Our Review Methodology

How we build comprehensive assessments of products and their value

Thorough Research

We extensively analyze data, consumer feedback, and reader needs to identify the best products for your sleep journey.

Comprehensive Evaluation

We assess products using multiple sources: our experience, independent reviews, customer feedback, and verified information from across the internet.

Editorial Integrity

Our content remains completely independent and unbiased, free from sponsor influence or hidden agendas.

Building Trust Through Transparency

We understand that trust must be built, and generating dependable content lies at the heart of our purpose. For this reason, we would like to transparently reveal the process behind WantMattress and its content creation, along with how we incorporate references to verified products and services.

Locating sleep and wellness information is a breeze, as it's readily available everywhere. However, discovering reliable, pertinent, and practical information can be challenging and even daunting.

WantMattress aims to change that. We produce top-notch, research-backed, and easily comprehensible sleep content, empowering you to make optimal choices for yourself and your loved ones.

Moreover, we are dedicated to assisting you in taking steps towards maintaining a better quality of sleep. At times, this involves directing you to products and services that we believe can be valuable resources on your journey to better health.

Let us explain our selection process.

1 We Do The Research

Our editorial team devotes extensive time to scrutinizing data and reviewing reader input and consumer feedback in order to comprehend our readers' needs, be it an ideal mattress for restful sleep, the perfect bed frame for a particularly modern bedroom, or essential equipment to combat snoring. Subsequently, our writers and editors embark on a thorough investigation of the finest choices, taking into account factors such as:

  • Price
  • Quality and Build
  • Availability
  • Consumer Feedback
  • Our Experience

How We Build Our Assessments: While we do physically test many products when possible, we don't always test every product we review. Instead, we build comprehensive assessments by drawing on:

  • Our Experience: Years of expertise in the sleep industry and hands-on knowledge of similar products
  • Independent Reviews: Analysis of trusted third-party reviews and expert opinions from across the industry
  • Customer Reviews: Aggregated feedback from real users to understand how products perform in real-world conditions
  • Verified Information: Research from reputable sources across the internet, including manufacturer specifications, industry reports, and verified testing data

This multi-source approach allows us to provide well-rounded assessments of product value, comfort, and suitability-even when we haven't physically tested a specific item ourselves. Our goal is to craft content that maintains a fair and unbiased perspective, explicitly highlighting the advantages and drawbacks of the featured products.

2 We Verify and Cross-Reference

Each product and brand we feature undergoes careful evaluation by our team. We cross-reference information from multiple sources, verify claims against available data, and assess each item based on our criteria to ensure it aligns with sleep standards and our philosophy of well-being.

When we haven't physically tested a product, we're transparent about our assessment methodology. We look for patterns across independent reviews, analyze customer feedback for consistency, compare specifications with similar products we have tested, and draw on our industry knowledge to provide an informed perspective on value and performance.

Our expert-backed team does the groundwork, so you don't have to. This way, you can feel confident in making informed decisions regarding your health and sleep journey.

3 At The Forefront of Integrity

We implement a stringent advertising policy that guarantees our content remains uninfluenced by sponsors and business collaborators.

Rest assured that when you encounter a shopping link within our content, it has our full endorsement. We exclusively provide links to products, services, and resources that we believe offer value to our readers.

If you make a purchase on the retailer's website after following one of our links, we may obtain a minor portion of the revenue generated by your transaction. You can read more about this here.

When entering into a direct business partnership with a brand or retailer, our team carefully assesses those partners. This ensures that WantMattress only collaborates with organizations that:

  • Maintain transparency with customers concerning product safety, quality, and effectiveness
  • Adhere to all British Standards Product Conformity
  • Meet the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 (GPSR)

Why Our Process Matters

Transparency in our review process isn't just about building trust-it's about ensuring you receive reliable, actionable information that helps you make the best decisions for your sleep health. We believe in being honest about our methodology: when we've physically tested a product, we'll say so. When we're building an assessment from experience, independent reviews, and customer feedback, we're transparent about that too. This honesty means you can trust that our recommendations come from thorough research and genuine expertise, not hidden incentives or shortcuts.
