Our Verdict

Novosbed

Sleep On Latex Hybrid

The Sleep On Latex Hybrid is better than the Novosbed for most people. Both are best for back and stomach sleep, but the Sleep On Latex is more supportive for most people, so it'll better keep your spine aligned. It's also made of more durable materials and offers better motion isolation and cooling.
