Only one-third of mattresses suit side-sleepers
scmp.com —
Hong Kong's Consumer Council has found that only one-third of tested mattresses are suitable for side-sleepers. The council advises consumers to test mattresses before purchasing. The study revealed that mattress price does not guarantee performance. An Ikea mattress priced at HK$2,499 scored as high as an HK$8,260 Simmons mattress. The council tested 14 mattresses from various brands, including Ikea and Sealy. Prices ranged from HK$2,299 to HK$9,328, with performance varying significantly for side sleepers.
