We review the products that can improve the quality of your sleep, from mattresses to bedding to window coverings. We also offer information on habits and practices that can improve your ability to rest.
Factors to Improve Rest
Quality sleep is easier if you can maintain quality sleep hygiene. Your space needs to be
- Dark
- Cool
- Quiet
Your bed needs to be appropriately firm and your bedding needs to be comfortable and warm enough for you. When it comes to quality sleep for brain health, in particular, you need to get into the deepest level of sleep to cleanse the brain of stress-related toxins. Deep sleep is accompanied by a drop in core body temperature.
Many of us struggle to fall asleep in a cool room because our feet are cold. Consider investing in an electric throw that you can use just on your feet and legs to warm up the bed before you snuggle in. Overheating your whole body may agitate you out of that deepest level of sleep and prevent your core body temp from cooling off for that healthiest level of deep sleep.
About the Team
In addition to keeping your bedroom set up for quality rest, you want to monitor your body and your mind for best preparation to wind down your body and brain.
Our co-founder Pavel Ufimtsev is learning to meditate as a way to prepare the mind for the deepest rest. You can meditate before bed or during the day to clear away the mental debris, or simply play a guided meditation recording when you get into bed to lead your brain to relaxation and sleep.

Amanda Doyle
She is a very experienced researcher and writer in the sleep and bedroom niche, even a little obsessed with mattress firmness, bedding comfort, and darkness.
A childhood in the frozen north means that a warm bed in a room that’s just above chilly is pretty much heaven. Bedding materials, from fleece to high-end cotton, all require serious consideration. Blackout drapes, which come in especially handy in snow country because of all that reflective material on the ground, are also a source of fascination.
She believes strongly in life habits. One of the most amazing things about our brains is that we are always building habits, consciously or unconsciously. The key is to build a platform of habits that make the rest of life flow well.
Finally, she owns her meditation time. Once meditation becomes a habit, the release of clearing your mind for even five minutes can be as good as a nap. The key is to be gentle with your mind when tough thoughts start to spin.
Your Internal Sleep Environment
In addition to clearing your mind, take care not to pollute your body in ways that will damage the quality of your sleep. Stimulants like caffeine and nicotine will get in the way of winding down. Depressants like alcohol will block you from entering a healthy sleep cycle.
Product Reviews
SleepMattress gathers data about the products that make your physical space work for the best sleep. If you run a search on the phrase “new mattress” you can find a million links that you don’t need. We can help you winnow out the products that don’t work in your space or work with your budget.
Our product reviews also help you determine the best sleeping gear for now and in the future. If you’re in your first apartment or a dorm room, you need something small. You also need something extremely portable. A folding mattress might be your best option, but a folding mattress can also be a chair. Now you’re getting twice the use out of your mattress, but you’re putting twice the wear on the foam. We can help you find the best quality item for your size and budget needs.
Our Review Process
Our teams review hundreds of products to study the best of the best. While no product will thrill every shopper, we can help you find the very best products in the class you need. We’ll also go through the negative comments and give you a heads-up on things to consider before you click “buy now!”
As possible, we’ll also give you information about the manufacturer of the gear we’re reviewing. A great mattress from a manufacturer with a very strong history will boost your confidence in your purchase. As noted above, it’s been a nervous time. Feeling confident about your purchases can reduce worries and improve your sleep.
The world needs alert, caring people who can approach the world with a kind heart and some humor. Healthy sleep equals a healthier you, a healthier community, and stronger families!
