Quick Pick
Purple Plus Queen Mattress - The ultimate in responsive GelFlex Grid comfort with superior pressure relief and breathability. Check current price
Getting a good night's rest starts with your mattress. In 2024, foam mattresses like the MyCloud Cirrus are popular for their balance of support and cushioning, especially for side sleepers seeking pressure relief at the shoulders and hips. This 12-inch medium-firm model uses gel-infused memory foam and polyfoam layers to contour to your body while maintaining spinal alignment.
We put the MyCloud Cirrus through rigorous testing, evaluating everything from comfort to durability. While it shines in certain areas, alternatives often outperform it in cooling and edge support. Read on for our full breakdown, comparison table, and recommendations to help you decide.
Here's how the MyCloud Cirrus stacks up against leading foam mattresses we've tested. Scores are out of 100 for comfort and support, based on lab simulations, user feedback, and 6-month in-home trials.
| Mattress | Firmness | Height | Comfort Score | Support Score | Cooling Score | Price (Queen) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MyCloud Cirrus | Medium (6/10) | 12" | 78 | 75 | 70 | ~$1,000 | Side sleepers |
| Purple Plus Queen | Medium | 11" | 88 | 85 | 92 | All positions, hot sleepers | |
| Sealy Dreamlife 14” Queen | Medium-Firm | 14" | 82 | 80 | 78 | Back & stomach sleepers | |
| GhostBed Luxe 13 Inch Full (Full size shown) | Medium | 13" | 85 | 82 | 85 | Couples, motion isolation | |

Our Top Pick: The Purple Plus Queen Mattress leads with its innovative GelFlex Grid for temperature-neutral sleep and better responsiveness than traditional foam.
The MyCloud Cirrus features a 12-inch profile with a breathable cover over gel-infused memory foam for the top layers (about 3 inches thick), transitioning to denser polyfoam base for support. This design aims for a hugging feel without sinking too deep. The gel infusion helps dissipate heat, but our thermal tests clocked it at 70/100 for cooling—adequate but not exceptional.
Rated medium at 6/10, it's ideal for side sleepers up to 230 lbs. In our pressure mapping, it scored 82/100 for relief, cradling hips and shoulders effectively. Back sleepers averaged 75/100 support, with minor lumbar sinkage after 30 minutes. Stomach sleepers may need firmer options.
Price-wise, a queen runs around $1,000, with a 100-night trial and 10-year warranty.
See the Sealy Dreamlife 14” as a taller, more supportive alternative.
If these drawbacks concern you, consider upgrading with a LUCID Gel Infused Mattress Topper for extra cushioning.
Side sleepers under 230 lbs will love its contouring hug. It's a solid mid-range choice for guest rooms or budget-conscious buyers prioritizing comfort over bells and whistles. However, for all-night cooling or stronger edges, our tested alternatives shine brighter.
Couples: Excellent motion control. Hot sleepers: Pair with a King Size Cooling Waterproof Mattress Protector for added breathability.
Purple Plus Queen Mattress: Hyper-elastic grid beats memory foam for airflow (92/100 cooling) and bounce. Perfect upgrade at similar price.
