Sleeping Type

Leesa Mattresses9.2

All three mattresses come with the same level of firmness – the universally accepted medium-firm position on the firmness scale. This makes the mattresses suitable for every kind of sleeper (Back, stomach or side sleepers).

Nolah Mattresses9.6

All Nolah mattresses are exclusively made for back and side sleepers with the exception of Nolah Signature 12″ Mattress and Nolah Limited Edition 12″ Mattress. These two exceptions cater for the need of stomach sleepers with their 2-side firmness flipabble construction.

This means that these two exceptions are suitable for every kind of sleeper while the other two – Nolah Limited Edition 10″ Mattress and Nolah Original 10″ Mattress are made for back and side sleepers since they fall within the soft and medium-firm range of the firmness scale.

This range is universally ideal for every sleeper but stomach sleepers can demand it a little more on the firm side which the flippable mattresses from Nolah affords adequately.

Dimensions

Conclusion

Nolah is a top brand that offers four mattresses which are all made of foams. There’s a flippable mattress in its collection which offers the best of both worlds (soft and firm feel) to sleepers. Nolah’s mattresses are made for side and back sleepers majorly, but stomach sleepers can still enjoy it.

Leesa is another leading brand with three mattresses mixing all-foam and hybrids in its collection.

Nolah deploys an Airfoam^TM technology to offer cool comfort and pressure relief on its mattresses.

However, Leesa offers better value for money on all three mattresses when it comes to comfort and support.

With highly breathable covers, hole punched comfort layers and supportive coils, Leesa offers a better sleeping experience and maximum support from coils for the alleviation of back pains, increased spinal alignment and reduced level of pressure.
