Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System Review
- 08/19/2024
Ben Trapskin
The Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System is a three-layer, all latex mattress system. For this review, I received a free plush version of the mattress since it can be hard to achieve a plush feel with an all latex mattress. I was excited to review this mattress because there aren’t as many all latex mattresses available online and this one comes in at a competitive price after discounts. Right now a queen size retails for $1,756 after the 20% off discount on their site. Although that’s considerably more than a typical foam mattress, you can expect a much longer lifespan and the peace of mind knowing you are sleeping on natural materials.
You also get a 100 night, risk-free trial where you can sleep on it in the comfort of your own home and if you aren’t happy with it during that time, it’s a free return. You also can do a free comfort exchange which means if you like the construction and feel of the mattress but it may be too soft or firm, Luma will exchange it for a better fit, for free. That’s still not very typical with an all latex mattress. You also get free white glove delivery which means it will be brought into your home and set up for free.
Overview of the Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System
Here’s an overview of the system and what you can expect upon opening and setup. Note that the pillow top will come in a separate box.
Construction of the Luma Mattress
The mattress with the pillow top measures 11 inches deep. The construction is as follows.
2 inch natural latex pillow top (option for Talalay latex for extra cost)
2 inch natural latex transition layer
6 inch zoned dunlop latex core
How Much Does the Luma Latex Slumber System Cost?
Below are the prices of the Luma Latex as of this writing. For an extra $60 you can have a Talalay latex pillow top instead of dunlop.

My Luma Latex Slumber SystemFindings
If you have never slept on latex, I would urge you to give it a try. Especially if you find memory foam too slow to recover. The reason latex is more expensive is that it takes more time to produce but you just can’t replicate the feel with memory foam or springs. Everyone is different when it comes to their preference for sleep materials but I have found most people will appreciate the feel of latex at the right firmness.
The plush model I tried contours well for side sleeping and will work well for back sleeping. Stomach sleepers may want to look at the medium for firm.
A latex mattress like this one isn’t going to have as good of edge support as a spring system because you really can’t zone out the edge to make it firm so if you like sleeping right up to the edge this may take some getting used to.
The reason this mattress is constructed to have a latex topper as the comfort layer is to reduce the impact of returns. If you find it too firm or soft, Luma can send out a firmer or softer topper to make it easier to adjust and lessen the environmental impact. It’s also much easier to exchange the topper rather than the whole mattress.
I found this mattress to be temperature neutral. It didn’t trap heat like a foam mattress. That’s largely because of the stretch knit cover and the latex underneath that has holes throughout that allow for airflow.
My Luma Mattress Recommendation
The Luma Latex Slumber System is a great introduction to latex mattresses. Especially when you consider the fact that you get a 100-night trial and the option for a comfort exchange if you like the overall feel but may want to tweak the firmness. Aside from latex being a renewable material, it’s also comfortable, offers great pressure relief and support and is resilient so changing positions at night is easy.
There is only one Luma mattress model, the Original Luma Mattress. It is a hybrid mattress that combines a layer of natural latex with a layer of pocket springs. The mattress is available in four sizes, and the prices are as follows:
| Size | Price |
|---|---|
| Twin XL | $795 |
| Full | $1,095 |
| Queen | $1,195 |
| King | $1,495 |
Luma offers a 100-night sleep trial, so you can try the mattress for 100 nights and return it for a full refund if you are not satisfied. Luma also offers free shipping and returns on all mattress orders.
Please note that these prices are subject to change.
The Luma mattress is a good all-latex mattress, but it is not the only option on the market. There are a number of other all-latex mattresses that offer similar features and benefits, but some may be better suited for your individual needs.
Here is a comparison of the Luma mattress to other popular all-latex mattresses:
| Mattress | Thickness | Price | Firmness options | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Luma | 11 inches | $795-$1,495 | Medium plush or firm | 15 years |
| Saatva Latex Hybrid | 11 inches | $1,399-$2,099 | Soft, medium, or firm | 15 years |
| Avocado Green | 11 inches | $1,199-$1,899 | Soft, medium, or firm | 25 years |
| Zenhaven | 10 inches | $1,450-$2,450 | Soft, medium, or firm | 20 years |
| PlushBeds | 10 inches | $1,199-$1,899 | Soft, medium, or firm | 25 years |
As you can see, the Luma mattress is on the more affordable end of the price spectrum for all-latex mattresses. It also has a good warranty, which is important to consider when making a significant investment in a new mattress.
However, the Luma mattress is only available in two firmness options, medium plush and firm. This may be limiting for some sleepers, who may prefer a softer or firmer mattress.
Other all-latex mattresses, such as the Saatva Latex Hybrid, Avocado Green, Zenhaven, and PlushBeds, offer a wider range of firmness options. This makes it easier to find a mattress that is perfectly suited to your individual needs.
Another factor to consider is the type of latex used in the mattress. The Luma mattress uses Talalay latex, which is a softer and more responsive type of latex. Talalay latex is also more expensive than Dunlop latex, which is used in some other all-latex mattresses.
If you are looking for a soft and responsive all-latex mattress, the Luma mattress is a good option. However, if you are looking for a wider range of firmness options or a more affordable mattress, you may want to consider other all-latex mattresses, such as the Saatva Latex Hybrid, Avocado Green, Zenhaven, or PlushBeds.
Ultimately, the best way to choose the right all-latex mattress for you is to read reviews and compare different models. You may also want to consider trying out different mattresses in person at a mattress store.
Luma Sleep vs. Posh + Lavish
Luma Sleep and Posh + Lavish are both luxury mattress brands that offer high-quality mattresses made from natural materials. However, there are some key differences between the two brands, and Luma Sleep is arguably the better choice for most people.
Here is a comparison of Luma Sleep and Posh + Lavish mattresses:
| Feature | Luma Sleep | Posh + Lavish |
|---|---|---|
| Materials | 100% natural Talalay latex | 100% natural latex |
| Construction | All-latex or hybrid latex | All-latex |
| Firmness options | Plush, medium firm, and firm | Medium firm |
| Price | $1,095-$2,495 | $2,599-$4,999 |
- More affordable than Posh + Lavish mattresses
- More firmness options to choose from
- Longer warranty (10 years vs. 5 years)
- Better customer service
Disadvantages of Luma Sleep mattresses:
- Not as well-known as Posh + Lavish
- Fewer stores where you can buy them in person
Advantages of Posh + Lavish mattresses:
- More prestigious brand
- More stores where you can buy them in person
Disadvantages of Posh + Lavish mattresses:
- More expensive than Luma Sleep mattresses
- Fewer firmness options to choose from
- Shorter warranty (5 years vs. 10 years)
- Poorer customer service
Overall, Luma Sleep is the better choice for most people because it offers more affordable, durable, and high-quality mattresses than Posh + Lavish.
Here are some additional reasons why Luma Sleep is better:
- Luma Sleep mattresses are made from 100% natural Talalay latex, which is the highest quality latex available. Posh + Lavish mattresses are also made from 100% natural latex, but some people believe that Talalay latex is more durable and supportive.
- Luma Sleep mattresses come in three firmness options: plush, medium firm, and firm. Posh + Lavish mattresses only come in one firmness option: medium firm. This means that Luma Sleep has a wider range of firmness options to choose from, so you can find the perfect mattress for your needs.
- Luma Sleep mattresses have a 10-year warranty, while Posh + Lavish mattresses only have a 5-year warranty. This means that Luma Sleep is more confident in the quality of its mattresses.
- Luma Sleep has a reputation for excellent customer service. Posh + Lavish, on the other hand, has a reputation for poor customer service.
If you are looking for the best possible night’s sleep, a Luma Sleep mattress is the way to go. It is made from the highest quality materials, has a durable construction, and is backed by a 10-year warranty.
