Nectar and Layla are two of America's best-selling box mattress brands, renowned for their quick, convenient delivery and budget-friendly product range. To help you choose between the two brands, I'm setting Nectar vs Layla head to head. For the sake of a fair fight, I'm picking a similar mattress from each store: the Nectar Premier Hybrid Mattress and the Layla Hybrid Mattress.

Saatva and Nectar are two of the biggest names in sleep. Where Saatva is an old-school mattress brand, offering complimentary white glove delivery on their innerspring, memory foam, hybrid, and latex models, Nectar is new-age: their mattresses arrive vacuum-packed and sealed in cardboard boxes, straight to your front door. I decided to pit Saatva vs Nectar head to head. For the sake of a fair fight, I wanted to choose a similar mattress from each store.

The best organic bedding is better for your body and for the environment. When you opt for organic cotton, bamboo, or latex over polyester and microfiber, you're choosing to protect your skin and the planet from cheap, synthetic strands. Admittedly, organic bedding is often more expensive, but you get what you pay for. Natural fibers are more breathable, durable, and sustainable: ideal for hot sleepers and eco-conscious shoppers alike.

Sometimes, when I read back over my old articles, it's like I'm speaking another language. If you've ever tried shopping for bedding, whether in-store or online, you'll remember reading about baffle-box constructions, fill power and thread count. That's before we get to the acronyms: GSM, GOTS, et cetera. So, to break down the bedding buzzwords, I've compiled a glossary of all the terminology I use on a daily basis, arranged A to Z for ease of access.

As the resident Sleep Editor, I'm often asked how we test comforters: how I choose which products to call in for review; who does the testing; and exactly what we're looking for. Here's how we test at Homes & Gardens. First, I browse all the best places to buy bedding, including Brooklinen, Woolroom, and Boll & Branch, to choose the comforters I want to test. Then, I match each comforter to a member of my expert testing team.

As the resident Sleep Editor at Homes & Gardens, I like to get my eight hours − and then some. Waking up early mid-week means I look forward to my weekends, when I get to switch off my alarm and snooze a little longer. Ironically, for someone who teaches others how to sleep better, I've been accused of 'bed rotting'. I prefer to think of it as 'snerdling'.

There are so many reasons why you might be struggling to sleep. Perhaps you suffer from night sweats or hot flashes and you can't seem to regulate your temperature enough to drop off. Maybe your bedroom backs onto a busy road, where the noises of the night keep you awake, or your window faces east, so you get a full face of sunlight in the mornings. The good news is that you don't have to suffer in silence.
