How do you find the right mattress to sleep on?
Latex or foam, hard or soft, with or without a cover, cheap or outrageously expensive?
Stiftung Warentest takes a close look at 14 models.
Munich - As the saying goes, "The longer you sleep, the less you live".
That's why no one will claim to want to lie in bed as long as possible.
Everyone knows that the more comfortable the lying area is, the harder it is to get up from time to time.
And nobody really wants to do without a good sleeping pad.
It is not that easy to find the right model.
Stiftung Warentest tested a total of 14 mattresses.
Including seven foam and seven latex mattresses.
With the result: there is the right one for everyone.
Reason enough to be on the
lookout for this year's
Black Friday .
Because usually on this discount day, November 25th, there are many offers from well-known manufacturers at bargain prices.
The testers are primarily concerned with the lying properties of the mattress models.
These include pressure distribution, epaulette effect, comfort properties and resistance to changes in position.
Durability, reference, handling and advertising are also taken into account.
A total of nine models received the quality rating “Good”.
Seven foam models convinced the testers:
Foam mattress manufacturer | quality judgement | price in euro |
Badenia Irisette Büsum KS | 2.2 | 350.00 |
Breckle Weida Pro Body S 592 | 2.0 | 370.00 |
MFO Vitasan Star H3 | 2.3 | 400.00 |
Badenia Trendline BT 260 | 2.4 | 149.00 |
Billerbeck Hermione | 2.2 | 400.00 |
MFO VitaSan comfort | 2.0 | 450.00 |
Schlaraffia myNap | 2.1 | 290.00 |
Two models made of latex received the grade "Good":
Manufacturer latex mattress | quality judgement | price in euro |
Allnatura Sanastar Comfort | 2.2 | 760.00 |
Hilding Sweden Lotta | 2.3 | 256.00 |

Black Friday in Germany: Three mattresses are suitable for fat, thin, small and large people
The testers found out in their investigation that
people of all body shapes
can lie well on three mattresses, both on their side and on their back.
These include the foam
models MFO VitaSan Comfort
and
Billerbeck Hermine
as well as
Allnatura Sanastar-Comfort
made of latex.
So it doesn't matter whether the people are fat, thin, tall or short.
According to the test results, you feel comfortable on all three models.

Wrong idea of saving: Tenants should not heat like this in winter
Opinions differ when it comes to the
firmness
of a mattress.
In addition, according to Stiftung Warentest, there is still a "hardness chaos" in labeling.
Nevertheless, the investigation shows that a soft mattress can support the spine just as well as a hard one.
That means: The firmness of the bed can be selected according to preference and comfort.
Our tip: If you want to order a model online on
Black Friday
, you should have tried it out in a mattress shop beforehand.
Black Friday: What speaks for a latex, what for a foam mattress?
Foam mattresses have good thermal insulation.
They are therefore a suitable type of mattress for anyone who freezes easily.
But the good insulation also has disadvantages: foam mattresses are less permeable to air.
Heat and moisture can cause them to sag over time.
In the test, the MFO model scores particularly well for 450 euros with the best lounger properties.
Discount Battle on Black Friday, November 25th:
designation | Black Friday, November 25th |
origin | United States |
Companies involved | Amazon, Apple, Media Markt, Saturn, Otto, stationary retail |
More days of action | Cyber Monday, Prime Days, Black Week, Boxing Day |
Latex mattresses score above all because of their comfort.
However, they are usually quite expensive and weigh between 20 and 30 kilograms.
Anyone who moves often should therefore think carefully about whether the mattress has to be made of latex.
At least handles should be attached to the mattress for better transport and turning.
So it shouldn't be a problem to find the right model for everyone on Black Friday.
At Amazon, the offer on the discount day is diverse, the cheapest models are available from around 80 euros.
And Otto's online shop also promises its customers sensational deals at unbeatable prices for furniture, fashion and multimedia on Black Friday.
Smartwatches, raclette, tablets and vacuum cleaners were particularly popular with customers on Black Friday 2021.
