Latex Mattress Buyers Guide: Shop by Firmness
The right mattress firmness transforms your sleep. At Nature’s Embrace, we specialize in organic latex mattresses that are modular, customizable, and handcrafted locally in Vancouver. Whether you’re looking for a plush surface that relieves shoulder pressure, a balanced medium feel for all positions, or the solid lift of an extra-firm latex bed, our firmness guide makes it easy to find your perfect match. Every mattress is built with GOLS organic Dunlop latex, breathable cotton or wool covers, and our lifetime layer exchange program, so you can fine-tune your comfort over time.
Level 2
Plush
Plush mattresses offer gentle cradling comfort that lightly conforms to your body. They relieve pressure points while maintaining a soft, welcoming surface that feels cozy without being overly sink-in. A great choice for lighter side sleepers or those who enjoy a cushioned feel while still benefiting from natural mattress support.
Level 3
Medium
A medium mattress balances softness and responsiveness for versatile comfort. It contours enough to ease pressure points while maintaining support for proper spinal alignment. This firmness is a popular choice for side sleepers, combination sleepers, and anyone looking for a softer mattress feel without sacrificing support.
Level 4
Medium
Slightly firmer than plush but still forgiving, a medium mattress at this level provides reliable support with noticeable cushioning. It adapts well to a variety of sleep positions, offering comfort for side sleepers as well as combination sleepers who switch between back and side. Ideal for those seeking an all-around comfortable mattress.
Level 5
Medium-Firm
A medium-firm mattress strikes the perfect balance between comfort and support. It provides enough cushioning to reduce pressure on shoulders and hips while maintaining proper spinal alignment. Best for side and back sleepers — and especially well-suited for couples with different comfort preferences.
Level 6
Medium-Firm
This slightly firmer option emphasizes stability and support while still offering moderate contouring. Back sleepers benefit from the stronger lift, while side sleepers who prefer a firmer feel will find it supportive without being rigid. A great compromise for those who want comfort with a touch more firmness.
Level 7
Firm
Firm mattresses deliver noticeably strong support with minimal sink, keeping the spine aligned and the body lifted on the surface. This firmness is ideal for back sleepers who need extra stability for proper posture throughout the night. It’s also a reliable option for sleepers who find softer mattresses unsupportive.
Level 8
Firm
With dense, stable support and only a slight cushion, this firmness level is designed for stomach sleepers who require a flat, supportive surface to avoid lower back strain. It also suits those who enjoy the feel of a mattress that prioritizes stability and resilience over softness.
Level 9
Extra-Firm
An extra-firm mattress offers a solid, no-nonsense sleeping surface with strong pushback and minimal contouring. It promotes proper posture for individuals who require maximum support, often recommended for those with orthopedic needs. This firmness level is perfect for sleepers who prefer the most supportive and structured mattress possible.
Firm
Futons
Futon mattresses are firm but not hard and can often double as both seating and sleeping solutions. Whether made from layers of cotton, wool, latex, or in a traditional shikibuton style, futons provide a stable, breathable feel that promotes healthy posture. Ideal for back and combo sleepers, minimalists, or anyone seeking a versatile mattress that balances comfort with practical support.
