How To Choose The Best Affordable Mattress in a Few Easy Steps

March 28, 2025 | Written by SleepyCat Team

Zie is in her scientist mode and is here to give you some real  advice on sleeping well. Good sleep is therapeutic, especially when you’re stressed. And as Zie says, “Sleep Solves Everything.” So, she brings this guide to help you find the mattress for you:

Money crunch? Do not worry; let us look at some affordable options: 

Sleeping Position

  • What type of a sleeper are you? 

This is the real question. Finding the perfect mattress means choosing one that supports your spine properly. Back sleepers typically need a firm, supportive mattress, while side sleepers often benefit from something a bit softer. Here’s what you need to ask yourself before getting a mattress.

Type of Mattresses

  • What’s inside the mattress? 

The fill in your mattress is the real deal. From memory foam mattresses to latex mattresses, what truly makes a difference is what’s inside – it impacts your wallet, and your sleep. Luckily for you, you can always find the best affordable mattress within all of them.

  • Define your budget

Before you begin looking for the mattress, think about your budget. The best mattress for sleeping does not necessarily have to be the costliest one. Your mattress will not have you consider selling your organs. You can find the one you want between ₹9,000  and ₹30,000. 

  • Are you a hot sleeper?

The ideal temperature to sleep is between 15.6°C to 19.4°C. While yes you can control the temperature of your room, you can also control the temperature of your mattress. Natural latex mattresses are naturally breathable. Now imagine a mattress engineered with pinhole latex. That will do the trick. But, listen to me first, what about an ultra cool mattress cover? Sounds Cool? Yes, it is. SleepyCat has these amazing mattress toppers made from CoolTecTM fabric. It is designed to stay 4° cooler than your body temperature.

Use this small checklist to help you select an ideal mattress on a budget:

  • Height of the mattress:

The ideal height options are 6 inches and 8 inches. This suits most body types and bedframes while providing optimal support. 

  • The top-layer provides the perfect comfort and support. It keeps your body aligned and helps you sleep like a baby.

Always check the first layer on the mattress, as that is what your body will be in immediate contact with. Make sure it is hypoallergenic and gives you the support you need.

  • Easy Maintenance:

Look for features like removable covers and easy-to-clean fabrics. After all, sleep hygiene adds to the quality of your sleep. All SleepyCat mattresses come with removable zipper covers. Simply unzip, wash, and zip them back on to keep the mattress feeling as good as new.

  • Warranty Period and Policy:

Go for a brand that offers what it promises. Just like SleepyCat, it provides a 10-year warranty on their mattresses and a 100-night free trial policy. So, you can test out the mattress till your heart’s content, and the company still has your back. Literally.
