CR's Take
The Luxe is a foam mattress from GhostBed. Their foam mattresses are rated very good for overall comfort in our owner surveys, though the experience can vary from person to person. We tested the queen-size, which measures about 12.6 inches thick. It has a medium feel, with a firmness of about 4.0 out of 10, where 1 is very soft and 10 is very firm. It retains a typical amount of warmth and should feel comfortable for most sleepers. Its durability is excellent: After simulating about eight years of use, we measured very little change in its height or firmness. It provides very good support for back sleepers, supporting smaller sleepers slightly better than larger sleepers. It provides very good support for side sleepers, supporting smaller sleepers slightly better than larger sleepers. If you share the bed with a restless partner, it isolates motion very well, so you are unlikely to feel much movement. This mattress ships compressed in a mattress-in-a-box format, which can simplify delivery but requires time to expand after unpacking.About Consumer Reports
