    Best Twin mattresses for kids

    1. Tuft & Needle Twin Mattress (best memory foam mattress)
    2. Midway Jenna hybrid twin mattress (best hybrid mattress)
    3. Linenspa innerspring twin mattress

    1. Tuft & Needle Twin Mattress

    Tuft & needle make one of the most incredible memory foam mattresses on the market. With over 10,000 five star reviews, this mattress is easily our favorite.

    Both my kids each have one, and it's really quite amazing!

    What we like:

    • Offer 100 night trial- try the mattress for 100 nights, and if you don't like it return it.
    • Cooling- if you or your kids are hot sleepers, this mattress is great for staying cool while you sleep. A lot of memory foam products can't say this, but this one really does stay cool.
    • You don't sink into it-a lot of memory foam mattresses you feel like you sink into. With this mattress, you don't.
    • 9.5 inch thick mattress
    • 10 year limited warranty
    • It's medium firmness.

    What we don't like:

    • It's probably one of the most expensive memory foam mattresses.

    2. Midway Jenna Hybrid Twin Mattress

    A more affordable option is this hybrid twin mattress from Modway. It's a hybrid option combining memory foam and wrapped coils.

    What we like:

    • Multiple layers offering a truly comfortable sleep.
    • 10 year guarantee
    • 10 inch thick mattress
    • It's more affordable than the Tuft & Needle.

    What we don't like:

    • It's a firmer mattress.
    • It's not as cool as the Tuft & Needle.

    3.Linenspa

    This Linenspa innerspring mattress is a great budget-friendly mattress for kids.

    What we like:

    • 5 inches of tempered steel coils with a 1 inch cushioned foam layer
    • Low profile so it's better for bunkbeds.
    • It's affordable.

    What we don't like:

    • It's a lot more firm than the other two.
    • It's only 6 inches thick.

    What kind of mattress should I get?

    There are three different kinds of mattresses and each has their pros and cons.

    Memory Foam mattress

    Memory foam mattresses are usually the most comfortable, and least firm mattress. They are also usually more expensive than the other styles.

    Hybrid mattress

    A hybrid mattress combines both memory foam and innersprings. They are still a lot more firmer than a full memory foam mattress, but they are also more affordable.

    Innerspring mattress

    The third and final mattress is usually the most affordable option, but it's also the firmest mattress. While still comfortable, the other two styles provide more comfort and support.

    How to protect a mattress?

    If you do decide to invest in a Tuft & Needle mattress, you should make sure to also get a waterproof mattress protector. This protects it especially during the potty training years.
