Logan & Cove Frontier Mattress Review

Upgraded Luxury Hybrid with Comfort in Mind

The Logan & Cove Frontier is a Canadian-made hybrid mattress billed as a luxury Euro-top. This mattress is made with high-quality materials and presented at an affordable price, especially considering what it offers. There are a few features that stand out here: this mattress offers great lumbar support, temperature control, and edge support. The Logan & Cove Frontier is the upgraded mattress from the company, which also stocks the much more basic Logan & Cove Choice. 

Our team recommends the Frontier for those who need better cooling, lumbar support, and edge support as well. It uses eco-conscious foams and a host of high-quality, proprietary materials. However, it’s also great for those who need a more luxurious experience on a budget. It offers a 365-night sleep trial and a 15-year warranty, so you have plenty of time to see if it’s right for you. 

Our Methodology

All of our mattresses are ranked based on features that most Canadians look for in a mattress. During our evaluation processes, we look at each mattress critically. We look at the materials used, their construction, cooling properties, and motion isolation. We also take a look at how supported the edges are, because this is a really important factor for a range of Canadians. 

Our evaluation process consists of several comprehensive tests, including practical and simulated components. We look at how each mattress will react under a variety of conditions, including methods for testing pressure relief, motion isolation, and firmness. Our team of testers, experts, and researchers go above and beyond to help us achieve a composite of accurate results. This means we are completely confident in our recommendations to you.

Mattress Details

If the Logan & Cove Choice sounds good to you, the Frontier will sound even better. This luxury hybrid comes at an affordable price for most Canadians, but it uses high-quality materials to reduce discomfort and keep you comfortable throughout the night. Strong lumbar support from the bottom layer of zoned coils pairs well with the contouring of the micro-coil layer. Together, they provide excellent pressure relief, as well as strong support. 

The Euro-top section at the top of the mattress uses hollow fibre fill, quilted gel foam, and a cooling cover to add additional plushness to the mattress. This layer is almost an inch thick and makes a surprising difference when it comes to how the mattress feels. Though the Logan & Cove Fronter is a medium-firm mattress, the top of the mattress feels plusher on this option. Our testers, who sleep in a variety of different positions, found that this mattress offered more relief from pressure. 

One of the only areas where the Logan & Cove Frontier could improve is motion isolation. This mattress doesn’t do much to stop motion as it happens. This means that you will be able to feel it when your partner tosses and turns. The movement will transfer across the mattress, so you will wake up to larger motions. The transition layer dampens some smaller movements, but the larger movements are unavoidable. 

The Logan & Cove Frontier offers a 365-night trial, so you have a full year from the time you purchase to try it out. This is a risk-free trial where returns are accepted and extremely easy. All Logan & Cove mattresses, as well as all mattresses from other companies sold under the Goodmorning.com umbrella, are made and sold exclusively in Canada. A 15-year warranty protects you from defects and ensures that your purchase is protected.

Logan & Cove Frontier Prices and Sizes

The Logan & Cove Frontier is a luxury hybrid mattress, but it won’t break the bank. When compared to other luxury mattresses throughout Canada, this mattress offers a good value for what it offers. A Queen, the most popular size, is $1299. This is comparable with high-quality foam mattresses. 

Despite the price, you’ll find a host of great features and high-quality materials. Most materials used in this mattress are eco-conscious, with fewer chemicals used in their creation. This mattress also offers strong edge support, great temperature control, and pressure relief. The top is soft and plush, with better outcomes for those who appreciate a softer top with strong, zoned support below.

The Logan & Cove Frontier is offered in all six standard mattress sizes, as well as Split King. Split King is the best option for Canadians with adjustable beds, as it provides two Twin XL for split adjustable frames. 

Mattress Construction

The Logan & Cove Frontier Hybrid uses a Euro-top cover section, as well as layers of foam and microcoils for comfort. These layers work well on top of the pocket coil base. 

• Euro-Top Cover: The cover is quilted right into the Euro-top section. The fabric is soft and comfortable, but the rest of this section makes the mattress stand out. This layer is almost an inch thick and is made with a cooling fabric (infused with CryoFusion nanofibres), hollow fibre fill, and a layer of quilted gel foam.
• EcoLuxe Cooling Gel Foam: The top layer is a cushioning layer of cooling gel ecoLuxe. This foam mimics the properties of high-density memory foam, with greater pressure relief. It actively removes heat from the mattress, so those who suffer from night sweats can get a bit of relief.
• Aeroduct Micro Coils: Here you’ll find the first coil layer, which is made with Aeroduct Micro Coils. These coils reduce pressure, contouring your body to provide relief where you need it most. These coils are also breathable, circulating cool air through the mattress to reduce heat build-up.
• Latex Alternative Transition Layer: A transition layer of Elastex, a latex alternative, keeps the coil layers separated. This layer cushions pressure points and reduces motion transfer, though its effects are limited. It helps keep you elevated out of the pocket coil layer, reducing discomfort for most sleepers.
• Pocket Coil Layer: The bottom layer of the Frontier features 9” pocket coils, which are individually wrapped for additional comfort. The coils are zoned, with firmer coils throughout the centre for firmer lumbar support. At your shoulders and knees, the coils are softer to prevent pressure points. A perimeter of firmer coils bolsters the edges of the mattress.  

This mattress has two separate coil layers. The microcoils help with pressure relief and comfort overall, while the zoned pocket coils create strong support where you need it most. Few mattresses use a combination of coil types, making the Logan & Cove Frontier somewhat unique.  

Mattress Performance and Testing

When we test a mattress, we look for the features that most Canadians prefer. We emphasize important features like temperature control, motion isolation, and edge support above all others. These features make or break our evaluation and testing process. 

Temperature Control

To test temperature control, we looked at how cool our testers were after hours of sleeping on the mattress. We used heat maps to determine if the mattress held onto heat, as well as tracking how hot the core of the mattress got during use. We took into account the construction of the mattress and any cooling features present in the materials. Warm sleepers will need a ranking of at least 6/10 to be comfortable, whereas hotter sleepers should look for higher rankings.

The Logan & Cove Frontier uses multiple layers of cooling materials to reduce heat build-up. It has a higher temperature control score than many mattresses on the Canadian market because of the unique materials, including microcoils. These help circulate cooler air up through the mattress. The combination of these coils, the pocket coil base, and the latex-alternative foam helps reduce heat at the core of the mattress. Meanwhile, the cooling cover and cooling gel foam at the top stop the immediate heat build-up on the surface. Our testing showed that heat didn’t build up too much through the core of the mattress, and what did was able to vent away quickly to reduce discomfort. 

Motion Isolation

To test for motion isolation, we conduct a series of tests to see how well motion is absorbed within the materials of the mattress. We use equipment and real-time tester results to determine how much vibration travels to the other side of the mattress. Our testers tried the mattress for a longer period and reported how they felt after longer periods of use. We recommend at least a 7/10 for undisturbed sleep, though most Canadians will need something that performs a little better if they seek motion isolation.

Motion Isolation is one of the areas where the Logan & Cove Frontier suffers. Despite the plush materials, the layers of this mattress do little to absorb motion. Most larger movements will get to the other side of the bed, even if you usually sleep through them. Our testers determined that some smaller motions were masked by the materials within the mattress, and we suspect that the double coil layers inhibit how much motion isolation is possible within the mattress.

Edge Support

Edge support is important for Canadians who sleep on or near the edge of the bed, as well as those who sit on the edge in the morning before getting up. We look at how the mattress is constructed, the materials used at the edges, and how it holds up when we apply pressure and weight there. A foam mattress typically doesn’t have great edge support, and may only achieve scores of 6/10 for edge support. Hybrid mattresses often offer reinforced parameters, which would produce a ranking of 8/10 or higher on average. 

The Logan & Cove Frontier offers some of the best edge support we’ve seen, even among other hybrid Canadian mattresses. A perimeter of firmer coils at the edge prevents most sinking and sagging. Even when we applied heavy weights, we noticed only negligible levels of sinking past what we would consider acceptable. Overall, we found that it provided stronger edge support than most of the other mattresses on the Canadian market.

Firmness and Feel of the Logan & Cove Frontier

As we look at each of the mattresses we review, we rank firmness on a scale between 1 and 10. A mattress ranked at 1 is feather soft, while a mattress ranked at 10 would be hard as a rock. We do consider input from the brand, but we use our testing results to determine how accurate that brand’s firmness ranking is. 

The Logan & Cove Frontier is rated at a 6.5, or medium firm. This rating is because it offers strong support from the zoned coil layer with a plush Euro-top section. Together, this feel makes it ideal for those who sleep on their sides, including those who need firmer lumbar support. Still, Canadians in most sleeping positions will be able to enjoy how this mattress feels.

The layers work well to contour to your body no matter how you sleep. This is especially true because of the micro-coil layer – its only function is to add this increased pressure relief, keeping you elevated out of the mattress and reducing any pushback. And though you will sink into the mattress a bit to receive the type of plushness you need, it isn’t going to feel as though you are stuck at any point. It has enough responsive features to keep you from sinking too far into the mattress.

Performance for Different Weights and Sleeping Preferences

Mattresses feel different for every sleeper, especially when you consider weight and sleeping preferences. Body type, among other factors, will determine how a mattress feels to you regardless of firmness. Here are some of the considerations for the Logan & Cove Frontier Mattress. 

Weight Considerations

The Canadian mattress industry defines an ‘average’ sleeper as someone who is less than 230 pounds but more than 170 pounds. This range helps them define how their mattress feels for the widest range of users. The Logan & Cove Frontier is good for a range of body types, though heavier sleepers may need a firmer mattress. Still, even heavier side sleepers weren’t uncomfortable after sleeping on the mattress.

The zoned support and contouring available within the mattress helped eliminate strain and discomfort for most users. It’s a thick mattress with plenty of support, so all users can get comfortable without too much hassle.

Sleeping Positions

Your sleeping position informs your needs, so knowing how a mattress will support you is important. We have testers on our team who sleep in a variety of different positions, which gives us the knowledge to assist your particular sleep style. Here’s how the Logan & Cove Frontier supports each type of sleeper.

• Side Sleepers: Side sleepers need alignment, pressure relief, and support under their hips. The Logan & Cove Frontier provides all the support and contouring that side sleepers need, especially due to the zoned coils and the micro coil support layer. It even offers enough support for heavier sleepers, because the latex alternative transition layer doesn’t allow you to sink too far into the coils.
• Back Sleepers: Back sleepers prefer a mattress that contours to them. They need better lumbar support and firmness for spinal alignment, but they need the mattress to be soft enough to keep them comfortable. The Logan & Cove Frontier offers all of these features, though it might be too firm for some who prefer a plush feel. It wins out when it comes to lumbar support, though.
• Stomach Sleepers: Stomach sleepers need a firm mattress with adequate firmness, alignment, and support. They also need the top to be plush enough to reduce strain and discomfort. Most stomach sleepers will like this mattress due to the combination of strong support and a plush top. Some side sleepers, especially those who prefer a super soft top, may need a softer mattress.
• Combo Sleepers: Combination sleepers need to change positions often throughout the night. They need adequate support for most sleeping positions, but ease of movement is also incredibly important. The Logan & Cove Frontier offers strong support, plush comfort, and a responsive feel. It’s medium-firm to support most sleeping positions, but you won’t feel stuck in the mattress. 

Delivery, Sleep Trials, & Returns

The Logan & Cove Frontier is nearly always in stock, so you can get your mattress quickly. Your mattress will ship out within the first 1 to 5 business days after you place your order but may take up to 5 additional days to arrive at your door. Shipping is free within most of Canada. The Canadian Territories require a shipping fee for the additional distance, which is around $250 per mattress. 

Each Logan & Cove mattress ships via FedEx. You won’t have to be home to receive the mattress, as you won’t have to sign for it in most cases. The mattress will be in a tall, narrow box. The mattress is tightly compressed, so you should move the box to your bedroom with the foundation already set up and ready. Cut away the plastic and the mattress will slowly expand to its intended size. 

The sleep trial for this mattress is the longest on the Canadian mattress market. You can try the mattress for a full year before deciding to keep it. They require that you keep the mattress for at least 21 days before you can initiate a return, which gives you plenty of time to adjust to it. After this period, they will pick the mattress up and issue you a full refund once it is in their possession.

• Time to Delivery: 3-9 Business Days
• Courier: FedEx Ground

Logan & Cove Frontier vs Other Logan & Cove Mattresses

Logan & Cove offers three different mattresses. The Pioneer is their upgraded model, while the Logan & Cove Choice is their basic option. 

Logan & Cove Frontier vs Logan & Cove Choice

The Logan & Cove Choice is the basic mattress model from Logan & Cove. It’s a firmer mattress that performs a little differently, with a single-zoned coil layer. It still has a Euro-top section, but it is smaller and firmer than that of the Frontier. It doesn’t provide the same level of pressure relief as the Frontier, but it offers good response and ease of movement. 

The Choice is less expensive and ranges between $200 and $400 less depending on the size. However, The Frontier offers better pressure relief and marginally more motion isolation as well. The plush surface of the mattress may be better suited for side sleepers and those who value stronger pressure relief. 

Competing Canadian Mattress Comparisons

Of course, there are a host of mattresses on the Canadian market that may be better suited for your particular sleep style. Here, we’ll look at how the Logan & Cove Frontier stacks up to similar popular Canadian mattresses, including the Silk & Snow Hybrid and the Simba 2500. 

Logan & Cove Frontier vs Silk & Snow Hybrid

The Silk & Snow Hybrid is the midline model from Silk & Snow. It’s an upgrade from their all-foam option and doesn’t offer as many features and benefits as the Silk & Snow Organic, which is more expensive. This mattress uses high-density foam and is available in three different firmness options. 

The firmness options make the Silk & Snow Hybrid a competitor for the Frontier. Though the Frontier still has the edge when it comes to pressure relief, the choice of firmness makes the Silk & Snow Hybrid a bit more desirable for certain Canadians. The Frontier offers similar edge support and a similar amount of active temperature control features, too. 

Logan & Cove Frontier vs Simba 2500 

Simba’s 2500 is its midline hybrid, a set that starts with the basic 1500 and tops out with the extremely luxurious Simba 5000. Even so, the 2500 is more expensive than the Frontier with nearly a $1000 difference when comparing the price of a Queen. It uses a host of proprietary foams, including open-cell foams, and a layer of similar microcoils.

However, the Frontier uses a zoned coil base. The Simba 2500 uses a foam support base, with zoned foam to provide better alignment and relief. When it comes to performance, the Simba 2500 offers much better motion isolation, but less cooling and worse edge support. It’s also harder to move around on top of the Simba 2500 due to the increased sinkage.

Should You Buy the Logan & Cove Frontier?

If you want a luxurious sleep experience on a budget, the Logan & Cove Frontier is likely the best you’ll find. This mattress makes its layers work for most sleepers in a variety of sleeping positions. The materials are high-quality, and the micro coil layer is a novelty that can improve pressure relief and breathability better than foam alone. It may be a better option than most of the other hybrid mattresses on the Canadian market.

The long sleep trial gives you plenty of time to try it for yourself, so you don’t have to take our word for it. The policies surrounding this trial are great, too – you don’t have to worry about a lot of details that could impact your experience with the mattress.

“We thought the price tag on a luxury mattress was too good to be true. We were pleasantly surprised at how well this mattress performed for the price. It easily outclassed our much more expensive mattress.”

FAQs

No, the cover of the Logan & Cove Frontier cannot be removed and is not washable. This is because of the quilted Euro-top section.

The Logan & Cove Frontier’s use of coil layers makes it move and vibrate a bit more than other hybrid mattresses. This might make it more difficult for couples to sleep.

The total weight capacity for the Logan & Cove Frontier is 500 pounds. This limits the capacity to about 250 pounds per sleeper, but you should also factor in bedding, blankets, and pillows.

The Logan & Cove Frontier is made with some materials that are hypoallergenic, but the mattress as a whole is not technically hypoallergenic.

Logan & Cove makes all of their mattresses right here in Canada.

Some odours may linger for up to two weeks, but the off-gassing process begins immediately and isn’t as strong as some of the other mattresses we’ve looked at.
