Our Take on Bedgear M5 Medium-Firm
Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert
- Want a firm mattress
- Are mainly a back sleeper
- Sleep with a partner who requires a different comfort level on their side of the bed
- Often sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is very good)
- Prefer a mattress with lots of 'memory feel'
- Want to be able to adjust the comfort level of your mattress in the future if needed
- Would like a mattress that performs very well when used with an adjustable base
- Enjoy a happy medium between sleeping 'on' your mattress versus 'in' it
- Are a stomach sleeper, especially if you weigh more than 250 lb
- Tend to have difficulty changing positions during the night (though ease of repositioning is still OK)
- Want a natural or organic mattress
