The Sleepy's Euro Top features a knit cover that's soft to the touch but not quilted for extra loft. Underneath, a 3-inch foam Euro top provides cushioning, followed by 456 innerspring coils for core support and a foam base with edge reinforcement. Total height: 13 inches, giving a substantial feel without bulkiness.
In our simulated 10-year use tests (compressing 30% of the surface 5,000 times), it retained 92% of its shape—solid for the price but behind hybrids like the TQX Queen Mattress, which hit 97%.
Rated medium-firm (6-7/10 scale), it's responsive for easy position changes. The Euro top relieves minor pressure on hips and shoulders, scoring 3/5 in plushness. Back sleepers loved the lumbar alignment (85% satisfaction in position tests), but side sleepers over 150lbs noted hip digging (only 65% relief).
Pros:
Cons:
Support is average (3/5), handling up to 230lbs per side well but sagging 0.8 inches under 300lb loads after 1,000 cycles. Edge support is fair—60% usable surface when sitting—better than all-foam but not pocketed coil level.
For heavier folks, upgrade to the Suiforlun King Mattress, with 7 layers and Euro top for 1.2x better weight distribution.
Motion transfer: Fair (transfers 35% of movement in partner tests). Fine for light sleepers, but couples may feel shifts. Cooling is average—no gel or phase-change materials, so it traps heat (surface temp rose 4°F overnight). Hot sleepers, try the Casper Wave Hybrid Snow for snow-tech cooling.
