When you go to your local mattress store, they want you to believe that a great mattress will cost $2,000-$4,000! But a new crop of mattress startups is changing that. See how much you could save.

It’s where we spend one-third of our lives, yet it’s amazing how cheap we’ll be and how we’ll sacrifice comfort to save a few dollars when it comes to buying a proper mattress. But, along with simply having a good night’s sleep, not having the proper support can lead to back and neck problems that can linger for life and contribute to other health issues.

AND, there’s never been a better time to buy a mattress. Why? Because of how new innovative online startups are disrupting this billion dollar industry.

In short, these online companies have uncovered the truths of Big Mattress companies. For decades, these companies have been cutting quality, confusing customers, and reaching for more profits.

Yet with incentivizing and money-saving details like flat pricing, free shipping, and trial periods, many new-age mattress companies are catching wind.

But where do you start? As much as the Internet is your best tool for finding and comparing these brands, research can be laborious considering the number of options available. So our team has ranked some of the standout companies to aid you in your search. Here are our rankings of 2017:

1. Tuft & Needle

What stands out immediately about this innovative company is its 100-night sleep trial, which gives customers plenty of time to see if they’re getting better sleep on what’s being heralded as the most comfortable mattress you can buy at the starting price of $325. If not, you can donate it and get a full refund. Tuft & Needle offers free shipping, but you can also buy through Amazon (for a shipping cost). The mattresses are made in the USA and include two layers of CertiPUR-US certified support foam for maximum comfort.

2. Cocoon by Sealy

Sealy is one of the most reputable names in the mattress industry. Cocoon is its revolutionary model, offering two firmness and cover options to meet even the most tailored needs. If you are looking for an affordable mattress solution that is made of top quality materials from a well-respected brand – this may be your best bet. Endorsed by Oprah, Cocoon is made of a variety of proprietary foams, meaning you truly can’t get this comfort anywhere else.

3. Hyphen

According to its website, Hyphen’s pledge is to “connect the worlds of day and night through amazing sleep.” Since the company owns its own factory in the US, it’s able to offer high quality products at prices well below the industry standard. A Queen starts at only $950, equipped with three layers of foam with the top layer and cover being infused with copper for an antimicrobial finish. Hyphen mattresses were designed to support an active lifestyle and should get you right on your way to adding a healthy bounce to your morning.

So, do you think your neighborhood mattress stores like these companies? Rest assured, they do not. That’s why we’ve scoured the top consumer resources, websites, and other sources to compile this list of the best mattresses on the market that won’t cost you the price of a decent used car.

Like anything, it’s always a good idea to be aware of the latest research. We recommend comparing at least 3 or 4 options before making a final decision. Doing a search online is typically the quickest, most thorough way to discover all the pros and cons you need to keep in mind.
