I totally disagree. We bought a Helix with coils and are returning it and replacing it with a new Casper all Latex/foam. We found that the hybrid had very little support on the edges and we are edge sleepers.
Which kind of mattress is better is an opinion and we all have our own
I’m in the 120 day window of “sleep trial “ on a hybrid and began the return process today! While the center is quite comfortable, the sides are just completely unsupported and the feeling is one of sliding off the bed. We had a Casper, which after 8 years had to be replaced - we have ordered a new one from them today - we think we prefer a full Laytex to the hybrid variety
Tried a bunch of mattress-in-a-box brands and the only one that actually held up past 90 days was Helix Midnight. No sagging, no heat trap, support stayed consistent, and edge/motion control didn’t fade.
Casper softened fast, Purple got weird pressure points, and T&N original was the only foam option that didn’t crater by month 3.
If you want something that still feels good after the honeymoon phase, I'd say Helix was the only one that didn’t disappoint.
If you did ok with Leesa that long, why not another? The same company (3Z’s) who makes Leesa also makes Brooklyn Bedding (my favorite), Helix (also great but pricey), Nolah (best value and still quite good), Bear, and some others.
I liked the Leesa Legend Chill, but really disliked their other beds. It felt cheaper than other lines they make. The Brooklyn Bedding Thermo Balance Elite was my favorite bed I tried, and what I bought. I’m extremely happy with it. Helix Midnight Elite was my second favorite, but pricier. Saatva RX was quite good, but even more expensive than Helix. Nolah Evolution was the best quality low cost option I tried ($1450 for a king), but I was willing to pay more for their highest quality offerings. Casper was ok for all foam, and exceeded my expectations at a solid price point. I hated nectar, because I could feel springs on the side and any partner movement. Purple will either be loved or hated, but feels weird to me. Simmons Beauty Rest had a lot of great options, but was pricey, though I preferred this to newer and in some cases more expensive Sealy models under the same umbrella. Tempurpedic was what I had before Brooklyn Bedding, and I think they are excellent, but they’re very expensive and not necessarily better at double the price.
It’s all foam and I haven’t had it for very long yet so we’ll see about longevity. It’s not a very firm mattress for me but I’m pretty big at 225lbs. It has a zone comfort where it’s supposed to be firmer around the top and bottom of the bed and lighter around the center so your hips and backside don’t get contorted as you sleep. This is the only bed I’ve found comfortable enough to sleep on my back.
Think i've had 10, yes 10 different mattresses since living here for the past 8 years. What I figured out is that all of the "solid foam" style mattresses here are horrific, the ones that feel good at first will kill your back in a matter of 2-3 months as the foam wears out around the middle of the bed where your hips sit. I ended up getting an inner spring mattress at JYSK, for half off during black friday and havent slept this good in years. Its been 6 months now and no issues. I tried tempurpedic, casper, ikea (3 different), bett1, and 3 different ones from a local mattress place.

Since moving from the US to Switzerland I have not slept good, have had mattresses from Tempur, Casper, IKEA, 100% latex ones, tempur was the worst out of them all but doesn’t seem to matter I always wake up with back pain after like 4/5 hours of sleep. Any recommendations for a mattress this side of the pond? Am a back sleeper, about 180lbs and would need something that isn’t hot.
