Choosing the right bed doesn't need to be complicated
Support first. Then feel.
Mattress shopping is full of noise — layers, zones, materials — but very little clarity about what actually matters. Comfort is immediate; support is what determines how a mattress performs for years. Get support right, and everything else becomes easier to choose.
Explore the support technologies
Once you understand the support underneath, everything else becomes easier to choose.
Foam — comfort layer, not a support system
Foam cushions and shapes how a bed feels — firm, medium or plush. It isn't designed to carry your body's structural support.
- Determines surface feel — firm, medium or plush
- Comfort materials fatigue over time and aren't relied on for support
- This is why indentations and body impressions occur
- Can restrict airflow and retain heat or moisture as it fatigues
Power Coil
An enhanced version of the traditional open coil system, built for structural stability.
- Designed for structural stability and long-term spinal alignment
- Reinforced posture bars support heavier pressure zones
- Enhanced edge support reduces roll-off and increases usable sleep space
Pocket Coil
Individually wrapped springs that respond independently to your body.
- Reduces partner disturbance and enhances comfort responsiveness
- Designed to provide both comfort and support
- Leans towards a more contouring, comfort-focused feel

Find Your Perfect Bed
Start with the right support, then fine-tune how it feels.
Step 1: Select Your Support System
This determines long-term support, performance and value.
Step 2: Choose Your Comfort Feel
This fine-tunes how it feels. Feel does not affect your price. We believe your body can adapt to any feel. What your body cannot adapt to is lack of support.
Best of Both uses a universal, balanced feel.
You choose the support. We take care of the feel — Universal Feel recommends Lylax beds only.
