Feel & Firmness
- Firmness Level: Rated around 6 – 6.5 / 10 (“medium-firm”)
- Feel Description: The mattress offers a responsive hybrid feel - you’ll note a Euro-top pillow layer that gives a degree of cushioning, but underneath the coil and foam system delivers firm lift and strong pushback. You feel on top of the mattress more than in it.
- Our Take: If you’re after a "sweet spot" mattress that doesn’t feel too soft but still offers enough comfort for night-long comfort, the Luxury Firm hits it. For side sleepers wanting extra softness or stomach sleepers needing greater support you’ll likely want to compare alternatives in-store.
Construction & Materials
Height: Approximately 14″ (typical build for the Luxury Firm version).
Design: Hybrid build with pillow-top, zoned support coils, and quality foams.
Layer Breakdown:
-
Cover: Breathable TENCEL®/eucalyptus-derived knit cover offering a soft touch and better air flow.
- Pillow-Top Layer: A Euro pillow-top of premium foam that provides initial surface softness and comfort.
-
Comfort/Transition Foams: Multiple foam layers designed to contour enough to relieve pressure yet maintain support for your shoulders and hips.
-
Support Core: Individually wrapped steel coils with zoned design (firmer in lumbar region) to promote spinal alignment and reduce sagging.
- Base/Foundation Layer: High‐density foam under the coils for stability and long-term durability
Why It Matters: The hybrid construction ensures you get the best of both worlds - some cushioning to avoid feeling like you’re sleeping on a board - and enough structure to avoid excessive sink or loss of alignment. This is especially helpful for couples and heavier sleepers who need support plus comfort.
Performance Breakdown
| Category | Our Rating | Summary |
| Pressure Relief | 7 / 10 | Good performance, particularly for back sleepers. Some side sleepers may desire more contouring at shoulders/hips. |
| Cooling | 7.5 / 10 | Above average. The breathable cover + coil base help keep airflow up, though not ultra-cool compared to premium cooling models. |
| Support | 8.5 / 10 | Strong suit. The zoned coil core and lift make this mattress very capable of maintaining alignment and resisting sag. |
| Motion Isolation | 7 / 10 | Decent for a hybrid. Movement is reasonably contained, but you will feel a little more bounce than dense foam alternatives. |
| Edge Support | 8 / 10 | Very good. Independent testing showed minimal edge compression and strong perimeter support. |
| Ease of Movement | 8 / 10 | Responsive and fairly easy to move around on - good for combination sleepers or those who change positions frequently. |
Sleeping Position Guide
-
Side Sleepers: Good, especially for average‐weight side sleepers who prefer more support than deep contouring. If you have broad shoulders or need extra softness, consider testing a plush alternative.
-
Back Sleepers: Excellent. The support core and comfort layers combine to give solid alignment with just enough cushion.
-
Stomach Sleepers: Very good. The firmer feel helps keep hips from sagging. If you’re a very light stomach sleeper, make sure the surface feels comfortable for you.
-
Combination Sleepers: Strong choice. The mattress’s responsiveness and moderate cushioning make it easier to shift positions without feeling “stuck.”

- Since the height is around 14", check whether your fitted sheets, bed frame, or adjustable base accommodate the depth.
