The best mattress for couples has four key features: motion isolation, edge support, temperature regulation, and noiselessness. Motion isolation keeps your partner’s movement from disturbing your sleep. Edge support gives you full use of the mattress without that sinking feeling near the sides. Temperature regulation helps both of you stay cool and comfortable. And a noiseless design means no creaks or squeaks. At Turmerry, we provide latex mattresses with these exact features, and much more. Check out our best mattresses for couples with free shipping and a 120-day risk-free trial period!
Sharing a bed should bring you closer, not keep you up all night. That’s why our mattresses are made with clean, natural materials like organic latex, cotton, wool, and recycled steel, combined with just the right balance of comfort and support. Free from the harmful levels of chemicals often found in synthetic options like memory foam, our mattresses are certified safe and trusted by GOLS, GOTS, OEKO-TEX, eco-INSTITUT, FSC, and LGA. Whether you’re side by side or shifting through the night, Turmerry helps you both sleep soundly, with peace of mind.
The Organic Latex Mattress combines multiple Dunlop latex layers with a 7-zone support system that relieves pressure in a targeted fashion. It’s especially helpful for couples with different sleep styles, as each side gets the support they need without compromise. Perforated latex keeps air moving, so you both stay cool. A layer of natural New Zealand wool adds moisture-wicking and flame resistance, topped with a soft, breathable organic cotton cover that zips off for easy cleaning.
The Latex Hybrid Mattress blends the comfort of foam with the bounce and support of springs. It features a 2-inch layer of FSC-certified Talalay latex over an 8-inch pocketed coil core from Leggett & Platt®. The medium firmness works well for all sleep positions, offering pressure relief and support where it counts - especially around the back, hips, and shoulders. For couples, the responsive coils isolate motion, while the breathable latex and coil system work together to keep both sleepers cool through the night.
The Egg Crate Mattress features an all-foam design topped with 2.4 inches of egg crate foam for next-level comfort. Shaped like an egg carton, this layer contours closely to the body, easing pressure points and helping prevent bed sores, which is pretty useful for anyone who stays in one position for long periods. Its even weight distribution works for all sleep positions, and for couples, the foam surface absorbs movement well, so one person’s shift won’t disturb the other. It's a simple yet effective option for soft, pressure-relieving sleep.
The RV Mattress brings comfort and clean materials to life on the road. Built with organic Dunlop latex, natural New Zealand wool, and a breathable organic cotton cover, it offers the same restful support you'd expect at home. It’s available in nearly 20 standard and RV-specific sizes, so you can find the right fit for your space. And for couples traveling together, it delivers quiet, contouring support without motion transfer or overheating, so every stop feels like home.
The Dual Side Flippable Mattress gives you two firmness levels in one smart design - Medium/Firm on one side, Firm/Extra Firm on the other. If one side doesn’t feel right, just flip it. It’s ideal for couples with differing comfort preferences on different nights. You’ll also get the same 7-zone support system and breathable, eco-friendly materials as our Organic Latex Mattress. Comfort, versatility, and durability all in one.
The DIY Hybrid Mattress is built for those who like to customize their comfort. It combines an 8-inch Texas Pocket Spring QuadCoil® support core with a 7-zone Dunlop latex comfort layer, available in 2-inch or 4-inch thicknesses. The zippered organic cotton cover makes it easy to swap and adjust layers, giving couples the flexibility to fine-tune firmness on each side or adapt as needs change. It’s a hands-on approach to getting the perfect sleep setup.
The Bigg+ Mattress is designed for sleepers over 230 lbs., with lasting comfort in mind. It features three extra-firm Dunlop latex layers and a customizable top layer (medium, firm, extra-firm). With 7-zone support and a weight capacity of up to 1,100 lbs., it’s a strong, stable choice for couples who need more from their mattress. Natural wool helps regulate temperature and adds fire protection, while the breathable organic cotton cover keeps the surface cool and clean.

Choosing the best mattress for couples can be an exciting yet challenging task. After all, a good night's sleep is essential for a healthy and happy relationship. To help you make the right choice, we've put together this comprehensive buyer's guide below that covers all the key factors you need to consider. So, let's dive in and discover how to find the mattress of your dreams!
To successfully sort through the many mattresses available today and find the one that is perfect for you and your partner, you'll have to consider these factors:
First things first, let's consider the mattress size. Think about the space you both need to stretch out comfortably. Popular mattress options for couples include Queen (60" x 80"), King (76" x 80"), California King (72" x 84"), Split King, Split Queen, and Split California King.
The Queen size works well for average-sized bedrooms, while King and California King provide more room for those who like to sprawl. Split mattresses allow each person to choose their own firmness level on their side of the bed.
Next, think about the right firmness level to accommodate both you and your partner's sleeping preferences. It's important to strike a balance between comfort and support. If you have different preferences, consider a mattress that offers dual firmness options (like a dual-sided bed or a split bed).
Typically, back and stomach sleepers benefit from a firmer mattress, as it promotes proper spinal alignment and prevents excessive sinking. Conversely, side sleepers find a slightly softer surface more useful in alleviating pressure points and enhancing overall comfort.
If you or your partner tends to toss and turn throughout the night, motion isolation becomes a critical factor. You don't want your sleep to be disrupted every time your partner moves.
Look for mattresses using memory foam, latex, and/or pocketed coils - materials that are good at absorbing motion and preventing it from spreading across the bed. This way, you can sleep peacefully without disruptions.
To ensure an even more peaceful sleeping experience, it's best to choose a mattress that minimizes noise. Memory foam and latex mattresses are known for their quiet nature, allowing you and your partner to change positions without causing any disturbances. Hybrids are also kinda good at being noiseless, thanks to the pocketed coils they use.
On the other hand, innerspring mattresses with coil systems tend to produce more noise. So, if a silent sleep is what you're after, opt for a mattress that keeps things hushed and serene.
Maintaining a comfortable sleep temperature is vital for quality rest, especially when two people share a bed. Look for mattresses that excel in temperature regulation to avoid hot flashes or night sweats.
Latex and hybrid mattresses often have breathable materials that allow unrestricted airflow through them, helping you stay cool. You can also consider memory foam mattresses infused with cooling gel or designed with open-cell structures, as they are effective in dissipating heat.
Traditional memory foam mattresses aren't great at temperature regulation, though, as they retain and release body heat, which doesn't keep the mattress cool when you need it to.
Edge support is especially important for couples who enjoy utilizing the entire surface of the mattress. A mattress with solid edge support ensures stability and prevents the feeling of roll-off when you or your partner gets close to the edge. Hybrid and all-foam beds excel in providing strong edge support.
When you and your partner are in the market for a new mattress, it's important to prioritize peace of mind, especially in the long run. Seek out brands that provide generous trial periods, enabling you to test the mattress extensively within the familiar surroundings of your own home.
Equally significant is a reliable warranty, offering protection against manufacturing defects or premature sagging. Aim for a warranty period of at least 7-10 years, but remember to read the terms and conditions to fully understand what's covered.
Before making a final decision, take the time to read genuine reviews from other couples who have purchased the mattress you're considering.
Real-life experiences can provide valuable insights into comfort, durability, and overall satisfaction. Look for reviews that specifically mention how the mattress performs for couples, paying attention to things like motion isolation, edge support, temperature regulation, etc.
There are four popular mattress types you'll encounter when shopping. These are - latex, memory foam, hybrid, and innerspring mattresses. Here's the lowdown on what each one is, how it is made, and what the best version of it is for couples:
A latex mattress is made from natural rubber, which comes from the sap of rubber trees, tapped much like maple syrup. That sap is then processed into foam using one of two methods: Dunlop or Talalay. Dunlop latex is denser and more supportive, making it great for the base layers of a mattress. Talalay latex, on the other hand, goes through a few extra steps to make it lighter and more breathable. It's ideal for the top comfort layers.
In a typical all-foam latex bed, you’ll find a sturdy Dunlop core with softer Talalay layers on top. Sometimes, the top layer is also made of Dunlop latex. These beds are a fantastic pick for couples because they offer responsive support, minimal motion transfer, and don’t trap heat like some other materials. Plus, they're eco-friendly and long-lasting.
A memory foam mattress is made from a special type of polyurethane foam that’s been treated to respond to heat and pressure. Basically, it softens where your body presses down and slowly returns to shape when you move. This creates that signature “hugged” feeling memory foam is known for.
Most memory foam mattresses are layered, starting with a dense support foam at the base, topped with one or more softer memory foam layers for contouring and pressure relief. For couples, it’s a popular choice because it absorbs motion incredibly well, so if one of you tosses and turns, the other probably won’t feel a thing.
A hybrid mattress combines the best of both worlds: the support of an innerspring base with the comfort of foam or latex layers on top. At the core, you'll find a system of individually wrapped coils (also called pocketed springs), which move independently to reduce motion transfer and provide targeted support. Above the coils, there are usually one or more layers of memory foam, latex, or other comfort materials to offer cushioning.
The idea is to give you the bounce and breathability of a traditional spring mattress, with the contouring feel of foam or latex. For couples, hybrids strike a nice balance, offering good motion isolation, solid edge support, and enough responsiveness to keep both sleepers comfortable, regardless of their sleep style.
An innerspring mattress is the classic, tried-and-true type that most people grew up with. It’s built around a core of metal coils, which provide the main support. These coils can come in different designs—like Bonnell, offset, continuous, or pocketed—but the idea is the same: they compress under weight and push back to support your body. On top of the coils, there’s usually a layer or two of foam/fiber padding for some cushioning.
Innersprings are known for their bounce and breathability, thanks to all that airflow around the coils. They're also more affordable compared to other mattress types. For couples, however, they can be hit or miss. Innersprings are great if you like a more traditional, firmer feel and easy movement, but not ideal if motion transfer is a concern (unless you go with individually wrapped coils, which help with that).
A good mattress lays the foundation for great sleep, but the right bedding accessories can take things to the next level. If you’re looking to create a cozy bed that works for both of you, these are the extras worth considering.
Pillows are a great place to start. Everyone’s different, so it makes sense to pick pillows that match your individual needs, whether that’s memory foam for contouring, latex for bounce, or down for softness. The goal is to keep your head, neck, and spine aligned without sacrificing comfort.
Next up: mattress toppers. These come in handy if you want to tweak the feel of your bed without starting from scratch. Need a little more softness? Or maybe something firmer? A topper can help with that, and it’s an easy fix if you and your partner have slightly different preferences. We recommend going with a latex mattress topper for its many benefits.
When it comes to sheets and pillowcases, breathable materials like cotton, bamboo, or linen are solid choices. They feel good against the skin and help regulate temperature, which can make a big difference if one of you sleeps hot and the other doesn’t.
A good duvet or comforter adds that final layer of cozy warmth. Some couples even go with a split-duvet setup—basically two separate covers—so each person can control their own side. It sounds odd, but it’s surprisingly practical.
Don’t forget a mattress protector. It’s not the flashiest item, but it quietly does its job, keeping out spills, sweat, and allergens without changing how the mattress feels.
And if you’re into that tucked-in, cocooned feeling, a weighted blanket might be worth trying. It’s not for everyone, but some couples find it helps with relaxation. Just make sure it doesn’t trap too much heat.
These add-ons might seem small, but together, they can make a big difference in how well you sleep and how rested you feel in the morning.
If you and your partner like the same sleep setup—whether that’s firm or plush, cool or cozy—these standard sizes give you plenty of room to stretch out while sharing the same sleep surface.
The queen mattress is the go-to size for most couples. It’s 60 inches wide and 80 inches long, which offers a decent amount of personal space without taking over the bedroom. It works well if you don’t mind sleeping a little closer and your sleep styles are in sync.
If you want more room to move, or if one of you is a restless sleeper, a king size mattress steps things up. At 76 inches wide and 80 inches long, it’s basically like having two twin XLs side by side. Great for couples who love extra space without needing separate setups.
The California king mattress is a bit narrower than a standard king (at 72 inches wide) but adds extra length (at 84 inches long). It’s a solid pick if you or your partner is tall, or if your pets like to sprawl out at the foot of the bed. You still get plenty of space to share comfortably.
If you and your partner have different firmness needs, sleep temperatures, or bedtime routines, a split mattress might be the better call. These allow each person to customize their side without compromise.
Split queen mattresses aren’t as common as split kings, but they do exist. They’re essentially two narrower mattresses (30 inches each) joined under a shared cover. Perfect if you want a different feel but don’t have space for a king-sized bed.
This is the most popular option for couples with different preferences. A split king mattress is made of two twin XL mattresses (38 x 80 inches), each with its own firmness settings. Paired with an adjustable base, it gives each partner full control over their side, without bothering the other.
Similar to the standard split king, but longer and slightly narrower, the split California king mattress is ideal for tall couples who still want individual control. It’s a bit harder to find than a split king, but it's worth it if legroom and personalization are top priorities.
Aside from sleeping together on a mattress, it's important to take care of it occasionally. Proper maintenance ensures maximum durability and performance.
→ Regularly Rotate the Mattress: Make it a habit to rotate your mattress every three to six months. This helps ensure even wear and prevents sagging.
→ Use a Mattress Protector: Invest in a high-quality, waterproof mattress protector. This will safeguard your mattress against spills, stains, and allergens.
→ Keep It Clean: Vacuum your mattress regularly to remove impurities that are on it. If there are any spills or stains, spot clean them promptly using a mild detergent and water. Ensure the mattress is completely dry before putting the bedding back on.
→ Avoid Eating in Bed: Make it a rule to refrain from eating in bed. This reduces the risk of spills and discourages pests, keeping your mattress clean and free from food particles.
→ Protect Against Bed Bugs: Stay proactive in preventing bed bugs by conducting regular inspections of your mattress, bedding, and bedroom. If you notice any signs of bed bugs, seek professional assistance promptly.
→ Provide Proper Support: Ensure your mattress receives adequate support by using a sturdy bed frame or foundation. This helps prevent sagging and maintains the structural integrity of your mattress.
→ Air It Out: Every so often, remove all bedding and allow your mattress to air out. Open windows or use a fan to improve ventilation. This helps reduce moisture, keeping your mattress layers fresh.
→ Avoid Excessive Weight: Refrain from placing heavy objects or excessive weight on your mattress. Doing so can cause premature wearing. Also, avoid sitting on the edges way too often to prevent unnecessary strain.
→ Follow the Manufacturer’s Instructions: Read and adhere to the care instructions provided by the mattress manufacturer. This ensures you're following the recommended steps specific to your mattress model.
A medium to medium-firm mattress is usually the safest bet for the average couple. It strikes a nice balance, as it's supportive enough to keep your back aligned, but still cushioning enough to relieve pressure. It works well for most sleep styles, which makes it a solid choice if you and your partner have similar, but not identical, comfort needs.
Lightweight couples may find a medium-soft or soft mattress to be more comfortable. And heavyweight couples may need a firm or extra-firm mattress to better handle their body weight.
A latex mattress in a medium firmness level is the best mattress for couples. It’s supportive, responsive, cushioning, and naturally good at isolating motion, so you won’t feel every toss and turn from the other side of the bed. Go for one that’s 10 to 14 inches thick. And if it’s made from natural or organic latex, even better, as it’ll be naturally cooler, longer-lasting (15-20 year lifespan), and healthier for you both.
If you’re looking to splurge, a hybrid mattress with a natural latex comfort layer and pocketed coil support core is a standout choice. It gives you the best of both worlds - support from the coils, comfort from the latex, and that upscale, hotel-like feel from high-end materials. Look for extras like zoned support, edge support, organic certifications (GOLS, GOTS, OEKO-TEX, etc.), and a breathable design. A luxury mattress should feel fitting for both of you, and last for years without losing its edge.
Latex mattresses are one of the best picks for hot sleepers. They naturally breathe better than foam and don’t trap heat. For something even cooler, go with a hybrid that pairs latex or gel-infused memory foam with pocketed coils for airflow. Materials like organic cotton and natural wool in the cover also help wick away moisture. If one or both of you tend to overheat at night, a cooling mattress like this can make a big difference.
A queen-size mattress is the most popular choice for couples. It offers enough space for two without occupying the entire room. But if you’ve got more space to work with (or just want extra room to spread out), a king or California king gives you that added comfort. For couples with different sleep needs, a split king is the way to go. It lets each of you customize your side without compromise.
It's essential to know when it's time to bid farewell to your old mattress and welcome a new one into your life. Here are a few signs that indicate it's time for an upgrade:
If you regularly wake up with backaches, shoulder pain, joint pain, stiffness, and other such issues, it could be a sign that your mattress is no longer providing the necessary support required for your body.
If your mattress is sagging, has lumps, or shows signs of visible wear, it's time to consider a replacement. These issues can affect your sleep quality and comfort.
Over time, mattresses can accumulate allergens like dust mites, mold, pet dander, etc., triggering allergies and/or respiratory issues. If you notice an increase in these symptoms, it may be time to invest in a hypoallergenic mattress.
The best mattress sale days usually pop up around major holidays—think Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday. That’s when brands tend to roll out their biggest deals. But you’ll also find good discounts during new product launches or year-end clearances. If you’re not in a rush, it’s worth waiting for one of these windows to get the most value for your money.
Signing up for various mattress industry newsletters should help you stay in the loop when it comes to these things.
Very important. If one of you tends to toss, turn, or get up during the night, good motion isolation keeps that movement from rippling across the bed. It’s one of the biggest factors in making sure both people sleep undisturbed. Memory foam and latex do a great job here, and hybrids with pocketed coils are also solid - just avoid traditional innersprings, which tend to bounce more and transfer motion easily.
They can be, especially if you're both fans of the classic memory foam feel but want to avoid overheating. The gel helps draw heat away from the body, making it cooler than standard memory foam. Just keep in mind that not all gel-infused foam is created equal. Look for one with good density and real airflow features (like perforations or open-cell design) for better results. Pair it with breathable bedding and you’ve got a pretty good setup for two.
Yes, there are mattresses available that offer personalized firmness for each couple. These mattresses often have dual-sided designs or customizable firmness settings. This allows each partner to choose their preferred level of firmness, accommodating their individual comfort needs. It's an excellent choice for couples who have different firmness preferences and ensures both partners can enjoy a personalized sleep experience.
Absolutely. Go with a split adjustable setup if you're looking into adjustable mattresses. Each person can raise and lower their side independently, which is a game changer if you have different bed habits. Whether it’s reading, watching TV, easing snoring, or helping with back pain, adjustable bases give you more control. Just make sure your mattress is compatible. Latex, memory foam, and hybrids usually work well for this purpose.
Aim for something in the 10 to 14-inch range. That sweet spot gives you enough long-term support and comfort when sharing the bed every night. Thicker mattresses often have more layered materials, which can help with motion isolation and edge support. Make sure it pairs well with your bed frame so everything stays balanced and easy to get in and out of.
A double bed (also known as a full-size bed, measuring 54" x 75") can work in a pinch, but it’s a tight fit, as 54 inches of width leaves just 27 inches of space per person. That’s less than a crib mattress, which has 28 inches of width! It might be fine for short stays or smaller rooms, but for long-term comfort, especially if either of you moves around at night, upgrading to a queen or larger is a much better call.
Both have their perks. It really comes down to what kind of shopper you are. Buying online usually means better deals, longer trial periods, customizable options, and a wider range of choices. Plus, you can shop from your couch and skip the awkward sales pitch. On the flip side, in-store shopping lets you actually lie down on the mattress and get a feel for it before you commit. If you’re unsure about firmness or just want to test a few in person, trying it out first can be helpful. For many couples, a mix works best: test in-store, then buy online when you find the right deal.
