The Best Editor-Tested Bedding of 2024
Any category of home product you can think of, we’ve tested it here at Apartment Therapy. Bath towels, vacuums, air purifiers, and even cosmetic organizers have all been rigorously reviewed by our team. Bedding is no exception. We take our bedding very seriously, all the way from the mattress on the bottom to the quilt we put on top. Finding the winning combination of items is key to getting the best night’s sleep — but it’s no easy task considering how many brands and different types of materials are out there. However, that’s where we come in.
Each category of bedding requires its own specific set of testing criteria, but they all boil down to the trifecta of feel, durability, and performance. So we considered three main questions: Does this product do what it claims to do? What does it feel like? How long does it last? Bedding that exceeded our expectations landed at the top of our Best List series, and we’ve put them all in one place to make your shopping experience hassle-free. Whether you’ve been looking for the perfect set of sheets or are in the market for a whole new sleep setup, we’ve got you covered. Keep reading for the best bedding products that we tried this year:

Earning high scores for major features like pressure relief, comfort, and support, it’s no wonder Beautyrest Black Mattress was the Best Overall mattress winner this year. The Black Mattress is constructed out of the brand’s Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil Technology, which provides optimal core support. There are four different versions available, ranging from Series One to Series Four. The higher the number, the more pressure relief and support benefits it offers.
The mattress has gel memory foam, which contours to your shape, and temperature-regulating technology that transfers body heat away. This type of foam also channels airflow through the mattress, keeping you comfortable all night long. The brand also has 10 firmness levels for every type of sleeper. For instance, if you tend to end up on your stomach or back, extra firm is the way to go; if you’re a side sleeper that likes some extra cushion, you can’t go wrong with the plush pillow top option.
Commerce writer Haley opted for the Series Two with a medium feel, which is so thick that she’s started calling it her “princess bed.” “The gel memory foam immediately contoured to my body, while the triple-stranded pocketed technology absorbed any motion transfer,” her review reads. “I could bounce on one side, and the other side wouldn’t budge an inch. It’s ideal for light sleepers who share a bed — you won’t even notice someone else is there unless you reach out and touch them!”

Specifications:
Available in 4 models and 4 heights
3 layers featured in all models: Temperature-regulating cover, gel memory foam, and pocketed coils
Additional layers for premium mattresses include cooling foam, pressure-relieving foam, responsive latex, and conforming Nano coils
10 feels that include Medium, Firm, Extra Firm, Plush, and Pillow Top

Who It’s Best For: Those who sleep hot; those who want a highly customizable mattress that’ll accommodate your needs.
Good to Know: “I personally love the thickness of my Series Two, but it definitely wouldn’t fit all standard sheets, so that’s an important detail to consider,” Haley says. “Another thing to note is that you’ll need a box spring. If you don’t have one, be sure to factor that into the overall price.”

It also is equipped with an anti-slip bottom so it won’t budge during the night.
“I was presently surprised by this topper,” says executive lifestyle director, Charli. “It’s very cozy, yet it offers great support, great cooling effects, and lots of pressure relief.

Rarely in life is there a “total package” product that checks all the boxes, but the Sijo Eucalyptus Mattress Protector actually does. If you’re looking for comfort, utility, temperature regulation, sustainable materials, and an affordable price point all in one, look no further. Not only is it 100% waterproof, but it’s also made from eco-friendly Tencel lyocell, a fabric made from responsibly farmed bamboo and other wood sources. Don’t let the thought of sleeping on bamboo or wood scare you: These natural fibers actually create a super soft fabric that is naturally cooling, antimicrobial, and hypoallergenic. Unlike many other waterproof mattress pads that crinkle and have a plastic-y feel, Sijo’s Tencel fabric makes zero noise as you move around in bed. It also has a continuous elastic hem that wraps securely around the mattress, ensuring that it stays snugly in place and won’t bunch or shift.
Commerce editor Britt was impressed by how undetectable the Sijo mattress protector was when she tried it: “In the past, I’ve shied away from mattress protectors, thinking they’d be as noisy as they were when I was a kid. However, I really love this one from Sijo! It’s waterproof yet quiet, so I often forget it’s on my mattress. It doesn’t trap heat or get bunched up under my sheets, so I continue to sleep comfortably, and I love the assurance that my mattress is protected from spills, sweat, or any other mishaps that could affect its quality. It’s really the best!”

If you want to take your quality of sleep to the next level, allow us to point you in the direction of Cushion Lab’s CloudLoft Pillow. It has topped our list for a number of reasons: Its expert blend of softness and support, for one, that makes it suited for all kinds of sleepers. That can be attributed to its unique blend of foam and fluffy microfiber that makes you feel like you’re actually resting your head and neck on a cloud. The material contours to your shape, keeping you elevated and cocooned all night long. To top it off, it comes with a cover that’s smooth and cooling, and it claims to reduce hair frizz and sleep lines.
Allison, AT’s Director of Brand Activation, is a back and side sleeper, and she swears that the pillow is as lofty as it claims, allowing her “to sleep comfortably without sinking down or waking up with a stiff neck.”
“This pillow never flattened out and while it was filled and supportive it wasn’t too stiff. It was the perfect balance and conformed to my neck and shoulders,” she continues. “I never had to re-fluff the pillow in the middle of the night like I typically had to do with my other pillows that would flatten easily.

The dual-sided TEMPUR-Symphony Pillow combines the benefits of two pillow types into one product. One side of this Best List winner is slightly arched to appeal to back sleepers, while the other is flatter for those who sleep on their sides and stomachs. “This pillow is a hybrid sleeper’s dream!” says Charli. “I’m a side sleeper who often winds up on my back in the middle of the night. I love that I can flip it over to meet whichever need I have.”
Made from TEMPUR Material memory foam, the TEMPUR-Symphony Pillow is specially designed to relieve pressure and adapt to your specific shape the more you use it. “I have a lot of neck pain at night, and this pillow made me forget that was even a thing,” Charli says. It even comes with a hypoallergenic polyester cover that’s easy to remove and throw into the washing machine.

Best Pillow for Side Sleepers: Honeydew Side Sleeper Pillow
Honeydew Scrumptious Side Pillow
Amazon
$199
Family-owned and made in the USA for over 30 years, this successful business strives to bring comfort in every pillow they create. “This side-sleeper pillow blew me away,” says Charli. “Not only is it beautifully made, but it’s also the softest side sleeper pillow I’ve ever used that doesn’t sacrifice pressure relief or neck support. I was impressed with the unboxing, the cooling, and the night-after-night softness and support. This side sleeper is officially a believer!” Designed with cooling copper gel memory, the Honeydew Scrumptious Side Pillow not only works to cool you down at night, but it also adds softness to the overall feel. The fill is fully adjustable to your firmness needs, too, with help from the pillow’s hidden zipper.
“From my neck to my shoulders and even my back, I could instantly feel my body being aligned,” says commerce SEO editor Sarah. “Needless to say, I was excited to get to bed. That night I got what I can only describe as the best sleep of my life.” However, the proof is really in how she felt afterward. “The next morning, I woke up with no pain whatsoever, and more than four months later, I’m still sleeping the same. If I had to sum up my thoughts on this pillow in two words, it would be this: miracle worker.”

Mulberry Silk Pillowcase, Standard
Brooklinen
$47.20 (was $59)
Buy Now
Brooklinen’s Mulberry Silk Pillowcase is the best for a reason: It makes you feel like royalty as soon as it arrives. Made with ultra-smooth, long-staple mulberry silk, the pillowcase comes neatly rolled in a small box that makes it feel special before you even open it. Britt owns two of these stellar pillowcases, and one of the first things she noticed was “that the fabric slipped right between my fingers, which was a good sign for how it would affect my hair once I started using them.”
The biggest pro about this pillowcase, aside from its dynamic color availability, is how it feels. The silk is noticeably cool to the touch, which keeps you from needing to flip your pillows throughout the night for relief. “It was so nice to sleep on something super soft that doesn’t trap heat,” says Britt. “The pillowcases left my hair and skin looking perfect. I’m a stomach sleeper, so I know all about waking with pillowcase wrinkles on your face. With Brooklinen’s silk pillowcase, there’s no stiffness or resistance to cause bunching. As a result, I woke up with my skin as smooth as it was when I went to bed the night before.”

Baloo’s Weighted Silk Sleep Stone Mask has it all: light blocking, sound muffling, and mulberry silk that’s great for your skin, all of which earned it top marks from Britt. You can even pop it into the freezer during the summer for an extra bit of cooling — or year-round for a bit of de-puffing. The mask is weighted gently so that it conforms comfortably to your face, keeping it secure and in place all night long. There’s even a crystal sewn inside that’s meant to “channel good energy right to your third eye,” which can’t hurt. You can opt for amethyst, which is said to help to clear the mind for better sleep, or rose quartz for cultivating love.
“I usually sleep hot with sleep masks, which is why I don’t typically wear them, but this mask didn’t overheat my face at all!” Britt says, adding that it totally changed her stance on sleep masks. “It’s so cozy and I felt so relaxed when wearing it. My face didn’t sweat, and I slept like a baby! I love this mask so much that I even bring it with me when I travel!”

Nest Bedding consistently turns out some of our favorite bedding — its wool comforter is another one we love for the cooler months — so it comes as no surprise that its Silk Cloud Comforter has topped our list of comforter favorites. If wool or down (or down alternative) fills are a bit too heavy for you during the warmer parts of the year, silk is a solid bet, serving as an alternative that doesn’t retain heat. Combined with the smooth cotton cover, it really will leave you feeling like a lofty cloud covering you while you sleep. No more kicking off the comforter in the middle of the night!
You can take it from our commerce coordinator, Mila. She has always run hot while sleeping, but this breathable comforter has kept her from sweating throughout the night, even during the summer. “As someone who used to constantly toss and turn in their sleep from how hot my comforter made me, this Silk Cloud Comforter adds the perfect level of coziness while still giving me that cooling effect,” she explains. “And I can still snuggle up in it sometimes without needing to turn the AC on!”

Approved by Oprah and AT editors alike, Cozy Earth excels in home comforts from bedding and bath essentials to loungewear. The brand’s Bamboo Duvet Cover was THE editor-favorite this year, boasting 17 colors that match the beloved bamboo sheet set. Made with 100% premium viscose, a fabric derived from bamboo pulp, this silky smooth duvet cover is a step up from the norm.
“I’ve tested a lot of duvet covers over the years, but this Cozy Earth one takes the cake,” says SEO commerce editor Sarah. “It’s one of the softest I’ve ever tried, it keeps me cool (a must as a hot sleeper), and it comes in some of the prettiest colors I’ve come across. But the best part about this duvet is how smart the interior design is. Most duvet covers feature ties or snaps in each of the four corners, but this duvet adds extra snaps to the center of each side, making sure your insert never moves. I truly don’t think I’ll ever use another duvet cover again.”
Specifications:
100% bamboo
Bottom tie closure with interior snap closures
Available in 3 sizes and 17 colors
Machine wash cold; tumble dry normal
100-night sleep trial
Who It’s Best For: Those who want a duvet cover that can be used all year long; those who prefer a cooling duvet cover; those who love bamboo bedding.
Good to Know: This duvet cover is also available in a linen-bamboo blend. “I have a thing for linen — its natural charm and comfort make it a top pick for my bedding. So, when I was handed this duvet to test, my immediate response was a straightforward ‘yes, please,’” Haley says in her review. “What sealed the deal for me were the practical features: snap closures for a secure fit (no annoying ties!) and a discreet zip closure that blends into the overall design. All I wish is that they would have more color options so I could get another to match my bedroom!”

Quince sells directly to consumers, forgoing the high costs associated with traditional retail supply chains. “I used this blanket to replace a similar model I had from a more expensive brand,” he adds. “This blanket seems a little sturdier, which is surprising because of how light it feels overall. I’ve been using it as my primary blanket during the winter — it’s that warm!”

A high-quality sheet that also doesn’t leave you drenched in a pool of your own sweat in the morning is already not an easy find. But to find sheets that not only cool you down, don’t shed after a first wash, and get even softer the longer you use them? Almost impossible! That’s why when we do discover a set that checks all of those boxes, we shout it from the rooftops. You’ll find Charli doing just that about Sleep Number’s True Temp sheets.
There are a number of features that makes this set stand out above the rest: The brand’s 37.5 Technology, for one, is built to absorb and release excess heat. Its design creates a perfect fit around your mattress, even if you have an adjustable smart bed. Last but not least, the fully elasticized edge guarantees that they don’t budge.
“I’m beyond impressed with the softness of this sheet set and its cooling capabilities,” Charli says. “It kept me cool all night (which is a huge feat) and washes so easily. The Exact Fit design is really important because as a hot sleeper when I sweat and stick to the sheets at night, they often move or shift. Not these! They’re practically perfect!”

“These are the PERFECT sheets for summer, or for year-round use if you’re a hot sleeper,” says AT shopping writer Nikol. “The material is durable but very thin and lightweight. It wrinkles easily, but I like this vibe for summer; it makes the sheets look breezy and casual. The breathability is excellent. I got my sheets in white, but they come in other cool colors, like vanilla and warm clay.” Available in six colors, four of which are limited edition, these organic sheets are the epitome of effortlessly chic.
