- Is this mattress good for side sleepers?
- Yes. The medium pillow-top cushions shoulders and hips, which side sleepers tend to like. Heavier side sleepers may want more support underneath.
- How does it compare with an all-foam mattress?
- It has a springy feel and more bounce than all-foam beds, and the pillow-top adds surface cushioning. All-foam rivals usually isolate motion better and sleep cooler.
- Will the pillow-top sag over time?
- Body impressions are a common complaint. Rotating the mattress regularly and using a firm foundation slows softening, but the pillow-top does compress with use.
- Does it need a box spring?
- It works on a box spring or a slatted foundation. A firm, supportive base helps prevent sagging and keeps the warranty valid.
- Is it good for couples?
- It handles weight well, but motion transfer is noticeable, so light sleepers may feel a partner move. Edge support is also weaker than on hybrids.
- How firm is medium in this line?
- Medium sits in the middle of the Perfect Sleeper range, softer than the firm models and firmer than plush. It suits most back and side sleepers.
- Where is the Serta Perfect Sleeper Medium PillowTop Mattress Queen cheapest?
- At Mattress Firm, for $1,599.99, as of our latest check.
