Better sleep for a better relationship.
In the early stages of a relationship, you'd likely sleep on a hardwood floor if it meant staying snuggled close to your partner. But as time passes, quality sleep begins to regain priority—at which point, it's a good time to consider upgrading to one of the best mattresses for couples.
While sleeping in the same bed as your partner has its benefits, finding a mattress you both love can feel daunting. If one of you prefers a soft mattress but the other needs firmer support, hunting for something that makes everyone happy takes a little more effort.
The good news is, there are a ton of great options out there! We did the legwork to narrow it down and rounded up a few of the best mattresses for couples on the market today that will have you snoozing happily ever after.

What type of mattress is best for couples?
We spoke with Shelby Harris, PsyD, board-certified Behavioral Sleep Medicine (BSM) expert, for her take on the best beds for couples. "One of the most common sleep disturbances couples experience is waking due to motion from a sleep partner switching positions or moving throughout the night," she explains. "Memory foam and hybrid mattresses tend to be the best at motion isolation, which reduces the transfer of movement from your partner."
A medium-firm feel tends to work best for a wide variety of sleep styles, and having good edge support gives both partners more room. "Edge support determines how well the perimeters of a mattress can support weight, so it can allow couples to use the full surface of the bed," Harris adds.
Lastly, she recommends considering your temperature preferences. "If you or your partner tend to sleep hot, look for a mattress that promotes airflow or is made with cooling gel foam. Hybrid beds tend to sleep cooler too since their coils inside promote airflow." In addition to hybrid coils or gel foam, you'll also find a few latex mattresses on this list, which provide a naturally cool surface.
If you and your partner have very different ideas of comfort or temperature, you may also consider a split king model. A split king is made by pushing two twin XL mattresses together so you and your S.O. can each pick your ideal firmness and materials without a sleep divorce.

"I sleep on this bed with my husband every night, and we love it! It is a firmer bed, so if that’s a deal breaker for one of you it might not be a fit. But I can confirm that the edge support is awesome and it lives up to its temperature regulating claims." —Jamey Powell, tester
How to choose the right mattress for you and your partner.
Focus on motion control: If you're on different sleep schedules, or one of you moves around frequently during the night, memory foam or hybrid foam models are your best bet. The motion absorption of these materials helps prevent the non-mover from feeling every little shift and shimmy, much more so than a classic innerspring mattress would.
Consider a split king: While it's possible to meet in the middle and find a bed you both love, a split king allows you to each customize your own mattress and create a setup that's tailored to each of your needs. Just be sure you choose the same height to avoid any wonky cracks or ledges in your combined bed!
Don't rule out adjustability: Adjustable beds and frames, especially for split models, are a big help for folks who need a little elevation, like snorers or folks with chronic pain. When it comes to snoring, a bed that raises at the head can be a big help.
"If you or your partner are routinely being kept awake at night due to one snoring, they should be evaluated by a sleep doctor to rule out sleep apnea or other sleep disorders that can lead to snoring," adds Harris.
Read the fine print: Picking a bed together requires patience and empathy for your partners' sleep needs. You'll want to be sure that the sleep trial and return policy is something you feel good about (and won't start any arguments!).
