Best Mattresses for Snoring (2024): Reviews and Buyer’s Guide

With its medium feel, the AS3 should never feel too soft or firm beneath your body. As indicated by our tests, Its balanced feel will cushion your body just enough to relieve pressure build-up but won’t feel uncomfortably soft.

Our investigation demonstrated that the ergonomic support of the AS3 protects and lifts your back, keeping you from sinking into bed. It also cushions your hips and shoulders—two areas that commonly become stiff, sore, and achy when sleeping on your side.

Don’t just take our word for it, though. We surveyed hundreds of people on what they thought about the AS3, here is what some had to say:

Connie: This will always be my go to as far as mattresses go for all of my beds.

Mark: It is soft which she likes, and extremely supportive which has greatly helped with the pain in my back. After three years, our mattress has still not sagged or become pitted like our previous spring mattress.

Pam: Pros: So, so comfortable I have never slept so well. Cons: I never want to get out of my bed.

The AS3 is 12 inches thick with 3 inches of Bio-Pur®, 2 inches of Affinity foam, and a 7-inch Bio-Core® base. Our research showed that the mattress cover incorporates thermo-reactive minerals for improved coolness and comfort. As sleepers rest on the Refresh fabric cover, the material absorbed body heat and converts it into infrared energy.

Bio-Pur® is a plant-based foam—Amerisleep replaces part of the petroleum with castor oil during the manufacturing process. As a result, the mattress produces little to no off-gassing. Our team discovered that pressure-relieving Bio-Pur® sleeps cooler than traditional memory foam and allows sleepers to feel like they’re sleeping on the mattress, not in it.

The Affinity layer features HIVE® technology—a 5-zoned support system, providing firmer support to the head, back, and legs, with a softer give to the shoulders and hips. This enhanced support layer aligns the spine for even body distribution, as our tests found.

The supportive Bio-Core® base is made using eco-friendly methods, and also has little to no off-gassing odor. The Bio-Core® reinforces the top layers by providing consistent support, as our investigation showed.

“Focusing on mattress features is crucial for those seeking relief from snoring,” says Dr. Burns. “Look for memory foam or latex mattresses known for their ability to reduce pressure points and maintain proper alignment. Additionally, consider adjustable bases that allow for personalized positioning, potentially mitigating snoring issues and promoting a quieter, more restful sleep.”

Lying down on the Zoma Start, the first thing you’ll notice is that it is highly responsive for an all-foam mattress. This is all thanks to the layer of bouncy Reactiv™ transition foam that springs back as soon as you move and offers dynamic support. The mattress is also designed to deliver cool-to-the-touch comfort quickly when you stretch out.

“Heat and discomfort can exacerbate snoring problems,” says Dr. Jordan Burns. “Opting for a cooling mattress, backed by insights from sleep organizations, can contribute to a more comfortable sleep environment. Cool, breathable materials in mattresses can help regulate temperature, fostering conditions conducive to peaceful and snore-free sleep.”

This medium mattress also offers tons of versatility for all kinds of sleepers. It is on the more supportive end of a medium feel. So it can accommodate some back sleepers and virtually all combo sleepers at once. This is perfect for combo sleepers who tend to favor their backs. It also is a good fit for those who suffer from back pain.

Some of the thousands surveyed on the Zoma Mattress had this to say:

Parth P: It is a phenomenal mattress especially for the price!

Billy K: Kind of firm waking up with shoulder pain occasionally

Xiao C: It’s of good quality overall. Came with proper packaging and easy to set up. It was a bit too soft for my back the first night, but after that I experience no back pain sleeping on it.

The Zoma Start starts off with a cooling, ventilated cover that breathes all night to wick away heat and sweat. This cover works with the gel memory foam comfort layer to ensure your sleep surface stays cool all night. The gel memory foam also offers a high degree of compression and pressure relief to ensure you get the contouring you need.

Underneath the comfort layer, you’ll find a bouncy transition layer made of Reactiv™ foam. This layer offers buoyancy and dynamic support. It also springs back as soon as you move to ensure that the sleep surface does not have issues with body impressions or slow response time.

Finally, a layer of highly durable base foam ensures there is no sinkage in this mattress. It keeps you lifted onto the sleep surface and provides total spinal alignment. Best of all, this base foam layer increases the durability of the entire mattress.

You can expect it to fight sagging and soft spot development for at least 10 years. That means it will last just as long as many more expensive mattresses.

A single sleeper lying down on the Vaya Mattress should find it difficult to tell apart from more high-priced mattresses. The surface is gently soft but balances responsive support with adaptable support.

We read through several reviews of this Vaya Mattress and found several to be very helpful:

Misty A: We’ve had our hybrid Vaya for 3 years. It’s fantastic. I sleep hot and I am very comfortable. Soft and supportive at the same time. It’s like the Goldilocks of mattresses. It’s just right. Perfection.

Gail H: I’m still getting used to my new mattress, but I think it will be perfect once I get a body pillow to cushion my knees when I sleep on my side.

Cooper: NO back pain for the first time in DECADES!

A Vaya Mattress has a simple two-layer design and stands 12 inches tall. The cover is a blend of rayon, spandex, and polyester.

The comfort layer is 3 inches of Vaya Comfort Foam, a latex-like foam that’s less dense than your typical memory foam. Vaya Comfort Foam eases pressure and is responsive enough to prevent you from feeling trapped in your mattress. The base layer is 9 inches of high-density foam that prevents sagging.

While the original Vaya Mattress is made entirely from foam, Vaya also offers the Vaya Hybrid. It features pocketed steel coils in place of a thick layer of foam, providing extra bounce and airflow to sleepers.

Lying down on the Loom and Leaf, you’ll notice its enhanced back support. This is thanks to a combination of quilting, buoyant foams, and technologies designed to support the middle of your body, keeping your heavier parts in line with your lighter ones.

Verified Reviewer Marc says “This mattress is, by far, the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever slept on. I’m using it now for almost six months, kept its shape and firmness too”.

Another owner Aml agreed, saying “The most comfortable mattress ever”.

However, Mike K disagrees saying “We purchased our mattress about 6 months ago and the first few nights were great. Ever since then our backs have been hurting to the point of us dreading to get into bed”.

The Loom and Leaf starts off with an organic cotton cover that features Lumbar Zone™ quilting to give you more support in the center of your body. Underneath this quilted cover rests a layer of supportive and cooling gel memory foam that enhances the lift under your middle even more.

Next up, you’ll find another layer of cooling and breathable gel memory foam. This foam molds itself to your body to offer spine-aligning support. The highly contouring comfort layer sits on top of a layer of high-density memory foam that preserves adaptability while greatly increasing buoyancy and supportiveness.

Below, a transitional loft pad determines the firmness of the mattress and also helps ensure seamless progression to the ultra-durable base foam layer at the bottom.

Nolah’s special AirFoam™ has a cushioning, responsive feel—similar to traditional memory foam, AirFoam™ conforms to the body, relieving pressure points without trapping heat or making the sleeper feel stuck inside the mattress. The mattress is also encased in soft, natural viscose material to wick away moisture.

Based on customer feedback, the Original 10” helped relieve their bodily pain and made it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

The original Nolah 10 has a simple design that takes full advantage of its cleverly engineered materials. As the name suggests, the mattress stands 10 inches tall.

The mattress cover is white Tencel™ fabric, a material made with natural fibers for a breathable surface. Tencel™ is often favorably compared to cotton when it comes to coolness, comfort, and durability.

The top layer is 2 inches of Nolah AirFoam™, created to offer great amounts of pressure relief than traditional memory foam.

The next layer is an inch of resilient transition foam. The responsive bounce of high-resilience foam is more durable than latex, and makes it easier to move at night.

The high-density base foam evenly supports the body across the sleep surface and reinforces the top layers.

The SoftFlex mattress cover and the grid-like comfort layer creates a responsive surface with a medium feel. This gives the surface a bouncy feel, as the material is quick to flex under the body and snap back into shape.

We surveyed hundreds of people on what they thought about the Purple Mattress, here is what some had to say:

Michael J: We’ve had our original Purple mattress for over a month but knew the first night we made the right decision.

Marilyn J: The mattress, sheets and mattress cover have been just okay. I was hoping for better – my sleep has not improved and I still have muscle soreness when I wake up.

Thomas P: I have had the best sleep do my life on this mattress, I am sure every other review says the same but it is true. There are some issues with the mattress, but it is just the both gritty, but other than the minuscule problems it is a great mattress.

Every Purple bed contains a top layer of Purple Grid™, a responsive material that is both soft and supportive to minimize pressure build-up. The Purple Grid™’s design has more than 1,800 air channels, guaranteeing a cool night’s rest.

When you lie down on the Purple Mattress, the grid yields to your hips and shoulders, cradling them for maximum pressure relief. The grid flexes less under your back to maintain support, ensuring a healthy spinal alignment. Two layers of poly-foam support the Purple Grid™, promoting a longer-lasting mattress.

The Aurora features copper infusions and gel memory foam, so you’re going to notice two things when you lie down on it: coolness and contouring. The gel and copper help pull body heat away from you to ensure adequate temperature regulation all night.

Meanwhile, neither copper nor gel reduces memory foam’s contouring power. So you can still expect to get all the adaptability of traditional memory foam without the lack of temperature control.

Some of the hundreds of people who reviewed the Aurora Hybrid by Brooklyn Bedding had this to say:

Margarito M: So far it’s been a really great mattress

Linda G: I got this mattress because it was rated very high for cooling. It Was not cool. The cover felt cool, but are we supposed to sleep on the bare mattress? No. As soon as you put on a mattress protector and bottom sheet, the “cooling” cover did nothing.

Lori R: I was very hesitant in purchasing this costly mattress and was willing to return it promptly if it did not perform as expected or as reviewed by other customers. I have to say that I’m blown away with this mattress and the comfort. I wake up refreshed from an excellent night sleep with no lower back or hip pain.

CopperFlexTM memory foam with TitanCoolTM technology keeps you cool as a cucumber all night. The copper infusions also create a hostile environment for mold, mildew, dust mites, and more. That means sleepers with allergies can sleep easy on this bed.

Underneath the cooling comfort layer is a layer of TitanFlexTM foam. The Aurora comes in three firmnesses (soft, medium, and firm). Whatever choice you make will determine how firm the TitanFlexTM layer is.

Your firmness selection also determines what kind of transition foam you get. The soft and medium firmnesses come with a gel swirl foam layer. Meanwhile, the firm version sports a layer of VariFlexTM transition foam.

At the bottom, a support core of up to 1,032 AscensionTM coils provides all the bounce and breathability of springs while offering way more adaptability than open coil systems.

The Layla is a copper-infused memory foam mattress. So it boasts superior coolness and contouring. This is also an extremely comfortable mattress for allergy sufferers. Copper infusions fight all kinds of common microbes that can flourish in your mattress, such as dust mites, mold, and bacteria.

The Layla is a flippable mattress, so its feel depends on which side you’re using. The firm side comes in around a 7 out of 10, while the soft side is around a 4. That makes the Layla a perfect mattress for almost every sleep position, from side sleepers to stomach sleepers and everyone in between.

We surveyed thousands of people to find out what they thought of theLayla Mattress, here are what some said:

Lucille: Was suprised by the way it was delivered, but suprise was soon replaced by enjoyment. if you need a good nights sleep this mattress is for you. Zzzzzz.

Jamie: First day I noticed it sloped down where I lay my head so I then put it the other way so the slope would be where the feet area are. I though it just needed time.

Suzanne M: My husband had several joints replaced along with back & neck surgeries. He laughs for joy when he comes to bed. He sleeps great and wakes up refreshed. As for me with sciatica, I wake up refreshed and without pain.

Starting with the soft side up, the Layla’s first layer is a plush copper-gel memory foam comfort layer. This layer helps wick away body heat and sweat. And it’s also the layer that fights bacterial and mold growth in your mattress.

The next layer is the max airflow support foam. This foam features deep channeling to maximize cooling air circulation. It also has zoned support, so each area of your body gets the correct mix of lift and pressure relief.

Up next, the core support foam helps keep you lifted on top of the sleep surface, especially the softer side. It also minimizes bounce and motion transfer, making the Layla the perfect mattress for those who like a stable, non-bouncy bed.

Finally, another layer of firmer copper-gel makes up the Layla’s firm side. All this comfort is wrapped in a zippable cover that can be easily removed and tossed in the wash. This is perfect for allergy sufferers who want to be able to get rid of pollen and dust on a regular basis.

Side sleepers may find the Bear Mattress too firm, but back and stomach sleepers will find this mattress greatly rejuvenating. For a softer bed, consider Bear’s Hybrid or Pro models.

The Bear Mattress’s cover is woven from with FDA-determined Celliant® technology, which turns your body heat into infrared energy to help your body recover.

While Bear Mattress does not have as much of a long of a track record of reviews as some of our other mattresses, we found plenty with something to say, here are a few:

Doug D: I’ve slept on BEAR’S Original — Hybrid for a month. I’ve got my aches and pains, but some are now less. I don’t toss & turn nearly as much. I’ll never looking back on my number bed – ugh! This bear gets more rest in my new “den.” I’m very glad I didn’t get a mattress thicker than the 10″ this comes in.

Kelly A: Bed was of good quality, but more firm than medium-firm for my partner and I (back/side sleeper; side/stomach sleeper). Return process went pretty smoothly. Would recommend for those looking for a nice firm mattress!

Cynthis S: Great for growing athletic teenager! My growing son loves and he’s sleeping much better

The Bear mattress contains three layers of CertiPUR-US® certified foam. The 2-inch top layer of graphite-gel memory foam removes excess body heat while conforming to the body to relieve pressure points. The 3-inch responsive transitional foam balances support and make it easier to move at night. The 5-inch foam base layer provides durability for long-lasting performance.
