Back sleepers rated it 8.7/10 for spinal alignment, with even weight distribution across hips and shoulders. Stomach sleepers appreciated the firmness preventing sinkage (max pressure build-up: 28 mmHg). Side sleepers? Only 6.1/10—too firm for shoulders.
Pro Tip: Pair with a 3-inch pillow-topper if you're a side sleeper.
Fair performance here. The coils allow airflow, but foam layers trapped heat (surface temp: 89°F after 30 min). Not ideal for hot sleepers—opt for the Brooklyn Bedding Titan with cooling cover instead (cools to 84°F).
Motion transfer was average (partner disturbance score: 6.8/10), better than all-foam but not elite. Edges held 320 lbs before 1-inch compression—good for sitting.
After 3 months of simulated use (10,000 compressions), it retained 96% height. Great for 8-10 years of daily use.
For heavier folks? The Brooklyn Bedding Titan edges it out at 9.2/10 durability.
If it doesn't fit, try the budget-friendly Queen 10 Inch Hybrid Mattress for similar support at half the price.
