Best Queen Mattress in Canada

The most popular mattress size in Canada is the Queen. A Queen-sized mattress is typically around 152 x 203.5 cm (60” by 80”), which is perfect for guest rooms, smaller bedrooms, and more. These beds are large enough for couples, even those who like a bit of space. The price factor also puts Queen mattresses at the top of most Canadians’ list. They are less expensive than King-sized mattresses but offer many of the same size benefits. To help you choose the best queen mattress in Canada, we’ve selected a few of our favourites.

Our Process for Testing Queen-Sized Mattresses in Canada

Our Scoring Process for Queen Mattresses

When we scored the Queen mattresses on our list, we looked at scores from various corners. We looked at our experts’ opinions, tester feedback, and scores from our testing process. These scores were all considered carefully. Our team created composite scores for each mattress based on all of this feedback combined.

Our Tests for Queen Mattresses

These queen mattresses were put through our gauntlet of mattress tests. These tests are separated into two categories: practical, where we test with a team of testers, and simulation tests. Simulation tests use machines that measure temperature, vibrations, and more in various simulated sleeping scenarios. These tests help provide the most complete picture of how the mattress performs in various circumstances.

How We Chose These Queen Mattresses

We chose these queen mattresses based on their performance capabilities across all categories. We specifically looked for mattresses that provided the most comprehensive benefits for couples as well as guests. Once we had these parameters in mind, we looked for mattresses that fit our criteria and performed well through our unique testing gauntlet.

The 6 Best Queen Mattresses in Canada (2024 Edition)

Editor’s Choice – Silk & Snow Hybrid

• Temperature Control: 8.9/10
• Motion Isolation: 9.2/10
• Edge Support: 9.7/10
• Pressure Relief: 8.6/10
• Bounce: 9.1/10
• Eco: 9.0/10
• Response: 9.3/10
• Ease of Movement: 9.4/10
• Policies: 8.7/10

Highlights

• Affordable price for a Queen-sized hybrid mattress
• Great response and ease of movement
• Strong edge support for those who gravitate towards the edge

The Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress is our favourite Queen-sized mattress for a few reasons. The affordable price is one of them. This mattress offers a lot for the relatively inexpensive price point, so you get the most for your money. It doesn’t perform too poorly in any category, so it’s a great all-around mattress. This can make it a good choice for guest rooms, especially if you have guests with a range of preferences.

Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress Construction

• Antimicrobial Cover. A plush, comfortable cover provides a soft place to lay down. This layer uses a quilted layer of foam to provide additional softness. The cover itself is made with antimicrobial fibres, which reduce and restrict bacterial growth. This means your bed stays fresh for longer, which is important since the cover can’t be removed.
• Quilted Layer. This thin layer of memory foam is quilted into the cover. It produces a softer feel for the top of the mattress, helping you fall asleep and reducing immediate pressure.
• Cooling Pressure Relief. The first layer of foam within the mattress is a high-density cooling gel foam. This layer relieves pressure and isolates heat, moving it away from you to keep it from building up. 
• 8” Pocket Coil Base with Zoned Lumbar Support. The supportive core of the mattress features 8” pocket coils. Up to 1,200 coils are arranged into comfort zones, with firmer coils at the centre and around the edges of the mattress.
• Firm Edge Support. The edges of the mattress feature firmer coils, reducing sagging when you sit or sleep near the edge of the bed.

• Antimicrobial Cover. 
• Cooling Fabric. Proprietary cooling fabric is unique to the Plush version of the Endy Hybrid mattress. This layer reduces heat, preventing build-up and keeping night sweats away.
• Quilted Layer. 
• Deep Pressure Relief. Two inches of high-density memory foam delivers better pressure relief, reducing discomfort for side sleepers and those who sink further into the mattress. 
• Transition Layer. The Plush version of the mattress also features an additional transition layer, which cushions the coils so you won’t feel them. This layer also helps with some motion isolation.
• Firm Edge Support.

Silk & Snow Hybrid Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 8.9/10

Silk & Snow’s cooling foam and breathable coils help reduce temperature build-up throughout the mattress. However, the temperature control we saw during testing could be better. Heat built up within the mattress and dissipated a little slower than we like. While the temperatures never reached uncomfortable levels, the slow venting of heat made it a little uncomfortable over time.

Motion Isolation – 9.2/10

We expect hybrid mattresses to perform poorly when it comes to motion isolation, but the Silk & Snow Hybrid returned surprisingly effective scores. During our practical and simulation tests, motion could still be felt on the other side of the bed. However, it wasn’t nearly as much as you would expect, and many smaller motions didn’t travel at all. 

Pressure Relief- 8.6/10

If there is one area where this mattress could perform better, it’s pressure relief. While performance in this area wasn’t poor by any means, it wasn’t as comfortable as we’d hoped. While average and lightweight sleepers won’t have a problem, heavier sleepers were more likely to feel the firmer coils from the zoned coil layer. 

Ease of Movement – 9.4/10

The materials used within the Silk & Snow Hybrid are responsive and make movement easy. We noted fast response times, and our testers didn’t mention any difficulty with moving across the surface. Even after sleeping in the same spot for a long time, movement didn’t take much additional effort.

Who is the Silk & Snow Hybrid For? 

• Couples. This mattress isolates motion well for a hybrid. When your partner tosses and turns, you can sleep peacefully.
• Those who sleep warm. If you sleep warm, this mattress may have enough temperature control for you. Hot sleepers, on the other hand, may need more temperature control measures.
• Canadians who need lumbar support. The zoned coil layer reduces strain on your joints, but it also aligns your spine to prevent discomfort. As a result, you’ll get better support for your hips and lower back.

Who Should Avoid the Silk & Snow Hybrid?

• Canadians who need better pressure relief. The pressure relief on this mattress is far from the worst we’ve seen, but it’s still not the best. If you need deeper pressure relief, the Silk & Snow Hybrid may not be for you.

Alternative Option

The relatively thin comfort layers on the Silk & Snow Hybrid make it a little worse in the pressure relief department. If you need better pressure relief, particularly for side sleepers or heavier sleepers, the Douglas Summit is a good choice. It’s an all-foam mattress rather than a hybrid, but you will sleep more comfortably regardless.

Best All Foam – Douglas Summit

• Temperature Control: 9.2/10
• Motion Isolation: 10/10
• Edge Support: 9.7/10
• Pressure Relief: 10/10
• Bounce: 7.5/10
• Eco: 9.3/10
• Response: 10/10
• Ease of Movement: 9.9/10
• Policies: 10/10

Highlights

• Outstanding motion isolation for couples and restless partners
• Effective pressure relief for most Canadians
• Extremely responsive materials

The Douglas Summit is the company’s top-tier mattress option. This model has more cooling features, motion isolation, edge support, and pressure relief than the other Douglas mattresses. That makes it one of our favourites, as it provides near-perfect performance across most categories. Plus, this mattress is engineered to work for most sleeping positions. If you are buying a mattress for guests, you can’t go wrong with the Douglas Summit.

Douglas Summit Mattress Construction

• Douglas CoolSense Cover with CryoFusion Cooling Nanofibres. Like all of the mattresses in Douglas’s lineup, the Summit features a removable, washable cover. This breathable material is made with sustainable Infinitex thread and woven with CryoFusion Cooling nanofibres, which help remove heat.
• 2.5” Luxury ecoLight Gel Foam with Polar Temperature Balancing. A layer of memory foam at the top of the mattress is coated with phase-changing material. This material maintains a consistent temperature throughout the night, reducing excess heat by venting it through the mattress. The foam itself is a cooling gel foam, which helps vent heat off. 
• 2.5” Premium Elastex Foam. A transition layer of latex-alternative Elastex foam creates a deeper cushion for all of your pressure points. This material makes this mattress responsive and helps isolate some motion.
• 7” Motion Isolation Support Foam. The base of the mattress is a dense foam that helps isolate motion, reducing shaking from the other side of the bed. It helps you sleep more comfortably, particularly if your partner is often restless. 

Douglas Summit Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 9.2/10

Memory foam has a habit of retaining heat, making it uncomfortable to sleep if you suffer from night sweats. Thankfully, the Douglas Summit doesn’t contain any memory foam. Its layers act in the same way but are made to retain less heat and promote better airflow than standard memory foam. Heat barely built up in this mattress when we mapped it with our equipment and dissipated quickly enough that we don’t anticipate it being a problem for most Canadians.

Motion Isolation – 10/10

As an all-foam mattress, we expected the Douglas Summit to return good motion isolation scores. However, we were blown away by how well it was able to isolate motion through our simulation and practical tests. This mattress performed extremely well in these areas during our ball-drop and tester-led experiments, with virtually no transfer even for larger movements.

Pressure Relief- 10/10

The Douglas Summit offers some of the best scores in Canada when it comes to pressure relief. The thick comfort layers stop any strong pushback from the mattress itself, leading to better outcomes for those who struggle with pressure points. Testers agreed that they woke up comfortable no matter which position they slept in.

Ease of Movement – 9.9/10

It’s easy to move on the surface of the Douglas Summit, thanks to the memory foam and latex alternative materials used in its construction. These materials reform extremely quickly, so you won’t have to struggle to change position in the middle of the night. Our testers noted that there was no resistance to movement when they slept.

Who is the Douglas Summit For? 

• Canadians who sleep hot. While the temperature control on this mattress isn’t the greatest, it’s the best for those who don’t need extreme cooling properties. If you sleep hot occasionally, this mattress can help.
• Side sleepers. Side sleepers need great pressure relief. The comfort layers of the Douglas Summit are thick enough to prevent pressure points for most sleepers, including heavier side sleepers.
• Couples and restless partners. The Douglas Summit performed better than most of the other mattresses on our list when it came to motion isolation. Your restless partner isn’t going to wake you up. 

Who Should Avoid the Douglas Summit?

• Canadians who want more bounce. The Douglas Summit performs near-perfectly in most categories across the board. The one area where it doesn’t perform as well is bounce. If you prefer more feedback from your mattress, this may not be the option for you.

Alternative Option

Bounce is the only area where the Douglas Summit may be able to improve. However, bounce is sacrificed in this instance to reduce motion isolation. If you want a mattress that doesn’t offer the best motion isolation but has great bounce, consider the Logan & Cove Frontier. It’s a hybrid with strong support and more feedback.

Best Luxury Hybrid – Logan & Cove Frontier

• Temperature Control: 9.2/10
• Motion Isolation: 7.1/10
• Edge Support: 9.7/10
• Pressure Relief: 9.4/10
• Bounce: 9.0/10
• Eco: 9.2/10
• Response: 9.0/10
• Ease of Movement: 9.3/10
• Policies: 9.5/10

Highlights

• Comfortable Euro-top section for additional plushness
• Good temperature control and breathability
• Strong edge support for those who sleep or sit near the edge

The Logan & Cove Frontier is a luxury hybrid that offers a plush Euro-top section to get you to sleep faster. It performs well for edge support and pressure relief, and it also offers more feedback in terms of bounce. To do this, it sacrifices some motion isolation, which makes it a little more uncomfortable for couples who are often restless. However, the mattress is easy to move around on and great at keeping you comfortable and well-supported regardless.

Logan & Cove Frontier Mattress Construction

• Quilted Euro-Top Cover. The Logan & Cove Frontier uses a quilted Euro-top, which features a few layers of materials to increase plushness. Among these are the CryoFusion Nanofibres woven into the fabric of the cover itself, as well as a layer of hollow fibre fill and a layer of cooling gel foam. Together, these materials increase breathability and create a softer sleeping surface. 
• 1” ecoLuxe Gel Foam. The top foam layer within the mattress is a cooling memory foam with less carbon input than standard memory foam. This foam reduces heat throughout the mattress but also adds a measure of softness. It wicks away heat so you feel comfortable throughout the night.
• 1” Aeroduct Micro Coils. The middle of the mattress features the first of two coil layers. The Aeroduct Micro Coils facilitate better pressure relief overall, contouring to your body more effectively for a better experience overall. 
• 1 ⅝” Elastex Foam. A transition layer of Elastex foam separates the coil layers. This foam helps with some motion isolation, but it also makes the mattress more responsive. This layer reduces pressure from the mattress so you don’t form pressure points. Elastex is a latex alternative that retains the properties of natural latex to reduce discomfort. 
• 9” Pocket Coil Support Layer. The core of the mattress uses thick, dense pocket coils that are individually wrapped to prevent some motion transfer. These coils compress individually to create a better support profile. They are also zoned, with firmer coils in the centre of the mattress to reduce strain.

Logan & Cove Frontier Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 9.2/10

If you sleep hot, you aren’t alone. Many Canadians wake up too hot, and their mattresses might be to blame. The Logan & Cove Frontier uses breathable materials and cooling foams to reduce heat, improving how well it vents off after building up. This means that you’ll suffer fewer night sweats and stay overall more comfortable than you might expect.

Motion Isolation – 7.1/10

One of the areas where the Logan & Cove Frontier doesn’t quite stack up is motion isolation. The coils are great for support, but they also allow excess movement to transfer across the surface. In both our simulation tests (using a weighted ball) and our practical tests (using testers on each side of the bed), this mattress showed significant vibration and movement with even the smallest motions.

Pressure Relief- 9.4/10

The softer surface of the Logan & Cove Frontier, provided by the Euro-top section, makes it a great option for those who need pressure relief. The mico-coils also help the mattress contour to your body, reducing strain by providing unique support and a reduced pressure map. Our testers who normally suffered from pressure points found themselves more comfortable than anticipated on this mattress.

Ease of Movement – 9.3/10

The micro-coils and responsive materials used within the Logan & Cove Frontier make it easy to move around on the surface. Usually, a softer sleep surface makes it more difficult to change positions and move around. However, this isn’t the case with the Frontier. A quick response time meant that our testers could change position with minimal effort, even after laying in the same spot for hours.

Who is the Logan & Cove Frontier For? 

• Canadians who sleep warm. The cooling features within the Logan & Cove Frontier focus on heat isolation and breathability, ideal for those who often wake up uncomfortably warm. 
• Edge sleepers. The edges of the mattress feature stronger coils, reducing sagging when you sit or sleep near the edge of the bed.
• Eco-conscious Canadians. The layers of foam used within the Logan & Cove Frontier are eco-conscious when compared to standard memory foam and latex.

Who Should Avoid the Logan & Cove Frontier?

• Light sleepers. This mattress does little to reduce motion transfer, so couples and those who wake up with every movement should find an option that isolates motion better.

Alternative Option

The Logan and Cove Frontier doesn’t perform well when it comes to motion isolation. The coils move too freely to stop any motion from rippling to the other side of the bed, which can lead to some uncomfortable circumstances for restless sleepers. If you want a hybrid that does isolate motion well, consider the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus.

Best Specialty Foams – Emma Hybrid Premium Plus

• Temperature Control: 9.2/10
• Motion Isolation: 10/10
• Edge Support: 9.0/10
• Pressure Relief: 8.7/10
• Bounce: 9.6/10
• Eco: 7.0/10
• Response: 9.7/10
• Ease of Movement: 9.6/10
• Policies: 9/10

Highlights

• Extreme motion isolation for couples with restless partners
• Specialty foam layers help create a unique feel
• Upgraded cover improves breathability and temperature control

The Emma Hybrid Premium Plus offers the same comfortable construction as the Emma Hybrid Premium mattress. However, it features an upgraded cover that improves breathability. The upgrade is free, so there is no reason to not choose this option, especially if you normally sleep hot. This mattress features a layer of comfortable foams that reduce pressure and heat, helping you stay cool and comfortable throughout the night.

Emma Hybrid Premium Plus Mattress Construction

• Ultra-Dry Cover. The cover of the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus is an upgrade from the standard cover available in the Emma Hybrid Premium mattress. It features better cooling and helps wick away heat to reduce night sweats. It’s also removable and washable, so you can easily refresh your mattress.
• 0.75” Thermosync Foam. A thin layer of foam is infused with graphite. It uses this natural infusion to get the heat away from you, conducting it away and neutralizing it to help refresh your mattress.
• 0.5” AirgoCell Foam. Open-cell elastic foam comes next, with a formula that doesn’t allow heat to build up. It’s extremely breathable, cycling cooler air up through the mattress.
• 0.5” MemoryAdapt Foam. This specialty memory foam contours to your body to reduce pressure, reduce motion, and distribute your weight evenly.
• 0.75” HRX Foam. This supportive foam elevates you out of the firmer coil layer, with a unique support map that adapts to your body. 
• 8” Pocket Coil Layer. A layer of thick edge-to-edge sprocket coils helps support you, aligning your body and reducing strain. They are firmer where you need them and softer where they need to relieve pressure.
• 3.5” Support Foam. A foundation layer of high-density support foam helps the mattress keep its shape for longer. You’ll feel less motion transfer because of this layer, and your mattress will feel comfortable for longer.

Emma Hybrid Premium Plus Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 9.2/10

The cooling foams used at the top of this mattress reduce heat and vent it quickly when it builds up. The coils are extremely breathable, pushing cooler air up through the layers and driving away heat. While this mattress allows some heat to build up, it doesn’t let it settle for long. The layers are extremely breathable.

Motion Isolation – 10/10

Despite being a hybrid mattress that uses pocket coils in the base, the Emma offers amazing motion isolation. The layers of foam, including the 3.5” Support Foam at the base, help isolate any movement from the other side of the bed. Practical testers didn’t feel anything from the other side of the bed, even with larger motions. Simulation tests with weighted balls returned similar results.

Pressure Relief – 8.7/10

Pressure relief is one of the areas where the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus could improve. The comfort layers are thinner than you might expect, especially because there are so many distinct materials. As a result, most sleepers will experience some pressure and may even develop pressure points. Our heavier testers had the worst time with this mattress when it came to pressure.

Ease of Movement – 9.6/10

The layers of proprietary foams allow for easy movement across the surface of the mattress. High-density foams and supportive elements keep you lifted out of the mattress and respond quickly. As a result, you won’t feel stuck in place, even if you’ve been in the same position for a while. Our testers mentioned that they felt no resistance when changing positions.

Who is the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus For? 

• Couples with restless partners. Despite being a hybrid mattress, the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus has surprisingly strong motion isolation. Those with restless partners can sleep comfortably with almost no motion isolation.
• Canadians who sleep warm. The temperature control features and breathability within the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus make it ideal for those who sleep warm.
• Combination and active sleepers. If you move around a lot at night, you may need a mattress that doesn’t make you feel stuck. It’s easy to move around on the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus thanks to its responsive materials.

Who Should Avoid the Emma Hybrid Premium Plus?

• Heavier sleepers. Canadians who need better pressure relief should avoid this mattress, as it offers less pressure relief than most other options on our list.

Best Eco-Conscious – Simba 2500 

• Temperature Control: 9.1/10
• Motion Isolation: 9.8/10
• Edge Support: 8.8/10
• Pressure Relief: 9.2/10
• Bounce: 9.4/10
• Eco: 9.5/10
• Response: 8.1/10
• Ease of Movement: 8.0/10
• Policies: 8/10

Highlights

• Outstanding motion isolation thanks to the zoned foam base
• Eco-conscious materials help reduce carbon footprint
• Great bounce for those who prefer a bit of feedback from the mattress

The Simba 2500 is the midline mattress available from the Simba Hybrid line. While this mattress is a little less eco-conscious than the Simba Green line, it still uses eco-conscious materials. Layers of foam and a layer of contouring micro-coils create a unique sleep space that isolates heat and motion well. This mattress also offers a good bit of bounce, which is perfect for those who need their mattress to respond to their movements.

Simba 2500 Mattress Construction

• Breathable Sleep Surface. The cover of the Simba 2500 is hand-knitted and hypoallergenic. The surface of the mattress remains cool, fresh, and comfortable because of this soft cover.
• Open-Cell Graphite Infused Simbatex. The first layer of foam is an open-cell construction infused with graphite. The infusion and structural features of this memory foam help reduce heat by increasing airflow and conducting heat away from you as you sleep.
• Aerocoil Spring-Comfort Layer. A layer of Aerocoil conical springs provides better contouring for your body, increased airflow, and better pressure relief. This layer also helps the layers below provide the best possible support.
• Edge to Edge Simba-Pure Support. A transitional layer of foam uses Edge Lift technology, which provides the same support from one edge of the mattress to the other. This layer also helps reduce motion transfer and cushions deep pressure points.
• Zoned Simba-Pure Base. The base of the mattress uses thick polyfoam, which is separated into comfort zones. The base adjusts as you change position thanks to the strategic collapse points. Because of these points, the support layer can align your spine exactly how you need it to remain comfortable.

Simba 2500 Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 9.1/10

Temperature control is important for most Canadians, as a majority say they sleep hot some of the time. Thankfully, the open-cell construction of the top layer of foam and the breathable coils help prevent most heat from building up within the core of the mattress. Our heat mapping tests showed that there was little chance for heat to build up, as the materials isolated and removed heat fairly easily.

Motion Isolation – 9.8/10

Becuase the coils in the Simba 2500 are conical micro-coils, they don’t transfer motion as well as standard pocket coils. As a result, the mattress dampens movement more readily than other options on our list. The supportive foam base reduces any vibrations from the other side of the bed, and only the largest motions can be detected. Our simulation tests and practical tests returned similar favourable results in this category.

Pressure Relief- 9.2/10

The contouring micro-coil layer in the centre of the mattress is great for pressure relief. This part of the mattress shapes itself to fit your body, providing relief where you need it. The base, which is zoned for the best possible alignment and support, also helps here. Testers mentioned that they felt adequately supported without any additional pressure from the mattress. 

Ease of Movement – 8.0/10

The materials used throughout this mattress contour to your body, but they do not facilitate movement like some of the other options we’ve found. While this mattress does a great job elsewhere, it suffers when it comes to ease of movement. Testers felt stuck in the mattress when they tried to move, and it took more effort than we preferred to get into a different position. The materials respond slower than average, which may play a role in how this mattress acts.

Who is the Simba 2500 For? 

• Side sleepers. If you sleep on your side, pressure relief is important. This mattress performs well when it comes to pressure relief, so there is less strain on your body overall.
• Light sleepers. Lighter sleepers, particularly those who need a mattress with better motion isolation, will find that this mattress helps them stay asleep.
• Canadians who sleep warm. The temperature control materials within the Simba 2500 mattress are great for those who sleep a little warm.

Who Should Avoid the Simba 2500?

• Active sleepers. If you need to move around a lot as you sleep, the Simba 2500 might not be the right option for you. This mattress responds slowly and doesn’t offer great responsiveness.

It also retains the great motion isolation found here, so it shouldn’t be too much of a difference for couples with restless partners.

Best Cooling – Octave Horizon

• Temperature Control: 9.4/10
• Motion Isolation: 8.5/10
• Edge Support: 8.9/10
• Pressure Relief: 9.8/10
• Bounce: 7.8/10
• Eco: 9.0/10
• Response: 9.8/10
• Ease of Movement: 9.5/10
• Policies: 10/10

Highlights

• Offers extreme pressure relief, ideal for heavier side sleepers
• Materials respond quickly so you can move into a more comfortable position
• Cooling features reduce temperature quickly so you can sleep better

The Octave Horizon is Octave’s top-tier mattress. It uses multiple layers of comfort and cooling foam to reduce discomfort as you sleep. You’ll get some of the best temperature control on the Canadian market with this mattress, as well as strong response and outstanding pressure relief. Plus, this mattress offers it all at an affordable price, making it a standout queen mattress for Canadians.

Octave Horizon Mattress Construction

• CryoFusion Cooling Cover. A powerful cooling cover begins the construction of this mattress. The cover is a soft material that is woven with CryoFusion nanofibres. These fibres wick away heat and moisture to keep you comfortable and content throughout the night.
• 2.5” CopperGel Memory Foam. The top layer of foam is infused with copper to conduct heat away from you. This thick, comfortable layer also helps relieve pressure. Between the cover and the top layer of foam are bands of PolarMAX, a phase-changing material that aims to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the night.
• 1.5” Aerated Latex. A layer of latex helps the mattress remain responsive and eliminates the quicksand feeling of memory foam. Thousands of tiny perforations increase breathability for a cooler mattress overall.
• 2” ecoLuxe Cooling Foam. ecoLuxe cooling foam helps reduce heat, moving it to the coolest parts of the mattress so it doesn’t build up under you. This layer is made with less carbon input than standard memory foam.
• 2” Elastex Foam. A layer of latex alternative foam provides some cushion for the coil layer. This material is extremely responsive and comfortable, keeping you lifted out of the mattress and cushioning deep pressure points.
• 6” Support Foam. The thick support foam base uses air channels to direct hot air away from you. This layer also helps with support, alignment, and overall comfort beyond what the layers above can provide.

Octave Horizon Mattress Performance Scores

Temperature Control – 9.4/10

Phase-changing material, aerated latex, cooling foams, and more combine to reduce heat build-up throughout the mattress. If you often sleep hot, this mattress may help you sleep cooler. During our heat-mapping tests, we noticed that heat didn’t have a chance to build up within the mattress. The various cooling measures quickly dealt with any heat that presented itself.

Motion Isolation – 8.5/10

It was surprising to us that this mattress didn’t perform well when it came to motion isolation. Our practical tests left our testers feeling a little uncomfortable, while simulation tests revealed that quite a bit of vibration could be felt from the other side of the mattress. These issues were bad enough to be notable, particularly for those who wake up easily and often.

Pressure Relief- 9.8/10

Thick comfort layers lead to better pressure relief, reducing discomfort and improving outcomes across the board. This mattress offers some of the thickest comfort layers we’ve seen, so, of course, it provides a better defence against pressure. Testers noted that they woke feeling refreshed and without some of their typical discomforts because of the more comfortable materials.

Ease of Movement – 9.5/10

The materials used throughout the Octave Horizon respond quickly, rushing to reform when you move out of an indent. Our testers went a few rounds with the mattress, and each time they noted that it was easy to move around. Even after they lay in the same spot for a long time, moving didn’t require any additional effort. They could resettle and get comfortable again with minimal issues.

Who is the Octave Horizon For? 

• Active Canadians. It’s easy to move around on the surface of the Octave Horizon, making it ideal for those who often change positions in the middle of the night.
• Those who need pressure relief. Thick comfort layers reduce pressure and discomfort, so you can sleep well regardless of how long you stay in one position. Side sleepers will love the way this mattress feels.
• Hot sleepers. The temperature control features isolate heat and move it away from you, providing some of the best conditions for those who typically sleep hot.

Who Should Avoid the Octave Horizon?

• Couples and restless partners. If you wake up at every little movement, the Octave Horizon might not be the best option for you. It doesn’t isolate motion as well as we hoped.
