I'm often asked the question "what's the best mattress for couples?"
What an absolutely great question. I say that because the answer I come up with is going to satisfy one person while upsetting the other. It would seem that I can't win...or can I?

The perfect mattress for one person might be the very uncomfortable for another.
Wars have been started over lesser issues than two people trying to agree on which mattress to buy. Remember the toothpaste conflict? Do you roll the tube or just keep squeezing it?...and how about toilet paper, does it roll from the front or from the back side?
Selecting the best mattress for couples, with different ideas of what's comfortable, can be the stuff conflict is made of. Some people think they need a rock hard mattress because that's what they've been told that by their doctor or a well meaning friend. (by the way, I'm not a physician so if you want health or medical advice, please seek a licensed, competent professional) What they actually need is a mattress that will provide support to their body in various places, especially the lower back.
If you've ever had a "bad back" you know that it's no fun to lie in bed trying to get to sleep with your back aching. Then once you're asleep, waking up during the night because you rolled over and got a sharp pain is not funny either. Now, add to this the person you're sleeping with who insists that their mattress has to be soft and cushy. It's not going to make for a very pleasant relationship...right?
Well, there are ways to come up with a win/win situation. It'll just take a little creativity.
Most of the time a memory foam mattress will the best mattress for couples because even though the foam is semi-soft it has extremely good support characteristics. You need to shop for a good quality, high density mattress to get this support.
Even with memory foam there might be an issue. If this is the case, you may want to select a split queen or split king mattress. For instance, a split king mattress is just two twin long mattresses set side by side on a boxed spring or foundation of the same size.
You can make them up as one bed, using king sized sheets, and each person can select the mattress that they'd feel most comfortable sleeping on. Voila! Problem solved.
So, you see, the best mattress for couples might, actually, be two mattresses.
Another solution is to find a manufacturer who makes custom mattresses and have one made that's firm on one side and soft on the other. This will give each person a comfortable night's sleep.
