Brooklyn Bedding Best Mattress Ever

[phoenix]

Hi logantv,

Welcome to the Mattress Forum!

We’re also returning our Leesa due to shoulder pain (side sleepers). We were a couple weeks outside their 100 nights but they still honored it, no questions asked. It’s also a quality product, just too firm.

I’m sorry your Leesa mattress didn’t work out well for you. I advise caution to anyone considering the Leesa, as the 2" of 3 lb memory foam is a potential weak link in this mattress. You can read more about Leesa in post #2 here .

Coincidentally we’re in Phoenix this week so we went to a Brooklyn store and actually laid on them. Soft and medium both had much more of a pillowtop feel compared to Leesa.

I’m glad you were able to test out these mattresses in person, as nothing can replace your own personal experience and opinion. The BME models use a total of 4" of latex on top, versus the 2" of high performance polyfoam and 2" of memory foam, so the BME would have more of a “buoyant” comfort, which I think is what you are referring to when you say “pillowtop feel” (pillowtop is a tailoring process and not a comfort designation). There are no “standard” definitions or consensus of opinions for firmness ratings, and different manufacturers can rate their mattresses very differently than other manufacturers, so I’m glad you were able to test these items in person (see post #15 here).

Based on your lower back complaints we’ll be going Brooklyn medium FWIW.

Congratulations on purchasing your new mattress! :cheer: I’ll look forward to any feedback you have upon the product once you’ve had a chance to sleep upon it for a while.
