LuxeBreeze® Medium Hybrid

Hello since you work at Mattess firm, how long does it take for a mattress to break in?? I got the tempupedic luxe breeze medium hybrid. I’ve had it almost a month. Side sleeper and sometimes I feel great and sleep awesome and other times I get out of bed and back is killing me. You already know what I spent for this, how can I get better sleep?? Really thought this would be the end all but man it’s been rough at times. About 5’11” around 250 for reference. Any suggestions? Will it loosen up more? Thanks

Get the luxe breeze firm. I am at 185lbs. Low back issues. Used the medium hybrid and in 2 occasions due to bumps on the side of the mattress, I had to file warranty claims, and both got approved. I would feel hips sinking in the middle of the night and woke up with constant low back pain. Switched for the firm and yes , the first month it will be firm but at your weight , it should get better. The firm keeps my back properly aligned and no more pain. Sleeping perfect now.

Yes. You read that well. After reading a lot about it, the firm on the luxe breeze is considered a medium firm, not precisely a firm after is broken down 6-7. If you go to a store. Lay down on the luxe breeze firm and you will notice is not as scary as the word firm. Now if you get a pro adapt, the medium would be better because the firm on the pro adapt is a solid rock. Maybe for people weighing more than 230 The medium hybrid luxe breeze is not as supportive as they make you think. Again, I am 185 and felt my hips sinking and low back pain every single morning.

We recently bought an expensive mattress, I think it's called a tempurpedic hybrid firm luxe breeze? Something like that, long name. Anyway, it and the adjustable frame, have me sleeping better than I ever have. I'm sure there are better models, and I'm sure there are less expensive, but this one seemed right for us. Never had spent more than $500 or so on a mattress prior to this.

Tempur pedic beds are horrible and I feel like the sales people love selling these beds because of the commission. I have owned the luxeadapt hybrid, probreeze medium non hybrid and luxebreeze hybrid. I hated them all. Not only do they all get hot after 2 hrs but these beds are horrible for sex and back support. I am a back and side sleeper and I really tried to love these mattress but I ended up hating all of them. I sold my luxebreeze and bought a Casper Snowmax and I love it! Its soft with excellent support. Its not initially cold like a Tempurpedic but it stays cool through the night. I just hope the Casper last lol. My girlfriend loves the mattress also when we do adult activities.

Hi all, I bought a LuxeAdapt Queen in like 2020. A couple years into it, I want to say late 2022 maybe, the back pain was so bad. And VERY long story short, I was actually able to return the mattress under warranty. The LuxeAdapt ran very hot and I hated that too, but it was the back pain that did me in. So when I got approved for my warranty, I paid (after taxes and shipping) another $1,600+ to move 'up' to the LuxeBreeze Queen. Soft. Soft because it was HARD. And the firm was insanely hard. I want my lower back not to suffer, but I also didn't want to sleep on a rock. Well, you guessed, the LuxeBreeze sags at my hips and my back pain is UNBEARABLE. No hyperbole. I could barely walk for a few days the past couple weeks. Per various posts I've seen, I've taken to shoving pillows and things under the weak areas of the sagging mattress. That sort of helps if you get it right- kind of sort of but not really (I would happily accept anyone's 'formula' for doing this successfully if you've been in the same situation). So I have now submitted another warranty request. I'm praying it goes through. But even then, am I gonna be back in this situation again in two years? This has become stupid. I think the LuxeBreeze might be the only tolerable line for me because these mattresses are SO damn hot for me-- and even the LuxeBreeze gets way too hot for me. But it's more tolerable than the heat of the (otherwise WAY more comortable) LuxeAdapt-- when it's new. Between the adjustable base and upgrading to the LuzeBreeze, this bed is close to a $7,000 investment. That has caused me significant pain. I'm so mad. But also, I am not in any kind of financial situation to buy a new mattress of any variety. So IF I get this warranty approved... do I just suck it up and try to go with... I guess the LuxeBreeze firm? Or maybe the LuxeAdapt firm and get another Ooler-like cooling pad (I had one and it broke down-- I must have bad bed karma)? I've also read that the ProAdapt Firm is the firmest of all of TP's mattresses and I might do well with that. Minus the heat situation. So I'd have to get a cooling pad of some variety. Anyone familiar with that one? For information, I'm a pretty athletic guy at 6'1", a very muscular 210. I lift weight, do yoga, swim, hike. I guess I'm a kind of bigger guy, technically, but big as in muscular. This seems stupid to me that I'm being put through this. For this massive amount of money, no less. I've read some people in my situation ask the delivery guys to leave the new TP mattress that comes via warranty in the box/plastic/whatever. They then sell it. And then buy something else entirely. I'm skeptical I could get anything close to the mattress's true value selling it online. Seems like I'd have to time it perfectly-- sell it and get the new mattress that day. TL;DR, Here's the point. Here on my second Tempur pedic mattress that is throttling my lower back, could I do better with yet a THIRD different TP mattress type? Anyone else been through this? ANY AND ALL INSIGHT from those who have been through this is wildly appreciated. Thanks.

I went into a Tempur-pedic flagship store today and laid on the LuxeBreeze Firm and the LuxeBreeze Medium Hybrid. I immediately liked how I felt on the hybrid. Immediately. I wanted to go to sleep. BUT I could. feel a little twinge in my (admittedly already sore from my TP at home) lower back. I laid on the firm for over 5 minutes and didn't have that relaxed feeling but had no pain or 'twinge' of any kind in my back. I'm a little torn. Also, I didn't find the firm to be as "rock-like" as many of told me to expect it to be. I just feel like the guys above who said the foam is cheaper than it used to be and it breaks down more than it used to are likely right (they sure in the case of my first two beds). And I might do well to try something actually different. Anyway, thanks for weighing in, you guys. I do appreciate it.

Well, I'm VERY happy to report, after A LOT was asked of me for this warranty (additional video, photos, etc.) that my warranty request was approved. I think I'm going to take your advice (and u/BridgesAreBurning) because you're both retailers. So you must know more than the average user. And you both suggest the LuxeBreeze Medium Hybrid. I was really vascillating between the hybrid and the firm. I thought about the ProAdapt for extra firmness, but these beds are SO hot for me, even the LuxeBreeze is warm for me. I will say that u/Best_Recover4037 above made some good points and it sounds like we're in VERY similar situations and body types. With similar pains caused by hip sinking in TP mattresses (I'm a big muscular guy at 6'1 and 210 and a side sleeper). So I'm nervous moving onto my third TP mattress. But I went into a TP flagship store and honestly loved the way the hybrid felt. I wanted to go to sleep immediately. And you guys are the pros. So... again, THANK YOU for the expert advice. And thank you to everyone, even if I took different advice.than the advice you offered. Here's hoping the third time's a charm...Appreciate you guys.

So far so good! I mean, my first two Tempur mattresses took a couple years to become pain machines. But this 'break-in' period has been slower and less dramatic in terms of where the break-in ends up. I'm actually loving it so far. And I'm hoping it just doesn't 'break-in' any further from where it is. There's give, but it's still relatively firm in the best way. If the bed were to stay this way, it's kind of my dream bed I think. That said I'm single, so I guess I can switch sides and break the other side in if I need to. Haha. You looking for a mattress? As much as I'm having a "third time's a charm," if it were me, it wouldn't go TP again. They run hot. They break down. And even when you manage to get the mattress replaced under warranty (as I have done twice), you STILL pay... I forget how much it was... I think like $275 or something insane… for the "white glove" delivery of the damn thing. That's you getting it "free." So I've spent, what? More than $500 replacing two mattresses that caused me months of agony just to get back to NOT having my $6,000+ bed investment make me rue life? I've heard great things about Sleep Number...

So you got TWO medium hybrid mattresses and had to return them both? Did I understand that correctly? Sounds like you and I are in very similar situations. This is actually really helpful. I LIKED the LuxeBreeze until I woke up in pain. I think I just need it to break down less. Logically, it seems like the firm would be the way to go.

Thanks for the feedback. But if you look through this thread, you'll see some real hybrid detractors. And I've heard that elsewhere too-- that the hybrid coils break down even more readily than the foam. I'm starting to think the LuxeBreeze Firm is gonna be the thing. I am a side sleeper, but it just seems like a matter of the breaking-in period. And then hopefully after that, it takes much more to make the firm sink the the point my soft LuxeBreeze has done? I don't know.

Oh, okay. I have a waterproof one I use (because of using the Ooler cooling bed pad), but I'm surprised it's such a common thing. I've heard many TP owners say they don't like using anything except the cover it comes with because it defeats the 'feel' of the memory foam as well as the cooling (in the case of the LuxeBreeze which is what I have). My LuxeBreeze gets hot after about 20 minutes anyway and the waterproof protector I use actually helps mitigate the heat a lot. But I digress. Anyway, thanks for getting back.

I'm a side sleeper so the zero gravity position just doesn't work for me for sleep. I have REALLY tried. I can even knock myself out with high doses of melatonin, but then-- and I'm not kidding-- from the zero gravity position, I somehow find the bed remote on the night stand in my sleep and lower the bed to flat. I wake up in a flat position not knowing how i got there. Sleeping on my side.

I'm a side sleeper. But I'm hearing a whole lot of negative reviews from people about the hybrids breaking down quickly and also causing a lot of pain. See the post in this thread from the 110 person and her story about this very thing. There are enough stories like this that give me pause. I'm not sure. This may all be moot as I still have to see if TP even approves my second warranty claim. And I hope they approve it for the CURRENT price of the same model not the price from several years ago. Anyone know about that? I guess I'll find out.

You're the third retailer (so, an expert) here recommending the luxebreeze medium hybrid. So that's what I've decided to do. Thanks for taking the time!

I think I've earned the same the opinion of Tempur pedic. Sadly. Going through this stupid warranty process now. They want more pix, more blablabla. I'm thinking "Your bed is literally injuring me. REPLACE THIS." But I smile and comply. So that I can get... I think I'm gonna try the luxebreeze hybrid. And I just got a replacement Ooler mattress pad cooler. Thank GOD. The only way i survived the Tempur pedics. Cheers on the happier, sexier bed. Hope it holds up for you. Random aside, if your screenname is meaningful, I'm a composer too. Nice to connect.
