Comfort and firmness: which mattress fits you
Why this matters to you: Feel names are the brand's words, not measurements. Use them to shortlist two or three beds, then let your body decide.
Choose Advanced Hybrid 9-inch if your child sleeps hot, moves a lot, or needs livelier coil support and you want the 9-inch height; choose Kids Sleep System 8-inch all-foam if you want the flagship low-profile bundle for bunk, trundle, platform or daybeds and easy washing after accidents. Both are Cushion Firm about 7/10 for ages 3-18, not adult primary beds; side/stomach details and weight limits Not published as of Sept 2026.

Which 5 Little Monkeys feel fits you?
Weight chart not yet researched
Weight and sleep position can change how a bed feels. We have not yet checked whether 5 Little Monkeys publishes a fit chart by body weight, so use a trial, where one is offered, to test the bed the way you sleep at home.
Neck: on your side, your nose should line up with the middle of your chest, not tip up or down.
Shoulders: your bottom shoulder should sink in. Tingling or a numb arm means the bed is too firm for you.
Lower back: on your back, slide a flat hand under your waist. A big gap means too firm; no room at all can mean too soft.
Hips: ask someone to look from the side. Hips lower than shoulders means the bed is too soft for you.

What do the warranties cover?
Why this matters to you: A warranty is only as good as its terms. Read the written terms and use a supported base, because the wrong frame can end coverage.
Covers mattress defects in materials and workmanship including severe body contours over 1.5 inches and foam splitting or cracking, plus workmanship and material defects for foundation, protector and sheets (1 year) and pillow (1 year); remedy repair or replacement at company choice with equal-or-better substitution if unavailable.
Requires claim form plus proof of purchase and law tags, photos if requested, and paid or arranged freight to Commerce, CA warehouse if asked. Excludes comfort feel, transport, unsanitary condition, improper use or care, cover fabric flaws, abuse, burns, cuts, tears, liquids, stains, tampering beyond ordinary wear, unauthorized-seller or used goods, and normal softening or wash wear.
Covered when the dip is deeper than Over 1.5 inches, measured with nobody on the bed.
Strip the bed down to the mattress and wait a few hours so the top layers can recover.
Lay a straight edge (a broom handle or long level) across the dip, resting on the flat parts.
Measure from the edge down to the deepest point, then photograph the ruler for your claim.
