The Ten-part Mattress Method

  1. Construction
  2. Comfort
  3. Support
  4. Fit
  5. Movement
  6. Temperature
  7. Edge
  8. Ownership
  9. Value
  10. Decision

Our evaluation framework is informed by substantial hands-on product and service experience. Manufacturer specifications and policy terms are still treated as manufacturer-supplied information rather than our independent measurements.
