Best Pillow Top Mattress

Nest Bedding Alexander Hybrid

BEST FOR:

  • If you want a really nice bed at a fair price
  • Side, back, stomach, and combination sleepers
  • People that want a bed that’s covered by a lifetime warranty
  • If you like options (Nest Alexander comes in 3 firmness profiles)

Nest Alexander is one of our all-time favorite coil beds. It comes in three firmness options, but the “Medium” version is their most popular, and is the one we’re thinking of for this list. It has a fluffy pillow top—a bit like that of the Oceano mattress—and support coils for a little bounce.

The “Medium” option is somewhere between a medium-soft and proper medium on the firmness scale, but it should work for all sleeping positions. That said, if you want something firmer, they have that too. And if you need something even softer, you guessed it, they have that as well.

We also appreciate that Nest Alexander Hybrid is affordable with a retail price of about $1,300 for the queen bed. That’s before discounts, which typically end up bringing it down closer to $1,100. Again, for the money, we’re not sure there’s a better pillow top mattress out there.

Saatva

BEST FOR:

  • All body types
  • People that want a firm pillow top mattress, or even a plush model
  • Back, stomach, and combination sleepers
  • If you want a really nice coil bed for (barely) over $1K
  • People with back pain that need a lot of support

The “Luxury Firm” model from Saatva is not just a firm pillow top mattress, it’s a durable and thick bed that is made up of foam and two layers of coils. This is the type of bed that you sleep on top of, which is why we really like it for back and stomach sleepers in particular. Combo sleepers will be just fine as well, but petite individuals and those that spend the night on their side probably want to go with the Plush Soft mattress model.

Saatva uses a combination of two layers of coils, memory foam and a mounded euro top to make a bed that’s extremely supportive and comfortable—pretty much a great option for people with back pain. From the start, it will be about a medium-firm to firm, but it will soften over time and end up somewhere closer to a medium-firm. The more time we’ve had with Saatva, the more we like this bed.

Brentwood Home Oceano

BEST FOR:

  • People that want to nestle into their mattress (Oceano is a big, plush mattress)
  • All body types, given that Brentwood Oceano has dual coil layers
  • Eco-conscious buyers that want a bed with certain natural elements
  • Side and combination sleepers (also, lightweight back/stomach sleepers)

Oceano is not only the company’s most popular bed, but it could also be the internet’s. This is just a fantastic mattress that’s really comfortable, fairly plush, and pretty darn supportive. It actually has two layers of coils, plus memory foam, and who could forget about the pillow top? Oceano is one of those beds that you get lost in, and never want to leave.

Oceano is the ultimate cuddling mattress

The entire Oceano mattress is also GREENGUARD Gold Certified by UL Environment, which is a certification that’s extremely difficult to achieve. Among other things, it means that the bed is indeed safe and free from certain toxins and heavy metals. The bed doesn’t even have any chemical fire retardants

Oceano also comes with free shipping, a full-year test window, free returns, and a 25-year warranty. Hard to get much better than that.

WinkBed

BEST FOR:

  • Heavier folks or people with back pain who need ample support and durability
  • Anyone who wants multiple firmness options to choose from (they offer firm and plush mattresses)
  • Those who like the idea of a hotel luxury style mattress
  • All sleeper types and body types (you can choose the model that suits you best)

WinkBed mattresses are big and luxurious. They look very nice and you can tell right off the bat that they’re well-made, quality mattresses.

You can choose from a few different firmness levels—Softer, Luxury Firm (their most popular), or Firmer, or you can opt for the Plus option, which is designed to handle people that weigh up to 500 lb. Any option will provide plenty of support, though, as long as you take your own body type into consideration.

WinkBed offers a good value and a giant pillow top

WinkBed feels like a more traditional innerspring bed with a plush and airy pillow top. It’s no surprise they have some of the innerspring bounce since there are two layers of coils—one layer of larger pocketed coils to help you maintain proper alignment, and then a layer of pocketed micro “airsprings” for better airflow and some bounce.

These are all-around luxury style mattresses that have a lot to like about them (although they really should have handles on a bed this heavy) and we think Wink is a solid option for a lot of sleepers. Bottom line: this is a very nice mattress, among the best.

Avocado Green Mattress

BEST FOR:

  • People that want a natural/organic bed with health certifications galore
  • All sleeping positions, though, it is a little on the firm side
  • All body types (Avocado is not short on support)
  • Fans of latex foam

Avocado very well could be the most popular natural and organic mattress in the world, let alone online. And we can totally understand why. The bed is clearly built to a higher standard and uses various organic and natural materials such as organic certified cotton and latex. It also has 8″ steel coils for its foundation, which means it’s bouncy, responsive, and extra supportive.

A look at the Avocado mattress with the optional pillow topper

By default Avocado is not a pillow top mattress, but you can add one. It costs more (in some cases $500 more), but we think it’s the way to go since it takes the bed from being truly firm to about a medium-firm, and therefore opens it up to other sleeping positions.

We think it’s a really nice, really comfortable bed, but you have to know what you’re getting yourself into. It’s a firmer, very responsive bed (i.e. this isn’t the mattress that you sink into). As a result, however, it ends up being a nice solution for hot sleepers. The coils help with air circulation, the latex foam is a naturally cooler material, and the firmness level means you sleep more on top of the bed.
