Their mattresses get good ratings from customers at first, but some had issues with durability. Looking for DreamCloud? See what customers say in our updated DreamCloud mattress review.

Edge support is an important attribute for solid mattresses and for those that spend lots of time sitting on the edge of their bed. These mattresses have well rated edge support, but some who are heavier may experience some decline.

Bed in a box -- okay
Bought this bed after reading about its donation of a bed for a bed. What I didn't realize was that doing that may have made a less durable product. After a few weeks of having the mattress, I am noticing a bit of a dip in my bed. I have turned it over and it seemed to go away, but I am still concerned long term. Overall, pretty pleased with the mattress for the price though.
Good mattress but...
Good mattress but there seemed to be a very distinct odor when I got it. I know that it is Certipur so it shouldn't contain harmful chemicals, but it definitely reaks. But, once I fall asleep -- gotta say, boy am I comfortable. Can't complain about that!
Delivered a little late but still good
The delivery was supposed to come on a Thursday, but it didn't show up until late the following week. It definitely made for an uncomfortable week with the wife yelling on about her back pain, but luckily once we got the thing, it ended up being pretty darn comfortable. So in the end, I am happy.
Great mattress
Got the mattress last month and really loving it. I am sleeping like a baby!
Hottest bed ever
I ordered the Dream Bed original and no one should ever buy this. I am usually too cold at night, but this thing makes me claustrophobic and sweaty all night. It is like sleeping in hell.
Super comfy
I had a terrible Sealy mattress that started to poke my sides with its coils. But now, I am super comfy nightly in my Dream Bed. I wish this bed was around in the 90s because I would have bought one for all my kids. Now, I am just sleeping soundly and loving my new bed.
Hot and back pain
I am a heavy side sleeper and I thought that this dreambed was going to be good for me, but unfortunately, it is way too hot and also my back kills me when I wake up. I feel like I am sinking into the thing and already it has a big indent. I mean, I am not that fat, but this makes it seem like I am the world's biggest man. What the hell?!
Mistake
I had a plush top mattress before I bought the Dream Bed because of the price. I should have just kept with what I knew because the memory foam is not for me. It smells, hurts, and feels like I am sagging all the time. I wish that I had bought an innerspring, but I am stuck with it.
Love my Dream Bed
Can't complain about the dreambed. I got the twin for my daughter who is 7 and she absolutely loves it. We didn't even need a mattress topper because of how soft it is. She snuggles under all of her blankets and tells us how much she loves it every morning when we try to get her up for school. Only problem? She never wants to leave her bed.
Thanks to Dream Bed
No more pain! I had terrible pain with my traditional mattress, but the Dream Bed really has made this pain vanish. I was as surprised as anyone because I suffered an accident from falling off a ladder, and nothing would save my back. This bed has changed me though. I can't say enough good things!
Awesome Sleep
Sleeping so much better then ever. Thought my lack of falling asleep quickly was an issue I was having. But I’m not having any problem falling asleep with my new memory foam mattress. I also find I sleep without waking up often.
Nice supportive firm bed
Great bed! I have a bad back and it’s supportive and firm. When it was new it was very firm however it feels Egged when broken into.
In love
Absolutely love this mattress! Best sleep I've had.
Always stay with yout first choice
Went to one location and picked what we felt would be our perfect mattress, went to a second one and was talked out of it and so far not what we wanted but staying optimistic
Good mattress
The cooling on this mattress was fenominal, but it was a little too firm for our liking.
Too Firm?
We got the firm mattress and it may be too firm for our tastes. However we have been sleeping well and the mattress is clearly high quality. The 15 minute test in the store was not enough.
Getting HAPPY
Bed is firmer than store but I rather tgat than soft.
Great Mattresses
I really enjoy my new mattress, I was skeptical at first, but it turned out better than I imagined. It stays nice and cool.
Best bed ever!
I bought this mattress in February for our second home. We look forward to going so we can get a good nights sleep!! It is the most comfortable mattress I have ever had the pleasure of sleeping on.
Good Firm Bed but not as Cool as I hoped.
I have another memory foam bed and know they sleep warm. I had concerns about getting another one because I am a hot sleeper. The display mattress at store without sheets felt very cool when laying on it. When you get the mattress home with sheets its not as cool. I got a cooling memory foam topper and it still sleeps warm. In the winter time it will be heavenly but it the summer time not so great. My dogs love it and there's very little motion transfer. I would recommend it just not for people who sleep warm.
I like!
Very comfortable! I have a really bad back and usually wake up with pain in my back and shoulders with my old mattress. I have not had any pain so far. I am happy with my new mattress. I took off one star because it does sleep warm. That will be good for the winter time, but I wonder how it will feel in the warmer months.
Soft after 6 mos
I purchased this mattress on the recommendation of the salesman and on the guarantee that the foam is unlike memory foam and would not soften after a year. Initially the mattress was comfortable but now a year has past and the mattress is softer than any traditional mattress I have had previously and the sides are now softer & more broken down than the rest of the mattress ( and this is with a average size female sleeping in the bed). This mattress is just an overpriced memory foam mattress and it definitely will not hold up for 10 or 20 years. I would not recommend.
Great mattress
I bought this a month ago and I'm very happy with the mattress.
Jury is still out
The wife has adapted very well to the mattress . The jury is still out for me.
Great features!
I bought my bed a few weeks ago and I have enjoyed it ever since!! So comfortable!!
Very Comfortable
It is great....dream bed. It is so comfortable. I love it.
Heavenly Bed!
The manager treated us well. He really made sure we were comfortable on our choice, and followed-up to ensure we were happy.
Hate it
Bought the split king. My wife loves it. I hate it. It's hot, really hot. I move to the guest room everynight about 2 am. Wish I could get my old mattress back. Looks like we will be sleeping in seperate bed rooms.
I had an allergic reaction! And it kills my back!
Make sure you definitely let the bed air out! My husband loves the bed, so far for me it's just killing my back, had to sleep on the guest bed for a week just to be able to get around. I can't feel the cooling through the sheets and I have great sheets. I think the bed is over priced and I'm letting the first 30 days of this 120 trial period pass but it will be going back.
Very happy
I’ve had this for about a month and so far am VERY pleased.
Sublime sleep
We bought our mattress about a month ago, the service was excellent, the recommendations where right on target. I haven't slept this good in years. Mattress Firm has some really great selections with solid price ranges for everyone. Couldn't be happier
Comfy
I recently purchased this. So far it’s been a great sleep
Perfect for both of us!
We are a couple that has ALWAYS disagreed about our mattress. He likes firm, I like plush. I have to say though, this mattress has been perfect for both of us! We can both get a good nights sleep and be comfortable in our bed. It has the support of the firm my husband needs, and the comfort of the plush that I like. We have bought 3 different mattresses in the last 18 years and this has been the ONLY one we BOTH like! Inly draw back is I wish the side was a little bit firmer when I sit on it, but for sleeping it's perfect!
Incredibly comfortable, so satisfied
I love this mattress so much and was comparing it to a temperpedic, its awesome
Sleeping Better!
I bought this to take to my new home and it has helped to decrease my back pain. This bed was the best investment I could have made!
Nice mattress
My wife and I looked at all mattresses in store and was told it would be cooler to sleep on than the one we had but is warmer, we were showed the blue sealer on mattress and said It would cause it to be cooler, actually warmer than last, had to have the adjustable base though, and now finding problem to get sheet sets for the king split. You get two twin sheets, two cases but no king top sheet have to overlap the two twin top sheets, mess. Will see still have little time to decide on keep it or look at other ones there.
My favorite mattress ever!
I've been sleeping on the mattress for about a month-it's the most comfortable mattress I've ever owned! Previously had a TempurPedic, but this one is even better. It sleeps cool thanks to the cooling gel and is neither too hard or too soft. I bought the adjustable frame which works well with it, and the bundle with the mattress protector, bamboo sheets and cooling pillows. Now I need a tv in my bedroom so I can spend more time on this awesome mattress!
Not a comfortable Mattress
We back and traded for another mattress. Mattress was just uncomfortable.
Awesome Bed
Bought in July and is incredible. We sleep so nice. We love the bed. The only problem is getting out of it in the morning! I would highly recommend this bed for: People that have sleep issues, bad backs, heat/cold issues. This is the best bed we have ever owned. At age 60, we have had a lot. I would say invest the money now in this bed so you can sleep better and wake up refreshed.

Heaven
Because my back is full of rods nuts and bolts, finding the right mattress wasn't looking like it was possible until I tried my Tempur-Pedic breeze. When your in pain, you tend to feel hot. Not only is this bed comfortable, I can always find that cool spot that helps with the pain. I had another adjustable bed, it was great, but after 15 years, it was time to replace it. I used to have to sleep with a pillow under my knees, no more. Whatever Tempur-Pedic has done, they've done it right. I'm grateful, I'm sleeping and wake up rested. Thank you

Most comfortable and cool of the tempur-pedic
We previous had the Tempur-pedic rhapsody which we loved but. The new temper breeze is firmer and much cooler than the old version. We absolutely love it! No more back pain!
Disappointing
We are very disappointed with the comfort of our new bed. I believe that our old mattress was more comfortable.
Never will own anything else
We were hooked on tempur pedic from the first time!! Worth every penny, no other mattress will be in our home!!❤❤❤
JURY IS STILL OUT
While the bed definitely has helped with significantly reducing pain from my long standing back issues, it sleeps quite hot despite the fact I am using a Tempur Pedic mattress cover and sheets. It has also resulted in some shoulder and neck pain. I will give it a few more weeks.
Best Purchase ever !
I has owned a memory Foam temperpedic for 12 years This new Breeze Firm mattress compares to NONE ! I've ever tried ! It's not too firm it moves with you It's most comfortable mattress I have ever tried , and in almost month since purchase I have Better sleep , cooling affect has been excellent!

I am so happy I splurged on myself and got both of these .. no more dips from the old mattress ! No more hot , mattress or pillow ! I have severe lumbar stenosis and My back has Actually stopped burning &aching ! I couldn't be more comfortable!
Comfortable from day 1
This is by far the best mattress I have ever slept on. No getting used to. It was comfortable from day one. I slept like a baby, something I have not experienced in a long time. The Pro-Breeze medium hybrid was the perfect choice for me. I have degenerative joint disease and recently had TKR surgery. I should have gotten one of these a long time ago. I highly recommend this mattress. I am also very happy with the service I received from mattress specialist Philip at the Carle Place NY store. He was very knowledgeable, patient and professional. Great shopping experience. Thanks Philip!
Wonderful mattress
We have had the queen size tempur-breeze pro hybrid for about 1 month and are very pleased with it. My wife was waking up with back pain and me with hip pain from our 15 year old firm inner spring mattress. The temple-breeze memory foam adjusts perfectly to our bodies. We are both side sleepers. We did not need a break in period and there was no odor, as others have complained about. The cooling aspect of the mattress is very unique from other memory foam mattresses and really does seem to draw the heat away from you body and keep the temperature cool. I do recommend if at all possible to buy from a tempurpedic store. The sales people are very knowledgeable and will recommend the best mattress for your sleeping position. They also have a much bigger selection to try out than other stores. When we purchased there was a President's Day sale and we saved $500 plus got a $300 credit we used against the cost of pillows and a mattress cover. The mattress was still expensive but when you consider how long you use one it is well worth the cost. I now look forward to a good night's sleep.
Awesome mattress and sheets
Love this mattress, we sleep much better and the sheets are a wonderful feet and soft like silk.
better sleep
our first tempur-pedic lasted for 17 yrs, great bed, made a mistake and went with a number bed on the next one. my wife and I hated if for 4 long yrs. now we have went back to a tempur-pedic and we love going to bed everyday now. lesson learned tempur-pedics' from now on.
Get LuxeBreeze not ProBreeze
ProBreeze was too hot aftt ty we about 1 hour. Exchanged it for LuxeBreeze 8•
Very Disappointed - Hot and uncomfortable
Wake up feeling like we slept on the floor. It's cool to the touch when you first lay down, but in the middle of the night it's hot just like all beds. Very disappointed that we spent twice as much for a regular mattress and it is so uncomfortable. Return policy is not customer friendly!
Awesome!
Went from a 7 yr old Serta I comfort to a tempur-pedic luxebreeze soft, and Wow what a difference, we absolutely love our bed. It has been so comfortable since day one.
Quality
A little hard getting used to, but am liking it better now and have been sleeping well. Think I'm going to like it.
My mattress is so comfortable
My mattress keeps me cooler just as instructed. The mattress is very comfortable
We love it!!!
We bought the bed when we moved to our new home, love it!!! My husband is able to sleep all night for the first time in months, and I love the feeling of the mattress meeting your body when you move!
Finally a bed that does what it promises!
Absolutely love my new mattress! We can move without pain or disturbing eachother, its completely silent. We sleep longer and awake refreshed. It truly has been a wonderful experience.
Comfort
This has been amazing from the start!!! Better nights rest equals better quality of life!!!
the most uncomfortable mattress Ive ever owned
I have had more back pain, cricks, and chiropractor visits since owning this mattress. Waste of money. You need support and this mattress does not do it. Take it from this doctor, this mattress is all hype.
Best night sleep ever
Simply the best night sleep I have ever had. I have not had such a deep sleep in such a long time. It truly is like sleeping on a cloud. I also got the the cloud pillow and no more stiff neck. The best investment. I got my queen size tempur breeze lux soft with adjustable frame October 2019 and have been sleeping better. Make the investment you will thank yourself many times over!! Do it now!
The cooling is amazing!
The mattress is unbelievably comfortable, but living in hot weather it is the cooling that has been a game changer for us. It has allowed us to get a much better night's sleep!
Hate this mattress
Hurts my shoulders. Nothing like the store sample, which was comfortable. Hate it!!!! Can't say "hate it" enough.
New purchase less than 3 days and It's okay
Bought for the cooling feature. Luxe Breeze soft- After applying the Tempur Mattress cover and a very thin sheet, the cooling is gone. I have slept for 2 days in this bed which is the most expensive mattress for a full king(no split) and I have woke up sweating throughout the night. I also have figured out that if the room is cool then there is no soft conforming of your body. You must have a warm room to make the mattress even barely soft. I purchased this because I am a hot sleeper and to take these night sweats away by at least 50%, so far I can't justify the money I've spent. I called the manufacturer and they advised that I must use a protector cover on the bed to protect my warranty but if I can't feel any cooler after applying the cover and a sheet then why should I keep this bed. I will update before the sleep trial to see if my thought has changed. The adjustable option is awesome, no so much so far on the mattress keeping me 8 degrees cooler.
Highly Satisfied
My wife and I knew that the Tempur-Pedic ProBreeze was the mattress that we were going to purchase from the moment that we laid on it. It's cool to the touch and provides comfortable support.
The best mattress I've ever owned
For the first few nights, I needed to adjust to the firmness, but now, I literally can't wait to get home from work, eat dinner, and get in that bed. The adjustable base makes it so comfortable to watch TV, and I've never slept better. Those little aches and pains that you wake up with are gone with this mattress. You may not even realize that you have these little pains, until you start sleeping on a TempurPedic. Within a week, you'll see a difference in how you feel in the morning. I love my bed. Thank you, TempurPedic!
Best bed ever. Like sleeping on a cloud
Firm, cool, perfect sleep regardless of the position. It's really a good night's rest
Finally found the perfect bed for me.
I'm 5' 11'' and 170lbs. This bed sleeps great on my stomach, back and side. I'm primarily a side sleeper and wake up much less and do not feel the need to toss and turn to relieve pressure points. I previously was trialing a 6k Intellibed that couldn't even come close to the support and pressure relief that this offers. Also, a little tip, I use a really low profile pillow on this because it allows my shoulders to get into the mattress more and align my spine better. My wife has the all foam version but I like the added support that the pocket coil system provides. I've watched and read so many different mattress reviews, and know more about mattresses than any regular person should. I can finally be done with that - this mattress is a keeper.
Best money we've ever spent!
For years my husband and I have both suffered from back pain and rarely are able to sleep through the night because of that pain. Since we got our new beds (we got two Twin XL's and separate adjustable bases), my husband, for the first time since I've known him, has slept LONGER than I have! He will sleep through my alarm and will sleep until after 7 am! For an army man and 1st shift worker, this is huge. We are both finally able to find comfort and sleep well. Additionally, we are both very warm sleepers and while it hasn't made a huge difference, this mattress is absolutely cooler than any other one we've ever owned. Every night since we've gotten our new beds, I've looked at him and said, "I LOVE THIS BED". I know the price can be intimidating, however, it is 100% worth it! If you are looking for comfort, Temper-Pedic is the way to go. Bite the bullet and spend the money. I promise, you will not regret it.
Best purchase
We were told it would take 120 days until it contoured to our bodies completely. It was a little strange the first few nights but it's been over a month now and I am starting to tell how much more better sleep I am getting, my body feels rested and not as sore, and I really love how much the bed doesn't shake my husband when I jump into bed! The only thing I do not care for is the protective cover for the mattress it came with. It feels like I am lying on paper. I finally took it off and it feels better without it. I also wish it came with king size pillows too.
Love it!!
This is our second Tempur-Pedic. Our first one lasted eight years, and they stood behind their full guarantee. We got another a Tempur-Pedic because we so enjoyed the first one. This one seems even better! Great company, great bed, and a good night of sleep!
Sleep
Love it. Sleep better from day 1.
Quality Sleep With Plush, Cool, Even Support
Purchasing a Tempur-Pedic mattress product was always in mind when a mattress replacement was due after my first experience on a Tempur-Pedic during a business conference hotel stay. We are extremely pleased with the cool, plush, even support of the LuxBreeze Soft mattress provides.
Not transformative for me
Although it is a little more comfortable than my previous mattress, I certainly do not find it a "transformative" or life-changing experience. I am two months into my 90 day trial and I am still considering returning it. I have wanted a Tempur-pedic bed for many years but could not afford it. so when I finally decided to take the plunge and spend the money, I was very excited to own one. However, in the end I am rather disappointed in the product.
Very comfortable
I love the adjustable head and foot sections.
Return Buyer.
We owned our first Tempur- Pedic bed for 15years. When it was time to get a new matters we recycled our old CA. King to a family in need. We then went out and bought a new XL Twin Split with adjustable base. This is a little slice of heaven after a long day. We can relax and unwind. The adjustable base is worth every penny. Some days I use it as a lounger just to relax. I'm not a huge fan of the message feature but the grand kids think it's cool.
A little bit of heaven!
I love this mattress. The comfort is out of this world. Well worth the price.
Great bed
We went from a soft bed to this I was like what did we do. We were like this thing is a brick. But after a few days it began to give for a great nights sleep. I am a big guy with 7 ruptured disc in my back and neck and usually toss and turn every 30 minutes at night and am now just turning 2 times a night and am sleeping great. I love the bed. Just give it a little while to break in.
Soft luxe breeze
First I purchased the firm option but found it way too firm woke up with body aches so I changed it to soft. What a difference ! I like a soft bed i upgraded from a icomfort savant medium . So glad I did
Probreeze bed and pillow
The bed is very comfortable and gives very good support. However, the pro breeze pillow is much too thick and was a total waste of money.
Our 5 year search is over.... Perfect Sleep is here!
For a little background, over the last 5 years, my wife and I have slept on virtually every high profile bed in a box out there. Casper, Purple, Helix, Yogabed, etc. We even bought an Intellibed. But we were unhappy with all of them. It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but we were sleeping on those because our previous Tempurpedic Rhapsody model began to break down after 7.5 years of loyal service. We left it at our old home which become a rental unit that was converted into a furnished rental. We thought we might try to replace it with a less expensive option like the ones listed above. Long story short, that was a terrible idea!!! We have been sleeping on our LUXEbreeze 8F cooler mattress for a month or two at this point and we both wonder what the heck is wrong with us that we didn't do this years ago! The Ergo adjustable base combined with our new mattress is just perfect. This is also the first time we've done the split King so we could each be in a different position and it was the perfect choice. She's 110lbs and I'm 200lbs so we have very different needs but this bed serves us both perfectly. I probably sound like a paid advertiser at this point, haha, but I assure you I am not. I'm simply a thoroughly satisfied customer who spent 7 years in the desert and rediscovered paradise, haha! It's certainly not the least expensive mattress out there, but it's undoubtedly the best.
