The 7 Best Mattresses For Stomach Sleepers (2024)

Out of all its mattresses, it appears that the Moonlight Mattress is best for side and stomach sleepers. The combination of memory foams and coils conforms to your body’s position and each one of the mattress’s layers offers even support, keeping your body aligned and protected from morning aches and pains.

At the time of publication, the HELIX Moonlight Mattress has acquired over 1,000 reviews, and an average rating of 4.4 out of a potential 5 stars. One customer notes the mattress is “soft enough to sleep on my side, but supportive enough for me to sleep on my back and stomach as well,” while a self-proclaimed back, side, and stomach sleeper proclaimed, “after many moons sleeping on this mattress, I must say that I am thoroughly impressed and pleased with my purchase.”

HELIX products are shipped via Fed Ex, and each item in your order ships separately from the rest. The mattress comes rolled and compressed in a box “the size of a pair of golf clubs,” and will be dropped off at your doorstep. While not an ideal shipping situation by sustainability standards, reviewers note your order should arrive rather quickly and the mattress is easy to set up.

As its name would suggest, the Adapt mirrors your movements. It’s pressure relieving, to ensure you don’t wake up with aches and pains, and motion canceling, so if you sleep with a partner, neither of you will be disturbed by the other. The mattress is also temperature-regulating, thanks to its high-performance cooling yarns that enhance the bedding’s breathability.

TEMPUR-PEDIC mattresses come highly rated. There are over 6,700 reviews on the brand’s website to date, with an average of 4.5 out of a potential 5-star rating overall. One stomach and side sleeper claims the mattress is “super comfortable no matter the sleeping position” and that the Adapt medium “has been perfect for [my wife and me]. We no longer have morning back pain after an excellent night's sleep.” That said, customers do note there is a new mattress smell but are quick to clarify that it does subside within a few days or so.

TEMPUR-PEDIC mattresses are delivered via in-home delivery. Once you’ve placed your order, the company will contact you to schedule your free white glove mattress delivery, which will take place a few weeks after you’ve placed your order. The brand’s shipping agents will deliver, as well as set up your new mattress, removing all packing materials in the process. They’ll also remove your old mattress and box spring, upon request.

Beyond its impressive sourcing and quality, WinkBeds are made with materials that enhance your overall sleep quality, especially if you’re a side or stomach sleeper. The aforementioned pocket springs, for instance, are designed to flex independently of each other, so that they can move with you and support the pressure points that need extra TLC throughout the night. Included gel foam is motion-canceling, which reduces motion transfer, while the mattress’s foam enhancement offers the lumbar spine targeted support, keeping it aligned as you sleep.

The WinkBed has over 8,000 reviews on the brand’s website alone, with an average 4.8-star rating to boot.

As far as we can tell, the biggest downside to this mattress is its delivery. Unfortunately, there is no installation process included with your purchase. WinkBed mattresses are delivered in a single, recyclable box to the ground floor of your door or apartment complex.

Pros

Cons

Credit is also due to the hybrid mattress’s construction, which includes both foam and steel coils. Together, these materials work to not only contour to the shape of your body in your preferred sleep position, but to pick up the slack in other areas, like pressure points, that require support throughout the night. This is especially helpful for side and back sleepers, whose sleep positions often result in an uneven distribution of weight, causing them to wake up with aches and pains.

As far as delivery goes, Dream Cloud Sleep mattresses get delivered to your doorstep in a box. While the setup is not included in your delivery, it’s a simple process. All you have to do is slide the mattress out of its packaging and unroll it flat onto the base of your bed. It will be ready to use in 24 hours.

Pros

Beyond its sustainability wins, the Awara Natural Hybrid Mattress has been recognized as one of the best options for stomach sleepers. While it does not contain memory foam, it is made from latex, organic cotton, and organic wool, and has been constructed with premium, individually wrapped coils that, together, support its sleeper for a comfortable night’s rest that doesn’t result in aches and pains the next morning.

Unfortunately, delivery of the mattress does not include installation. Rather, it ships to your doorstep in weatherproof packaging, and delivery is free.

Pros

Cons

The multi-foam mattress has a breathable cover (a bonus for hot sleepers), minimal motion transfer (so you can move as much as you want, without disrupting your partner), and supportive five-layer construction to reduce the risk of morning aches and pains. According to a randomized survey distributed by the brand, 9 out of 10 back pain sufferers reported sleeping on a Nectar mattress helped relieve their aches. This data is beneficial for side and stomach sleepers, whose sleep positions tend to cause more back issues than others.

Nectar mattresses arrive in a box and require roughly 24 hours to expand and air out before they’re ready to be slept in, but according to the over 45,000 customer reviews that have allotted the brand a solid 4.8 out of a potential 5-star rating, it’s well worth the wait.

Pros

Cons

The mattress has been meticulously designed to promote a restorative night’s sleep for all sleepers. It features a Euro pillow topper with Lumbar Zone Quilting in the center third of the mattress to support spinal and maintain alignment, density foam for targeted back support, and pocketed coils that contour to your unique curvature. Customers can also choose one of three comfort levels—Plush Soft, Luxury Firm, or Firm—depending on their preference.

With over 2,800 reviews and an average of 4.8 out of a potential 5-star rating, it’s clear that customers are more than satisfied with the Saatva Classic Mattress. Reviewers rave the brand’s customer service is especially superb, and suggest that the mattress is among the best on the market. One stomach sleeper claims the mattress “fixed my back problems completely within 3 weeks,” while a side sleeper notes, “it accommodates the curves of my body - I'm not lying flat. It takes the pressure off the knee, back, shoulders, neck. I fall asleep fast and stay asleep.”

Saatva offers its customers free white glove delivery and setup. You choose your delivery date, and a Saatva delivery partner will call with a 4-hour delivery window the day before. They do all the work for you, including disposing of your old mattress. What’s more, because mattresses are made-to-order, they cannot be expedited (but look on the bright side — this is better for the environment, as they only make as much as they need).
