The Black Hybrid medium mattress will be one of the most luxurious and comfy sleep choices in the Beautyrest mattresses collection and the medium mattress category. The bed offers a luxurious sleep feeling that fulfills the most needed requirements of all sleepers.
In addition, the 13.5 inches thick mattress is a hybrid design, combining the best of the worlds, memory foam, and pocketed coils for ultimate support and comfort.
As for the firmness, it has a medium firmness which is best suitable for average-weighted side and back sleepers. However, the other sleepers may not benefit the best from it.
The mattress provides the most sleep helps a normal sleeper looks for. This includes a relaxed, calm, breathable surface for hot sleepers, motion isolation and edge support for couples, and weight and back lumbar support. Overall, the mattress has all the advanced features that today’s sleepers seek.
However, this mattress does not work well for Combo and Stomach sleepers. So, if you are searching for a better option for overall full support regardless of the weight and sleep position factor, we recommend the Saatva Classic. The mattress has two thicknesses and three firmness levels supporting all sleepers.
Moreover, it is made of high-quality materials free of hazardous chemicals or substances. Lastly, it has an unmatchable lifetime warranty with a 365-nights trial period.
The #1 alternative we recommend
Who Do We Recommend the Beautyrest Hybrid X Class Mattress For?
- The mattress is ideal for average-weighted back and side sleepers because of its medium firmness.
- The mattress is a good choice for sleepers who sleep hot at night. It helps them to stay calm and cool throughout the night.
- The mattress is a good choice for couples who share a bed and often get in or out of bed. The mattress offers adequate motion transference resistance through its top foam layer and bottom coils support.
- The mattress has real-time edge support, so couples who share beds and fear falling off the edges due to rolling over or changing sides can rest assured that they are safe.
Who Needs to Avoid this Mattress?
- The mattress is unsuitable for heavy sleepers due to its medium firmness. Therefore, they should avoid it.
Comfort and Firmness
The Beautyrest Black Hybrid X Class mattress has a medium firmness that ranks 6 to 7 out of 10. The top comfort foam layer is supportive and helps to keep the body balanced while lying on it. Moreover, at its bottom, it features Beautyrest’s special T3 Pocketed coils that are triple-wrapped high-carbon steel with high fabric wrapping to confirm durability, conformability, and motion isolation. This combination helps to reduce pressure while supporting the back and neck for side and back sleepers.
However, if you are a heavy sleeper, the mattress will not be a suitable fit as it has a medium firmness appropriate best for average-weighted or petite sleepers. Therefore, we recommend the Saatva Classic. It has three firmness levels with 3, 6, and 8 scores suitable for all petite, average-weighted, and heavy sleepers regardless of their sleep position.
Performance
Overall, the mattress does not fail to give a top-notch performance while remaining within its boundaries. It features a unique one of its kind type of design that can contour around the sleeper through its RightTempTM memory foam. The RightTempTM memory foam infuses a strong carbon-based fiber and is highly conductive. Moreover, it can contour around the sleeper to provide optimal support, greatly relieve pressure points, and keep it cool at night.
Below, you will learn more about what the mattress can do or how it performs regarding motion isolation, edge support, durability, etc.
Is This Mattress a Good Choice for Back Pains?
The mattress can be a good choice for back sleepers who need lumbar support to keep their back well-aligned with the rest of the body. Those suffering from back pains will get the best support from Beautyrest Gel memory foam, which can relieve pressure points and conform around the body to relieve stress or pains.
However, it may not be best for combo or stomach sleepers suffering from back pains or discomfort. We recommend Saatva Classic as a better option for them as it features more comprehensive sleep support options.
Sagging and Edge Support
The mattress uses high-quality materials, and the T3 pocketed coils are strong carbon steel. Therefore, the mattress can easily last long without sagging or losing shape.
Couples who share a bed and toss or turn around won’t have to fear falling off the edges. So, it has tough competition with Saatva Classic regarding edge support and sagging, which also performs well.
Motion Isolation
The Beautyrest Black Hybrid X Class mattress performs well enough against the motion isolation factor. Couples sharing a bed who often get in or out of bed require good motion absorption without disturbing their partner. Therefore, the Beautyrest mattress’s unique T3 pocketed coil technology significantly helps the base’s motion isolation.
These individually wrapped strong steel coils paired with the top foam layer are best in the business for a couple’s special needs. But, again, it has tight and close competition with the Saatva Classic.
Sleeping Position and Weight
As a medium-firmed mattress, it is best for back and side sleepers with an average-weighted or petite body. Like most medium-firmed mattresses, it can support sleepers below 130 lbs or between 130-230 lbs. However, since sleepers above 230 lbs fall into the heavy sleeper category, they require a firm mattress. Therefore, there may be better suitable choices than this Beautyrest mattress. Moreover, combo and stomach sleepers do not also find the best body support and comfort.
Therefore, we recommend the Saatva Classic again. The mattress features three firmness levels that provide comprehensive, comfortable support for all petite, average-weighted, or heavy sleepers regardless of their sleep positions by adjusting the suitable firmness, and the rest is all good.
Breathability and Heat Transfer
The mattress performs exceptionally well when keeping its sleepers cool at night. Thanks to its BlackICE Hybrid Technology and RightTemp memory foam layer, Beautyrest’s the most advanced cooling technologies in its beds. It helps to maintain a cooler temperature by dissipating the heat, and the T3 pocketed coils in the bottom surface allows for breathability so that sleepers can enjoy a cool and relaxed sleep at night. Moreover, the use of Beautyrest Gel memory foam also helps against overheating during the night.
Durability
The mattress is very durable as it uses high-quality materials in its construction. Therefore, it can last for 8-10 years on estimation. In addition, the foams and the T3 pocketed steel coils are of high quality and won’t sag or go down too easily.
However, it is not enough against Saatva Classic’s durability, which can last for a lifetime. It is because the mattress is made of high-quality materials free of hazardous chemicals or substances.
