Sleep position, pressure relief and body type
It’s practically impossible to design a mattress that will perfectly cater to every single person’s sleeping needs. Human beings come in a variety of shapes and sizes and also pick up their own sleeping habits as they age depending on their sleeping circ*mstances and physical needs and requirements. The Spindle mattress is not built for everybody, but it performs well for the sleepers that it does suit. We’re going to go over a few of the major sleeper types and habits to help you understand who will get the best sleep on this mattress.
Back Sleepers
Back sleepers make up a large percentage of sleeper types today. During rest, these sleepers concentrate a large share of their overall weight around the pelvic and lower back area on their bodies. If this area is not supported enough it can cause quite a bit of discomfort to back sleepers and hinder their sleep. The Spindle mattress doesn’t quite perform as well at providing support to pressure crucial areas as memory foam does but users do lie on top of this foam, as opposed to sinking into memory foam. We would say that if you are under 200lbs you should be able to get a well-supported rest, provided you purchase the Extra Firm option.
Side Sleepers
In contrast to back sleepers, side sleepers tend to spread their overall weight along various pressure points along the entire length of their body. Pressure generally accrues around the knees, hips, sides, shoulders, and head. These points also shift on the mattress area, depending on which side the sleeper rests on. This mattress does a great job of nesting each respective natural contour of the user’s body. There is very little resistance from the layering when laying in this position and if you’re a side sleeper between 150-220lbs we feel like you’ll be able to sleep comfortably on the Medium or Firm options.
Stomach Sleepers
Stomach sleepers generally have about the same sleeping requirements that back sleepers do. The pressure they create while sleeping is also focused very much around the hips and lower back region and sturdiness is vital for these sleeper types – possibly even more so than with back sleepers. Again, we feel as though only the firmest option in this range will adequately support the frames of stomach sleepers below the 220lbs mark. Heavier sleepers that fit this profile will have to seek a mattress with greater structural integrity.
Combination Sleepers
The quick responding nature of the foams in this mattress makes it a great fit for combination sleepers. This is especially prevalent if these combo sleepers simply shift positions from side to side and are below 220lbs. Because this mattress does a great job at isolating and accommodating motions caused by shifting positions, combination sleepers should find it fairly easy to rest and still move across the surface area of this bed.
Heavy Sleepers
We found that these mattresses don’t quite carry the structural integrity it needs to comfortably host heavier body frames. This might have been plausible if the layering system included some kind of support base in its layering system to compensate for the extra weight. The latex foams used in this mattress’s layering system are just not strong enough to comfortably host the heavier frames of anyone who is above 220lbs.
Petite Sleepers
This mattress gives the user the feeling of laying atop the surface (as opposed to the sinking feeling that memory foam models create). Because of this, smaller or more petite sleepers will want to make use of the Medium Soft firmness option so that their contours can find enough support on the comfort layer of the mattress. Petite stomach and back sleepers might be able to get a good night’s rest on a Medium model if the pressure they create in their hips and lower back area is not too extreme.
Spindle edge support
Due to the nature of their design, this mattress doesn’t have the most reliable edge support. Latex has a much more forgiving tensility than memory foam and as such, is prone to excessive sagging under the concentrated weight. Because of this, the edge support of the Spindle mattress definitely lacks a bit of added support in its construction. There is a noticeable dip in the mattress when users sit on the sides of their mattress, which can create strain around the lower back region – especially when getting in and out of bed. Couples should note this as they need to use more of the surface area than most single sleepers. If you’re part of a couple and want to invest in this mattress, we advise purchasing a Queen size or bigger in order to get the best possible sleep.
