For back sleepers, it should be all points of contact. Your shoulders, torso, hips and legs should be touching the mattress. Get your friend to put their hand in between your lower back and the mattress. There is supposed to be no space between your lower back and the mattress.
Remember: No contact equals to no support

For side sleepers, there line from your neck to your tailbone has to be straight.
If there is a hump, it will be too firm and that will cause shoulder strain
If the line is going downwards, it will be too soft for you.

In Singapore, most mattress suppliers are selling the outdated Singapore size (Distance between your headboard to your legs are about 190 cm). And if you ask for the international size (200cm) it will be an additional charge of at least 25% because it is custom made.
The average height of a man in Singapore is 173cm. A mattress that is 190 cm long is not suitable because your legs will be sticking out of the mattress. With your legs sticking out, gravity will pull you down causing more lower back strain.
Who knew boogeyman is real, its real name is Gravity.
