Which material is appropriate for each context?
There are several materials that make up a mattress and its supporting structure. Depending on these, several aspects may change, such as price, durability, comfort at certain weights and others, which will be described below.
Viscoelastic mattresses
These mattresses offer high durability and good support, even if you tend to spend many hours in bed. They are ideal for people suffering from joint or muscle problems. It is not recommended for hot places due to its low breathability.
Spring mattresses
They are ideal for people who tend to move around a lot and for hot areas due to their high rate of breathability. They have high durability and their price tends to be a little higher than viscoelastic ones. It is recommended that they are pocket springs because otherwise they tend to be a bit noisy.
Latex mattresses
These are the most expensive on a regular basis, but offer advantages for asthmatics and those who move around a lot in their sleep. Their thicknesses are medium to low and their durability is very long. The cons are that they offer low breathability and are expensive compared to others.

What is ideal according to weight and height?
If you do not consider yourself a slim person, or you weigh more than 80 kg approximately, and you tend to move a lot, you will need a firm mattress that supports your body well and does not generate a valley effect on the mattress.
On the other hand, thin people tend to require softer and more flexible mattresses that better distribute their weight.
