape response. A good posture sleep is important, and we want you to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to start your spectacular day!

Temperature control for many sleepers is a crucial quality to have. Being overly hot or cold could irritate your sleep, and there goes another sleepless night! However, with memory foam, it is made out of temperature-sensitive material which allows the mattress to balance out the temperature for you. Many manufacturers provide cooling features as well. Here at GiNO, we use an open-cell memory foam that creates a breathable and cooler memory foam, so you can sleep cool all night long.

Allergy-friendly! What a relief right! As mentioned in previous blogs when a mattress is overused and not replaced, dust mites and other allergens can start living in it. But not to worry, because memory foam is made to prevent allergens because of the mattress’s dense form.

INNERSPRING

Innerspring mattresses are one of the oldest sleep technologies, however, they have evolved throughout time and are still used today!

Innersprings give off a bouncy and light feel, so if you are looking for something firmer this might not be your match. However, many sleepers love bouncy beds because they are easier to move around or get on and off the bed.

This type of mattress might also be a good choice if you are a stomach sleeper, due to the uniform, and light sleeping surface.

However, if we are talking long-term, the memory foam tends to stay more durable longer than the innerspring!

HYBRID

If you read the above descriptions and felt that they could both have the potential to be your perfect mattress match, then the hybrid mattress might be for you! This mattress has a combination of both spring and foam. However, the features will still be different compared to memory foam or innerspring.

The hybrid mattress is typically made up of innerspring for the internal support area with memory foam on the upper area for comfort.  Many manufacturers produce this mixed version in order to cut the costs of the more expensive foam support layer.

GEL or GEL-INFUSED FOAM

Gel mattresses focus on the comfort in the hip and joint area, and it also has great temperature regulation!

These beds limit motion transfer and provide support, which can be beneficial for couples because you would not have to worry about bothering your partner when tossing and turning.

However, these can be on the more expensive side, and there are many variations of this type.

LATEX

Latex mattresses can be tricky depending heavily on your preference and body reaction towards the material! Some are allergic to latex, and this mattress type would not work for them.

However, this material allows the mattress to offer soft comfort along with strong pressure relief. Say goodbye to sinking into your mattress! Latex has a strong form and gives the essential support needed. 

Meraviglioso! Now that I have listed the types of mattresses, I hope you got a better idea of which one out of these could be your perfect match. Buying a mattress is a big investment, it is crucial to ask questions, do your research, and check out our blogs for more information.

Buona notte e sogni d’oro
