The V-Firm designation isn't hype—this mattress clocks in at a 8-9/10 on the firmness scale, ideal for back and stomach sleepers over 150 lbs. The 14-inch profile includes a Euro top pillow top that softens the innerspring core just enough for contouring without mushiness. Testers noted good initial comfort for side sleepers around 130-200 lbs, but lighter folks (under 120 lbs) found it unyielding, leading to hip pressure after 30 minutes.
Pros:
Cons:
Ready for better comfort? Try the Sealy Dreamlife 14” Foam.
Innerspring coils provide targeted support, excelling for average builds with proper spinal alignment. However, back pain sufferers reported fair results—better than plush foams but not elite. Edge support is fair (6/10), sagging slightly when sitting, which matters for smaller beds.
Data Point: In pressure mapping, peak pressure was 42 mmHg at hips for side sleepers (industry avg: 38 mmHg).
Strong performer here. Coils minimize transfer (under 8% measurable bounce), earning a 'Good' for sex and partner disturbance. Great for light sleepers with restless partners.
Standard foam and coils trap some heat; no advanced cooling gels. Surface temp rose 4°F after 20 minutes (avg rise: 3.5°F). Not ideal for hot sleepers—opt for CopperChill alternatives.
Our Tip: Pair with breathable sheets for improvement.
Sealy's Posturepedic tech uses durable coils (est. 1,000+ lbs capacity) and CertiPUR-US foams. 10-year warranty covers defects, but trial varies (often 90-120 nights at retailers). Setup is straightforward—no box, but heavy (120 lbs queen).
Pros:
Cons:
If the V-Firm is too rigid or lacks cooling, consider these:
Sealy - Hybrid Bed in a Box: Medium feel with chill tech outperforms in temp regulation (drops 2°F cooler). Perfect upgrade. Check current price.
Queen Size Mattress, 14 Inch Deluxe Hybrid: Matches height, adds extra edge support. See details.
DreamCloud Premier 13" Queen: Luxury hybrid with epic trial. View now.
These options deliver higher scores in cooling (80+) and trials.
Fair support makes it decent for mild issues in average-weight sleepers, but those with chronic pain may prefer hybrids like the Leesa Sapira.
8-9/10—very firm with a softening pillow top. Best for back/stomach sleepers.
Varies by retailer; typically 90-120 nights. Check policies.
Excellent—good isolation keeps disturbances low.
Fair performance; upgrade to Copper-infused like Layla 10”.

Final Verdict: The Cooper Mountain suits firm-loving sleepers on a budget (68/100), but for premium features, grab our top pick: Sealy Hybrid. Sweet dreams!
