Which should you buy? Here's the honest call, pulled from our full The Best Mattresses in a Box: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) comparison.

The Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid is the pick if you want to choose your own firmness - and side sleepers on a tight budget can consider the Nectar with eyes open.
