Need suggestions, I am drown in the restless nights

Mattress Talk 3) Needs & Personal Preferences

Hi,

My wife and I have been hunting a queen mattress under 1500CAD, but has failed everything we tried… It’s been few months since our last good sleep I guess… Very exhausted… Could someone suggest good options for us?

Sleeping position: combination (back-70%, side-30%)
Weight: 74kg/163lb and 50kg/110lb
Location: CANADA

Mattress history:
The first mattress we tried was Emma Performance Hybrid, which immediately failed as its rock slab like firmness and too foamy/textureless surface. This experience steered our decision to softer option that was Silk and Snow hybrid Plush. But our hips and shoulders sank too much due to its excessive(for us!) softness then that caused spinal misalignment with pain at lower back and neck. Finally, we have been testing Silk and Snow Organic Hybrid Firm for a few nights. This feels… as hard as Emma but with textured top layer. It makes my hands and arms lightly numb/hyper sensitive… needless to say no good for our shoulders when we lie on our side.

We found a good feeling option that was Beautyrest Micaela but it cost 2100CAD for a queen…

What mattresses should we look at next?

Hello taikey.

Welcome to our Mattress Forum. :slight_smile:

Since you are both on the lighter side, the “Firm” organic models often feel like a floor because you aren’t heavy enough to engage the springs. The numbness in your arms is a classic sign that the mattress is too firm for your shoulders.

Under $1500 CAD, there are still some solid options that bridge the gap between that “rock slab” feel and the “sinking” feeling of a plush hybrid.

I’d start with GhostBed, who is one of our Trusted Members. Their Comfort Hybrid and Signature mattresses may be a fit.

Another Trusted Member you may want to review is Memory Foam Comfort.

Outside of our Trusted Members, you might want to look at…

Hamuq: This is a Canadian-made pocket coil hybrid. It is generally more responsive and “springy” than the foam-heavy Emma or Silk & Snow, which might give you the support you need without that dead-foam feel.

Since you liked the Beautyrest Micaela, you might want to look for mattresses that use a “medium” pocket coil system with a breathable quilted top rather than a thick memory foam layer.
