by Classic Brand’s gel memory foam mattress is an excellent choice for medium-plush softness. It contains ventilated memory foam with a gel infusion for a comfy and soft night’s sleep. In addition, the mattress has a high-density foundation foam that can help relieve the pressure points and even molds around the body to provide unparalleled support all night.
Moreover, the mattress has a medium-plush feeling. It is a beautiful masterpiece tailored with waterfall-edge technology and matching knit panels at the side. Adding a stretch knit fabric cover makes the mattress an excellent and breathable sleep option.
Although the Cool gel memory foam from the Classic brand is a good choice, we recommend Saatva Classic as a more suitable choice. Its numerous firmness settings and outstanding longevity offer improved support and performance.
The #1 alternative we recommend
Who Do We Recommend the Mattress for?
We recommend the mattress for the below sleepers:
- For those couples who frequently get in or out of bed at night as the mattress offers a good motion isolation feature.
- The mattress can be a good choice for hot sleepers. The cool gel memory foam has excellent technology that regulates body temperature and provides better breathability.
- The mattress can be a good choice for sleepers facing back pain problems. It contours to the back and provides great support to prevent pains through lumbar support.
- Those who are looking for a budget-friendly sleep option. The mattress has an affordable price.
Avoid the Mattress If:
We recommend avoiding the mattress if:
- If you are a heavy stomach sleeper as the mattress has an Ultra plush feeling. Heavy and stomach sleepers will not get the proper support and can sink too deep into the mattress. They should look for a more firm mattress to avoid any issues.
- Couples looking for edge support may face issues as the memory foam does not offer enough edge support.
- Those who are looking for a durable mattress that won’t sag after a long time of use. Since the mattress has only foams in its construction, it may lose its quality after some time.
Comfort and Firmness
The mattress provides good comfort for the side and back sleeper. However, stomach or combo sleepers may need help finding the optimal support, especially heavy sleepers, since the mattress has an ultra plush firmness. Therefore, it mostly suits the back and side sleepers of light and average body weight.
Therefore, we recommend Saatva Classic as a better sleep option. Furthermore, it can support all sleeping positions and body types as it offers three different firmness levels. Thus it will provide better comfort and support throughout the whole body.
Performance
The mattress has a great performance despite being budget-friendly. However, the mattress has an all-foam design from top to bottom. Regardless, the mattress foam is of good quality to provide better performance. Most importantly, the mattress has CertiPUR-Us certification with good-quality materials for excellent performance.
Is it a Good Mattress for Back Pain?
Yes, the mattress is an excellent choice for those who have back pains or want to prevent back pains. The ultra-plush firmed gel memory foam provides excellent support and contours around the back of the body. It helps to provide excellent pressure relief to the back, neck, and shoulders and even keeps the back properly aligned to avoid any pain.
Sagging and Edge Support
The mattress is a good choice but can still sag over time. Especially for heavy sleepers, the mattress won’t provide enough support and can cause stiffness and soreness. This is more likely to cause sagging for them. Moreover, couples who toss and turn around won’t find much edge support, and we would say it is just an average level.
Motion Isolation
The mattress provides better motion isolation for those who share the bed and frequently face getting in or out of bed. The cool gel chill memory foam has an all-memory design and an excellent reputation for taking great care of a couple’s motion isolation issues.
The mattress would be in close competition with the Saatva Classic regarding motion isolation factor.
Sleeping Position and Weight
The mattress is an excellent choice for side and back sleepers. However, stomach and combo sleepers might need help finding the right support and comfort. Those who weigh more than 230 lbs. or are heavy sleepers will also not find the mattress the right fit. That is because the mattress has an Ultra plush firm feeling, and it may sink too deep into it.
Therefore, we recommend the Saatva Classic again to suit any sleep position requirements weighing 230 lbs.
Breathability and Heat Transfer
The mattress does an excellent job of handling heat transference. The mattress has a gel-infused memory foam layer that helps displace the body’s heat. Moreover, it has an open cell design with a fabric stretch knit cover that provides excellent breathability.
However, if you still need a better choice, we can recommend the Saatva Classic. It does a great job through its tall large pocketed coils that encourage better airflow and organic cotton cover to keep things cool throughout the night.
Durability
The Classic Brands mattress might not be as durable as it appears. That is not because it is an affordable lower-price mattress. But the mattress does not include high-quality materials in the mattress. Usually, the memory foam mattress lasts for years to come without sagging. However, we can’t say the same with certainty in the case of this mattress.
We can confirm the same about the Saatva Mattress since the mattress uses high-quality and organic materials. Moreover, the Saatva offers 365- a night trial period and a lifetime warranty to witness and solidly support its mattress durability.
What is the Mattress Made of?
The mattress is made of the following:
- The first layer of memory foam is 3.5 inches thickness of, a cooling gel memory that provides cooling and heat-resistant comfort throughout the mattress surface.
- The second memory foam layer has 2 inches of cool cloud support foam that contours around the body to give a cloud-like luxury feeling.
- The base layer has 8.5 inches of high-density base foam that works as the mattress’s foundation to provide core support.
Is the Classic Brands Mattress Flippable?
No, the mattress is not flippable. Flipping the mattress will put so much strain on it and can cause damage.
Does the Mattress Come in a Box?
Yes, the mattress comes packed and compressed in a box for easy delivery. However, it would require 24-72 hours for the mattress to start functioning properly.
Is the Mattress Usable with an Adjustable Bed?
Yes, the mattress is easily usable with any good-quality adjustable bed.
Is the Mattress Made in the USA?
The mattress is made in both USA and China.

Our Verdict
Overall the mattress is a good value for the money as a mattress. It has enough layers of memory foam with a gel-infused layer and offers ultra-plush firmness for a wide range of sleepers, except for heavy or oversized sleepers. The motion isolation is excellent, and it keeps the hots sleepers cool and breathable with enough bounce and pressure points relief to prevent back pains.
However, if you want the best sleep solution with more durability and enhanced features and benefits, we recommend the Saatva Classic. The mattress offers various firmness levels that cover a wide range of sleepers and positions and offers excellent durability without any sagging.
