Without further ado, our Tempurpedic Mattress Review:

Company Overview	Tempurpedic
Launched:	1992
Price (Queen):	$2,599 USD $3,239 CAD

Trial length:	Dependent on retailer
Warranty:	10 years

Tempurpedic did not start out as a mattress company. In fact, Tempurpedic was originally contacted by NASA to develop aircraft seat cushions. In 2012, Tempurpedic merged with the Sealy Corporation to combine resources and become the world’s largest bedding company. Tempurpedic was often considered the gold standard in memory foam mattresses. But in recent years, companies like Octave began manufacturing memory foam mattresses with similar features and enhanced cooling technologies, compressed and shipped in a box directly to customers’ home for nearly half the cost.

The Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme was delivered to us in a very reasonable time frame. The mattress used in this review was ordered at a local Sleep Country mattress store on a Thursday afternoon and the mattress was delivered on the following Monday morning.

Mattress retailers often use their own delivery service to deliver Tempurpedic mattresses. The delivery is often ‘white glove,’ which means that the mattress is delivered to the room of choice, placed on the bed, the packaging is removed, and the old mattress is taken away. 

Each mattress retailer who stocks and sells Tempurpedic mattresses may or may not offer a sleep trial. Tempurpedic doesn’t offer a sleep trial to Canadian shoppers. Also, mattress buyers in Canada who choose to purchase a Tempurpedic mattress at a retail store may incur restocking fees for returned mattresses. This is dependent on the individual retailer’s terms and conditions.

The Tempurpedic mattress is not delivered in a box. Depending on the retailer, white-glove delivery service is often included in the price of a Tempurpedic mattress.

The Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme is a combination foam mattress. By combining different foam types, densities, and firmness levels, Tempurpedic has designed a configuration that offers reasonable comfort, cooling, and support.

The Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme is one of many mattress lines Tempurpedic sell; however, this specific line of mattresses is available only in one firmness option.

Tempurpedic Mattress Layers

The Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme mattress contains four layers of foam. Like many of the memory foam mattresses on the market today, all four layers work together to provide an overall level of comfort and support.

1. The first layer of the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme mattress is 1 inch of memory foam. This comfort layer provides the initial cushion to the mattress. This layer also works with the transitional layer to alleviate pressure points and distribute body weight. 
2. The second layer of the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme mattress is another 3 inches of  memory foam. This transition layer is slower to respond and is used primarily for body contouring. 
3. The third and fourth layers are a combined 7.5 inches of support foam (2.5″ and 5″). These are the support layers which give the mattress its structure, preventing sleepers from sinking in too far.

Of note: Tempurpedic does not publicly disclose the foam density information of any layers in the Cloud Supreme mattress.

Tempurpedic Mattress Cover

The Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme mattress cover is split into two layers. The first cover layer is a combination of polyester and cotton. It is white with a unique floral pattern. The top part of the cover is machine washable and can be removed by unzipping it from the remaining fabric. The bottom part of the cover is made from polyester, which helps wick moisture and regulate temperature.

Consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious when making purchases. Retailers both in and out of the mattress industry have been incorporating more eco-friendly and ethical policies when selling products and choosing suppliers.

GoodMorning.com Inc. carried out a survey in February 2017, discovering that almost 50% of Canadians are willing to spend more money for more environmentally friendly products. Therefore, in every review on Mattress-Reviews.com, we will highlight each mattress company’s green philosophy, as well as how prominent their policies are on their websites.

Feel & Firmness

The Tempurpedic is a medium firmness mattress. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), it rated at a 5.2 / 10 on the firmness scale. The Tempurpedic mattress does have ‘hug,’ and the comfort layer feels soft as you lie down. The support foam ensures that there is no excessive sinkage.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation in foam mattresses is usually very good; it’s one of the main reasons couples make the switch from innerspring to memory foam. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme mattress performed above average in this area, scoring 7.2 / 10 on the motion isolation scale.

Edge Support

Memory foam mattresses are not known for their edge support, and the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme is no exception. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), it performed well below average for a foam mattress, ranking 1.7 / 10 on the edge support scale.

Bounce

Due to the fact that motion isolation for foam mattresses is generally very good, bounce is generally very low. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Tempurpedic mattress is rated at 1.7 / 10 for bounce, which is average for combination foam mattresses.

Remember, Mattress-Reviews.com is owned, operated, and paid for by GoodMorning.com Inc. and advertises the Octave, Douglas, Juno, and Logan & Cove brands. The following is strictly our competitive opinion:

---

Tempurpedic mattresses like the Cloud Supreme appeal mostly to mattress shopper looking to buy from a well-known company, usually by visiting a traditional mattress retail store. Overall, the Tempurpedic Cloud Supreme is a good medium firmness mattress, one which has multiple features to aid in comfort, cooling, and support.

However, is it worth the high price point? A large part of the Cloud Supreme’s low score in this review results from its high entry-level price point. Combined with the short, 30-day sleep trial and the limitations on returns and exchanges, Tempurpedic has a difficult time justifying its value to the customer versus lower-cost memory foam brands that ship their mattresses compressed in a box.

Mattress-Reviews.com recommends looking to other memory foam mattress brands that offer a comparable product for less. One such competitor is Octave. The Octave is available in Canada. It contains specialty memory foam and costs up to 70% less than Tempurpedic. And for shoppers who don’t want any outside pressure in their buying decision, the Octave does not require negotiations with mattress salesman.

Octave mattresses are also are engineered using leading-edge cooling features like a CryoFusion™ cooling nanofibre cover, heat-dissipating copper-infused memory foam, and phase-change material to offer an unmatched experience of coolness and comfort.
