The 5 Best Full XL Mattresses Of 2023 For A More Comfortable Sleep

This hybrid mattress is the most sustainable and eco-friendly option on our list. Made with organic GOLS certified materials—including cotton, wool, and latex—it brings the best of both worlds together in supportive yet plush pick.

The layer of organic latex acts similar to memory foam to provide pressure relief and support as it contours to your body. The pocketed innersprings aids in this pressure point relief, while also providing lumbar support and reducing motion transfer, ideal for couples. Altogether, you can expect quality with every detail considered, down to the hand-done button tufting, which allows them to skip glue and added chemicals to hold everything together.

This mattress ships in a box after being rolled up and wrapped in plastic. There are no reports of off-gassing odor, and the brand does not use any extra packaging. The box breaks down easily and can be left on the curb for recycling pickup, while the plastic packaging does need to be thrown in the garbage. 

What Customers Say:

The Natural Escape mattress boasts a five out of five star rating, with over 700 total reviews. Users love it for its natural latex build, as well as the medium-firmness, which offers just the right amount of support, without sacrificing comfort. The only drawbacks for some were the higher price point and the weight (moving this mattress is definitely a two person job).

The Sedona Elite mattress offers superior support through its use of copper-infused memory foam, which provides sleepers with full-body cushioning and pressure relief. That, coupled with the 8-inch core of individually encased coils, ensures both edge and lumbar support—so you don’t have to worry about any sagging or back pain. Medium-firmness means it’s a good option for back and stomach sleepers, as it helps maintain cervical and overall back alignment throughout the night. 

Memory foam mattresses have a reputation for running warm, but copper is naturally cooling. This mattress is especially temperature-regulating, thanks to the brand’s proprietary Glaciotex cover, which uses a cooling fiber infusion to help maintain your body’s temperature while you sleep.

It will arrive in a box with two layers of plastic to keep the mattress protected and compressed. The plastic wrap has to be tossed into the garbage, but the box is recyclable. Once it’s unwrapped, Brooklyn Bedding recommends waiting three to five hours to let it fully expand. While the brand does contribute to multiple charitable endeavors, this mattress is not necessarily a sustainable choice.

What Customers Say:

With over 200 reviews of this mattress on their website, it boasts a rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars. Plenty of reviewers are thrilled by the support it gives (while still maintaining a comfortable level of softness), and its natural cooling properties. Some people report an off-gassing smell, but they also say it dissipates over time.

The 10” graphite-infused memory foam mattress combines 7 inches of high density foam with 1.5 inches of graphite foam and 1.5 inches of transitional foam—all CertiPUR-US® certified to skip harmful toxins. This unique combo of various memory foams with different densities allows the mattress to provide both support and pressure relief.

If you’re a hot sleeper, you’ll love the natural thermal conductivity of this mattress, coupled with the airiness of the breathable cover. The lower profile of the 10-inch mattress is also great for small spaces.

While the mattress conveniently arrives compressed and rolled in a box, the brand recommends giving it up to 48 hours for full expansion before using.

What Customers Say:

Shoppers praise the comfort of this mattress, as well as the quality. While some feel it lacks edge support, it earns special praise for the lack of an off-gassing smell.

The limited selection of full XL mattresses, especially those worth the splurge, means it might be harder to find the right firmness. Adding a mattress topper is an easy way to get even more pressure point relief and added comfort without entirely replacing your mattress.

This topper is made with 2 inches of GOLS certified organic Dunlop latex, so you can rest easy knowing you’re snoozing on a natural and sustainable product. Plus, the GOTS certified organic cotton zippered cover can be easily removed for easy cleans (and it's even machine-washable).

It comes rolled up in a recyclable box and is typically shipped within one to three days of your order.

What Customers Say:

This mattress has a perfect rating after more than 200 reviews on the My Green Mattress website. Shoppers note that they’ve experienced pressure point relief thanks to this topper, as well as improved comfort across the board. One reviewer writes, "I am loving this mattress topper! It’s so so comfortable and I am no longer breathing in toxic chemicals while I sleep A Will definitely be looking into their mattresses in the future!"

A few people do mention that it is a bit too firm for their needs, so keep that in mind if you prefer a softer topper. With that in mind, reviewers also comment on the ease of the return process.
