In this review, we’ll explore the pros and cons of the Bloom Mist mattress and show how it ranked in our lab performance tests.

We conduct a series of tests in our performance lab for every mattress we review before ranking them in specific categories important to consumers. When shopping for mattresses, it helps to understand how mattresses are evaluated for features like temperature regulation, motion isolation, and edge support so you can make accurate comparisons. Our number scores are based on a scale of 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating the best performance in each category.

Mattress Details

The Bloom Mist mattress is a foam mattress manufactured in China and sold in Canada by Sleep Country. While you can shop for the Bloom Mist at any retail Sleep Country location, it’s not generally carried in stores. Still, with fast free shipping from their warehouses, it typically arrives at your home within a few days.

It’s nice that the company offers a choice between standard delivery and Green Glove delivery, which includes a complete setup in the room of your choice. Green Glove delivery is an upgrade that includes removing your old mattress and the shipping materials.

Most people take a few weeks to a month to know if their new mattress is right, and with the 100-day sleep trial offered with the Bloom Mist mattress, most people have plenty of time to know if this is the right mattress for them. You can return it to any location within this period or call them to arrange for a pickup. The Bloom Mist also comes with a 10-year warranty.

Bloom Mist Mattress Prices and Sizes

The Bloom Mist mattress is available in several sizes. This model falls in the middle price range in the Bloom Mattress Collection.

Mattress Construction

The Bloom Mist foam mattress has three layers of foam encased by a washable cover.

• The Cover: The Bloom Mist cover is made of organic cotton infused with copper to provide enhanced cooling and antimicrobial properties. It’s soft, smooth, and easy to wash and replace.
• The 1st Layer: The top layer is a 1 inch thick layer of gel infused memory foam, which provides pressure relief and moves heat away from your body. Gel foam is considerably better at regulating temperature than regular memory foam.
• The 2nd Layer: A second 1 inch layer of gel memory foam adds to the comfort of the Bloom Mist mattress. It helps neutralize temperature and provides pressure point relief. 
• The 3rd Layer: The bottom layer is a 7 inch supportive base layer made with bamboo charcoal-infused foam. Air channels in this base layer help the mattress stay cool, and the charcoal helps absorb odours and moisture from everyday use.

The Bloom Mist mattress is one of five models in the Bloom Mattress Collection by Sleep Country. With all these choices, there’s a Bloom mattress for every budget, sleep style, and room in your home.

• Bloom River Mattress. $399.00- $699.00
• Bloom Earth Mattress. $479.00- $799.00
• Bloom Mist Mattress. $679.00- $1,029.00
• Bloom Air Mattress. $799.00- $1,199.00
• Bloom Cloud Mattress. $879.00- $1,379.00

The Bloom Mist mattress falls in the middle of the collection, offering an excellent blend of comfort and affordability.

The Bloom Mist combines comfort and affordability, making it an excellent budget mattress. Here’s a description of how we ranked the Bloom Mist in each category.

Our temperature control rating reflects how well a mattress keeps you cool throughout the night. We test materials for breathability and evaluate the effectiveness of cooling technologies, looking at factors like heat retention and airflow within the mattress. While most sleepers will be comfortable on a mattress with a temperature control rating of at least 5 out of 10, hot sleepers and people prone to night sweats need a mattress that ranks 7 or higher.

The Bloom Mist mattress has three features contributing to enhanced temperature regulation: a breathable core of bamboo charcoal foam, a gel memory foam layer, and a copper-infused cotton cover. In our performance tests, heat maps showed that these features dissipated heat and neutralized the temperature of the mattress. A commendable score of 8 makes the Bloom Mist a good choice for hot sleepers. People prone to night sweats appreciate the soft, washable cotton cover.

We test mattresses by having couples or people with pets try them at home. We also use ball drop tests and monitors to determine how much motion is transferred from one side of the mattress to the other. Then, we combine the reviews and test results to extrapolate a score. We recommend a motion isolation score of at least 7 out of 10 for most couples–even solitary sleepers can benefit from a score of 6 or higher.

Both couples and single sleepers appreciate Bloom Mist’s ability to isolate motion. Our testers revealed that they weren’t bothered by the movement of their restless sleep partners when sleeping on the Bloom Mist mattress. Foam mattresses usually perform well in motion isolation tests. In our tests, and with a medium firmness level, the Bloom Mist mattress proved it absorbs movement well.

A mattress’s edge support is important because it allows people to use their entire bed. Many Canadians like to sleep and sit on the edge of the bed, and good edge support also allows people to sit on the edge without feeling like they will slip off. Because all foam mattresses lack built-in edge support, they commonly rank about 5 out of 10 in this category. In contrast, hybrid mattresses with pocketed coils and edge support often rank about 7 out of 10.

Foam mattresses are known to lack edge support, and the Bloom Mist mattress scored lower in this area than any other, especially with average and heavy sleepers. If you like to sleep or sit on the edge of the bed, the Bloom Mist mattress may not be a great choice for you.

Firmness and Feel of the Bloom Mist Mattress

The Bloom Mist mattress is a good choice for people who like a mattress with medium firmness. We rated this mattress 5.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale since it’s a bit on the softer side than other foam mattresses. The Bloom River is just one example of a foam mattress that rates higher on the firmness scale at 7 out of 10.

While the bamboo foam support core provides plenty of firmness, the top two layers of gel memory foam give this mattress a soft, cushiony feel. Overall, this mattress strikes a good balance between firmness, support, and comfort, especially for people who prefer a softer mattress. We recommend it for light and average sleepers. Heavy sleepers who need more support may be more comfortable with a firmer foam mattress.

Performance for Different Weights and Sleeping Preferences

The firmness of a mattress affects how it performs for sleepers of various weights in different positions. Some people already know the level of firmness they like in a mattress, while others need more information. That’s why our mattress review analyzes the firmness of a mattress in conjunction with a sleeper’s weight and position.

Weight Considerations

Most foam mattresses, including the Bloom Mist, work best for people who are light or average sleepers. Our performance tests showed that lighter sleepers find the Bloom Mist mattress is soft and comfortable, providing adequate support without giving them the feeling that they are sinking into the mattress.

Heavy sleepers over 230 pounds enjoyed the comfort and pressure point relief the Bloom Mist mattress offers in the side sleeping position. However, they find it too soft when sleeping on their back or stomach. We recommend that sleepers weighing more than 230 pounds find a firmer mattress with more support.

Sleeping Positions

Because different sleeping positions require various levels of support, it’s essential to understand your preferred sleeping method when choosing a mattress. We tried various sleeping positions on the Bloom Mist mattress, and here’s what we found:

• Side Sleepers: With two layers of 1 inch gel memory foam on top of the 7 inch support foam core, the Bloom Mist is a good choice for light and average side sleepers. It provides enough support for good spinal alignment and ample cushion to relieve shoulder and hip pressure points. Heavy side sleepers over 230 pounds were comfortable, but the Mist didn’t offer enough hip support for proper spinal alignment.
• Back Sleepers: While the medium firmness of the Bloom Mist is best for side sleepers, it works well for light and average back sleepers. Heavy back sleepers find their hips sink too far into the mattress for optimal comfort.
• Stomach Sleepers: Most all-foam mattresses are not the best for strictly stomach sleepers. However, the Bloom Mist offered plenty of support for light sleepers who primarily sleep in the stomach position. If you’re a stomach sleeper under 130 pounds and you like a medium mattress, the Bloom Mist is a good choice. It’s not recommended for heavy sleepers who prefer to sleep on their stomach.
• Combo Sleepers: For light and average sleepers, the Bloom Mist mattress offers adequate comfort and support for a wide range of sleeping positions. While it’s not as responsive as some other foam mattresses we tried, it scores high in motion isolation, making it a good choice for restless sleepers who frequently switch positions.

Delivery, Sleep Trials, & Returns

Sleep Country offers free shipping for all orders over $75, so you can enjoy this benefit whether you’re purchasing a new mattress or shopping for bedding. Your new Bloom mattress is shipped via courier, such as Fed Ex, UPS, Canada-Post, and others. You can also choose to upgrade your delivery at checkout to Green Glove delivery, which includes complete setup and removal of your old mattress. For returns, you can either drop your mattress off at a retail location or the company will pick it up from your home.

While Sleep Country offers a slightly different return process than other Canadian mattress companies, their customer service is responsive, whether you’re calling, chatting online, or visiting one of their retail locations. The 100 night sleep trial period is more than adequate to determine if you like the mattress, but it’s important to know that your refund will come as in-store credit, and you will be charged a $65 exchange fee. Still, with over 50 mattresses to choose from at Sleep Country, this isn’t a problem for most people.

• Shipping Cost: Free
• Time to Delivery: 2-7 business days
• Courier: Various with upgrade to Green Glove delivery available
• Sleep Trial Length: 100 nights
• Warranty: 10 years
• Ease of Return: Company picks up, in-store credit

Sleep Country Company Background

Sleep Country is a leading mattress retailer in Canada, with over 250 stores nationwide. In business since 1994, it’s well-known for its radio jingle “Sleep Country Canada, why buy a mattress anywhere else, ding!” Sleep Country offers several popular mattress brands at their retail locations, including Sealy, Serta, and Tempur-Pedic.

The Bloom Mattress Collection is Sleep Country’s own line of bed-in-a-box mattresses, created by sleep experts to offer a range of affordable foam mattresses at different price points. It’s one of the top-selling bed-in-a-box foam mattresses in Canada.

Commitment to the Environment

Sleep Country is Canada’s only leading mattress retailer to offer a certified pre-owned mattress program. Through the company’s Certified Pre-Owned Model (CPM) program, returned mattresses undergo a strict six-point inspection and deep sanitation process and are then offered for sale at significantly reduced prices.

Any products that don’t qualify for resale are either upcycled through donations or recycled to keep them out of landfills. In one year, Sleep Country donated over 32,000 mattresses and kept another 122,000 out of landfills through recycling.

Competing Canadian Mattress Comparisons

In this section, we’ll take a look at how the Bloom Mist mattress compares to two other popular mattresses made in Canada, the Endy and Douglas mattresses.

Bloom Mist vs. Endy Mattress

The Endy mattress is another bed-in-a-box Canadian-made all-foam mattress similar to those in the Bloom Collection. It has 10 inches of foam, while the Bloom Mist has only 9 inches. However, with several Bloom mattresses to choose from, it’s easy to find one that compares more closely to the Endy, such as the 10.5-inch Bloom Cloud.

When it comes to price, the Bloom Mist, at $779 for a queen-sized mattress, beats Endy’s price of $895. The Bloom Mist and Endy mattresses have comparable 100-day sleep trials, but the Endy offers a slightly better 15-year warranty. Another factor to consider is that Bloom mattresses are manufactured in China, while Endy mattresses are made in Canada.

Bloom Mist vs. Douglas Mattress

The original Douglas is another Canadian bed-in-a-box mattress. Like the Endy, it’s made and sold in Canada. At 10 inches, it’s comparable to the Bloom Mist but is slightly firmer. Both mattresses have washable covers, but the Douglas brand focuses on cooling technologies and offers a CoolSense® Cover made with renewable materials.

The Douglas queen mattress costs $799, which is essentially the same as the Bloom Mist price tag of $779. However, the Douglas brand offers a generous 20-year warranty, 365-day sleep trial, and cash refunds.

Should You Buy a Bloom Mist Mattress?

There are several reasons to consider a Bloom Mist mattress. Many Sleep Country customers are dedicated to the company because they offer exceptional customer service and have many retail locations. We recommend all the mattresses in the Bloom Collection for sleepers who already know the level of firmness they prefer in a mattress.

Highlights of the Bloom Mist Mattress

The Bloom Mist mattress is easy to order and ships quickly. It’s a good quality, affordable mattress backed by Sleep Country’s excellent customer service. With its washable organic cotton cover and top layers of gel memory foam, it provides adequate cooling and comfort for most sleepers.

Areas for Improvement

While it’s nice to know that you can return your mattress to any one of the 250 brick and mortar locations, Sleep Country’s return policies aren’t as easy to deal with as its competitors. Even though the 100-night sleep trial is more than adequate to determine if a bed is right for you, with the $65 exchange fee and in-store credit, it’s a less desirable policy than other brands of similar quality mattresses.

Our Recommendations for the Bloom Mist Mattress

We recommend the Bloom Mist mattress for light and average sleepers who already know what level of firmness they want in a mattress. Its better-than-average motion isolation makes it a good choice for couples and restless sleepers, and the Bloom Mist mattress offers plenty of comfort and support for back and side sleepers.

If you’re a heavy sleeper over 230 pounds, the Mist is probably not the right mattress for you, but with several other mattresses in the Bloom Mattress Collection to choose from, it’s easy for customers to find one that matches their needs.

FAQ’s
