Truly restful sleep is vital to our mental and physical health.

I tend to think of sleep as charging your phone or laptop. You need to charge it daily in order to refuel and energize it. If you don't, and the battery gets drained, it will eventually shut down. At that point, the device is pretty much a paperweight until it gets charged.

Unfortunately, a lot of us take sleep for granted. This is despite the fact that studies have found that a consistent sleep schedule can improve a range of physical and mental health issues. Specifically, your body needs a good night's rest to reap the following health benefits:

While there are plenty of hacks for you to get close to the best sleep ever, like following a sleep schedule and keeping your bedroom cool, dark, and quiet, nothing beats a quality mattress. In fact, according to a National Sleep Foundation survey, 92% of respondents said a comfortable mattress is vital to a good night's sleep. As it turns out, having a good mattress does improve sleep by relieving back pain and reducing stress.

In short, don't skimp on your mattress. It's worth the investment. Even if the initial cost seems high, a top-notch mattress will last for years to come.

However, it's important to note that there is a wide range of mattresses to choose from, and no mattress is naturally better than the other. Therefore, I've come up with a list of the best mattresses that include memory foam, latex, and hybrid mattresses. I personally have slept on each one of the mattresses that I recommend. I've personally slept on each one a minimum of 30 days. There are many mattresses people recommend that they try out for one night — not my style. I don't want you dropping the type of money some of these top mattresses call for without having me (and my wife) sleep on them for an extended period of time.

Below are my top picks for the best luxury mattresses that you should treat yourself to.

In my opinion, you would be hard-pressed to find a better luxury mattress online other than the Solaire Adustable Mattress by Saatva.

For starters, it features a flex top and a lienal adjustable base. That makes this a completely customizable mattress with 50 precise firmness options offering comfort for any sleeping position. It also comes in a variety of sizes including Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, Split King, and California King.

On average, Saatva mattresses have received a rating of 9.7/10 for their customers. But, if you're still on the fence, the company offers a 180-night home trial. And, if you do fall in love with the mattress, there's a favorable 25-year warranty.

Also, unlike its competitors, Saatva provides free in-room delivery and setup. In addition to the mattress, you can also pair it with a bed base, such as a foundation or adjustable base. Not only will this make your luxury mattress the star of your bedroom, but it will also extend its life.

I have several family members who are either tall or heavy — in some cases both. One frequent complaint that they've had is that they've never been able to find a mattress that suits their needs. Thankfully, Saatva has solved his problem.

Described as the first luxury heavy-duty mattress, which can support people weighing up to 500 pounds, it strikes the balance between comfort and durability by featuring:

As with other Saatva mattresses, there's free in-room delivery and setup, as well as a 180-night home trial. There's also the company's exceptional 20-year warranty and 24/7 customer support.

One of my best friends purchased this mattress from Sleep Number. And, he's made a vow to never go back to any other mattress. With a 4.8 rating out of 5 stars, I don't think that he's alone.

The i8 360 Smart Bed has won people over by offering the following features:

You can try the mattress for up to 100 nights after technicians set up the bed. There's also a decent 15-year warranty. However, to get the most out of this mattress, you'll need to purchase it along with either the FlexFit™ Base or FlexFit™ 3 Smart Base.

Handmade in Los Angeles, the Organic Plush Mattress from Avocado features 21 premium layers of organic and natural latex, wool, mohair, silk, hemp, and cotton. In addition, it contains up to 3,136 individually pocketed coils that were arranged in five zones to provide support and motion isolation.

Unlike other plush or soft memory foam mattresses that lack essential support, the Organic Plush Mattress is both plush and supportive leaving you with back and/or neck pain. It's also made from organic and recycled products meaning that you can enjoy a decadent sleep on a non-toxic and sustainable mattress.

The Avacado Organic Plush Mattress comes in the following two options;

Personally, I also like the fact that there's free shipping and an in-home setup, as well as a one-year trial. There's also a 25-year warranty. Just note that the mattress requires deep pocket sheets.

Perhaps the most sophisticated adjustable bed on the market is the DUX Dynamic. As well as combining the benefits of a traditional DUX bed with elevation capabilities, this bed is also equipped with a separate headrest that can be adjusted. As such, this makes reading in a bed a more relaxing and enjoyable experience as you're no longer like a professional wrestler grappling with your pillows to get comfy. I also think that this mattress would be perfect for the elderly or anyone who has trouble getting in and out of bed.

In addition, researchers at the Karolinska Institute found that those who slept on DUX beds fell asleep faster and stayed in deep sleep for longer - approximately one hour more per night.

Tempur-Pedic claims that the "TEMPUR-Cloud's comfort layer provides up to 40% more pressure-relieving power than the next closest competitor." Whether you believe that or not, the mattress uses proprietary TEMPUR® Material that will:

Moreover, the mattress includes the following layers:

You can test the mattress out for 90 days and there's a 10-year warranty. But, you can also rest easy with its award-winning customer satisfaction from J.D. Power.

Who wouldn't enjoy a mattress that naturally cools down on hot summer nights? If so, this is one of the biggest advantages of the Intelligent Sleep Pod Pro. It's an eight-inch smart mattress that features a state-of-the-art cooling system. With hydro-powered technology, the surface sleeping temperature can be reduced to as low as 55 degrees. As my daughter always sleeps hot, I get this mattress for her. However, during the cooler months, you can raise the temperature to as high as 110 degrees.

I'm also a fan of the app and how convenient it is to control the temperature. Moreover, the mattress is extremely comfortable as it consists of the following five layers:

With Active GridTM, heat is absorbed from the bed and then removed with water. In addition to its flexible design, the grid contours to the body, providing pressure relief.

Pod Pro can be returned within 100 days of delivery, and the foam portions are covered by a 10-year warranty. For everything else, the warranty is two years.

As with Tempur-Pedic, Purple has a phenomenal reputation for online customer satisfaction. In fact, for two years in a row, the company has been listed as #1 in customer satisfaction by J.D. Power for support, price value, customer care, warranty, and comfort. But, is this mattress really worth the hype?

Well, I would say so as it features:

As if that weren't enough the Purple Hybrid Premier 4 provides ultimate comfort thanks to:

Purple provides a 100-night trial, a 10-year warranty, and free shipping. And, if you want to get the most bang for your buck, you should consider bundling the mattress with a foundation, comfort sheets, mattress protector, and Purple's iconic Harmony pillows.

Last, but certainly, not least, there's the Matrix Grand Intellibed which promises the ultimate luxury experience. How so? Intellibed's ultimate sleeping comfort for restorative sleep is provided by two layers of Gel Matrix® technology and one layer of Titanium Fiber technology.

Moreover, the mattress comes equipped with:

The average customer rating from the Matrix Grand Intellibed is a solid 4.5 out of 5. The company was also the recipient of the Women's Choice Award. There's also a 90-night trial, financing options, and a 20-year warranty.

Are you losing sleep or waking up in pain? If yes to either, then that's an obvious sign that it's time for a new mattress. You might also want to speak to your doctor about this since it could indicate a sleep disorder or underlying health condition.

Another suggestion is to look at the mattress and feel it to determine if it needs to be replaced. When a mattress sags or develops lumps or shows signs of damage such as rips, cracks, or broken coils, it's no longer suitable to sleep on. While a mattress topper or rotating it might help you extend its life, it's only a temporary fix. Eventually, you will have to replace the mattress.

Since entrepreneurs generally don't get enough sleep, it's recommended that you select a mattress that will help you get a good night's rest. And, you shouldn't cling to an old bed if it's preventing you from getting quality sleep.

If you're looking for a mattress, a simple rule of thumb is to find the right one for you, whether you're a small business owner, a CEO, or a freelancer. There are several key factors to consider when choosing a mattress, including:

Additionally, customers should do their due diligence on mattress companies before making a purchase. After discovering a brand's policies, reading customer reviews will let you know wheter the company is trustworthy or not.

To help you choose the right mattress, here are five main types of mattresses.

When you can afford it, you may be tempted to upgrade to a king-sized mattress. But, the mattress size you choose will determine how comfortable you are in your bedroom. For example, when it's too small, you'll either roll over or your feet will dangle over the edge. On the other hand, if it's too big, your room may become too cluttered and you won't have enough space for additional furniture.

The following is a list of standard mattress sizes and their dimensions offered by most mattress companies.

It's advised that you allow 36 inches of walkway space between your bed and the mattress at its foot when choosing what mattress size is right for your bedroom. In a small bedroom, a huge mattress shouldn't be a necessity. A large mattress limits what furniture you can place in your bedroom and causes a feeling of claustrophobia.

Unless it's made from high-quality materials, an expensive mattress isn't worth the price. For added aesthetic features or other fancy features, you can consider a high-priced mattress. A mid-priced, well-made mattress is often enough for most sleepers.

In addition, an expensive mattress may also be thicker than most people prefer. Many people who want a luxury mattress will find what they're looking for between 12 and 14 inches.

Buying a cheap mattress is not the same as buying a poorly made mattress. In fact, a lot of budget mattresses are actually quite comfortable. However, they don't have as many features.

Regardless, shopping online for a new mattress is the best way to get a great deal. Due to lower overhead and available distribution channels, companies offering online mattress sales tend to offer cheaper prices than traditional brick-and-mortar mattress stores. They also tend to offer lengthy sleep trials and free shipping.

You can always find deals throughout the year, such as Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day. And, don't forget the upcoming Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.

The longevity of your mattress depends on the materials it's made of. As a general rule, coil mattresses sag more easily, so their lifespan is shorter.

For each type of mattress, the average life expectancy is:

Understanding the sleep trial and warranty will help you:

With sleep trials, customers can test out mattresses at home for several months. Their popularity was largely due to online bed-in-a-box companies that didn't allow customers to try before they bought, thus reducing your risk to an absolute minimum.

Your mattress is covered by a warranty if it's faulty. Manufacturers usually provide a full and free replacement during the warranty period for premature sagging and manufacturing defects.

It's important for you to make sure the mattress you select comes with a trial period of 100 nights and a 10-year warranty. A brand that offers anything less is a sign that it is unconvinced of its own product. Also, don't accept a generic 30-day return policy.

You should always check the company website to see what customers have to say. In the event that you are unable to find any reviews, or if only highly rated reviews are available, consider it as a red flag. It indicates that the company is not eager to take customer feedback into account.

You shouldn't just look at the website of the company to find reviews. Look for feedback on Amazon and other third-party websites selling the mattress.

Shopping online versus in-store is a topic of debate for many people. If you're looking to compare and research mattresses, we recommend shopping online. Even so, many people appreciate the opportunity to try mattresses in person at a store.

Don't forget, however, that you can get the best of both worlds by visiting brick-and-mortar stores that are owned by an online brand. Low prices and home delivery are both available, just like online. The stores occasionally have exclusive items as well. It's also possible for other mattress brands to distribute their products through national chains such as Mattress Firm.

Several studies concluded that medium-firm mattresses reduce back pain. Your preferred sleeping style, however, will dictate the best option. A side sleeper with back pain, as an example, may benefit from a medium mattress that is supportive.

When you're an entrepreneur, you spend most of your day researching and making various critical decisions. As such, buying a mattress online doesn't have to be an unnecessarily time-consuming, or stressful event. You can narrow your search to a few good mattress options if you know your sleeping position and body type. Regardless of a shopper's budget, the best mattresses can be found at all price points.

Have you finally discovered a good mattress online? In the event that it comes with a trial period, order it and try it from the comfort of your home. And, if you're not completely satisfied with the mattress, you are free to return it later.
