DreamCloud Classic Hybrid vs Brooklyn Bedding Copperflex Pro Hybrid: Which mattress is right for you?
Type: HybridFirmness: Firm (8/10)Height: 12"Sizes: 7Sleep trial: 365 nightsWarranty: LifetimePrice: from $1,014 at DreamCloudShipping: Free Type: HybridFirmness: Medium-firm (7/10)Height: 14"Sizes: 6Sleep trial: 120 nightsWarranty: Limited lifetimePrice: from $932 at Brooklyn BeddingShipping: Free The DreamCloud Classic Hybrid is one of America's most popular mattresses, while the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is a relative newcomer with a close resemblance. But which is best? Here's where we compare both mattresses to help you decide which might be your best bedtime option. Both the DreamCloud and CopperFlex Pro promise to deliver a luxurious feel at an affordable price, and both mattresses are rated highly by our expert reviewers and by customers. You'll find the DreamCloud in our guide to the tried and tested best mattresses of 2025, where we rate it as the best affordable mattress and praise it for its pressure relief and back support as well as its temperature regulation. While the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid hasn't yet made it into our best mattress guide, it's definitely a strong contender thanks to its effective cooling, zoned lumbar support and a luxurious pillow top. If you're not so sure about your next mattress purchase as the Memorial Day mattress sales come closer, we can help you decide. In this article we'll compare the DreamCloud Classic Hybrid and CopperFlex Pro in terms of build, support, temperature regulation and price, so that you can quickly decide which option is best for you. Read on for all the facts... We rate the DreamCloud Classic Hybrid as one of the best luxury mattresses if you're looking for something affordable. A queen size has an MSRP (or 'total value' as DreamCloud say) of $1,531, but there's little chance of you ever having to pay that, thanks to evergreen DreamCloud mattress sales. At the time of writing, the brand's up to 60% off Memorial Day sale makes the price of a queen $649. At MSRP the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is a cheaper option, with a queen size coming in at $1,332. Again, regular Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales will bring the price down, but they're not as generous as DreamCloud's. You'll usually get 25% off, which drops the price of a queen size to $999. It's worth keeping an eye on mattress sales from both brands, because if you buy at the right time you can get an even lower price. The cheapest we've seen the DreamCloud Classic Hybrid for recently is $599 for a queen, while Brooklyn Bedding occasionally ups its discount to 30%, which would reduce the price of the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid in a queen size to around $932. Both mattresses come with a lifetime warranty and free delivery, however the DreamCloud has a more generous sleep trial period: you'll get a whole year to decide whether it's right for you, while with the CopperFlex Pro you get a 120-night trial. DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress: was from $1,014 $399 at DreamCloudThe DreamCloud has made a big name for itself thanks to its luxurious feel at an affordable price. There's up to 60% off at DreamCloud right now, which means you'll pay $649 for a queen size. That's a good price but it's not the cheapest we've seen it, and if you pick your moment you may be able to get it for just $599. Expect a lifetime warranty, 365-night trial and free shipping, too. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid Mattress: was from $932 $699 at Brooklyn BeddingThe CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is a new mattress from Brooklyn Bedding that combines a luxurious feel with advanced cooling. There's 25% off in the Brooklyn Bedding sale at the moment, dropping the price of a queen size to $999 — a fair price, but if you hold out for Brooklyn Bedding's occasional 30% discount you'll pay less. While you'll get the same limited lifetime warranty and free shipping, you'll only get a 100-night trial. Once you start looking closely at these mattresses, you'll realize just how similar they are. They're both hybrid mattresses featuring quilted covers, multiple layers of foam and layers of 8-inch encapsulated springs. The DreamCloud is ranked as most affordable in our best hybrid mattress guide, but you won't find the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid there; at least, not yet. So let's take a closer look at their makeup. There are six layers to the 12" DreamCloud Classic Hybrid, including the bottom cover. On top you'll find a quilted cover featuring cooling fibers and a stitched-in foam layer, and under that there's a contouring memory foam layer and an adaptive foam support layer. 8" of individually-wrapped coils deliver tailored support and reduce motion transfer, and a thin layer of dense foam beneath that keeps everything stable. Finally there's a protective bottom cover to hold it all together. The CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is similar, with some advanced cooling features. You get a Glaciotex cooling cover with 1.5" of quilt foam (making up a pillowtop) designed to relieve pressure, 2" of copper-infused memory foam, and 1" of transition foam sitting on top of a 0.75"-zoned lumbar support layer. Ascension X coils promise similar benefits to the DreamCloud's springs (motion isolation and edge support) and, yes, underneath that you'll find a layer of high density support foam, plus of course a protective bottom cover. In short: there's an extra layer to the CopperFlex Pro: the transition layer between the memory foam and the support foam. With the bottom cover, this gives it seven layers in total. Another thing both these mattresses have in common is that neither of them have handles on the edges, which can make it tricky to maneuver them. It's when you start looking at the comfort and support delivered by these mattresses that you'll start to get a feel for which option might be best for you. On paper they're pretty close: the DreamCloud Classic Hybrid is rated a 6.5 medium-firm, while the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is rated a 7, so there shouldn't be that much difference, right? However, in our DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress review we found that in use, this mattress is a lot firmer than described; we think it's more of an 8, and we think that lighter side sleepers might struggle to settle into it at first, potentially benefitting from one of the best mattress toppers to soften things up a bit. It's worth noting that we reviewed an older, 14" model of the DreamCloud (and are in the process of reviewing the newer version), but we don't think the changes in the current model will make an enormous difference to the feel. Meanwhile, the back and stomach sleepers in our testing panel found that the DreamCloud delivered excellent pressure relief and support, keeping everything nicely aligned and alleviating lumbar discomfort. You'll note that we include the DreamCloud Classic Hybrid in our best mattress for back pain buying our Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress review we found that it also performed well when it came to lumbar support, thanks to its zoned coil layer. We also found that its rating of 7 for firmness was pretty much on the money; there's slightly more of a sink-in feel to this mattress, in part thanks to the plush pillow-top, and it's one that's better suited to side sleepers and lightweight combination sleepers, who also switch between back and stomach sleeping. We felt it could also suit back sleepers, but heavier sleepers and stomach sleepers who prefer a firmer mattress may find that that the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is just a little too plush for their tastes. Both mattresses performed well in our standardized motion isolation tests where we drop a 10lb weight at set heights and distances from an empty wine glass on the mattress. For the CopperFlex Pro, the wine glass only moved when the weight was dropped from 12", while we saw slight movement on the DreamCloud Classic when the weight was dropped from both 8- and 12", but noted it was minimal. This indicates that these are both beds on which you're unlikely to be disturbed by a partner's nocturnal movements, making them great mattresses for couples. We also found that both mattresses did well in our edge support tests, and our reviewer found that while there was some sinkage of the weight we used for these tests (3.5") due to the pillowtop, she could comfortably sleep right up to the edges on the CopperFlex Pro. The DreamCloud Classic Hybrid saw less sinkage (about 1"), and lighter weight, smaller testers found the edge support sufficient, but our taller and heavier testers reported that that they considered it to be too weak for comfort. Perhaps the biggest difference between the DreamCloud and the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is in their cooling properties. In short: the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid has a much stronger case for inclusion in our best cooling mattress guide. That's partly down to its GlacioTex cover (the fibers of which have high thermal conductivity) which feels cool to the touch. It also helps that the CopperFlex Pro features a memory foam layer infused with copper particles that draw heat away from the surface and help to counteract the heat-trapping properties of memory foam. The DreamCloud, on the other hand, is short on specific cooling properties; its cover is made with cooling fibers, but that's about it. Both mattresses benefit from deep sprung layers that will do a good job of circulating air to keep temperatures down, and none of our reviewers reported problems with overheating. However our CopperFlex Pro Hybrid reviewer pointed out that she enjoyed a cool sleep experience even during a heatwave and after exercising. ✅ You're on a reduced budget: The DreamCloud's selling point has always been that it's a luxury mattress at an affordable price point, and it's considerably cheaper than the the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid. ✅ You're a back or stomach sleeper: Side sleepers – particularly lighter ones – may struggle to get comfortable on the DreamCloud. However if you generally sleep on your back and stomach you're going to get on very well with this mattress thanks to its outstanding support. ✅ You experience back or hip pain: The DreamCloud has a place on our best mattresses for back pain guide for good reason, it provides excellent back support and our testers who experience hip and back pain found it was reduced while sleeping on this mattress. ✅ You want a cooling mattress: The CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is designed to keep you from overheating, with a cool-to-the-touch cover and copper-infused memory foam, and it performs incredibly well when it comes to regulating temperature. ✅ You change position in the night: With a slightly softer feel than the DreamCloud, the CopperFlex Pro is suitable for all sleep positions, and because you don't sink deeply into it you won't have problems if you tend to switch position a lot as you sleep. ✅ You're looking for strong edge support: Even with the plush pillowtop, the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid still delivers great edge support. You'll be able to use the full surface of this mattress, and sleep right up to the edges.

Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress review 2025: A comfortable-for-most mattress with specialist cooling
The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress is one of the newest (and reasonably priced) models within the 3Z brand sleep suite. As a brand, Brooklyn Bedding mattresses are renowned for performing well in our in-house mattress testing, gaining spots in several of our key guides to the best mattresses of 2025. So, I had high expectations ahead of my the CopperFlex Pro — and it hasn't let me down. You'll find my full review further down the page, but read below for my review in brief... Type: HybridMaterials: Springs, copper foamsFirmness: Firm (7/10)Height: 14'Trial Period: 100 nightsWarranty: LifetimePrice: From $749 (MSRP $998) at Helix Sharing the same cooling GlacioTex cover as the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe (which ranks highly in our guide to the best cooling mattresses of the year), the CopperFlex Pro is a well-crafted luxury hybrid mattress that costs just under $1,000 for a queen thanks to a 25% off evergreen mattress sale.I'm a combination sleeper, which means that I shift positions from my stomach, back and side throughout the night. That can make it difficult to find a mattress that delivers support for each sleep position. Despite this, I have slept soundly on the mattress over a month. I've been impressed by how cool and comfortable it has kept me night after night, even in the face of an unseasonable British springtime heatwave. In my opinion, the CopperFlex Pro rivals the temperature regulating prowess of some of our favorite cooling beds, such as the Bear Elite Hybrid and Cocoon by Sealy Chill mattress. Brooklyn Bedding peg the CopperFlex Pro as 7/10 for firmness, and I'd agree with that rating. The plush pillow top cover provides ample pressure relief when lying on my side, gently cradling my shoulders, hips and knees. However, the 760 encased coils bolster the mattress' overall support, giving it a responsive sleep feel that you lie on top of rather than sink into it. That makes it suitable for back sleepers, dig into why I think this mattress is a great option for side and combination sleepers looking for a cooling sleep solution to see them through the summer months and beyond... Like the best mattresses for under $1,000, the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress costs $999 for a queen after a 25% off evergreen discount. It comes in six standard sizes from twin to Cal king. Here's the MSRP and usual sale price of each size after the regular 25% discount: Evergreen Brooklyn Bedding mattress sales consistently cut around 25% off all mattresses on their website. And this discount tends to peak at 30% during major sales like the upcoming Memorial Day mattress sales. Of course, this extra 5% saving is nice, but no matter when you shop the CopperFlex, you can rest assured you're getting outstanding quality for a great value price. After the current 25% discount is applied, a queen size chimes in just under $1,000 at $999 (was $1,332). With a limited lifetime warranty, 120-night sleep trial and free shipping included, Brooklyn Bedding's perks are also decent. Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress: twin was $932 now $699 at Brooklyn Bedding This mattress is yet to sell at MSRP since its release in November 2024. After a 25% discount a queen size CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is $999 (MSRP $1,332). Want to buy at the best possible price? Waiting for Memorial Day could score you 30% off. Brooklyn Bedding market the CopperFlex Pro as an 'affordable luxury' mattress and I think they've hit the nail on the head with this description. With its honey combe memory foam pillow top and bronze stitching, it feels like a premium mattress straight out of the box. Beneath the quilted GlacioTex cover, there's 760 encased coils and copper-infused foam (which draws heat from the body), all geared towards temperature regulation, pressure relief and lumbar support. Meanwhile, transition foam takes care of motion isolation and high-density foam provides durability. At 14" tall, the height of the mattress aesthetically lends itself to a five-star hotel luxury while providing sturdy support. But it makes dressing the bed a difficult task. Even a deep pocket sheet struggled to stretch over the tall mattress. Additionally, it is a bit of a clamber to get into bed. Young and fit, this didn't bother me and I like the lofty feel. But, for this reason, it may not be the best option for sleepers with mobility issues (unless you're able to lower your bed frame closer to the ground.) Considering the weight of this bed, handles attached to the cover would make for easier manoeuvring when it is time to rotate your mattress. Brooklyn Bedding rate the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid a 7/10 medium-firm mattress, and I'm inclined to agree with this rating. It provides cushioning and support in equal measure to relieve pressure in joints while supporting the spine through the night. I'm a combination sleeper who switches between side, back and stomach sleeping. But I spend most of my sleep time on my side. Therefore, the pressure relief offered by the plush pillow top on this mattress was perfect for my sleep style. The pillow top surface with honeycomb stitching and ribbing contours to your body as you lay on it. Meanwhile the coil layer is arranged in three zones to enhance lumbar support, which is a premium feature more commonly found in the best mattresses for back pain. You can feel the mattress accommodating your movements as you switch between positions. Although I felt myself sinking into the mattress surface slightly I never felt like I had to fight out of the foam to switch position. Instead it is responsive while offering a gentle hugging feel. I slept on this mattress during marathon training, which meant I was often inflicted with the odd muscle ache and pain, making a supportive mattress all the more important. I credit the CopperFlex for helping me rest and recover well during this intense training block. Ultimately, the pillow top surface makes the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid an ideal mattress for side sleepers and light weight combination sleepers. Light weight side sleepers would likely enjoy the extra cushioning offered by the memory foam CopperFlex Pro. But heavier side sleepers and strict stomach sleepers would benefit from a firmer bed found in our best firm mattress guide. Score: 4 out of 5 Like the best mattresses in a box, the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid comes compressed, rolled and vacuum packed in a cardboard box, which faired the journey to us well. As with any mattress, we recommend having two sets on hands on deck for unboxing. Our unboxers reported minimal off-gassing with this mattress. Literally, they had to get up close to the mattress to smell the unavoidable chemical smell of the packaging, and this dissipated in minutes. The brand recommends leaving the mattress to inflate for 24 hours before snoozing on it. Although it looked ready to sleep on within minutes, I heeded their advice so I didn't damage the mattress materials. Do note that due to the height and heaviness of this mattress, it is difficult to manoeuvre once fully expanded, especially since it doesn't have handles attached to the cover. So you'll want to be sure you unbox it in the bedroom you intend for it to stay (I say this after unboxing it in our sleep studio and then having to lug it up two flights of stairs, which turned into a four-man mission). Score: 4.5 out of 5 We slept on a full size Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress for one month, here's how it performed in our thorough mattress testing procedures... The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex passed both our objective and subjective motion isolation tests. Our subjective testing in this area involves balancing a wine glass on one side of the mattress while we drop a 10lb weight from set heights and distances on the other side to replicate the force of another body. The wobble of the wine glass indicates how much movement travels across the bed. On the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid, the wine glass didn't budge until the weight was dropped from 12", at which point we expect a wobble due to the responsiveness of springs in a hybrid mattress. We've used this method on the best hybrid mattresses you can buy online right now, and got a similar result to the CopperFlex, indicating little motion transfer. The CopperFlex Pro Hybrid even performed well through toddler-sitting duties. I shared the bed with my 3-year-old nephew when he came to stay and, although I woke a few times as he wriggled next to me, I still managed to get a good night's sleep overall. Score: 4 out of 5 The Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid packs a lot of cooling technology. The combination of airy coils, copper-infused foams and GlacioTex cover delivers a cool sleep experience night after night. The first thing I noticed about this mattress was how it feels cool to touch, likely thanks to the high thermal conductivity fibers in the GlacioTex cover and copper foams, which zap heat away from the mattress surface. I sleep in an attic bedroom which is prone to trapping heat when the temperature rises. But while I've been snoozing on the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress — through a British heatwave, might I add — I haven't found myself running hot at night as I used to on a standard spring mattress. While exercising before bed is not recommended when it comes to reaching an optimal sleep temperature, there was the odd occasion where an evening run was non-negotiable for me during this testing period. Even on the nights I did forgo expert's advice, I managed to cool down and drift off on the CopperFlex without kicking the sheets off in a fluster. While the temperature regulation offered by this mattress was more than enough for our testing panel, particularly hot sleepers who struggle with night sweats would benefit from an active digital cooling system offered by a top-rated smart bed like an Eight Sleep Pod. Score: 4.5 out of 5 We test edge support to make sure we don't fall when getting out of bed, reaching to our bedside table or rolling over during the night. For our objective tests, we place a 25kg weight on, and sit on, all corners and edges and in the centre of the mattress. With the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress, we observed a 3.5" sink in all areas. Although that sounds (and looks in the images) like quite a bit of sink, you must expect this with a pillow top mattress. Plus it bounced back immediately once the weight was lifted. When using the mattress night to night, I didn't note any edge support-related problems. As a combination sleeper I need a mattress with reinforced edges to make sure I don't end up on the floor while switching between positions during the night. Happily, I have been able to confidently sleep right up to the bed's edge on the Copperflex ProBut the real test of the edge support is when I lean over to my bedside table to retrieve a piping hot mug from my bedside table (a herbal tea is part of my nighttime routine.) Unlike with my old spring mattress which would often dip beneath me if I got too close to the edge, there have been no spillages on the CopperFlex (though the GlacioTex cover would handily protect the mattress against spills and stains.) Score: 4 out of 5 At just six months old, the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid mattress has 532 reviews with an average rating of 4.5 out of 5. Reviews praise its firmer support and cooling prowess, but some negative reviews note that it's heavy to handle. Elsewhere, the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid is Rolling Stone recommended, has been nominated for the 2025 Oprah Daily Sleep O-wards and is CNN underscored. CNET describe the mattress as "comfortable, versatile and supportive" at "a very budget-friendly price". Meanwhile video reviewers at Brooklyn Bedding say the CopperFlex mattresses offer brilliant quality and are easy to install in your home. Hot sleepers looking for a bed with reliable cooling relief, ample comfort and sturdy support without breaking the bank are in safe hands with this Brooklyn Bedding mattress. While I best recommend this mattress to side sleepers who like a cushioned sleep surface, it is versatile. The medium-firm feel supports all the positions of an average weight combination sleeper, while its zoned lumbar support helps keep the spine in healthy alignment. Without too much sinkage, myself and the rest of our testing were comfortable switching between positions on the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid. While our stomach-sleeping tester approved of the CopperFlex, if they had to pick a favorite, the Plank Firm mattress by Brooklyn Bedding, with a firmer, more responsive sleep surface, takes their vote. In short, this is a comfortable-for-most mattress with specialist cooling technology at a very reasonable price. Its build quality and luxury materials punch way above its mid-range price point. It regulates temperature exceptionally and performed well across the board in our mattress tests. Also from Brooklyn Bedding, the Aurora Luxe Hybrid mattress is a top cooling mattress and one of our best mattresses for back pain that can help you combat an unfortunate concoction of sleep issues — hot flushes and back pain. It comes in three firmness levels and 10 sizes including an RV King. With a queen size now $1,398.75 (was $1,865), it is more expensive than the CopperFlex, suitable for those looking for even more luxury. Learn more in our Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe mattress review. The Cocoon by Sealy Chill is an all-foam, competitively priced mattress complete with a breathable knit cover made with phase change materials. This means it's cool to touch and helps wick away sweat. During testing for our Cocoon by Sealy Chill Mattress review, our reviewers slept comfortably cool, which is surprising on a memory foam bed. It is even cheaper than the CopperFlex at $699 for a queen after an evergreen 35% Cocoon by Sealy mattress deal. Plus you get a sleep bundle included. We recommend the Purple Mattress to couples looking for strong motion isolation and temperature regulation. Its open-cell GelFlex grid is breathable as well as pressure relieving. Price-wise, it falls in the upper-mid bracket with a queen at $1,499 MSRP. But Purple mattress sales and deals occasionally knock $200 or more off. Act fast and you can grab this discount now.
