Just ordered the CopperFlex Pro! Thanks for your reviews. Amazing! What pillows do you recommend?!
Just got the Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex hybrid pro. Last night was the first night. I had a hard time sleeping and it didn’t feel cool. Any recommendations? Is it normal for the first night
NapLab also recommended the Copperflex for me. I tried it for a few months and it is so so firm. It softened up a tiny amount over that time, but not much. I'm 5'7, 130 pounds and found it uncomfortable for side sleeping, causing a lot of pressure on my shoulders and hips. The lighter person might find this one unpleasant like I did. The cooling surface was quite nice though, but it's slippery and caused my sheets to move as I did. It's good quality for the price, but I ended up returning it. I'm on night 3 of the Boring Hybrid. This one is a little less firm IMO and I really struggled on the first night, but the second night was extremely comfortable. I slept like a rock. I may order their topper as this one also causes some pressure as well but not as much as the Copperflex.
Yes, you'll definitely want something firm if you are a strict stomach sleeper. Are you looking for a Queen-size mattress? If you want something super firm, I would take a look at the Plank Firm mattress. It's a bit out of your price range, but that's one my favorites I've tried for stomach sleeping. Inside your budget, you could also check out the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex mattress. It's from the same company as the Plank, but it's definitely more affordable, and I found it to be good for stomach sleeping when I tested it.
I got to test out the CopperFlex, and I would say it's too firm for your situation. As a side sleeper, you could feel some heavy pressure on your shoulders and hips. I agree with another commenter that the Siena mattresses are a good option, too. The Original 10" mattress was softer for me, and was nice for side sleeping. But, it's not so soft that I didn't get the support I needed.
Leesa Original's a good pick for shoulder pain and the all foam feel. If you want another option though, check out Brooklyn Bedding's CopperFlex. It's all foam too and usually cheaper than Leesa with that copper infusion for cooling. Either one's gonna be a huge upgrade from whatever's wrecking your shoulders every morning.
Nolah Original's decent but before you lock it in try check out Brooklyn Bedding's CopperFlex. Usually under $500 for a queen so you'd save a ton for other furniture. If you want legit cooling that's actually real their Aurora Luxe has the GlacioTex cover and it's still under your budget. Both are way better value than what you'd pay for Nolah.
Brooklyn bedding hybrid, I'm now a big fan of hybrid foam/spring mattresses for support and longevity (our previous memory foam mattress from Ikea now definitely has a person shaped hollow in it)
If you run hot, I’d check out Brooklyn Bedding or Plank before grabbing straight memory foam. BB hybrids move air way better so you’re not waking up sweaty. Plank helps too since you stay on top of the mattress instead of melting into it. Makes a big difference at like 3 AM when everything feels warm. I’d test a medium-firm hybrid at home and see if it keeps you dry.
For that budget Brooklyn Bedding or RV Mattress are better value than Nectar. Factory direct so you're not paying markup. Both have home trials. About the FB Marketplace ones, prob overstock but you're gambling w/ no warranty. Buying direct is safer.
I’d look at RV Mattress first since their stuff actually comes in those weird RV sizes and holds up better than the thin pads most rigs ship with. If you want something with more backbone, Brooklyn Bedding has some solid hybrids that last way longer for full time use. Just measure your frame and pick a height that won’t slam into your cabinets and you’re good.
