Product Research: Our Process

At Best Sleep Society, we carefully analyze mattress features to understand how they affect sleep quality. Our research process helps us evaluate comfort, support, and durability. This guide provides insight into how we assess the sleep experience.
Evaluating Comfort and Support
Our marking matrix is a detailed scoring system that evaluates each mattress based on critical aspects like comfort, support, durability, and temperature regulation. Expert sleep testers conduct an extensive analysis that considers various body types and sleep positions, ensuring comprehensive and relevant ratings for a wide audience.
Long-Term Performance Assessment
As mattresses age, they may undergo wear and tear, potentially affecting their initial comfort and support. To address this, our long-term analysis includes feedback from users who have slept on the mattresses for extended periods. This allows us to evaluate how well the products perform in real-world use and whether they maintain their shape, support, and overall quality over time.
Why We Look at Additional Services
In addition to our in-house tests and analysis, we thoroughly evaluate customer service, warranty policies, and setup and delivery ease. These factors play a crucial role in overall consumer satisfaction. A positive experience from purchase to longevity reflects a brand's commitment to quality and customer care, completing our comprehensive product research approach.

Construction

1. Antimicrobial cover
This innovative antimicrobial cover inhibits the growth of unwanted bacteria or mites. Easy to remove and machine washable cover ensures long-lasting freshness for your bed. 

2. 1.5” Premium Gel Memory Foam
This premium memory foam infused with cooling gel offers a soothing sleep and alleviates pressure points, delivering unparalleled durability and a supportive and comfortable sleeping experience.

3. 2” Transition Foam

Reinforces the overall support and minimizes motion across the mattress for a restful night’s sleep.

4. 7.5” Premium Support Layer
The base layer serves as a durable foundation made of high-density foam, offering a robust base for enhanced mattress stability and long-lasting support.

Comfort

The S&S mattress delivers exceptional comfort. The multilayer memory foam construction creates a cozy place to rest your head, relieving pressure across key points of the body. The premium gel memory foam layer is specifically designed to promote even spinal alignment, reducing back pain and helping muscles recover. It’s so easy to fall asleep – and stay asleep – when your body is perfectly cradled! The transitional performance foam and premium support layers serve as durable, stabilizing foundations for the body, offering unparalleled support by holding the spine in a neutral position.

Firmness

The Silk & Snow S&S Medium-Firm scores 5.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale, leaning towards the softer side, but without compromising the support or stability of the mattress. This allows side and back sleepers who seek additional cushioning from their mattress to experience more comfort while maintaining optimal spinal alignment. This sweet spot firmness also helps improve posture, offering a balanced and supportive feel. 

Motion Transfer

If you share your bed with someone, experiencing too much motion can affect your sleep experience negatively. The Silk & Snow Medium-Firm mattress excels in motion isolation just as well as the firm model, minimizing the disruptions to your beauty sleep. With a brilliant construction that does a phenomenal job at absorbing motion, you will likely feel no movement of your partner/pet/kid, and achieve long, deep slumbers all night long.

Cooling

Memory foams tend to trap heat more often than hybrids, but with an ingenious mattress construction, Silk & Snow S&S Medium-Firm has ensured superior breathability and cooling. With gel-infused foams and an innovative cover, this mattress provides a soothing sleeping surface to fall in love with.

Edge Support

The durable, premium construction of this mattress reinforces great edge support, so you can sit or lie on the edge of the mattress comfortably without slipping or falling off. The Silk & Snow S&S mattress lasts a long time with no sagging and maintains its structural integrity quite well.

Sinkage and Responsiveness

The medium-firm construction of this mattress offers a balanced feel of sinking and bounce, maintaining the Goldilocks zone throughout. You will have no trouble getting in and out of bed, and will not experience any “stuck” movement on it, which is a great sign of its stability and durability. As the mattress is highly responsive, it swiftly adapts to your movements, offering a seamless experience.

How does it suit different sleeping positions?

Side Sleepers

For side sleepers, this mattress offers optimal firmness and comfort, with excellent pressure relief that alleviates pain from key areas. The body-conforming layers provide a cradling feel while maintaining spinal neutrality. The right amount of bounce and support will prevent their body from sinking too deep into the mattress, and ensure a rejuvenating sleep night after night.

Back Sleepers

Back sleepers will admire the stellar support provided by this mattress, with added comfort that comes from an extra layer. This mattress does a great job of maintaining a neutral spine and alleviating pressure from key areas such as shoulders and hips.

Stomach Sleepers

Stomach sleepers will generally prefer a firmer mattress to prevent their hips from sinking too deep into the mattress, and to keep their midsection aligned. The Silk & Snow S&S Firm is a better alternative for them to receive the optimal support they seek.

Combination Sleepers

Combination sleepers also prefer deeper contouring for their body like side sleepers, and this mattress offers a cushiony feel and impressive pressure relief for them. Some combination sleepers can also consider Silk & Snow Hybrid Plush and Organic Plush which are both excellent choices promoting comfort, support, and cushioning for combination sleepers.

Lightweight Sleepers

Lightweight sleepers will love the soothing, cushiony feel of this mattress that does not compromise the support they need. While ensuring optimal spinal alignment, this mattress provides ample pressure relief for them, for a deep, restful slumber. As there is minimal motion transfer, they will not feel any movement even while sharing their bed with a heavier individual.

Heavy People

For heavier individuals, the Silk & Snow S&S Firm may be a better alternative, as it provides a firmer feel with minimal sinkage, offering more stability for them.

Should You Buy Silk & Snow S&S Medium-Firm Mattress?

The Silk & Snow S&S Medium-Firm offers great comfort and support for side and back sleepers, and lightweight sleepers who prefer a medium-firm mattress. With exceptional pressure relief that pampers the muscles, this mattress will revive your sleep journey to wake up refreshed every morning. You can significantly improve your posture as this mattress maintains a neutral spine and prevents strains and arching. As the mattress effectively absorbs motion, you will have fewer sleep disturbances, leading to significantly improved sleep quality. 

The Silk & Snow S&S Medium-Firm mattress outperforms similar range competitors like the Douglas Original, Emma Original, and The Nectar Mattress, offering unbeatable value for money and comfort like never before. You can rest well and rest easy knowing they offer a 365-night trial and a 15-year warranty.
