A consistent good night’s sleep is essential for your physical and mental well-being. If you don’t get enough quality sleep, you’re at risk for poor focus, reduced cognition, delayed reactions, and mood swings and you’re more prone to certain illnesses. Finding the right mattress for you can help you achieve the sometimes-elusive good night’s sleep, so this is more than your typical shopping spree.
The right mattress will depend on your height, weight, sleeping position, and common sleeping complaints. Often, mattresses are designed to target common problems like feeling too hot during the night, improper spinal alignment, and back or joint pain. We’ll dive deeper into all these concerns throughout the article.
User experience also matters when you’re comparing mattress stores Milwaukee. At Colder’s, our sleep experts are there to help you compare all the options to determine which is best for you whether you shop our Oak Creek mattress stores or any of our locations throughout Milwaukee.

Shop By Mattress Type
One way to narrow down your mattress search is by choosing your favorite mattress type. You can choose from a variety of options like a hybrid, wrapped coil, or memory foam mattress Milwaukee sleepers have counted on since we started carrying them in our stock. Let’s look at each type more in-depth:
| Mattress Type | Ideal User | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Memory Foam | Memory foam is supportive and comfortable. It’s designed to contour to your body's shape, which can help minimize motion transfer and promote proper spinal alignment. Memory foam is more susceptible to trapping body heat, so if you tend to be a hot sleeper, you may want to seek out a memory foam mattress known for its cooling technology. Overall, memory foam’s level of support is ideal for side sleepers. | ||
Shop By Comfort Level
You can also search for mattresses by comfort level. Typically, mattresses range from ultra plush to extra firm. To find the right comfort level for you, you’ll need to consider your height, weight, and most common sleeping position (side, stomach, back). Here is a brea kdown of standard comfort levels and who they are best for:
- Ultra Plush Mattress: Best for lighter, petite individuals–particularly side sleepers. Heavier individuals might sink into ultra plush mattresses, causing improper spinal alignment, pain, and stiffness.
- Plush Mattress: Best for lighter weight and petite individuals who sleep in all positions (side, back, and stomach); heavier individuals may sink into a plush mattress.
- Medium Mattress: Best for average weight individuals, especially side and back sleepers; a good compromise for a couple sharing a bed when one of them is lighter weight and one of them is of average weight.
- Firm Mattress: Best for average and heavier weight individuals as well as side, back, and stomach sleepers; lighter individuals might find a firm mattress to be hard and unsupportive.
- Extra Firm Mattress: Best for heavy or overweight individuals, especially back and stomach sleepers; an extra firm mattress may feel too hard and unsupportive for a lightweight individual because they may not actually weigh enough to cause the mattress to contour to their body’s shape.
Shop By Mattress Sizes
Depending on the size of your space and who will be sleeping in it, you can choose from a number of mattress sizes. Mattresses are available in all standard sizes: twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king. Here are the measurements for these standard sizes:
- Twin: 39” x 75”
- Twin XL: 39” x 80”
- Full: 54” x 75”
- Queen: 60” x 80”
- King: 76” x 80”
- California King: 72” x 84”
As a general rule of thumb, you’re likely to see twin, twin XL, and full mattresses in kids’ bedrooms, full, queen, and king mattresses in guest bedrooms, and queen, king, and California king mattresses in primary bedrooms.
