Lifekind Traditional Medium

GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Lifekind Traditional Medium

Founder of GoodBed
Michael Magnuson

Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert

Bottom Line - Is the Lifekind Traditional Medium the right mattress for you?
Bottom line best icon BEST if you
  • Want a medium-firm mattress (i.e., just a little firmer than average)
  • Are mainly a stomach sleeper (though this mattress can also be very good for back sleepers)
  • Regularly sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is excellent)
  • Prefer no 'memory feel' in your mattress
  • Want a mattress that helps you stay cool through the night
  • Want your mattress to be made with natural materials
  • Enjoy sleeping 'on' your mattress while being just a little hugged or cradled
  • Want it be very easy to move around and change positions during the night
Bottom line not ideal icon NOT IDEAL if you
  • Are a side sleeper
  • Can be disturbed by other movements in the bed
  • Would like a mattress that can be used on an adjustable base
  • Don't like much bounce in your mattress
  • Are seeking the absolute highest quality and longevity (though materials and construction are still pretty good)
  • Are allergic to wool

Frequently Asked Questions
Lifekind Traditional Medium

This quiz can assess your requirements in just a few minutes, and then calculate your personal Match Score for the Lifekind Traditional Medium mattress, along with any of the other 800+ mattresses that we've evaluated.

  • Yes, the Lifekind Traditional Medium mattress is adjustable base compatible. This means it is designed to be used on an adjustable base without incurring damage or voiding the warranty. In our review of this mattress, we tested it on an adjustable base to look for any adverse effects as the head and foot are elevated, and to see how well it conforms to the contours of the base both with and without the weight of a sleeper. Overall, we found the Traditional Medium to have poor adjustable base compatibility.
