When choosing your next mattress, you'll probably come across a lot of industry jargon, and decoding it can be a job in itself. One term you've probably seen is 'pillow-top' along with 'euro-top' and 'tight-top.' Now, it's not as confusing as it might seem. In fact, this just refers to how the top section of your mattress is made.
Many of our top picks in this year's best mattress guide for all sleepers have a pillow-top, especially some of the more high-end luxury picks. This is because a pillow-top adds extra pressure relief and comfort. However, they're not for everyone. Depending on your sleeping position and preferences, a pillow-top mattress might not be the best choice for you.
