At our Yawnder mattress showroom in San Diego, we carry both the Helix Midnight Luxe and Helix Dusk Luxe. They are the most popular models in the Helix lineup of mattresses and while both feel great, they do have some significant differences that will factor into your decision.
Who is the Helix Dusk Luxe Best For?
Individuals or couples who tend to sleep on their backs or stomachs and prefer a medium mattress with extra support and premium upgrades
Who is the Helix Midnight Luxe Best for?
Individuals or couples who tend to sleep on their sides and prefer a medium mattress with extra support and premium upgrades – our most popular Luxe model
What is the Key Difference between the Dusk Luxe and the Midnight Luxe?
These mattresses have basically identical construction. The key differentiator is the comfort layer. The Dusk Luxe has, “Helix Dynamic Foam” while the Midnight Luxe has, “high-density Memory Plus Foam.” Basically, that means that the Midnight Luxe has denser foam at the top which will provide a little more pressure relief but also recovery a bit more slowly. Most people have a hard time telling the two apart. You need to spend some time on the two so that you can appreciate the subtle differences.

My Helix Midnight and Dusk Luxe Recommendations
Helix is by far one of the most popular mattresses in our San Diego showroom. Of the two models we have on display, the Midnight Luxe edges out the Dusk Luxe in terms of popularity. While the Dusk is marketing to be a more versatile mattress for all types of sleepers, I would say that the Midnight Luxe is better with pressure relief and so will help you stay asleep a bit longer.
Here’s a view of the Helix Midnight Lux and how much it sinks with my 16 lb. bowling ball.
Here’s another pick with the same ball on the Dusk Luxe.
My Helix Recommendation
The Helix brand is quickly becoming one of the most popular and highly reviewed online mattress brands and for good reason. If the Helix Midnight or Helix Dusk Luxe just isn’t right for you, chances are one of their other models will be a great fit. If you are a heavy person, check out my Helix Plus review, it’s the best mattress for heavy people.Â
Finding a duvet that maintains a perfect temperature throughout the year can feel like an impossible task, especially for those living in colder climates. Many duvet inserts offer multiple layers for customization, but if you share your bed, your ideal temperature might not align with your partner’s. This is where the Apollo Duvet from Ministry of Supply steps in. Founded in 2012 by two MIT graduates, Ministry of Supply aims to blend science with comfort in both clothing and textiles. Their Apollo Duvet promises not just comfort but also the ability to customize temperature for each side of the bed—making it a game-changer in the world of bedding.
Unboxing the Apollo Duvet
I was fortunate enough to receive a queen-size Apollo Duvet from Ministry of Supply for review. It arrived in a surprisingly compact box, accompanied by a reusable storage bag, which is perfect for future use. The thoughtfulness in the packaging design stood out instantly. Shipping was quite efficient, taking about a week from order to delivery. One of the notable features of this duvet insert is its 100-day trial period, allowing you to test its comfort risk-free. If you’re not satisfied, you can return it for store credit instead of a cash refund; while I’d prefer a full refund option, there are plenty of appealing items in their store that might catch your eye.
Unique Construction Features of the Apollo Duvet
What distinguishes the Apollo Duvet from other options on the market is its incorporation of Phase Change Material (PCM)—a technology used in advanced mattresses for temperature regulation. This special material helps the duvet feel cool to the touch, drawing out heat to keep you comfortable while you sleep. Although the duvet eventually reaches a saturation point where it can no longer cool down, this innovative feature should help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
Here’s a breakdown of the Apollo Duvet’s construction, based on information from their website:
– NASA-derived temperature regulating Phase Change Material
– Dual-layer modular insulation system that allows for varied weight preferences
– Tonal snaps enable easy alignment
– Made from hypoallergenic materials
– Includes a storage bag (note: duvet cover is not included)
– Duvet weight: 6 lbs 1 oz; extra panels weigh 3 lbs 2 oz each
– 200 GSM duvet plus two additional 150 GSM panels
– Shell fabrics: 55% TENCEL™ Lyocell, 45% Cotton
– Fill materials: 70% Recycled Polyester (GRS), 30% Outlast PCM Viscose
– Produced by Staroon Textile Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang, CN)
– Dimensions: 90” x 92” (extra panels are 45” x 92”)
– Fits both Queen and Full-sized beds; extra panels can serve as individual Twin-sized duvets
My Experience with the Apollo Duvet
Upon taking the duvet out of its packaging, I discovered it was meticulously rolled, making it challenging to return to the bag later. One pleasant surprise was a diagram illustrating the duvet’s functionality—something I haven’t seen with other products. This duvet is especially well-suited for guests, allowing them to adjust the bedding to their preferred thickness and temperature, no matter their thermostat settings or floor within the house.
Once unrolled, two distinct sides of the duvet were evident, which is quite beneficial for individual temperature preferences. Given the initial setup, I’d recommend starting with both layers attached for optimal warmth. It’s also advisable to use a duvet cover to keep it clean—while machine-washable, washing an insert is often a hassle.
The perimeter of the duvet features snap buttons, while the inner attachments use a different type of button that is less noticeable while sleeping. Although this makes connection a bit more cumbersome, their practical design ensures each side remains securely in place. The detail and quality of construction are evident in these buttons, which have a sleek matte finish.
Minor details, such as the care tag stitched onto all four sides, contribute to the overall aesthetic. I find this thoughtful touch immensely helpful, as it prevents that annoying tag from sticking out.
Final Thoughts on the Ministry of Supply Apollo Duvet
In summary, the Apollo Duvet serves as a versatile bedding option, functioning as both a summer and winter duvet. Why invest in two separate duvets when you can enjoy all these benefits in one? The Phase Change Material enhances sleep quality significantly, addressing a common issue faced by many: maintaining an ideal temperature throughout the night. If you’re searching for an innovative solution that combines quality and functionality, the Apollo Duvet from Ministry of Supply is undoubtedly worth considering. Just wish it were available in king size!

Helix as a brand has been around for over 6 years and has grown dramatically. They make their mattress in Phoenix Arizona ships fast. Most orders I have placed arrive in about a week, maximum 2 weeks. Despite midnight lux being a thick, hybrid mattress with springs and foam, it still ships compressed in a box which is delivered by FedEx or UPS. Compressing it in a box does not take away from its quality or feel. It’s just a much more conveninet method of shipping mattresses these days.Â
Here’s a short video showing the unboxing process. This mattress is basically ready to sleep on after you open the box. Normally you should wait about 5-8 hours for the mattress to fully expand but the Helix has a special type of foam that acts more like latex and springs to life almost instantly.Â

This mattress features multiple comfort layers that are thoughfully put together to create a true medium feel.Â
The cover is made with TENCEL fabric which is more breathable than cotton or if you sleep extra hot, you can add the GlacioTex Cooling Cover which has a phase change material making the mattress cool to the touch. This will help you cool down and relax faster when you go to bed.Â
The first comfort layer is the Memory Plus Foam layer. It’s a high density foam with a medium feel for great pressure relief.Â
The second comfort layer is a Gel Visco foam design to support and cushion your body. It’s made with a medium IFD for a consistent firmness.Â
There is a High-Grade Polyfoam layer that is used as a transition between the foam layers and the base coil system.Â
The Helix Midnight Luxe is made with 1,000+ wrapped coils that are zoned out across the mattress to give you more support at your hips and better pressure relief at your shoulders. These coils will help balance your body evenly across the mattress.Â
The bottom layer is made with DuraDense Foam to provide a base support and durability.Â
My Helix Midnight Luxe Review
As a predominantly side sleeper myself, the Helix Midnight Luxe is my favorite among the Helix mattress models. It is a soft mattress that provides just the right amount of support for side sleepers but will still work great for back sleepers. This Helix Midnight Luxe is a good choice for couples that want the targeted support that only coils can provide will eliminating most of the motion transfer due to the quality layers of foam at the top of the mattress.Â
This mattress is made in the USA out of their Arizona factory. Shipping is usually about 5 business days and in some cases less if you live in California or Arizona.Â
Since their inception, Helix has prided itself on customization and acknowledges that one size does not fit all. They made the Midnight Luxe specifically for side sleepers with shoulder and/or hip pain that want great support but don’t want to be woken up by their partner in the middle of the night.Â
If there are any cons for the Helix Midnight Luxe, it is that if you sit at the edge of the mattress, you won’t get great support. That’s because of the softer layers of foam at the top. There are firm coils along the perimeter of the mattress for good support but comments I get from customers is that the side can sag a bit if you sit on it. That said, you will be spending the majority of your time sleeping on the mattress and this in my opinion is a worhty trade off.Â
Considering the amount of foam on the top of the mattress, I expected it to sleep warmer than it actually did. The ability to keep me cool is in part due to the Tencel cover but also the quality of foam below it. This foam sort of acts like latex in that it bounces back quickly and doesn’t leave impressions. Not only will this make it sleep cooler but it’s easy to switch positions and get in and out of the mattress.Â
One drawback to the Helix Midnight Luxe is the lack of edge support. Although it has a zone coil system with firmer coils along the edge, the multiple layers of foam above the coil system are fairly soft and won’t be as supportive however it will offer better edge support that any memory foam mattress out there.Â
Since this mattress is one of the softer offerings from Helix, Stomach sleepers should instead consider the Helix Dusk Luxe.Â
I also give Helix overall high marks for customer service. They have grown exponentially as a company and they may not be able to answer calls as quickly as some of the other companies but when I chat or send emails, I get quick responses.Â
My Helix Midnight Luxe Recommendation
I have the Helix Midnight Luxe available to try in my Yawnder mattress stores and what suprises me is that the customers specifically looking to try this mattress end up buying it. The same goes with the Helix Dusk Luxe which we also have on display. This tells me that Helix is doing it’s job in marketing the mattress by accurately setting expectations of what the mattress feels like and how it will perform. While you will pay a little more for this mattress, it is well worth the investment. Not only are you getting a superior product but you just can’t beat the feel. I highly reommend this mattress for side sleepers and combo sleepers. If you want a firm mattress, look elsewhere but if you want one that can be soft, supportive and easy to move around on, look no further.Â
If you are looking for an all-natural option, consider the Birch mattress, it is also made by Helix and the Birch Luxe is their softer offering which is similar in firmness to the Helix Midnight Luxe but since it is latex, it can’t offer as good of pressure relief. In a comparison of Awara vs. Helix the Helix wins hands down.Â
Looking for even more pressure relief and comfort? Upgrade to the new Helix Midnight Elite that incorporates more foam and coils. You actually get 2 layers of microcoils and the mattress arrives in 2 boxes due to its size.Â
Treat yourself to 5 individual foam layers, combining to provide a medium feel while cradling your hips and shoulders in side sleeping positions. 
Whether or not the Helix Midnight Luxe is worth it depends on your personal preferences and needs. Here are some factors to consider:
Comfort: The Helix Midnight Luxe is designed to provide pressure relief and support for different sleeping positions. If you are a side sleeper, you may find that the plush top layer of the mattress helps alleviate pressure on your hips and shoulders. However, if you prefer a firmer feel, this may not be the best option for you.
Cooling: The Helix Midnight Luxe features a layer of gel-infused foam that helps dissipate heat and keep you cool throughout the night. If you tend to sleep hot, this feature may be worth it for you.
Motion transfer: The individually wrapped coils and foam layers of the Helix Midnight Luxe work together to reduce motion transfer, which means you are less likely to be disturbed by your partner’s movements during the night. If you share your bed with a partner, this could be a valuable feature.
Price: The Helix Midnight Luxe is more expensive than some other mattresses on the market, so you’ll need to decide whether the features and benefits it offers are worth the investment.
Overall, if you’re looking for a hybrid mattress that provides pressure relief, cooling, and motion isolation, the Helix Midnight Luxe could be worth it for you. However, if you prefer a firmer mattress or are on a tight budget, you may want to consider other options.
Where Can You Buy the Helix Midnight Luxe?
The Helix Midnight Luxe mattress is available for purchase on the Helix Sleep website, as well as local stores including ours and on our website.
If you decide to purchase the Helix Midnight Luxe from the Helix Sleep website, you can take advantage of their sleep quiz, which will help you determine which Helix mattress is the best fit for your sleeping preferences and needs. Additionally, purchasing directly from Helix Sleep allows you to take advantage of their 100-night sleep trial, which gives you the option to return the mattress for a full refund if you’re not satisfied with it.
If you choose to purchase the Helix Midnight Luxe from another retailer, be sure to check their return policy and any additional fees or restrictions that may apply. It’s always a good idea to do your research and compare prices before making a purchase to ensure you’re getting the best deal possible.
Helix Midnight Luxe vs. Puffy Luxe
The Puffy Luxe and Helix Midnight Luxe are both high-quality hybrid mattresses that feature a combination of foam layers and individually wrapped coils. However, there are some differences between the two that may be worth considering when making your decision.
Comfort: Both mattresses are designed to provide pressure relief and support for different sleeping positions. The Puffy Luxe has a plush top layer that provides a soft, cushiony feel, while the Helix Midnight Luxe has a slightly firmer feel with a plush pillow top layer. This means that the Puffy Luxe may be a better option for those who prefer a softer feel, while the Helix Midnight Luxe may be a better option for those who prefer a slightly firmer feel.
Cooling: Both mattresses feature cooling technology to help regulate temperature and keep you comfortable throughout the night. The Puffy Luxe uses a gel-infused foam layer, while the Helix Midnight Luxe uses a gel-infused memory foam layer. Both are designed to dissipate heat and prevent overheating, so it really comes down to personal preference.
Motion transfer: Both mattresses have been designed to reduce motion transfer, which means that you are less likely to be disturbed by your partner’s movements during the night. However, the Helix Midnight Luxe is better at isolating motion, which may make it a better option for couples who are sensitive to motion transfer.
Price: The Puffy Luxe is generally more expensive than the Helix Midnight Luxe, so if budget is a concern, the Helix Midnight Luxe may be the better option.
Ultimately, both mattresses are high-quality options that provide excellent support and comfort. The main differences between the two are the firmness level and price, so it really comes down to personal preference and budget.
Biggest Cons and Complaints for the Helix Midnight Luxe
While the Helix Midnight Luxe is a popular hybrid mattress that receives many positive reviews, there are some complaints that some customers have reported. Here are some of the common complaints:
Firmness: While the Helix Midnight Luxe is designed to provide a balance of comfort and support, some customers have found it to be too firm for their liking. This is especially true for those who prefer a softer feel or who are side sleepers.
Off-gassing: Like many mattresses that are made with foam materials, some customers have reported a temporary odor after unboxing their Helix Midnight Luxe mattress. However, most customers report that the odor dissipates within a few hours to a few days.
Price: The Helix Midnight Luxe is more expensive than some other mattresses on the market, which can be a concern for budget-conscious shoppers.
Edge support: While the Helix Midnight Luxe has good overall support, some customers have reported that the edge support is not as strong as they would like. This can be a concern for those who prefer to sit on the edge of the bed or who share the bed with a partner.
Customer service: While most customers report positive experiences with Helix Sleep’s customer service, some have reported difficulty with the returns or exchange process.
Is the Helix Mattress Compatible with an Adjustable Base?
Yes, the Helix Midnight Luxe is compatible with adjustable bed bases. In fact, using an adjustable base can enhance the comfort and support of the mattress, allowing you to customize your sleeping position for optimal relaxation and pain relief.
The Helix Midnight Luxe is designed with flexible foam and coils that can adapt to the contours of an adjustable base. It is also equipped with a sturdy edge support system that ensures the mattress stays in place when adjusted.
Keep in mind that not all adjustable bases are created equal, and some may have different weight or height restrictions. Before purchasing an adjustable base, make sure to check the manufacturer’s specifications to ensure it is compatible with your Helix Midnight Luxe mattress.
Best Adjustable Base for the Helix mattress
Helix Sleep offers its own adjustable base, called the Helix Adjustable Base, which is designed to work seamlessly with all of its mattresses, including the Helix Midnight Luxe. The Helix Adjustable Base has a variety of features, including:
Wireless remote: The base comes with a wireless remote control that allows you to adjust the head and foot positions independently or together.
Zero-gravity position: The base offers a zero-gravity position, which elevates your feet and head to promote circulation and reduce pressure on your back.
Under-bed lighting: The base has under-bed lighting that can be controlled from the remote or a smartphone app.
USB ports: The base has built-in USB ports that allow you to charge your devices while you sleep.
However, if you prefer a different brand of adjustable base, you can also use it with your Helix Midnight Luxe mattress as long as it meets the following requirements:
Weight capacity: The adjustable base should be able to support the weight of the mattress and the sleeper(s).
Size compatibility: The base should be the correct size to fit your Helix Midnight Luxe mattress.
Adjustable head and foot positions: The base should be able to adjust the head and foot positions to enhance the comfort and support of the mattress.

CBD is exploding in popularity and we are just beginning to learn about its benefits. It seems every week a new CBD oil company pops up online and so there’s no shortage of choices for oils and balms. But sometimes you want an even more passive approach to CBD. Recently I reviewed the CBD Pillow which is a pillow that has CBD infused into the cover. The CBD Blanket by Curfew is similar in that you don’t need to ingest anything, you simply put the blanket on and start reaping the benefits.
Overview of the Curfew Dream Blanket
Right now the Dream Blanket retails for $295 but you also get the Dream Salve which is 500mg of broad-spectrum CBD that normally retails for $75 on its own. For this review, I received all of these for free plus the Evening Tincture which is also 500mg of broad-spectrum CBD and also retails for $75.
Your blanket and salve will arrive in a box like this.
I was really impressed with the packaging and care they put into it. It would make a great gift for someone going through a stressful time.
Curfew Blanket Specifications
Here are the specifications of the blanket as listed on their website.
Care Instructions: Machine Wash Cold, Line Dry Only, Do Not Place in Dryer
How Does Curfew Dream Blanket Work?
This blanket works just like any other blanket you just put it over your body and relax! I would say that the blanket is on the thinner side and that was probably intentional because you want to be able to use the blanket even if you aren’t that cold so you can get the CBD benefits. You can always put another layer on top of it.
Here’s a picture of the blanket and products outside of the box.
The Dream Blanket works by coming into contact with your skin, so it’s best used with a short sleeve shirt to maximize contact. The blanket is infused with micro-encapsulated beads that are released with friction and then go into your skin. The Curfew website explains how it works as follows:
CBD is infused into the Dream Blanket fibers using micro-encapsulation technology. Tiny droplets of CBD are wrapped in a protective coating. This patented technology protects the CBD droplets from evaporation, oxidation and contamination.
The micro-encapsulated CBD is then bonded to yarn, which is then knit into the Dream Blanket. The friction that is created when using the blanket will break the walls of the CBD capsule where it is released onto your skin.
This blankets is supposed to last 20 wash cycles, or an estimated 2 years if you follow the wash instructions which ask you to machine wash on cold and air dry, do not place in the dryer.
My Curfew Dream Blanket Findings and Recommendation
I was pleasantly surprised to find that this blanket did not reek of CBD. I appreciate that there was no overwhelming smell and it’s nice to know that it is washable.
Here’s a video of me with the Dream Blanket
In conclusion, I recommend a CBD blanket for people that are averse to taking tinctures or pills and still want to experience the benefits of CBD with milder effects. If you consistently use CBD and happen to use blankets often, then this will actually end up saving you money in the long run.

Ananda is a company that offers a complete sleep solution. They offer a memory foam mattress with cooling cover and an adjustable base with all the popular features for an extremely competitive price. A queen size Ananda mattress and adjustable base retails for $1,299. Both the base and mattress come shipped to your door in a box and both come with a 120 night trial with free returns.
Overview of the Ananda Mattress
Here’s a quick video overview of the entire sleep system which again includes the adjustable bed and mattress.
Â
As you can see below the adjustable bed and mattress both come in a box and are shipped straight to your door. No need to schedule a delivery.
I first setup the adjustable bed which is very straightforward. The queen size basically comes folded in half.
All you need to do is unfold the base and all the parts can be found there.
The first step is to screw in the legs and take out all the other pieces including the remote.
Â
Each leg has 3 individual pieces that can be screwed on top of each other. This allows you to adjust the height of the bed so that it fits in your existing bed frame.
Â
Here’s a closeup of where to screw in the legs.
Â
Once all size legs are screwed in you can then make sure the wiring is connected for power and then flip the bed over to plug it in.
The remove comes synced with the bed so you can start using it right away.
Here’s what it looks like all setup. There is a bar at the foot of the bed to keep the mattress from sliding off.
You get 3 options to operate the Adjustable Base: Backlit Wireless Remote Control (Included), “Ananda Base Wifi” Remote Control App for Phones or Mobile Devices (Alexa, Siri, Google), or Voice-activated commands through the Amazon Alexa App and Device (not included). This means you can ask Alexa to raise or lower your bed without having to use your remote!
After you get the base setup its time to get out the mattress. It comes wrapped in a box.
Here’s what it looks like right out of the box.
Here’s a picture of the mattress just a few minutes after opening. As you can see it is already fully expanded.
How Much Does the Ananda Mattress Cost?
Below are the prices of the Ananda Sleep System as of this writing. Remember, you get both the mattress and adjustable bed so this is a really good deal.
[table id=57 /]
Construction of the Ananda Mattress
Below are the construction details of the mattress. It is an all foam mattress that is 12 inches deep.
My Ananda Sleep Findings
Starting out with the mattress, it is promoted as a medium firmness which I would say is accurate. Maybe just slightly softer than most all foam mattresses labeled medium firm. Here’s a picture that illustrates how much sinkage you get with my 14 lb. bowling ball.
Here’s another look at sinkage with the cover off.
It has a zippered cover which is machine washable although I always recommend a mattress protector as sometimes these covers can be hard to get back on.
Here’s a video illustrating motion transfer on the mattress.
Â
Here’s a look at the inside of the mattress so you can get a better sense of how the layers work and how it will feel.
Â
My Ananda Recommendation
For the money, it’s really hard to beat all that you get with this mattress. If you are already in the market for an adjustable bed, this price alone for the adjustable is a great value. When you add in the mattress it makes it an even harder deal to resist. I think the mattress will appeal to most sleepers and all sleep styles. It is made with quality foam that doesn’t sleep hot and recovers relatively quickly. Since you get a 120 night trial on both the mattress and adjustable it is definitely worth trying. If you aren’t happy with either you can return them but if for instance, the mattress isn’t ideal, it would make a great guest room mattress and you can put your existing mattress on the adjustable.

Futon vs. Sofa Bed: Which One is the Better Choice?
When it comes to furnishing your living space, the choice between a futon and a sofa bed can be a challenging one. Both options offer unique advantages and can serve as multifunctional pieces, perfect for small apartments or guest rooms. However, understanding their differences is crucial in making an informed decision that suits your lifestyle and needs.
Understanding Futons
Futons, traditionally seen in Japanese homes, are versatile and space-efficient. They typically consist of a mattress that can be laid directly on the floor or on a folding frame that elevates it. This design allows them to serve as both a bed and seating area, making them ideal for limited space.
Pros of Futons
1. Compact: Futons take up less space and can easily be converted from a sofa to a bed.
2. Easy to Store: Most futons can be easily folded and stored away when not in use.
3. Budget-Friendly: Generally, futons are more affordable compared to sofa beds, making them a great option for budget-conscious consumers.
Cons of Futons
1. Comfort Level: Many futons may not provide the same level of comfort as traditional mattresses, potentially leading to discomfort for prolonged use.
2. Support: The frame may not provide the same level of lumbar support that a quality mattress can offer.
Exploring Sofa Beds
Sofa beds, also known as sleeper sofas, are designed specifically for dual-purpose functionality. They usually feature a hidden mattress that folds out for sleeping, offering a more substantial sleeping surface compared to a futon.
Pros of Sofa Beds
1. Comfort: Many sofa beds come equipped with high-density foam or innerspring mattresses, providing better support for sleeping.
2. Design Variety: Sofa beds are available in various styles and designs to match your existing decor.
3. Durability: High-quality sofa beds are built to last and offer longevity, making them a worthwhile investment.
Cons of Sofa Beds
1. Bulkiness: Sofa beds are often bulkier than futons, which may limit the space you have available.
2. Cost: They tend to be more expensive than futons due to the added complexity of the mechanism and mattress.
Futon vs. Sofa Bed: Key Comparisons
Comfort and Support
When considering comfort, sofa beds generally have the edge. They offer more substantial mattresses that cater to a variety of sleepers, from back to side. On the other hand, futons may feel firmer due to their thinner structure, which might lead to discomfort during extended use.
Space Efficiency
If space is a major concern, futons can be a more efficient solution. They are generally lighter and can be easily stored or moved. Sofa beds, while multifunctional, often require more square footage and can bulk up a room, making them less attractive for smaller living areas.
Cost Considerations
Budget plays a significant role in your choice between a futon and a sofa bed. Futons are typically less expensive and often more accessible for those looking to furnish a space on a tight budget. However, investing in a quality sofa bed can pay off in the long run due to extended durability and better comfort.
Conclusion: Making Your Choice
In weighing the options, it’s important to consider your lifestyle needs. If you frequently host guests and need a comfortable sleeping solution, a sofa bed may be your best bet. Conversely, if you have limited space or are on a budget, a futon could be the perfect solution for your needs.
Both options have their merits and can serve as valuable additions to your home. Ultimately, your decision should reflect not just your space constraints and budget but also your comfort preferences. Whether you lean towards the simplicity of a futon or the versatility of a sofa bed, ensuring it fits your living environment and your personal style will lead you to the better choice for your home.

Easy Ordering and Convenient Delivery
Purchasing the Nectar Premier Copper mattress online is seamless. Just a week after placing your order, the mattress arrives conveniently packaged in a box, allowing you to set it up with minimal hassle.

5. Shift-Resistant Lower Cover: This additional feature means you can rest easy knowing your mattress cover will stay in place, contributing to a peaceful night’s sleep.
Pricing and Value
While the Nectar Premier Copper mattress is priced at a premium compared to other models, the quality of materials and construction justifies the investment. Currently, promotional bundles include enticing extras, such as a free sheet set, two pillows, and a Google Nest Hub—all valued at around $498.
Experience and Observations
After sleeping on the Nectar Premier Copper for three weeks, my expectations were met with satisfactory results. While I anticipated a plush experience, the medium-firm design balanced comfort and support, making it suitable for various sleeping positions. Notably, there was a delightful cooling sensation from the ActiveCool technology upon first laying down, adding to the overall comfort.
Side sleepers will find adequate pressure relief without sinking too deeply, while back and stomach sleepers benefit from a supportive feel that encourages healthy spinal alignment.
Final Thoughts on the Nectar Premier Copper
The Nectar Premier Copper mattress exemplifies the brand’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Both the 365-night trial and the innovative Forever Warranty demonstrate their confidence in the product you’re investing in, allowing you to explore its benefits risk-free.

The tulo Mattress is a bed in a box offering from Mattress Firm. Tulo means “sleep” in the Chichewa language, a widely known language in the country of Malawi. It’s a catchy name that is easy to remember. The tulo comes in 3 different firmness options soft, medium and firm. For this review, I received a medium version. What really sets Tulo apart from the competition isn’t necessarily the construction of the mattress but the fact that you can try out the tulo at one of the thousands of Mattress Firm stores across the country.
Overview and Unboxing the tulo Mattress
Here’s a video overview of the mattress…
Â
A queen size Tulo retails for $650. It comes compressed and roll packed in a box like the one below. As you can see, this box was a little damaged but the mattress wasn’t.
When you open the box you get a nice greeting from tulo and a letter opener. Over the years I have developed a nice collection of these.
Here’s a picture of the mattress right out of the box. Once you cut the plastic it will start taking in air quickly.
One thing I noticed is that this mattress sprung into shape very quickly. I think that’s because it was manufactured recently. Mattresses that stay compressed in a box longer, take longer to recover but that wasn’t the case with the tulo.
Construction of the tulo Mattress
10″ Depth
Shipping weight:
Twin: 50 lbs. Twin XL 52 lbs. Full 64 lbs. Queen 75 lbs. King 91 lbs. California King: 94 lbs.
Cover: knitted Polyester and Tencel blended fabric mated to a reinforced Polyester Elastan blended material for maximum durability.
Top Layer: 2” blend of titanium particles and high density Cool Flow ventilated memory foam. Material density is 3.25 lb/cubicfoot.
2nd Layer: “peak & valley” design, 1.5” responsive firm material with a density of 2.5 lb/cubic foot
3rd layer: 1.5” of strut reinforcing technology engineered into high resiliency firm foam to minimize material fatigue and reduce surface compression. Material density is 2.5 lb/cubic foot.
Foundation layer:Â high density poly urethane material designed to complement the technologies positioned above this layer. Material density is 1.8 lb/cubic foot.
My tulo Mattress Findings
This mattress skews a little towards the firmer end of the spectrum. I reviewed the medium firm and found it to be a little firm at first. However when you lay across it, you get great support and still get good pressure relief. This mattress is made in the USA and from what I can tell is top of the line foam. None of the corners are smushed together which means they didn’t over glue the pieces. It also was made recently and didn’t stay in a box for too long which also helps it take shape faster.
Here’s a picture of my bowling ball on the mattress to show you how much it sinks.
Here’s another video that illustrates motion transfer on the mattress.

Here’s a peek inside the mattress to show you how each layer reacts.

My tulo Recommendation
If you are new to the world of online mattresses, this is a great introduction. You can just head to your nearest Mattress Firm and try one out to see for yourself the value you can get with online brands. A queen size Tulo currently retails for $700 but now you can get one for $499.
Tempurpedic is arguably the most popular mattress brand in the United States and has the most name recognition. The name Tempurpedic and memory foam are almost synonymous. But lately, there has been an explosion of new online and store brands that aim to compete with Tempurpedic not only on price but also on feel. I have slept on hundreds of mattresses during my time as a mattress reviewer and I can get a good or bad impression of a mattress quickly, no pun intended.
In this review, I take a close look at the Tempflow brand and how it compares to Tempurpedic. I often don’t make many comparisons to Tempurpedic because it does have a unique feel, largely due to the quality. Both Tempurpedic and Tempflow offer different models and firmness levels for your sleep needs but where they seem to differ the most is price. Tempflow is on average at least a thousand dollars less than a Tempurpedic, all with a 120-night sleep trial and industry-leading, 40-year warranty.
Ordering the Tempurpedic vs. Tempflow
Both of these mattresses can be ordered online through their respective websites. They also are available to try in showrooms but Tempurpedic has the largest national footprint for showrooms. They can be demoed at any Mattress Firm location or other major sleep retailers. Tempflow has a showroom in Agoura Hills, CA, and may be available to try in other showrooms soon. Tempflow lists which of their models are comparable to the Tempurpedic mattresses on their website so you can try a Tempurpedic locally and order a comparable Tempflow online and take advantage of their 120-day trial.
How Much Does the Tempflow Cost in Comparison to Tempurpedic Models?
On average you will be paying considerably less for a Tempflow than a Tempurpedic. For example, the Tempflow Cloud is currently selling for $1,319 with a discount while the compatible Tempurpedic Cloud is selling for $1,399 after a discount. You really notice the savings though when you compare the higher-end models. For example, the Tempflow-Glacier Elite sells for $2,999 after discount while the comparable Tempur-Pro Breeze retails for $4,099 after discount.
In terms of the trial period, Tempflow is a 120-day trial while the Tempurpedic is 90 days, so you basically get an extra month to try out the Tempflow.
As for warranty, Tempflow is offering a 40-year warranty while Tempurpedic has a 10-year warranty.
Construction of the Tempflow and Tempurpedic Mattresses
Below are the construction details listed on the Tempflow website.

4

My Tempurpedic vs Tempflow Findings
I was invited out to the Tempflow store to try out their mattress and they also had a comparable Tempurpedic so it was a perfect opportunity to see how they compare.
Â
What sets Tempflow apart from all the other brands I have tried is that they have a patented cooling system where they create channels in the memory foam for heat to dissipate. This method in my opinion is superior to any phase change cooling technology because I find that the phase change cooling material only has a temporary effect and lasts for about 20 minutes or so before the mattress starts to heat up.
This is illustrated in the picture below.

Its very soft and quick reacting surface works rapidly in any environment to provide you with optimal pressure point reduction for the joints, while still supporting the back with its resilient lower layers.
This hybrid mattress is perfect for those who want something between a memory foam and inner-spring design. You will still get a soft surface, but the Flex-Comfort layer makes this model more buoyant and therefore, perfect for those who do not like an overly plush mattress.
With the most use of the stiffer/firmer HD Biogreen in the surface layers, greater depth of body penetration will occur, while still providing optimal support. This allows this mattress reduce pressure for the shoulders and hips, while suiting heavier individuals, back sleepers, and most back pain sufferers.
The soft over thicker and firmer HD Biogreen surface gives a dimension of comfort, with the most optimal support. The stiffer base will work well for heavier individuals, back sleepers, and most back pain sufferers.
My Recommendation for a Tempflow vs. Tempurpedic.
Both the Tempflow and Tempurpedic are very high-quality mattresses. They use dense foam which means that it will contour better and last longer. With Tempurpedic being a household name, and a pioneer in the memory foam mattress category, they will always command a higher price point. Tempurpedic can be hard to beat on feel. Just keep in mind that in my opinion, Tempurpedic does skew a bit firmer than other mattresses on the market so even their, “soft” model may feel more like a medium.
I am a big fan of the Ventilated and Kool-Flow technology in the Tempflow mattresses and over the course of the night, it does a better job of dissipating heat than just about all other memory foam mattresses I have tried.
Given the Tempflow is on average less than comparable Tempurpedic models, and they have a generous 120 night trial period, I would be inclined to give the Tempflow a try if you are looking for a high-quality mattress with an industry-leading warranty and great customer service.

Pressure Relieving Visco-Elastic Memory Foam

Supportive Base Foam with Adaptive Cut-out Technology
The firm bottom layer provides the necessary counter pressure whatever your sleeping position. Here we have added our innovative German Cut-out Technology which helps to align your spine giving you a healthier night’s sleep. This technology gives you support in your lower back and shoulder areas while also helping the Emma Mattress to adapt to you.
My Emma Mattress Findings
As you can see in the picture below the Emma mattress sinks quite a bit. It is even more pronounced as you add more weight. This makes it an ideal mattress for people that like to sink in the mattress and get maximum pressure relief.
The video below illustrates motion transfer. Since it’s an all foam mattress, motion is contained. What I found interesting is that the top layer is very resilient and recovers almost instantly. This gives the mattress just a little bit of bounce.
The cover is made for optimal airflow. It is a zippered cover so is removable as well. There is venting along the side so air can dissipate from the top and sides. The cover also grips the mattress better than other covers I have tried. This gives it a solid feel. It also has handles form making it easier to rotate and transport the mattress.
Here’s how each layer of the mattress looks.
Here you can see more of the inside of the mattress and where the holes in the base layer are placed to provide better contouring for your shoulders.
This video shows how each layer reacts. The top layer sinks and recovers quickly while the transition layer provides the support and pressure relief.
The cover has handles stitched into the sides to make rotating and transporting easier.

My Emma Mattress Recommendation
Emma offers three different types of mattresses – the Emma Original, the Emma Hybrid, and the Emma Original Foam. Here is a breakdown of which mattress may be best for each sleeping position:
Back sleepers: Back sleepers generally require a mattress that offers both support and comfort. The Emma Original and the Emma Hybrid mattresses are both good options for back sleepers. The Emma Original mattress offers a balanced medium-firm feel that supports the spine, while the Emma Hybrid offers additional support with pocket springs.
Side sleepers: Side sleepers generally require a mattress that offers pressure relief and support for the shoulders and hips. The Emma Original and the Emma Hybrid mattresses can both work well for side sleepers, but the Emma Original Foam mattress may be the best option due to its softer, more contouring foam layers that help relieve pressure points.
Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers generally require a mattress that offers firm support to prevent the hips from sinking too deeply into the mattress. The Emma Original and Emma Hybrid mattresses can both offer good support for stomach sleepers due to their firmer feel.
Combination sleepers: Combination sleepers who move between sleeping positions may require a mattress that offers both support and flexibility. The Emma Hybrid mattress is a good option for combination sleepers due to its combination of foam and pocket springs that offer support and pressure relief while allowing for ease of movement.
Overall, the best Emma mattress for you will depend on your individual preferences and needs. However, the Emma Original and Emma Hybrid mattresses are both versatile options that can work well for a variety of sleeping positions.
I really enjoyed the feel of this mattress. You get a somewhat soft mattress without all the drawbacks. You get to sink into the Emma but it doesn’t sleep nearly as hot as other soft mattresses. I think that’s in large part to the open cell foam layer at the top and the design of the cover. I recommend this mattress for side and back and occasional stomach sleepers that want a soft mattress where you sink into it just a bit.
I found it very easy to change positions on this mattress and when you do, the mattress recovers quickly so you aren’t left with impressions. This mattress comes with a 100 night trial and a 10 year guarantee. If you aren’t happy with it during the 100 nights, returns are free as well.
Emma Mattress vs. Nectar
The Emma mattress and the Nectar mattress are both popular foam mattresses that are available in several countries. Here is a comparison of each model of Emma mattress to each model of Nectar mattress:
Emma Original vs. Nectar Original: Both mattresses are made with memory foam and offer a medium-firm feel. The Emma Original has a more balanced feel with a top layer of breathable foam, while the Nectar Original has a thicker layer of memory foam and may feel slightly softer. Both mattresses offer good motion isolation and pressure relief, but the Emma Original may be a better option for those who sleep hot due to its breathable top layer.
Emma Hybrid vs. Nectar Lush: Both mattresses combine foam and pocket springs for a balance of support and pressure relief. The Emma Hybrid has a thinner layer of memory foam and a firmer feel, while the Nectar Lush has a thicker layer of memory foam and a slightly softer feel. The Emma Hybrid may be a better option for those who prefer a firmer mattress and want more support, while the Nectar Lush may be better for those who want a softer feel and more contouring.
Emma Original Foam vs. Nectar Memory Foam: Both mattresses are made entirely of foam and offer a soft, contouring feel. The Emma Original Foam has a slightly firmer feel than the Nectar Memory Foam and may offer better support for back sleepers. The Nectar Memory Foam has a thicker top layer of memory foam and may be a better option for side sleepers who need more pressure relief.
Overall, both Emma and Nectar offer high-quality foam mattresses that can provide good support and comfort for a variety of sleeping positions. The main differences between the two brands come down to the specific construction and feel of each mattress, so it’s important to choose the one that best suits your individual needs and preferences.

I received a queen size Joybed LX for review recently and was glad to finally be able to review a natural mattress made without latex. This is a great choice for people with latex sensitivities that are still looking for a natural mattress. The LX model is the firmest of their offerings followed by the LXC and LXP. Yet none of the models contain latex. Instead, they incorporate layers of wool, cotton and with the LXP, a layer of nano coils to build more cushioning. With a queen size starting at $965, this is a solid price for a natural mattress. Joybeds is a brand started by a mattress manufacturer out of Grand Rapids Michigan with over 100 years experience in the industry. What you get is a solid mattress with a unique construction.
Overview of the Joybed
You can order your Joybed directly from their website. It will ship quickly as it is made in the USA and comes with a 120-night trial which means free shipping to you and free returns if you decide you don’t like it within the trial period. The mattress will arrive via UPS to your doorstep in a box.
This mattress doesn’t have foam and so will be ready to sleep on just a few hours after opening. Here’s a quick video overview of the mattress.

How Much Does the Joybed Cost?
Below are the prices of the Joybed LX model as listed on their website.
Â
Construction of the Joybed
The Joybed LX and the other Joybed models have a fairly simple construction but they are layered in a way to provide good transitioning. Below are the construction details of the LX model as listed on their website.
Fabric Cover Organic Cotton
Inside Material Layers Plant Fiber Cotton Wool Cotton Padding
Innerspring Support Pocketed Coils with Active Edge Support
All the materials come from American suppliers. From the top down:
We start with a top layer of innovative plant fibers woven to provide fire protection, naturally. Without chemicals, potato and bean plants are woven into a layer creating a safe, fire resistant mattress. And because it’s plant based, it’s also breathable and adds to your sleeping comfort.
Next is a cotton layer we source from a southern, family owned American supplier. Cotton fibers are naturally soft and breathable, allowing air to circulate around your body. The fiber’s superior structure helps wick away and release body moisture as you sleep. Your sleep is improved in a dry and comfortable environment which helps you sleep better and wake more rejuvenated in the morning – a key to a healthier life! Cotton is naturally hypoallergenic keeping a clean and healthy sleeping environment without the use of chemicals. In fact, cotton farming is regulated by the USDA as a food crop, in addition to being annually renewable, recyclable and biodegradable. Cotton is also more durable than foam and will hold its loft longer than foam, which compresses faster than cotton over time.
Underneath the cotton is a layer of wool. Unlike synthetic fibers which are smooth, wool fibers have a textured surface that hold large amounts of air serving as a year round comfort layer keeping you cool and dry as you sleep. Wool helps regulate your sleeping temperature by keeping you cool when it’s hot and keeping you warm when it’s cold. Wool also helps wick moisture away as you sleep keeping you dry. When your body is able to sleep in a breathable bed that’s cool and dry, you’re able to sleep deeper, longer and awake feeling stronger and more alert. Wool’s fiber structure also has the added benefit of being naturally fire resistant. Learn More About Cotton & Wool.
We then put a second, generous layer of cotton.
All of these natural comfort materials are supported by individually pocketed coils that contour to your body and provide proper support. There’s also a double column of coils along the outer edges providing robust edge support so you can sit or rest comfortably all the way to the edge of the bed. They’re encased in a synthetic wrap, a rare use of man-made materials (less than .01% of the mattress by weight.) We even use a plant based glue to adhere certain materials in the spring system.The number of individually pocketed coils by size:
King 975
Cal King 958
Queen 789
Full 681
Twin 536
My Joybed Findings
Here’s what the mattress looks like right out of the box. It will come to shape almost instantly so you can sleep on it in just a few hours. Most foam mattresses take longer to come to shape. You can see in the picture below that it is not folded, just rolled. This eliminates the potential for any creases in the mattress.
Â
Here’s a photo illustrating how much the mattress sinks using my 14 lb. bowling ball. The LX model which I received is their firmest and they rate it a 3.5 out of 10 with 10 being the softest and I would say that’s an accurate assessment.
The video below illustrates motion transfer on the Joybed mattress. Although it has springs, the pocket coil system is designed to isolate motion. You will get a bit of motion transfer but not all that much.
Â
Here’s a look inside the Joybed LX where you can see the layers in more detail. The main comfort layers are cotton and wool with the springs providing support and contouring. Compared to a spring and latex mattress, this mattress doesn’t have as much bounce or sink to it.
Here’s a view showing edge support. This mattress was designed to have a double column of coils around the perimiter for better edge support. This way you get to maximise the sleeping area of the mattress. Many people I have spoken with prefer to sleep right up to the edge. And because there isn’t foam or latex to provide extra sinking, this is the ideal mattress for that.
My Joybed Recommendation
The Joybed is a great choice for people looking for a natural mattress without foam or latex. It’s hard to find this construction among the online brands but Joybed is now a great choice. If the firmness of the LX isn’t attractive to you, take a look at the LXC and LXP models. The LXC is a Vegan-Friendly mattress, made without wool but also softer giving you a medium firm feel. If you prefer plush, go with the LXP which adds in nano-coils to provide extra sink and contouring to mimick a latex feel.
No foam, latex, or chemicals. Handcrafted from the finest cotton, wool, and plant fibers, each natural material ensures you’ll get a better night’s sleep.
This adjustable base has wireless remotes, and it offers the added luxury of one-click Zero-G elevation for perfect pressure relief after a long day: lifetime warranty and 100-night trial.

UPDATE 2023
The sleep products you have in your bedroom define your sleep quality to a great level. You will never get the quality sleep you require in an uncomfortable bed. Unfortunately, bedding is an expensive deal making it an item that is not easily replaceable. Hence once you purchase a mattress or a bed base to go with it, you expect it to last for quite a few years.
Bed bases are an extremely important part of your bed products. It defines the base for your mattress. An ill-fitting and ill-structured bed base will not give adequate support to your mattress and ultimately to your body while you sleep. When you are looking into buying a bed base, there are lots of factors that you need to bear in mind.
An adjustable bed base is typically more expensive than the normal bed frames. However, they also come with added benefits and flexibility that more than makeup for the cost difference. This article will guide you through those points and help you in justifying the additional cost. Additionally, it will also take you through the ins and outs of the best adjustable bed frame, “Puffy Adjustable Base,” and let you decide why it might be the best choice for your bedroom.
What is an Adjustable Bed Base?
Before you start considering an adjustable bed base as your next bed product purchase, you should understand the concept of it. An adjustable bed frame is one that can be customized as per your preference. You can easily, with the touch of a simple button, “adjust” your mattress to achieve a comfortable sleeping position.
The adjustable bed base is made up of an assortment of joints that can be moved around to allow the base to freely take the level of position you want. This is what grants it the flexibility of different sleeping positions. Each of the joints in the bed base can be rotated to a certain degree, allowing you to get in that perfect position. Generally, you can lift the head and foot of the bed base from 40 degrees to 70 degrees.
Why use an Adjustable Bed Base?
When it comes to buying a product, you should always consider its value for money. This is as important if not more important than the cost of the product. Similarly, when you look at adjustable bed bases, you should be able to justify the higher cost of a traditional bed base. Some advantages of having an adjustable bed base as opposed to a normal bed base are as follows:
Breathing Conditions
Poor breathing patterns during sleep can cause a host of problems like sleep apnea, snoring, and asthma. An adjustable bed base can help you in this regard by elevating your head to the optimal height, which will release pressure from your windpipe, thereby allowing it to operate better. This also encourages increased and regular airflow into your system while you are lying down.
Relieves Insomnia
An adjustable bed base has plenty of sleep positions to choose from. This way, you can get into the most comfortable position aiding you to get a good night’s rest. You can hence say goodbye to the constant tossing and turning that comes with insomnia.
Helps with Swollen Legs
You can both prevent and relieve swollen legs elevating your feet. After a day on your feet, there is nothing more restful than putting your feet up. It allows you to elevate your feet to relieve the pressure from swelling as well as prevent swelling. You don’t have to worry about piling on cushions or pillows under your leg anymore.
Helps in Mobility
An adjustable bed base is a gift for those with mobility issues or those that require a little assistance getting in and out of bed, especially the elderly. With the mattress elevated, you can easily get out of bed without any help from others, making you more independent.
Improved Blood Circulation
Elevated bed positions help with better blood and oxygen circulation in the body. This is because the raised platform relieves pressure on your windpipe and heart, making the organs work more effectively. It also helps in balancing your blood pressure, which naturally drops during sleep.
Eases Joint Pressure
A normal traditional mattress is straight. These puts added pressure on the body joints. The additional pressure can induce conditions like arthritis or worsen the condition. An adjustable bed base allows you to relieve the pressure on the body joints. You can easily find the right spot of elevation that is most comfortable for your body. You can also raise and lower the foot of the bed in the mornings to relieve the arthritis pain.
Back Support
A straight mattress can be too hard on the back, especially for those with lower back problems. The adjustable bed base allows you the flexibility to adjust the mattress level to properly align with the spinal curve of your body, thereby giving your back the best support it can get.
Helps with Heartburn
Lying straight on a surface causes the stomach acids to move upwards along the esophagus. This results in heartburn. With an adjustable bed base, you can raise your head slightly to prevent the acids from traveling upwards, aiding in better digestion and a night of comfortable sound sleep.
Better Rest
Beds are not just for sleeping. They are used for lounging and just relaxing. Most people like to read or watch TV lying on the bed. However, finding that perfect position for lounging on a traditional setup is very difficult. With an adjustable bed base, you can easily raise or lower the head and foot of the bed to get cozy and comfortable.
What to Look for In Adjustable Bed Base?
The market is flooded with numerous adjustable bed bases. Each one claims to be better than the others. This can make it difficult to pick and choose the right one for you. It also makes it easy for you to be duped into buying a substandard bed base. It is hence useful to keep in mind certain factors while looking at different adjustable bed bases. These are:
Simple Head Up
These bed bases are very basic adjustable bed bases. It means that the bed base allows for only the top half adjustment. So, you can raise and lower the top half of the bed to find the right spot. The degree to which it can be raised depends on company to company.
Both Head and Foot
With a head and foot adjustable bed base, you can lift both the top half and the bottom half of the bed base. This makes for a full bed base adjustment. This is a preferred option for an adjustable bed base since it allows you full flexibility. You can lift the bottom half to prevent any leg swelling and relieve arthritis. The top half can be elevated to prevent acid reflux, increase mobility, and enhance lifestyle.
Remote Control
You can get both wired and wireless remote control to operate the bed base adjustment. It is always better to opt for a wireless remote control rather than a wired one since it is more convenient and also makes for better aesthetics.
Zero Gravity
The zero-gravity feature is an awesome feature to be on the lookout for in your bed base. This feature copies a zero-gravity mode by taking off the pressure from your legs and spine. In this, both the top and lower half of the bed is raised. Hence your legs will be at a higher level than your heart, and the upper body will be in a reclining pose. This position allows the body to relax naturally, with its weight evenly distributed on the surface.
Value for Money
Sometimes the most expensive or the least expensive is not necessarily the best choice. Do not be fooled by the price tag or the pretty colors. You must analyze the value for money that the bed base carries with it. This is the most appropriate benchmark for the quality and features of the bed base in question.
