As we age, quality sleep becomes increasingly important for maintaining good health, mental clarity, and overall quality of life. Yet many seniors find that the mattress that served them well in their younger years no longer provides the support and comfort they need. 

Contrary to popular belief, finding the best mattress for seniors isn’t just about comfort — it’s about addressing specific health concerns, mobility issues, and sleep challenges that come with aging.

At Texas Mattress Makers, we understand that every senior has unique sleep needs. Our expertly crafted mattresses are designed to address these concerns while providing exceptional comfort and support. Our experts are here to discuss what makes a mattress ideal for older adults, how the right sleep surface can dramatically improve your quality of life, and provide our expert recommendations for elderly sleepers. 

What type of mattress is best for elderly people?

As people age, they are more likely to experience mobility issues, joint pain, changes in body weight, temperature regulation issues, and sleep disturbances, making a good night’s sleep hard to come by for many seniors. The right mattress can help alleviate these issues, while the wrong one may exacerbate them, leading to poor sleep quality and diminished overall health.

Key features to look for in a mattress

Whether you’re an older shopper or a loved one searching for the best mattress for seniors, here are characteristics to look out for when selecting the perfect bed.

• Exceptional body support: As we age, maintaining proper spinal alignment becomes crucial for preventing and managing back pain. A mattress that’s too soft can cause the spine to curve, while one that’s too firm may put too much pressure on the joints.
• Pressure point relief: For seniors who experience chronic pain or simply spend a lot of time in bed, pressure point relief is essential for comfortable sleep. When pressure concentrates on areas that tend to make contact with the mattress — shoulders, hips, knees, and heels — it can restrict blood flow and cause significant discomfort in the morning. This reduces pressure on sensitive areas and helps prevent the development of bed sores — a critical consideration for those who may be bed-bound or have limited mobility.
• Motion isolation: Many seniors share their bed with a partner, and motion transfer can significantly impact sleep quality. When one person turns or gets up during the night, the movement can disturb the other. Motion isolation technology minimizes weight transfer for uninterrupted sleep.
• Edge support: For seniors with mobility issues, strong edge support is not just a convenience — it’s a safety feature. A mattress with reinforced edges provides a stable surface for sitting when getting in and out of bed, reducing the risk of falls.
• Temperature regulation technology: If you are sensitive to temperature fluctuations, then night sweats and overheating can be particularly problematic and disruptive to restful sleep. Finding a mattress that will keep your body temperature neutral will vastly improve your sleep quality.

Mattress shopping tips for seniors

Finding the best mattress for seniors involves more than just knowing what features to look for — it’s also about prioritizing your unique needs and preferences throughout the shopping process. For the most stress-free shopping experience, follow these tips:

• Shopping for a mattress in person allows you to try out your mattress first-hand before you make a decision.
• Speak with a mattress expert in-store or over the phone to match you to your perfect mattress. This can reduce the amount of walking and meandering you would have to do at other mattress stores and make the selection process easier! We offer both in-person and phone consultations for your convenience. 
• Bring your sleep partner along so you can land on a mattress that accommodates both of your needs.
• Discuss health concerns with a mattress expert so they may point you in the direction of a mattress that will address those concerns.
• Ask about delivery options, old mattress removal, and setup services. At Texas Mattress Makers, we offer white-glove delivery, installation, and free mattress removal, eliminating the need for you to handle heavy mattresses.

Remember that a mattress is not just an investment in your sleep quality; it’s an investment in your overall health and well-being. As we age, good sleep can be harder to come by, making the right mattress all the more important. Texas Mattress Makers is here to help you find your perfect fit so you can enjoy restorative, pain-free sleep each and every night. 

Our expert recommendations for the best mattress for seniors

Here at Texas Mattress Makers, our mattress collections are designed to satisfy a variety of sleep needs for any budget range. In other words, each mattress has its own unique benefits that any sleeper, including seniors, can get their best night’s sleep on.

However, we understand that seniors have specific health concerns and needs that require a little extra TLC. So, our experts would like to introduce two of our top-rated products with elevated sleep technology that will improve any senior sleeper’s sleep quality immensely. 

Meet the Quantum™ Natural Mattress, the Hybrid Plus Natural Mattress, and the Hotel Mattress.

Expert Tip: We understand that comfort preferences can shift with age. For example, many seniors tend to prefer a Firm Feel to their mattress; not necessarily because they want a harder surface, but because the right level of firmness can offer easier mobility during sleep. A supportive mattress makes it easier to change positions or get in and out of bed, all without sacrificing comfort. All the recommended collections offer different comfort choices, including a firm option, so every sleeper can find the balance of support and comfort they need.

Quantum™ Natural Mattress

The Quantum™ Natural Mattress represents the pinnacle of sleep technology for seniors. This award-winning mattress features:

• Multi-layers of infused latex for exceptional pressure relief and comfort
• The most supportive coil in the industry for durable full-body support
• Targeted support zones for proper spinal alignment
• Superior temperature regulation and airflow
• Minimal motion transfer for undisturbed sleep

For seniors looking for the absolute best mattress for elderly individuals, the Quantum™ Natural Mattress delivers unparalleled comfort and support. Its thoughtful design addresses the specific sleep challenges faced by older adults, resulting in improved sleep quality and better overall health.

Hybrid Plus Natural Mattress

Our Hybrid Plus Natural Mattress combines the best of both worlds: the supportive strength of an individually-wrapped coil system with the conforming comfort of premium natural latex. This exceptional mattress includes:

• Individually wrapped coils for targeted support and reduced motion transfer
• Natural comfort layers that contour to your body
• Enhanced edge support for safer bed entry and exit
• Breathable construction for optimal temperature control
• Durable design that maintains its supportive properties over time

The Hybrid Plus Natural Mattress is an excellent option for seniors who prefer a more traditional feel but still want the benefits of modern sleep technology. It’s particularly effective for couples and those who value a balance of support and pressure relief.

Hotel Mattress

We call this the Hotel Mattress because of its ability to satisfy a wide range of sleep needs. The individually-wrapped coil system provides stable support while responding to each sleeper’s body independently, so you won’t detect any movement. This mattress includes:

• Motion isolation to reduce disturbance
• Pressure point relief by enabling proper circulation
• Comfort layers designed to reduce aches and pains
• Proper air circulation for cooler sleep
• Optimal back and lumbar support
• Stabilizing base foam layer to make getting in and out of bed easier

If you want to achieve deep, relaxing sleep without sacrificing support (or your budget), the Hotel Mattress is an excellent choice.

What makes these mattresses the best for elderly sleepers?

The star of these two mattresses is the all-natural, premium latex as the main comfort component. Latex is a luxurious material used in our top-of-the-line mattresses that comes with a long list of benefits:

• Exceptional body contouring for pressure point relief so you wake up pain-free
• Light and buoyant surface to keep your body from sinking 
• Promotes proper spine alignment and blood circulation
• An open rubber cell structure lets air flow through the mattress for a cooler night’s sleep

Expert Tip: Add our Ice Blue Cooling Topper to any mattress to keep you cool and comfortable all night long. This enhanced cooling technology dissipates your body heat, keeping it from being trapped in your mattress.

Both our recommended mattresses feature enhanced edge support systems, making them among the best bed for elderly with mobility issues. Here is how latex can help with specific health concerns that seniors may face.

Arthritis and joint pain

For the millions of seniors living with arthritis, finding a mattress that doesn’t exacerbate joint pain is essential. So, what type of mattress is best for seniors with arthritis?

The best mattress for seniors with arthritis will have specialized construction that cradles the joints for proper pain relief while still providing proper support to the entire body. The Quantum™ Natural Mattress is particularly effective for arthritis sufferers, as its responsive design adapts to your body’s unique contours without creating painful pressure points.

Back pain and sciatica

For those suffering from chronic back pain or sciatica, which is very common amongst senior sleepers, mattress selection can make a significant difference in daily comfort and functionality.

Our Hybrid Plus Natural Mattress is specifically designed for back pain relief, with targeted support zones that help maintain proper spinal alignment. For those with sciatica, we also offer specialized options for sciatica pain that help reduce pressure on the sciatic nerve.

Hip pain

Hip pain is common among seniors and can significantly impact sleep quality. The right mattress can help distribute weight evenly and reduce pressure on sensitive hip joints.

When looking for a mattress for hip pain, look for components that can provide relief to the hip area while maintaining support throughout the rest of the body. The latex found in both these mattresses will contour to the hip joint, providing it with enough cushion for pain-free sleep all night long. 

Aside from those points, our affordable latex mattresses are also hypoallergenic, eco-friendly, durable, and long-lasting. Because we make all of our mattresses in-house, you can take home a luxury latex mattress for a much better price than what you will find at other retailers.

Texas Mattress Makers Makes Finding the Best Mattress for Seniors Simple

Because quality sleep affects everything from physical pain and mobility to cognitive function and emotional well-being, the right mattress is one of the most important investments seniors can make for themselves. Whether you’re dealing with arthritis, back pain, mobility issues, or simply want to improve your overall sleep quality, we invite you to explore our selection of the best mattresses for seniors. 

Our mattresses contain some of the most innovative sleep technology in the industry for older adults, addressing the specific challenges that can impact restful sleep as we age. Whether you want to shop in person at any of our showroom locations or make your purchase online, our mattress experts are here to help guide you to your dream mattress.

Your journey to better sleep — and better health — begins with the right mattress from Texas Mattress Makers. We hope to see you soon!

In a marketplace crowded with mattress options, one question consistently arises: Which mattress is the best quality? With countless brands vying for your attention through flashy marketing campaigns, seemingly endless sales, and a store on every other street corner (you know who you are), it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when shopping for a mattress. 

We are here to make things easier for you. If you were to compare mattresses from other mattress brands with Texas Mattress Makers, you’ll find that the competition doesn’t often measure up.

At Texas Mattress Makers, we believe an informed customer makes the best decisions. In trying times like these, where budgets are tighter and consumers are more brand-conscious, you should know exactly what you are buying and who you are buying it from. That’s why we want to pull back the curtain and show you what makes us different from the big box stores and online mattress retailers that have flooded the industry — and your screens.

These are the reasons why our products can outperform and outlive beds from even the best mattress brands. 

Quality components that exceed industry standards

When you’re investing in a mattress, quality shouldn’t be a luxury — it should be standard. Unfortunately, many mattress retailers prioritize profit over providing products that will last and perform. Cheaply made mattresses will only cost you more down the road. We don’t believe in cutting corners.

As a local mattress manufacturer, Texas Mattress Makers puts quality and excellence over everything. Our mattresses feature components that not only meet but exceed industry standards, as verified through rigorous mattress testing.

What does this mean for you as the buyer? We believe that you deserve the best mattress possible, which is why we make all of our mattresses with top-quality components that have been meticulously tested and proven to beat the competition.

• Our high-performing comfort components, such as our High-Resilience Foam and High-Density Foam in the Hybrid Plus Collection, were proven to maintain their shape, comfort, and support for years longer than other mattresses on the market.
• Featured in our Quantum™ Collection, the Quantum™ Coil component (a premium steel coil system) surpassed industry standards and outperformed all of our mattresses in terms of durability and longevity.
• Looking to compare mattresses that are considered budget-friendly or “starter mattresses?” The beds featured in our Essential Collection exceeded other mattresses in this budget range in terms of quality, meaning you’re getting a great mattress for an unbeatable price.

If you were to compare mattresses based on materials alone, no mattress store in Houston could produce a product as quality as ours for a better price. While other retailers may claim that the best mattress brands offer the best quality in town, you can feel the difference right off the bat. We invite you to visit a showroom of ours to try out our mattresses firsthand to get a better understanding of why our products are superior.

Material diversity: one choice won’t fit all

Many of today’s popular mattress brands have built their business model around a single mattress design or technology, like Purple, for example. Despite clever marketing suggesting their “universal comfort” mattress works for everyone, this claim is impossible. 

At Texas Mattress Makers, we’ve built our business around the concept that one size doesn’t fit all. Each sleeper has a unique body type, sleeping position, comfort preference, and distinct needs that require different materials and construction to satisfy. Allowing our customers to choose from a diverse selection of materials gives them a better chance to find their perfect match. 

Here are some of the components and materials we offer in our mattresses that are all locally sourced in the United States:

• 100% natural latex for sleepers who want an eco-friendly option with exceptional pain-relieving, cooling, and comfort properties.
• Premium foam components in various densities and feels offer pressure relief, body contouring, and exceptional comfort without sinking or suffocating.
• Durable coils individually wrapped in their own fabric pocket provide personalized, responsive support.
• Cooling technology is essential for anyone who may sleep hot for cooler, cleaner, more comfortable sleep.
• Innerspring mattresses are a good choice for young sleepers who want a quality starter mattress.

One flexible grid or specific foam may not work for you like it would for another sleeper. Shopping at a mattress store in Houston with a variety of options to choose from will ensure that you find exactly what you need for amazing sleep.

Generations of experience and expertise

Let’s be real, the modern mattress industry is filled with entrepreneurs or newcomers who may have great ideas but limited experience with actual mattress construction. This can overall hurt the integrity and longevity of the beds you’re buying. With us, you won’t have to worry about that.

Texas Mattress Makers stands apart as a family-owned and operated business with generations of mattress-making expertise. Our founder, Youval, has over 40 years of industry experience and that knowledge has been preserved and expanded through decades of hands-on experience with his family and employees.

As a company, this deep understanding of mattress construction allows us to:

• Select materials based on proven performance, not just cost
• Construct mattresses with techniques refined over decades
• Identify and solve comfort issues that less experienced retailers might miss
• Help customers choose the right mattress for their needs

When you speak with any member of our staff, you’re consulting with true mattress experts who understand the science of sleep and the techniques behind each technology — not salespeople working from a script. We know what we’re talking about because we live and breathe mattress construction daily!

Made in-house by our expert craftsmen

We’re Texans, so of course we cherish anything made by those in our community. That’s what sets us apart from most stores in the area. While many retailers here in Houston sell products made by distant factories, every Texas Mattress Makers mattress is handcrafted in our Downtown Houston factory by our very own expert craftsmen. 

This in-house production provides several key advantages:

• Direct quality control at every stage of manufacturing
• Customization capabilities that big brands can’t perform
• Elimination of middleman markups that inflate prices
• Rapid adaptation to customer feedback and material innovations
• Local economic investment that benefits our community

When you purchase from retailers who don’t make their own products, you’re often paying a substantial markup for essentially the same mattresses available elsewhere. Our factory-direct business model eliminates these unnecessary costs while ensuring superior craftsmanship from Houstonians you can trust.

The 90-Night Comfort Guarantee

Because comfort is subjective, most mattress brands will offer their customers a trial period where they can take their mattress home and try out their new bed “risk-free.” What they won’t tell you is that these trial periods tend to come with a lot of fine print that can make the mattress difficult to return or exchange, especially if you buy online.

Texas Mattress Makers offers a 90-Night Comfort Guarantee.* This is not simply a “trial period,” but a time dedicated to allowing you and your mattress to adjust to one another. Our guarantee reflects our confidence in our products and our commitment to your satisfaction. If you’re not completely, 100% satisfied with your mattress after 30-60 nights:

• We’ll work with you to identify the specific comfort issue.
• We can modify your existing mattress to address your concerns.
• If necessary, we’ll exchange your mattress for a different model.

This hassle-free approach has helped hundreds of Houstonians find a mattress that is perfect in every way — because we don’t believe in “good enough.” 

Our Quantum™ Collection includes an extended 6-month comfort guarantee. Since these premium materials require a longer break-in period, we provide this extra time to ensure you’re completely satisfied with your comfort choice.

*Please call the showroom you purchased from before 90 nights from your original purchase date. We recommend allowing the full 60-night break-in period to pass before reporting a comfort concern. Any price adjustments and delivery/pick-up costs will be calculated during the comfort exchange. Our Comfort Guarantee is valid for two exchanges and does not include the size of the mattress.

Experience the Best of the Best at Texas Mattress Makers

In short, if you were to compare mattresses from Texas Mattress Makers and any other retailer or manufacturer, ours will always come out on top. Our commitment to quality materials, expert craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction creates a superior mattress at better prices. While we are considered a small business, we have more value to offer our customers: decades of expertise, honest business practices, and mattresses made right here in Texas by people who take pride in their craft.

For the best mattress experience that combines quality, value, and personalized service, we invite you to discover what makes Texas Mattress Makers the smart choice for mattress shoppers. If you’re still on the fence, our mattress reviews from satisfied sleepers tell just how our mattresses outperform the competition.

If you’re constantly being jolted awake every time your partner shifts in bed or your pet jumps up for a cuddle, it’s time to invest in a motion isolation mattress. Light sleepers, couples, pet owners, parents, and those who struggle with other conditions can all benefit from a motion transfer mattress.

Here are four reasons to invest in a motion isolation mattress:

1. You sleep with a partner
2. Your pets sleep in bed with you
3. Your kids sleep in bed with you
4. You have chronic pain

Texas Mattress Makers is a local mattress manufacturer and retailer in Houston, Texas, that designs mattresses with each sleeper’s comfort and sleep health in mind. Keep reading to find out more about why motion isolation might be a powerful solution for your unique sleep needs. 

Because every mattress in our Essential, 100% Foam, Hybrid Plus, and Quantum™ collections features components that help isolate motion transfer, finding a motion isolation mattress for a great price is simple and stress-free at Texas Mattress Makers.

1. You sleep with a partner

There’s nothing quite as soothing as sleeping next to someone you love…unless your partner has horrific sleep habits. When two people share a bed, there is always a possibility that partner disturbance will occur. Some partners toss and turn, some partners kick, some partners get in and out of bed during the night…the list goes on and on. 

At the end of the day, if you and your partner have incompatible sleep patterns or schedules, neither of you will get quality sleep, and we all know what happens when we don’t get enough sleep.

If you’re considering a sleep divorce — when couples sleep in different beds or bedrooms — you need to get a motion isolation mattress to save your sleep. A mattress designed to minimize motion transfer will ensure that neither of you will be interrupted as you sleep, no matter how much the other moves. 

Texas Mattress Makers offers the best motion isolation mattress for couples looking for a more peaceful, restful night’s sleep together. Also, think of it this way: a single quality mattress will be less expensive than two separate ones! It’s a win-win.

2. Your pets sleep in bed with you

While sleeping with pets has some emotional benefits, they can be very disruptive to your sleep quality. Let’s be honest, dogs toss and turn a lot more than humans do! The constant moving, kicking, circling, jumping, and settling can keep you awake throughout the night and prevent you from getting the full, undisturbed rest you need.

If you love sleeping with your furbabies, a mattress that limits motion transfer can help you stay asleep no matter how many times they readjust or roam during the night. They can jump on and off the bed and adjust until they’re comfortable, all they want, without waking you up.

3. Your kids sleep in bed with you

Similarly with pets and partners, bedsharing (also known as cosleeping) with your kids can be a beautiful bonding experience between you and your children — but it often comes at the expense of your sleep. Because kids are notorious for kicking, rolling, and shifting in the night, a motion isolation mattress will absorb their movements so you can enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep every night.

Expert Tip: Parents, is it about time for your child to start sleeping in their own bed? We offer mattresses that are guaranteed to make your children excited for bedtime each night. Shop our Youth & Guests Collection and our Essential Collection for more details and great deals.

4. You have chronic pain

When you’re dealing with chronic pain or healing from an injury, uninterrupted, high-quality sleep is more important than ever. Unfortunately, even small movements from a partner, pet, or child in bed can cause painful jolts that wake you up. A mattress like this can significantly improve your comfort by absorbing those movements and reducing the chances of being disturbed.

Because your body may already be sensitive to pressure or changes in position, minimizing motion transfer can help you stay in a more relaxed, pain-free sleep posture throughout the night. In particular, mattresses with thick, responsive comfort layers can both minimize motion transfer and provide the pressure relief your body needs — more on this later. 

What is motion isolation in a mattress?

Motion isolation refers to a mattress’s ability to absorb movement and prevent it from traveling across the surface of the bed. If your partner, pet, or child moves, rolls over, or gets out of bed, a mattress with strong motion isolation will help keep you from feeling those movements, allowing for a more peaceful, uninterrupted night’s sleep. This is especially important for light sleepers or couples with different sleep schedules.

For anyone wondering how to reduce motion transfer in bed, the key is to pick the right mattress components.

What is the best mattress for motion isolation?

There is not one single type of mattress that is best for motion isolation. Because not all mattresses are made equal, certain types of mattresses with specific components will be able to minimize motion transfer better than others. It’s all about the construction, quality, and durability of the mattress’s materials. 

When searching for the right motion isolation mattress for you, look for beds with the following materials:

• Foam: Foam components like memory foam, high-resilience foam, and high-density foam respond to pressure in a way that absorbs any movement and provides natural support to your body. These foams can be used in both the supportive and comfort layers — like in our 100% Foam Mattress — or in the comfort layer accompanied by a coil component — also known as hybrid mattresses.
• Latex: All-natural latex’s dense, elastic structure absorbs energy on contact and quickly returns to shape without spreading movement across the surface. Additionally, high-quality natural latex tends to be more durable and stable over time, maintaining its ability to minimize motion transfer even after years of use. Our Quantum™ Natural and Hybrid Plus Natural Mattresses both feature our latex component.
• Individually-wrapped coils: Each coil resides in its own individual pocket of fabric, allowing it to move independently of the rest. The ability to react to any movement separately will minimize motion transfer and provide more personalized support.
• Quantum™ Coil: Quantum™ Coil is a type of individually wrapped coil component that houses 200% more coils than the average mattress coil count for superior support and isolated movement, no matter who is sleeping on the mattress. You will only be able to find this type of top-quality mattress at Texas Mattress Makers.

No matter your sleep style, we have a plethora of mattresses designed to keep movement on one side of the bed where it belongs.

Your Perfect Motion Isolation Mattress is Here

When it comes to getting deep, restorative rest, a motion isolation mattress is a game-changer.  Just to recap, a mattress with good motion isolation means:

✓ You won’t feel your partner moving during the night

✓ No bouncing when someone gets in or out of bed

✓ Fewer disruptions, so you get better quality sleep

Whether you’re dealing with partner disturbance, pets, kids, or you’re just a light sleeper, investing in a mattress that can minimize motion transfer will improve your sleep quality — and your quality of life. 

At Texas Mattress Makers, we’ll help you find a mattress that fits your specific needs, with expert guidance and locally made products you can trust. Visit any of our mattress stores in Houston to pick out your dream mattress and enjoy our amazing deals.

The best mattress upgrade for hot sleepers in the Texas heat 

Let’s face it — Houston is hot. And when the summer temperatures climb past 90° (sometimes before noon), your bedroom can feel more like a sauna than a sanctuary. If you’re tossing, turning, and sweating through your sheets, it’s time for a real solution, not just another gimmick. 

At Texas Mattress Makers, we’ve helped thousands of customers sleep cooler and more comfortably with a revolutionary feature called Ice Blue Technology — and yes, it’s exactly what your summer nights have been missing. 

Why sleeping hot happens and how Ice Blue fixes it 

When you lie down on your mattress, your body naturally generates heat. That heat travels through the mattress fabric and into the comfort layers below, trapping warmth around your body as the night goes on, leaving you feeling uncomfortably warm. 

Ice Blue Technology changes that. 

This cool-to-the-touch fabric is designed to block body heat from penetrating the top layer of your mattress. It helps maintain a neutral, comfortable sleeping temperature so your sleep isn’t disrupted by tossing off the covers or flipping the pillow every 10 minutes. 

Unlike other so-called “cooling” fabrics that just feel cool when you touch them for a second, Ice Blue Technology continues to regulate your body temperature throughout the night. 

And the best part? We can apply this technology to any mattress style we make, so you never have to choose between comfort and coolness. 

Not just marketing — it’s proven 

Ice Blue isn’t a “cooling gel” gimmick — it’s tested, proven, and available exclusively at Texas Mattress Makers. And when paired with our recommended individually wrapped coils in the support layer, you get optimal airflow and body heat distribution from top to bottom. 

So whether you sleep on your back, side, or stomach, or you’re expecting and experiencing night sweats, Ice Blue helps take the edge off the Houston heat. 

How to add Ice Blue to your mattress 

When you visit any Texas Mattress Makers showroom in Houston, just ask about Ice Blue Technology. We’ll walk you through all the options and help you choose the best components for your specific sleep needs. 

Shopping online? You’ll see the Ice Blue fabric option during checkout — just click to add it and let us do the rest. And don’t worry, if you forget to mention it, we’ll still ask you if you sleep hot. Because we ask all the right questions to help you find the best mattress for your sleep. 

Featured Cooling Mattresses: The Hybrid Plus Collection

Cooling comfort built right in — with our exclusive Ice Blue Technology. 

If you’re looking for a mattress that helps you beat the Houston heat from night one, the Hybrid Plus Collection is a standout choice. This high-tech mattress line comes standard with our Ice Blue Technology already built in, giving you instant cooling relief without needing to add a thing. 

It’s the perfect solution for hot sleepers who want advanced pressure relief, breathable support, and temperature-regulating comfort in one ready-to-go design. Why Hybrid Plus is one of the best mattresses for your sleep in Houston:
 

• Built-in Ice Blue cooling technology for a noticeably cooler night’s sleep

The Hybrid Plus Mattress is a complete cooling sleep system, expertly designed to keep you comfortable no matter how hot it gets in Houston. 

And while Hybrid Plus is one of our top cooling options, it’s not your only choice — Ice Blue Technology can be added to any Texas Mattress Makers mattress for a customized, cooler night’s sleep that fits your personal comfort and style. 

Whether you build your own or go with this all-in-one favorite, Ice Blue keeps you cool where it counts.

Are you considering an adjustable bed frame but are still on the fence about the investment? 

When it comes to getting better sleep, the benefits of an adjustable base are unmatched compared to other mattress accessories; however, many sleepers are unaware of just how much they can elevate their sleep experience. If you have questions about getting a better night’s sleep, we have answers.

Our mattress experts are here to answer frequently asked questions (FAQs) surrounding adjustable bed frames so you can have a better understanding of what to look for when you’re shopping. 

Mattress experts Noah and Rachael come together to demonstrate how adjustable bases can enhance your sleep experience.

Is an adjustable base worth it? 

We’ll start with one of the more common questions we hear: Are adjustable beds worth it? Because adjustable bed frames have higher costs compared to standard mattress foundations, customers aren’t sure if they are worth the money. Here is why adjustable bases are 100% worth the investment:

• Adjustable bases offer versatility that other foundations can’t. These innovative bases allow you to elevate your head and feet to find your perfect comfort position while you’re sleeping, reading, watching TV, or working from your bed.
• Adjustable bases can alleviate common sleep problems. Issues like sleep apnea, acid reflux, snoring, and back pain can be resolved by adding an adjustable base to your mattress. The ability to customize your sleep position with elevation can keep airways open and your spine more aligned as you sleep.
• Adjustable bases can help couples with different preferences get better sleep. If you and your partner have different sleep needs and want to sleep in the same bed, an adjustable base allows each of you to personalize your positioning without disturbing the other.

For those with specific health concerns or anyone seeking customizable comfort options, an adjustable base can transform your sleep experience and provide value far beyond its price tag.

Expert Tip: While we believe an adjustable bed frame can significantly enhance your sleep experience, if you’re working within a tight budget, we recommend investing in a high-quality mattress first, as it plays the most critical role in supporting your body and promoting restorative sleep. An adjustable base can add value and luxury, but the foundation of healthy sleep always begins with the right mattress.

Can any bed go on an adjustable frame?

Unfortunately, not every mattress will be compatible with an adjustable mattress base. Many standard mattress stores may not have a bed that will suit an adjustable base, which can be disappointing if your heart is set on buying one.

The key issue is that certain bed styles often have fixed support systems or structural elements that restrict the base’s ability to move. Before purchasing a new mattress or adjustable bed frame, you want to ensure that the two are complementary to one another for maximum performance.

How do I know if my mattress will work with an adjustable frame?

When upgrading to an adjustable base, always check with the manufacturer of both your existing bed frame and the adjustable base to ensure they are compatible. 

Shopping with Texas Mattress Makers takes all of the confusion out of the shopping process. To make our selection as inclusive as possible, the majority of our products are adjustable-friendly mattresses. This is true even for our models with strong and sturdy supportive components. Whether you’re shopping online or in person at any of our Houston mattress stores, feel free to speak with an expert to ensure that your mattress pick is compatible with adjustable bases.

What type of mattress is best for an adjustable frame?

The best adjustable-friendly mattresses are latex mattresses, memory foam mattresses, and hybrid mattresses (mattresses made of coil support components and comfort foam components). The flexible properties of these materials allow them to flex and move seamlessly with the base’s movements without compromising support or comfort. For example, the individually-wrapped coil component found in our hybrid mattresses provides more movement and personalized response than traditional spring coils that are more rigid.

Who benefits from an adjustable bed?

The truth is that any sleeper can benefit from having an adjustable bed frame because you can customize the positioning of the bed for maximum comfort and spinal alignment. However, individuals with certain health conditions or mobility issues can benefit greatly from these bases.

• If you’re having to spend a substantial amount of time in bed (bed-bound), your comfort and sleep quality should be your top priority. Having an adjustable bed after surgery or for debilitating conditions can increase your comfort and overall quality of life. 
• Those who struggle with sleep apnea, acid reflux, or disruptive snoring can find relief by elevating the head with an adjustable base to keep the airways open throughout the night.
• People managing chronic pain conditions — including arthritis, sciatica, and lower back pain — often experience significant relief when they can customize their sleeping position to reduce pressure on sensitive joints and properly align the spine.
• Couples who have different sleeping positions and need different positioning requirements can each find comfort with an adjustable base.
• Adjustable beds make it easier for seniors and people with limited mobility to change positions without straining and get in and out of bed more easily. Raising the legs can also improve circulation and reduce swelling for anyone dealing with those issues.

Can a doctor write a prescription for an adjustable bed?

Yes, doctors can prescribe adjustable bases to patients! In Texas, licensed healthcare providers can prescribe a mattress as a medical necessity, making it sales tax-exempt. If you need a mattress for a condition, recovery from a surgery, or medical treatment, ask your doctor how a new mattress or adjustable base can support your recovery.

Do adjustable beds work for side sleepers?

Absolutely! Adjustable beds can be a great option for side sleepers, or any sleeping position, especially when paired with the right mattress. By slightly raising the head and feet, you can reduce pressure on the shoulders and hips while keeping your spine aligned. This helps relieve common pressure points and allows for more personalized comfort than a flat mattress. 

Find Your Perfect Adjustable Bed Frame for a Better Price

Shopping for an adjustable bed frame anywhere else can feel like a daunting task, especially with the high price tags, but Texas Mattress Makers offers top-quality adjustable bases for any budget. Whether you’re looking for a luxury or affordable adjustable bed frame, we have something for everyone. Our experts can help you find the best adjustable mattress base for your mattress or sleep needs with our diverse selection! 

When searching for an adjustable base, we take into consideration:

• Budget: What is your ideal price range? Knowing this helps narrow down options without compromising on comfort or quality.
• Health concerns: Do you have sleep apnea, chronic pain, circulation issues, or any other condition that affects your sleep? Adjusting your bed’s positioning can help with relief.
• Lifestyle habits: Do you often read, watch TV, work, or unwind in bed? An adjustable base can make these activities more comfortable and versatile.
• Sleep needs: Are you dealing with snoring, acid reflux, or trouble getting in and out of bed? Identifying your specific sleep challenges will help determine if — and how — an adjustable base can help.

While an adjustable base is not a necessity for quality sleep, it can enhance your sleep experience greatly, providing you with personalized comfort and proper support for years to come. Visit any of our mattress stores in Houston today to get the best sleep of your life.

If a mattress salesperson ever tells you that mattress body impressions are bad for you and your mattress, run — run far away. This misinformation has spread because some mattress industry leaders are still uneducated about what sagging is versus what body impressions are. They are not the same. Luckily, the mattress experts at Texas Mattress Makers are highly educated on the topic of healthy sleep and can dispel any mattress myths regarding mattress body impressions.

We’ll tell you now that mattress body impressions are actually essential for quality sleep, while a sagging mattress is a sign that you might need a new mattress — like we said, the two are not the same. Let’s review some frequently asked questions (FAQs) that we hear from our community so that you can become an educated mattress shopper and owner.

What is the difference between mattress sag and body impression?

While it may be difficult to tell them apart with the naked eye, sagging and body impressions are different indicators of your mattress’s health. In short: sagging is bad, and body impressions are good. 

	Mattress Sag	Mattress Body Impression
Shape	2-inch or deeper crater	Mimics your body’s curves
Location	Typically in the middle of the mattress	Where your body naturally lies on your mattress
Cause	Supportive components are breaking down	Mattress is adjusting to your body for proper support

Let’s dive a little deeper.

Mattress sagging can be identified by a 2” or more dip in mattress height and a crater shape typically in the middle of the mattress (although they can appear anywhere). This occurs when the mattress’s supportive components break down and can no longer support your body weight, resulting in a caved-in appearance and feel. A sagging mattress can result in aches and pains in your back, shoulders, and hips, worsening your sleep quality.

Mattress body impressions appear on your side of the bed, where your body naturally compresses into the mattress. If you look closer, the indentation should have subtle curves where your body lies on the mattress. The appearance of these body impressions can vary from sleeper to sleeper, depending on the type of mattress you have and your preferred sleeping position. This indicates that your bed’s components have conformed to your body and are correctly supporting your weight.

Why does my mattress have body impressions?

After working in the mattress industry for over 40 years, our founder, Youval Meicler, says this is his most frequently asked question. So, in order to set the record straight, here is a video detailing how mattress body impressions are created.

Far from being a flaw, body impressions are a natural and healthy part of the mattress settling in, helping ensure a more personalized and comfortable sleep over time.

When you are going through the process of breaking in a mattress, you and your mattress are taking time to adjust to one another. Mattress body impressions occur when your mattress’s components fully adapt to your specific body, weight distribution, and sleeping position to support you properly as you sleep. Every time you lie down to go to sleep, your mattress is ready to support your spine, your weight, and your position because of the body impression.

Think of how a new pair of shoes or a stiff pair of jeans takes time to mold to your feet or hips to be more flexible and comfortable — this is the same principle. The more you sleep on your mattress, the better it can provide the right comfort and support you need to get a good night’s rest every night.

Are mattress body impressions normal?

Yes! Not only are they normal, they’re necessary for healthy, restful sleep. Why? Because they promote proper spine alignment. 

As we sleep, our spine must remain neutral and relaxed to ensure our muscles, joints, and ligaments can fully rest and recover without being strained or pulled out of position. This prevents aches, stiffness, or long-term pain, especially in the neck, back, and hips. Good spinal alignment also promotes healthy circulation, better breathing, and more restorative rest.

We understand that seeing slight indents on a mattress can look concerning, but think of it this way: your body isn’t flat, so why would your mattress be? Having gaps between your body and your mattress means your weight distribution across the mattress is off, causing you to wake up with discomfort, potentially resulting in chronic pain down the line.

In short, yes, mattress body impressions are normal and are no cause for concern. They are a sign that your mattress’s components are high-quality and performing correctly.

What are some myths surrounding mattress body impressions?

Anytime we see a statement declaring that mattress body impressions are bad, we know we must do more to educate fellow industry professionals and consumers alike about the benefits of body impressions. Just so that you have all of the information, here are some common myths we hear often.

1. Myth: Sagging and body impressions are the same. As we’ve explained, a sag is a sign that your mattress’s components are weakening, resulting in a two-or-more inch crater.
2. Myth: Body impressions mean the mattress is defective. The truth is the opposite statement: body impressions are a sign that your mattress has adapted to your unique body.
3. Myth: Rotating or flipping the mattress can extend its lifespan. There are many things wrong with this statement.
   • Your body has not adjusted to each area of the mattress, which will cause discomfort.
   • Continuous sleep in one spot creates healthy body impressions for spinal alignment.
   • As long as the components are strong and top-quality, your mattress will last a long time without needing to be rotated or flipped.
   • Unless you have a double-sided mattress meant to be flipped, flipping a mattress will result in your body coming into contact with the support components that are on the bottom and not the comfort materials. Ouch.
4. Myth: A firm mattress won’t develop impressions. Even firmer mattresses will form body impressions over time. It’s less noticeable than in plush models, but any material that softens to your shape — like foam or padding — can show signs of use.

If you ever have a question about mattress body impressions, our experts are here to answer and educate so that you can get the best sleep possible.

Our Mattresses Facilitate Healthier Sleep

Now that we have discussed the benefits of mattress body impressions, we hope that you have a better understanding of what a healthy mattress and healthy sleep will look and feel like. As long as your weight distribution is equal and your spine is aligned correctly each night, your body will enjoy the restorative rest it needs to function.

Each mattress made by Texas Mattress Makers is crafted with top-of-the-line components that are designed to provide personalized comfort and support to your unique body. Our dedication to quality and long-lasting craftsmanship results in mattresses that can last a lifetime and provide you with the best night’s sleep possible each night.

Picture this: you finally upgrade your bed after finding what seems like the perfect mattress — only to wake up with unexpected back pain. I just bought this mattress, so why does it already feel uncomfortable? What am I going to do? Should I return it?

When wondering, “Why is my new bed hurting my back?” it’s common to automatically think that your new mattress is defective; however, the mattress experts at Texas Mattress Makers are here to explain why new mattress back pain can be a normal experience as well as what to expect when breaking in a mattress.

Here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) that we hear regarding new mattresses and back pain.

Can a new mattress cause back pain?

A new mattress can cause some discomfort in your back, but the reasons may not be what you expect. If your former mattress was low-quality and uncomfortable, a new bed with proper lumbar support might initially feel too firm, causing stiffness or discomfort as your spine realigns during sleep. Often, the mattress isn’t “bad,” it’s just different. 

Is it normal for the back to hurt with a new bed?

Yes, feeling stiffness or soreness in your back after sleeping on a new mattress is normal and usually nothing to worry about. While it might seem counterintuitive, a little discomfort in the first few weeks of sleeping on a brand-new mattress isn’t unusual! Here’s why:

1. Your body is still adjusting to your new mattress. We love to compare sleeping on a new mattress to breaking in a new pair of shoes. Just as you need to walk in new shoes for a while before they adjust to your feet, you need to sleep on your new mattress for a while before your body adjusts and begins to feel comfortable.
2. Your new mattress needs to break in. The components in a new mattress are still in their original, uncompressed state, often resulting in a firmer feel until the mattress has been used and begins to conform to your body. When you continuously sleep on your new bed, the components will begin to soften and mold to your specific body. 

In short, some discomfort is normal with a new mattress. You and your new bed need some time to get used to one another!

How long does it take for your back to get used to a new bed?

While this process may differ from person to person depending on the type of mattress or other personal factors, the mattress industry has a standard “break-in period” for new beds. How long does it take to break in a mattress? On average, it takes about 30-90 nights for your body to adjust to a new mattress completely after continuous use. In this video, mattress expert Rachael and founder Youval explain how the mattress break-in process works.

During this break-in period, the materials gradually conform to your unique body shape and preferred sleep position, helping to reduce pesky new mattress back pain and improve overall comfort. Once broken in, your mattress should feel more comfortable while continuing to properly support your body throughout the night.

Keep in mind that “breaking in” a mattress doesn’t mean the materials are weakening — they’re adapting to your sleep needs. Natural body impressions are part of the process and enhance how well your mattress supports your spine and relieves pressure points.

My new mattress hurts my back. What should I do?

If you’re experiencing new mattress back pain, we recommend waiting at least 30 nights (preferably 60) before reporting a comfort concern. If the pain persists after that initial period, here is what we recommend doing before contacting the mattress company. 

• Walk on the mattress. Want to know our expert trick for how to soften a firm mattress? Adding pressure by walking or crawling on your mattress can open up the cells in the materials and soften the components faster (depending on the type of mattress). Be careful not to jump on the bed or apply excessive pressure, as this can hurt the component’s integrity.
• Check your mattress’s support system. Even the best mattress can’t perform well without proper support. Using a sturdy, compatible foundation helps maintain the mattress’s structure, prevents sagging, and ensures you get the full benefits of its comfort and lumbar support, which is especially important if you’re trying to avoid back pain. 
• Add a mattress topper (temporarily). Do mattress toppers work? Mattress toppers can be a good temporary solution for the first few nights to help add more cushion to your bed. However, mattress toppers should not be used long-term as they can hinder the break-in process.

If, after 60 nights and completing these steps, you are still not satisfied with your mattress, contact your mattress retailer to see what can be done. Here at Texas Mattress Makers, our priority is to ensure each customer brings home a mattress that will provide them with optimal comfort for years to come.

Our 90-Night Comfort Guarantee allows our customers to make any exchanges or comfort modifications if they are still unsatisfied with their new bed after the break-in period has subsided (and before 90 nights). 

Did you know? Customers who have purchased a mattress from our premium Quantum™ Collection get an extended warranty period of 6 months to make any comfort modifications or exchanges!

What is the best mattress for lower back pain?

While other sellers might try to push a single solution, there isn’t one best mattress type for back pain. If you’re looking for a new mattress that will reduce your back pain, you need to figure out which support and comfort component(s) will best suit your body. The comfort components will soothe any aches and pains, while the support mechanisms keep your body suspended on the mattress and maintain spinal alignment for healthier sleep. 

Texas Mattress Makers offers mattresses with a variety of top-performing components that can address back pain, including:

•  Quantum™ Coil: The most supportive coil technology in the industry that houses 200% more coils than the average mattress for unmatched support and responsiveness. 
• Individually-wrapped coils: Because each coil is individually wrapped in its own pocket of fabric, they can independently respond to different areas of your body with more accuracy. 
• Top-tier performance foams: Our High-Resilience (HR) Foam, high-density foam, gel-infused memory foam, and other foam components surpassed industry standards regarding comfort and pressure relief.
• All-natural latex: Known for its buoyancy and incredible pain-relieving properties, latex is a luxurious component that conforms to your spine to keep your back aligned all night long. Texas Mattress Makers uses CertiPUR-US®-certified, all-natural latex made using the Talalay method in our latex mattress components. 

Find Your New (Forever) Mattress at Texas Mattress Makers

At the end of the day, the answer to “Why is my new bed hurting my back?” could be a combination of factors — your previous mattress, your sleep position, or simply not giving your body enough time to adjust. Remember that this is a normal experience for the first few weeks of sleeping on a new bed. If discomfort continues beyond the typical break-in period, don’t ignore it. A mattress should help you feel restored, not sore.

At Texas Mattress Makers, our mattress experts are here to help you find the right balance of comfort and support so you can wake up pain-free — no matter your sleep style. Whether you need better lumbar support, a softer surface, or just more guidance, we’ll work with you to make sure your mattress truly fits.

Made in Houston. Made for you.

When you shop local, you’re doing more than just supporting a business — you’re investing in people, in craftsmanship, and in a community that cares. That rings especially true at Living Designs Furniture and Texas Mattress Makers, two local businesses proudly serving Houston for over 45 years.

As the best-kept secret in the Houston furniture scene, their success is rooted not just in what they make, but in how they make it, and who they make it for.

A family-owned legacy built on love

Founded by Youval Meicler, these two companies are more than just a business — they’re a family legacy. Over the years, his children, Sarah, Rachael, and Noah, have joined him to help lead and grow the company. But what’s remarkable is that there was never any pressure to join. Youval simply wanted his children to be happy, fulfilled, and good people.

Now, that same spirit of warmth, respect, and integrity guides every decision they make from the shop floor to your living room.

A unique family dynamic that works

What’s it like working side by side with your siblings? Just ask Sarah. She works under her sister Rachael, who leads the company’s marketing, and she credits her sister’s leadership for helping her become the best version of herself within the business.

And for Youval? His greatest pride isn’t in how talented his kids are at business. It’s in the kind of people they’ve become. As he puts it, “The best gift any parent can receive is knowing their children are kind, caring, and good to others.”

Employees are family, too

Behind every handcrafted leather sofa, custom sectional, or premium mattress is a skilled team of artisans and craftspeople, many of whom have been with the company for decades.

Their roles are not replaceable. From expert upholsterers to specialized sewing technicians, these are real people with real expertise. Some employees have seen their children grow up, go to college, and return to work here. This is the kind of place where employee loyalty is earned, not expected, and where every worker is treated like family.

Our customers are at the heart of it all

Here’s what truly sets Living Designs Furniture and Texas Mattress Makers apart: the customer isn’t just a transaction — they become family.

From re-fluffing sofa cushions years later to swapping out a mattress that doesn’t quite work, their customer service goes far beyond the point of sale.

That’s why most of their business comes from referrals and repeat customers. These are real Houstonians recommending what they trust most.

Built on what matters most

At Living Designs Furniture and Texas Mattress Makers, everything begins and ends with people — family, employees, and customers. Whether it’s siblings working together, skilled craftspeople building by hand, or longtime customers returning for their next piece, this company is rooted in meaningful relationships and real connection.

For them, business isn’t just about what you sell, it’s about how you serve.

Handcrafted in Houston. Designed for your life.

Why Texas Mattress Makers is Still the #1 Choice for the Best Mattress in Houston

Although March is Sleep Awareness Month, Texas Mattress Makers has been helping people sleep better every month, every year, for the last 45 years. And we’re proud to say that every single mattress we’ve made in that time was crafted right here in Houston, Texas.

For us, this isn’t just a business. It’s a lifelong commitment to helping people find the best mattress for their sleep, their body type, and their lifestyle. If you want to know why Houston has chosen Texas Mattress Makers as its favorite mattress store in Houston, keep reading and get to know us, our mission, and what we can provide for you.

We’re not just a mattress store — we’re mattress experts

In a world filled with cookie-cutter mattress chains and flashy marketing promises, Texas Mattress Makers stands out because we are both the mattress manufacturer and the mattress retailer. For four and a half decades, every single mattress we sell right here at our factory in East Downton, Houston.

When you walk into our showroom, you’re not just browsing rows of products. You’re starting a conversation with people who have spent years studying how mattresses are built, how people sleep, and how to deliver lasting comfort. 

As experts, we know every detail that goes into each mattress we design with top-quality materials tested by third-party industry leaders. That’s why we’re known for having the best mattresses in Houston: we don’t sell from stockpiles; we’re creating what you truly need to get great sleep every night.

We understand your unique needs

Everyone sleeps differently, and that means there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all mattress. When we say other brands are “cookie-cutter,” we mean they sell the same few models to every customer. No personalization, no variety.

At Texas Mattress Makers, we take the time to learn about your sleep habits, physical needs, and comfort preferences so we can guide you to the best mattress for your sleep. We’ll discuss everything from pressure points to any comfort needs you or a partner possesses, and we’ll even offer customizations that no other retailer can offer. It’s not just about finding a good deal — it’s about making sure your mattress is the perfect fit for you.

For example, if you come in thinking you want a firm mattress to address your back pain, but your body says otherwise, we’ll tell you the truth. We’ve become known as the place to find the best mattress in Houston because we never sell just to sell. We build relationships and comfort that last.

Built in Houston. Trusted by Texans.

All our mattresses are handcrafted in our Houston-based factory, allowing us to control quality, craftsmanship, and comfort from start to finish. We don’t ship in bulk inventory or outsource materials; every screw, piece of foam, and wooden frame is sourced from the U.S.

Because we build everything locally, we’re able to offer consistent pricing without unexpected increases tied to overseas supply chains.

It’s also because of this local focus and commitment to excellence that we’ve built a reputation for providing the best mattresses in Houston. Over the years, we’ve proudly made mattresses for over 3 million Texans — and we’re just getting started.

Why our customers keep coming back

In an industry where return rates are high, ours are virtually nonexistent. In fact, 99% of our customers are happy with their mattress — and we’re working hard to make that 100%.

We don’t disappear after the sale. We’re in the customer service business, not just the mattress business. If something’s off, we want you to call us. We’ll work with you to fix it because that’s what real service looks like. And when our founder runs into customers on the street and they say, “I’m sleeping great,” it truly makes his day.

That’s the kind of pride that comes from 45 years of doing the right thing, the right way.

Our legacy started in Houston and stays in Houston

The story behind Texas Mattress Makers is just as handcrafted as the products we sell. Our founder started in the furniture industry decades ago, learning how to build quality pieces from the inside out. After years of wholesale manufacturing for big-name retailers, he realized customers weren’t getting what they deserved.

So, he opened up shop and started selling directly to the public. Why? Because he believed that people deserve transparency, expertise, and truly personalized comfort.

That belief is still at the heart of everything we do today. And it’s why generations of Houstonians have come to us for their sleep solutions. They know we care, and we’ve earned their trust.

Looking for the Best Mattress in Houston?

Whether you’re a side sleeper, back sleeper, or someone who just wants to stop tossing and turning, Texas Mattress Makers is your destination for the best mattress for your sleep made by experts, backed by service, and built right here in Houston.
