GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Serta Arctic Premier Firm

Founder of GoodBed
Michael Magnuson

Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert

Bottom Line - Here was our assessment of this product.
Bottom line best icon BEST if you
  • Want a very firm mattress
  • Are mainly a back sleeper
  • Are seeking a mattress with excellent materials and construction
  • Prefer a mattress with lots of 'memory feel'
  • Can sometimes be disturbed by other movements in the bed (motion isolation is very good)
  • Enjoy sleeping just a bit more 'in' your mattress than 'on' it
Bottom line not ideal icon NOT IDEAL if you
  • Are a stomach sleeper, especially if you weigh more than 250 lb
  • Like your mattress to have some bounce
  • Often sleep close to the edge of your bed (edge support is just OK)
  • Have a strong tendency to sleep hot (temperature regulation is OK, but not the best)
  • Tend to have difficulty changing positions during the night
