    Sleek foam mattresses may dominate in the virtual bedrooms of our social feeds, but innerspring mattresses are far more popular in real life—accounting for 49 percent of those purchased new since 2013, according to Consumer Reports’ 2023 Mattress Brand Comfort and Satisfaction member survey of 65,845 mattresses. (Only 27 percent of these purchases were foam and 14 percent, adjustable air—the other two categories we test.)

    There’s a lot to love about innerspring mattresses. They’re inherently more resilient than foam mattresses, so you can shift positions more easily. And they’re also less likely to retain heat. Prices run the gamut, with luxury models in our ratings costing as much as $6,500, but you can also score an adequately supportive model for just a little over $200. 

     If you’re in the market for an innerspring mattress or a hybrid (which combines thicker layers of foam on top of the coils), this roundup has you covered. There are models for those who like their sleep surface soft or firm, or who prioritize motion isolation (which we call "stabilization" in our ratings). For Consumer Reports’ full slate of mattresses tested, visit our comprehensive ratings and reviews. CR members can also take advantage of our personalized mattress finder.
