Better Sleep in the New Year: How to Choose the Right Mattress for 2026

by Hush HomeFurnishings

A new year is the perfect time to reset habits—and at Hush Home Furnishings, we believe better days start with better sleep. From your energy levels and mood to how your body recovers overnight, quality sleep impacts every part of daily life. If you’re waking up sore, tossing and turning, or feeling unrested, your mattress may be working against you.

January is peak season for sleep and wellness, making it an ideal time to evaluate whether your current mattress is truly supporting your health goals for 2026. With a wide selection of mattresses in stock and ready to try, Hush makes it easy to compare comfort levels, materials, and support styles side by side—no guesswork, no pressure. Our trained sleep experts take the time to understand how you sleep and guide you toward the right fit for your body and lifestyle.

Understanding Mattress Types: What’s Right for You?

Choosing the right mattress starts with understanding the differences between today’s most popular options. At Hush Home Furnishings, we carry a wide range of mattress styles in store, so you can actually feel the differences—not just read about them.

Pocket Coil Mattresses

Pocket coil mattresses use individually wrapped coils that respond independently to movement. This provides excellent support, strong edge stability, and reduced motion transfer—making them a great choice for couples or anyone who prefers a more traditional, supportive feel. With multiple firmness levels available, our team can help narrow down which coil system best matches your comfort needs.

Foam Mattresses

Foam mattresses contour closely to your body, relieving pressure points and supporting proper spinal alignment. They’re especially popular for side sleepers and those who prefer a quieter, motion-absorbing sleep surface. Trying different foam densities in store is key, as not all foam mattresses feel the same.

Tempur-Pedic® Mattresses

Tempur-Pedic® mattresses are made with proprietary TEMPUR® material that adapts precisely to your body’s shape, weight, and temperature. Known for exceptional pressure relief and motion isolation, they’re ideal for sleepers seeking deep contouring support and minimal sleep disturbance from a partner. Our trained sleep experts can walk you through the different Tempur-Pedic® feels to find the right balance of support and comfort.

Latex Mattresses

Latex mattresses are known for their responsive support, durability, and natural breathability. Latex gently contours without the “sinking” feeling of traditional foam, making it a great option for sleepers who want pressure relief with easier movement. They’re also a popular choice for customers looking for more natural materials and long-lasting performance.

Hybrid Mattresses

Hybrid mattresses combine the benefits of both foam and pocket coils. They offer pressure relief and contouring on top with the support and airflow of coils underneath, making them one of the most versatile and popular choices heading into 2026. With several hybrid models available to test side by side, finding the right feel becomes much simpler.

Adjustable Bases: Supporting Your Wellness Goals

Sleep wellness in 2026 goes beyond the mattress alone. Adjustable bases are becoming a must-have for those focused on comfort, recovery, and overall health.

An adjustable base allows you to elevate your head or feet, which can help reduce snoring, relieve pressure on the lower back, improve circulation, and support recovery after long days. Many models also include features like zero-gravity positioning, massage functions, and customizable presets—perfect for reading, relaxing, or watching TV in bed. Seeing these features demonstrated in store helps you decide what’s truly worth it for your lifestyle.

When Is It Time to Replace Your Mattress?

If you’re unsure whether you need a new mattress, consider these signs:

  • Your mattress is 7–10 years old

  • You wake up with aches, stiffness, or back pain

  • You notice sagging, lumps, or uneven support

  • Your sleep quality improves when you’re away from home

An aging mattress can negatively affect sleep quality and overall health, even if the wear isn’t immediately visible.
