8+ Best Medium Mattresses. Buy (or Avoid??)

Medium tension mattresses are increasingly popular and for good reason. When choosing a mattress the most important thing to get right is the firmness within a mattress as this is what levels your body and ensures each part of your body is receiving adequate support. If you are heavier than average you may need a firmer mattress than someone lighter than average. Same too with how you sleep, back sleepers typically prefer a firmer mattress than side sleepers who prefer a soft or medium tension.

Regardless of the advice you receive, tension is very much tied to comfort and it is very much subjective as to the level of firmness you will enjoy. With that said however, medium tension is generally regarded as the goldilocks of mattresses and offers the greatest chance of support that suits most.
