GoodBed Mattress Reviews
Led by our founder Mike Magnuson, the GoodBed team has tested many hundreds of mattresses, covering all the most popular online and store brands. Check the review articles shown below (or use the search function on this site) to see our findings for over 400 currently available mattress models.
GoodBed's proprietary, industry-leading testing methodology breaks down each mattress into more than 50 discrete and objectively-measurable characteristics, which we call Mattress DNA™. Our measurements of these attributes allow us to gain a complete picture of how that mattress will perform against the unique personal requirements of any given sleeper – including its Fit, Feel, and Features. These reviews are the most in-depth mattress assessments available, so to eliminate any post-purchase surprises or disappointments, we strongly recommend reading (or better yet, watching) our review of any given mattress before making your choice.

What Do Other Shoppers Say About GoodBed's Reviews?
The best way to see what a truly objective and expert mattress review looks like is to watch one of GoodBed's video reviews for yourself. But for those who prefer to rely on the wisdom of other savvy shoppers, we have received thousands of unsolicited testimonials from our readers and viewers. Here’s a small sample:
-
“It feels like I've been watching YouTube mattress reviews for eight years over the past week, and I have to say I've seen literally every YouTuber and blogger on this topic. Good Bed has the BEST reviews of any of them (I really LOVE the organized links to the different topics). Thank you, Good Bed! It's due to your videos I managed to narrow my selection down and pull the trigger.”

PSA: How Can You Spot a Fake Mattress Review Website?
Today's mattress review landscape is a true Wild West of corruption and scammers. There are now over 100 websites claiming to provide unbiased mattress reviews. Incredibly, at least 20 of these have been directly owned or backed by one of the mattress brands on which they are supposedly providing unbiased reviews. And almost all of the rest are run by sleazy salespeople whose goal is to sell you the mattresses that make them the most money by deceptively disguising themselves as an unbiased reviewer. Unfortunately, these sites specialize in looking very professional and showing up highly in Google search results, so you'll likely visit at least one (if not many) without even realizing it
The good news is that is one very easy red flag for spotting a fake mattress review site – simply check their site for lists of the 'best mattresses,' which typically can be found in the header or home page. Why? Any real mattress expert would surely know that unlike most products, mattresses are highly personal – meaning the best mattresses for one person will be completely different than the best mattresses for the next person. Fake mattress review sites prey on the fact that most consumers don’t know this, and use deceptive 'best mattress' lists to dupe unsuspecting consumers into buying the mattresses that make them the most money.
