Let’s break it down into simple terms to help you make an informed decision that can transform your sleep quality and, by extension, your daily energy levels.
Spinal Alignment and Support
One of the most critical aspects of mattress selection is the support it provides to your spine.
Firm mattresses are often recommended for back and stomach sleepers as they offer a stable support system that maintains natural spinal alignment. This reduces the risk of waking up with back pain or discomfort.
On the other hand, soft mattresses can be a haven for side sleepers. The extra “give” in a soft mattress accommodates the hips and shoulders, aligning the spine correctly when lying on your side.
However, it's not just about sleep position; weight also plays a role.
Heavier individuals might find that a firm mattress provides better support, preventing the feeling of sinking too deeply into the mattress, which can misalign the spine.
Conversely, lighter individuals may prefer the cushioning of a soft mattress.
Durability and Lifespan
Investing in a mattress is a significant decision, and understanding the longevity of your purchase is essential.
Typically, firm mattresses have a longer lifespan because they are less prone to sagging over time. The dense and tightly packed materials in a firm mattress resist the indentations that softer mattresses might develop, especially in areas under continuous pressure from body weight.
While providing luxurious comfort and excellent pressure relief, soft mattresses might require more frequent replacement if the materials start to compress and lose their supportive properties.
This is something to consider if you’re looking for a mattress that will maintain its comfort and support for many years.
Comfort, Pressure Relief, and Temperature Regulation
Soft mattresses excel at providing pressure relief, which is particularly beneficial for those with joint pain or conditions like arthritis.
The cushioning effect of a soft mattress cradles the body’s contours, reducing pressure points and promoting a more restful sleep.
However, temperature regulation is another vital factor to consider.
Firm mattresses typically facilitate better airflow around the body, staying cooler throughout the night. This can be a significant advantage if you tend to sleep hot.
Soft mattresses, due to their enveloping nature, might retain more body heat, potentially leading to discomfort for some sleepers.

Police recently shared about the scam in which victims receive a call to their landline phone, by someone pretending to be a Police officer and providing a fake badge number.
In recent weeks, 18 Aucklanders have allegedly been duped out of more than a quarter of a million dollars.
Detective Senior Sergeant Craig Bolton, from Auckland City’s Financial Crime Unit, says victims are told a story about needing their assistance with an investigation.
“The scam will always involve this so-called officer asking for financial information or asking you to withdraw cash to be collected as part of an investigation into banks,” he says.
On Monday, real Police officers caught up with the scammer following a foot chase through central Auckland.
Detective Senior Sergeant Bolton says a 25-year-old UK national was taken into custody.
Today, he will face the Auckland District Court on 22 charges of obtains by deception, attempting to obtain by deception and escaping custody.
Police will be opposing his bail.
“We will allege in court that this man, who only arrived in New Zealand in early June, was on his way at the time to collect more cash from a previous victim,” Detective Senior Sergeant Bolton says.
“Instead, real detectives turned up at the victim’s doorstep to advise him he was about to be scammed out of $20,000 in cash.
“Financial Crime investigators from all three policing districts' fraud teams in Tāmaki Makaurau have been working together to piece together this offending, and this is a great outcome.”
Aucklanders who fell victim of the scam were aged between 56 and 90, with the majority over 80.
“This man’s alleged actions betrayed the good-will of vulnerable and elderly members of our community,” Detective Senior Sergeant Bolton says.
The offender has victims from right across Auckland, with a total of $297,700 in cash lost.
Detective Senior Sergeant Bolton says enquiries are ongoing, and Police will work to recover as much of the cash as possible.
Please remember:
- Police will never call to ask you for bank details, pin numbers or passwords
- Police do not offer prize money
- Police will not ask you to go to a bank to withdraw money
- If you receive a call out of the blue of a similar nature: challenge the caller to identify themselves, ask for their details.
- Hang up, contact 105 to verify the ID and request the officer to contact you
- If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
