At A Glance

The Polysleep Mattress is a straightforward, all-foam bed that takes pressure off of sensitive areas and absorbs movement as you lay on it. The cushioning it provides works best for the needs of side sleepers, as well as some back sleepers.

Side Sleepers

Side Sleepers benefit from the pressure relief that the Polysleep provides. The shoulders and hips of side sleepers need ample cushioning to prevent pressure points. That said, side sleepers also need full-body support to keep the spine aligned. The Polysleep balances this cushioning comfort and support for side sleepers who weigh less than 230 pounds.

Those who weigh less than 130 pounds find that the Polysleep is soft enough for them to experience full-body contouring. The comfort layer cradles the body and keeps pressure from building at the shoulders and hips.

Side sleepers who weigh between 130 and 230 pounds also rate the Polysleep highly. The mattress conforms closely for pressure relief. The transition layer keeps these sleepers from sinking into the support base and helps keep the spine aligned.

Side sleepers who weigh more than 230 pounds will likely find the Polysleep is too soft. These sleepers often need a firm mattress for better support. The lower profile and plush foam comfort layer of the Polysleep allow these sleepers to sink in too deeply. As a result, the mattress is less supportive.

Back Sleepers

Even support helps keep the spine aligned for back sleepers. This sleeping position promotes a neutral posture. Cushioning foam, like that of the Polysleep mattress, helps support the lumbar region. The Polysleep mattress is a good choice for back sleepers who weigh less than 130 pounds. It cradles the body and contours closely for pressure relief. The transition layer helps keep the spine aligned.

Those who weigh between 130 and 230 pounds and sleep on their backs find the Polysleep offers alright support. These sleepers often prefer a firmer mattress, and the Polysleep is considered medium firmer (6). As a result, back sleepers in this weight category are more likely to sink deeply into the mattress. This may cause back sleepers to feel less supported, and can lead to spinal misalignment if sleepers sink in too much.

Back sleepers who weigh more than 230 pounds could also sink in excessively. The 10-inch profile of the mattress is less ideal for sleepers who weigh more than 230 pounds, as they are more likely to feel the firm support core beneath the comfort and transition layers. They are less likely to benefit from the contouring comfort layer, and pressure could build in the lower back. A firm mattress may be more beneficial.

Stomach Sleepers

The Polysleep is a good fit for stomach sleepers who weigh less than 130 pounds. Generally, stomach sleepers need a firm mattress that supports their midsections. This keeps pressure off of the lower back by keeping the spine aligned. Those who weigh less than 130 pounds are not as likely to sink into the Polysleep when sleeping on their stomachs. The foam layers properly support their abdomens and hips while cushioning their chests and shoulders.

Stomach sleepers who weigh between 130 and 230 rate the Polysleep as fair. These sleepers are more likely to feel their lower body sinking into the mattress, but the comfort layer cushions the upper half of the body.

Those who weigh more than 230 pounds and sleep on their stomachs will find the Polysleep is too soft to sufficiently support them. Additional weight is often carried in the midsection, and a firm mattress keeps the hips and abdomen from sinking in. The medium firm feel of the Polysleep is less ideal for stomach sleepers in this weight category, as they typically prefer a firm (7 or 8) surface.

Polysleep Mattress Review Breakdown

The Polysleep is a foam mattress with a height of 10 inches. The mattress has three foam layers, including the company’s viscoelastic Hybrid memory foam and high-density polyfoam. The foams used are CertiPUR-US certified. This means they are made without harmful chemicals or heavy metals.

The Polysleep is available in a medium firm feel, which is considered to be a 6 out of 10 on the firmness scale. The memory foam comfort layer conforms closely, hugging the body for ample pressure point relief. This cradling effect reduces tension and cushions the joints. This is ideal for side sleepers. Most sleepers will find they sink into the comfort layer of the mattress, but the high-density transition layer prevents them from sinking in too deeply.

The cover of the Polysleep mattress is composed of polyviscose, polyester, and spandex. It includes a liquid repellent treatment to minimize any spills or stains. Additionally, the cover can be removed and machine washed. The breathable mesh sides of the cover increase airflow throughout the mattress and help dissipate heat.

The comfort layer is antimicrobial memory foam polyfoam. This layer contours closely, but returns to its original shape quickly when pressure is removed. This helps sleepers change positions without feeling too restricted. The polyfoam comfort layer is aerated for temperature regulation. It also has an open-cell structure that helps dissipate heat. The antimicrobial foam resists dust and bacteria.

Beneath the comfort layer is transition polyfoam. This high-density foam layer provides support and helps keep the spine aligned.

The support core of the Polysleep mattress is made of firm, high-density polyfoam. This base provides even and consistent support for sleepers. There is an edge reinforcement polyfoam system that encases the transition and support layers of the mattress. This high-density perimeter provides better edge support than the average foam mattress. It ensures those who sleep or sit near the edge of the bed feel supported. It also helps prevent sagging along the edges over time.

Polysleep Mattress Sizing

The Polysleep has average durability for a foam mattress, with an expected lifespan of six to eight years. The high-density foam base and reinforced perimeter help it maintain consistent support and prevent sagging over time.

The mattress is available in all six standard sizes, twin through California king. The 10-inch profile should comfortably fit standard depth fitted sheets. The lightweight mattress is relatively easy to move and adjust as needed. Below is a breakdown of height, weight, and size dimensions for the Polysleep mattress.
