If you’re seeking a luxury hybrid mattress that won’t break the bank, you may want to give the WinkBed mattress a go. This bed contains luxury features like zoned support coils, a cooling Tencel cover, CertiPUR-US certified foam, and reinforced edges, yet it’s still cheaper than most luxury beds on the market. It also has a true medium-firm feel that’s compatible with a variety of sleeping positions and body types.
I’m a certified sleep science coach and have been testing and reviewing mattresses for three years. In our studio in Charlotte, NC, I’ve worked with a team of expert testers to evaluate more than 330 mattresses using a rigorous testing methodology. The best mattresses earn high scores on these tests, which not only indicate their quality and durability but also help guide us toward what kind of sleepers they’re best suited for.
In addition to having our team personally test every mattress, Sleepopolis works with a network of medical professionals, including board-certified doctors, physical therapists, and registered nurses who review our findings for accuracy. We work especially closely with our chief medical product tester, Dr. Joe Tedesco, DPT, OCS, ATC, CSCS, who tests mattresses in our studio and evaluates them for pain relief. We also work with our chief medical advisor, Dr. Raj Dasgupta, MD, FACP FCCP, FAASM, who provides expert insight for common sleep issues.
When I tested the WinkBed, I was impressed with its blend of plush cushioning and sturdy support. I found it most compatible with back sleeping, as the pressure-relieving foams add some contouring, while the innerspring coils promote proper spinal alignment. I also like this mattress for couples due to its performance on our edge support and motion isolation tests.
The WinkBed is a luxury hybrid mattress. It has a similarly supportive and sturdy feel to a traditional innerspring mattress, but upgrades like a Euro top and cooling Tencel cover give it a touch of modern luxury. Available in three firmness levels, there is a WinkBed for just about every sleeper. And a responsive and bouncy feel makes it a great pick for combination sleepers. Learn more in our video review.
What our tester says:
“If you like the feel of a traditional innerspring mattress, the WinkBed could work for you. Since this bed offered great pressure relief around my lumbar region, I’d also recommend it to folks who suffer from lower back pain.” – Nichole Mondshein, lead reviewer and staff writer
WinkBed Mattress Overview
The WinkBed mattress is offered in three different firmness options — Softer, Luxury Firm, and Firmer. The bed also comes in a Plus model, which was designed specially for heavy sleepers. I tested the Luxury Firm model in our studio and thought it had a true medium-firm feel, landing at a 6.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale.
This mattress arrives at your doorstep compressed in a box, ready to be unwrapped and inflated. Once fully risen, you’ll find a 13.5-inch bed with a soft, cool-to-the-touch pillow top. You may notice an initial scent coming from the bed and its packaging. Don’t worry — this is normal. The foams are simply off-gassing and releasing trapped air as they decompress. Any smell will dissipate within a few hours if it’s placed in a well-ventilated room as it expands.
The WinkBed stood out to us for its sturdy 4.4-star support that extends all the way to the edge of the bed. While there’s some plushness from the pillow top, the zoned support coils prevent the sleeper from sinking too far into the mattress. Although some beds are less supportive at the edges, the WinkBed remains strong throughout the entire structure. When we combined all of our testing scores together, the WinkBed earned 4.3 stars overall.

WinkBed Mattress Sleepopolis Score
WinkBed Value
We determine a mattress’s value by assessing whether the bed’s materials and performance quality match the price point. The WinkBed is a high-quality mattress made with CertiPUR-US certified foam that’s free from harmful chemicals, heavy metals, and ozone depleters. The bed has also been third-party certified for long-lasting durability. Additionally, this bed contains luxury upgrades such as coils zoned for support, which fluctuate in firmness depending on where the body needs more or less lift. The coils are also reinforced around the perimeter, which helps keep the edge support strong.
Luxury mattresses, as well as hybrid mattresses, come at a higher price point. Most luxury mattresses go for well over $2,000 for a queen size. However, the WinkBed is a luxury hybrid mattress that’s offered at $1,799 at full retail for a queen size. The brand also runs frequent sales that bring the cost down to around $1,499. Top it off with a lifetime warranty, and you’ve got an excellent mattress for the money.
What Is the WinkBed Made Of?
We assess mattress materials by cutting into the side of the bed and examining each layer. This allows us to verify that what’s inside the mattress matched the online description.
The WinkBed is a 13.5-inch tall mattress with a hybrid construction featuring a Euro pillow top, gel-infused foam, and sturdy innerspring coils. Since it’s marketed as a luxury mattress, I paid special attention to upgraded features and high-quality materials.
Cover – A Tencel cover made from 100-percent natural eucalyptus that’s soft and cool to the touch.
Euro-Pillow Top Layer – A pillow top quilted with gel-infused foam that’s plush and offers cushioning at the joints.
Comfort Layer – A 2-inch layer of gel-infused foam that has a slow response to pressure and promotes pressure relief.
Transition Layer – A thinner layer of foam that eases the sleeper onto the support system.
Support Layer – A tall section of individually wrapped coils that are zoned for support, meaning their firmness fluctuates depending on where the body needs more lift.
WinkBed Mattress Firmness
Mattress firmness is one of the more subjective factors we test for — what feels soft to one sleeper may feel firm to someone with a different body type, sleeping position, or personal preference. To nail down how a mattress actually feels, we invite multiple expert testers into our studio and have them lie on the bed on their backs, sides, and stomachs. Each tester provides their personal firmness rating, and then we find the average to create the final firmness score. We rate firmness on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the softest and 10 is the firmest. The most common mattress firmness is a 6.5 out of 10, which represents a true medium-firm feel.
When we tested the WinkBed in the Luxury Firm model, we rated it a 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale. This means it has a medium-firm feel that offers both soft cushioning and firm support. When lying on the bed, I felt some slight initial sinkage from the pillow top layer, but the coils provided plenty of lift and prevented me from sinking in too far. While I felt more “on” the bed than “in” it, there’s enough plushness to prevent the “lying on the hard floor” sensation.
I found this firmness and feel most compatible with side and back sleeping, which I’ll dive into later. Overall, there’s a nice blend between cushioning and support, and I think this feel can appeal to many types of sleepers.
WinkBed Mattress Performance
“Performance” refers to how well the mattress scored when we put it through a series of tests to evaluate pressure relief, motion isolation, responsiveness, cooling, and edge support. In the Sleepopolis studio, I worked with my fellow testers Sosha Lewis, Caine Wilkes, Asha Birjah, and Erin Chiles to assess the WinkBed across a number of factors related to its support and comfort level.
WinkBed Pressure Relief Performance
Pressure relief is an important factor for all sleepers to pay attention to, as your body weight and sleeping position largely determine whether you’ll wake up with pain. Mattresses can help relieve pressure along the body by providing enough sinkage and contouring at the joints to evenly distribute weight.
We test for pressure relief by rolling a specialized mat onto the mattress. Then, three expert testers of different body types lie on the mat in the back- and side-sleeping positions. As they lie there, the mat senses where pressure is building and translates the results into a color-coded graphic using thermal imaging. Areas of the body displayed in blue and green indicate little to no pressure building, while red and yellow indicate high-pressure areas.
Our three testers fall into different weight categories: lightweight, average-weight, and heavy sleeper. The diversity in body types during testing helps us better understand how the mattress responds to pressure. For example, lightweight sleepers who weigh under 130 pounds don’t sink very far into mattress layers, so they typically experience them as firmer than average. On the other hand, heavy sleepers weighing more than 230 pounds can sink too far into a mattress, so they need stronger support.
Our pressure mat also provides each sleeper’s average pressure in pounds per square inch (PSI). We compare their individual average pressure to the average mattress PSI for each sleeping position. The overall PSI average is 14.9 for side sleeping and 12.4 for back sleeping. In order for a mattress to get a high score for pressure relief, we expect our testers to have lower PSI scores than average for each position.
When we tested the WinkBed in the Luxury Firm model, we gave it an average pressure relief score of 3.3 out of 5 stars in the side-sleeping position and 4.3 stars in the back-sleeping position. When we average these scores together, we get an overall pressure rating of 3.8 stars.
Our testers felt the most pressure relief in the back-sleeping position. Average-weight tester Sosha Lewis and heavy sleeper Caine Wilkes both gave this position 5 stars because they felt good spinal alignment and no areas of pain or pressure building. “I don’t ever sleep on my back, but this bed might just convert me,” Sosha said. “It’s firm yet still provides contouring at my lower back, which sometimes causes issues for me.”
Sosha and lightweight tester Asha Birjah both had average PSI scores lower than average, coming in at 11.35 and 11.09, respectively, indicating good pressure relief. Although Caine felt good on this mattress, his 14.6 PSI is higher than we’d like to see, so we recommend heavy sleepers try the Firmer or Plus model.
In the side-sleeping position, our testers found themselves wanting a bit more cushioning around their pressure points. Our lightweight tester Asha Birjah was the only tester with a lower PSI score than average, at 11.9. However, she noticed some slight gaps where the bed wasn’t cushioning her waist, and she noticed some pressure building in her hip. Our average-weight and heavy sleepers sank in a bit further and were able to get better pressure relief, yet they each had a higher PSI score than average.
Sosha said, “It’s a little firmer than I prefer, but my spine feels aligned and there’s no gapping anywhere on my body.” While she liked the bed on her side, she and Caine both felt pressure building at their shoulders, so those with preexisting shoulder pain may want the Softer model.
When our chief medical product tester Dr. Joe Tedesco evaluated the WinkBed for pain relief, he thought it was a good match for sleepers with hip or back pain. “In every position, the pressure is evenly distributed along your body,” he said. “There’s no pressure in my pelvis or sacrum, and my spine feels neutral.”
Overall, we think the Luxury firm model is great for average-weight back and side sleepers. Since our lightweight tester found this bed a tad too firm to be fully comfortable, we recommend sleepers who weigh less than 130 pounds opt for the Softer model. While heavy sleepers may enjoy the Luxury Firm model, we think they’ll find more support from the Firm or Plus models.
WinkBed Motion Isolation
If you sleep with a partner or pet, motion isolation may be something you want from your new mattress. If you have someone tossing and turning next to you, a motion-isolating mattress will be able to absorb their movement at the source and prevent it from traveling across the bed. This can appeal to anyone who is easily awakened, as it prevents sleep disturbance and promotes sounder sleep. According to Dr. Raj, motion isolation can also indicate high-quality materials and construction. When we tested the WinkBed using a ripple test and partner test, we found an overall score of 4.3 stars. side to see how my movement affected the liquid. During the test, there was a decent amount of movement in the glass, meaning that the wine was impacted by me moving around on the mattress. It’s not a bad result; just something I do want to note.
I started the ripple test by placing a full tub of water on one side of the mattress. Then, I climbed into bed on the other side and switched between sleeping positions. Testers observed the water inside the tub and whether my movement caused any disruption. I noticed only some slight ripples on the water’s surface when I got in and out of bed. The water started moving quicker when I began to switch between sleeping positions, but it wasn’t sloshing aggressively or splashing up the side of the tub. I rated getting in and out of bed 5 stars and tossing and turning 4 stars for motion isolation.
Next, I took away the water tub and lay down on the bed with my eyes closed. My testing partner then got in and out of bed beside me and rolled around while I observed whether I could feel her movement. I could tell that someone else was on the bed, but it didn’t affect my side too much. The pillow top did a nice job of absorbing her motion and preventing me from feeling it. I could feel more of her larger movements, but my body wasn’t being jostled around. I rated this test 4 out of 5 stars.
Bouncy hybrid mattresses like the WinkBed typically struggle to isolate motion, but this bed is an exception. While you may feel some movement from your partner, I think you’re unlikely to wake up due to their restlessness. Very light sleepers might wake up from larger movements, but their sleep shouldn’t be disrupted too frequently.
WinkBed Responsiveness
Responsiveness refers to how quickly the mattress returns to its original shape after weight has been applied. We also consider how easy it is to move around on the bed, which can be important to combination sleepers as they switch between sleeping positions. Although the WinkBed has bouncy pocketed coils, the pillow top makes it harder to move around on. I rated it 3 out of 5 stars based on the four responsiveness tests.
Switch test: First, I evaluated how easy it was to move from my back to my side to my stomach. I noticed that I had to put in a bit of effort when transitioning from one position to the next. The pillow top is pretty plush and contains tufted divots, which were harder to move around on. While I didn’t feel like the bed was assisting me while switching positions, I didn’t feel trapped in the foam either. I gave the switch test 3 stars because my mobility was just average.
Responsiveness test: Next, we quantified how long it takes the WinkBed to bounce back. Our tester Erin Chiles placed a 53-pound kettlebell on the center of the mattress and allowed it to fully sink in. Then, she pulled the weight straight up, and a stopwatch recorded how long it took the bed to return to its original shape. It bounced back in 1.2 seconds, which isn’t super responsive nor slow-moving, so this test earned 3 stars.
Sinkage test: For the sinkage test, Erin grabbed our 53-pound kettlebell again and allowed it to fully sink into the bed. She used a ruler to measure how far the weight sank and found 3.6 inches of sinkage. This qualifies as “deep sinkage” and earned the bed 5 stars.
Bounce test: Finally, I found out exactly how bouncy the bed is by climbing a ladder 6 feet above the mattress and dropping a 25-pound steel ball onto its surface. A yardstick on the wall showed the ball rebounded 17.5 inches into the air. A bounce higher than 12 inches is classified as “high bounce,” and the WinkBed certainly meets the criteria.
WinkBed Cooling
If you’re a hot sleeper, you may find cooler nights from mattresses that have breathable materials and an airy construction. This can help with temperature regulation and prevent overheating. I tested the WinkBed’s cooling abilities using a thermal gun test, a cover test, and a feel test to create an overall score of 4 stars.
Thermal Gun test: For this test, I used a thermal gun to measure the WinkBed’s initial temperature before anyone had touched it. Then, I lay on the bed for five minutes before taking the bed’s temperature again and calculating the difference. If the temperature increases by fewer than 5 degrees, we consider it to have excellent cooling. An increase of 5 to 10 degrees indicates good cooling, 10 to 15 degrees indicates decent cooling, and more than 15 degrees indicates poor cooling.
When I performed the thermal gun test, the WinkBed went from 65.7 degrees to 74.2 degrees. This is a 6.5-degree increase, which is classified as good cooling, earning the bed 4 stars.
Cover test: Here, I evaluate the cover’s cooling abilities. The WinkBed has a Tencel cover made from 100-percent eucalyptus. This material is naturally cooling, and I thought it felt cool to the touch when I first lay down. The gel infusion quilted into the pillow top also helps draw heat away from the body.
Feel test: As I lay on the mattress for five minutes during the thermal gun test, I paid attention to my body temperature and whether I could feel the bed heating up beneath me. I did notice the initial cool sensation faded as the minutes ticked by, but it never felt uncomfortably warm.
Based on these tests, I think the WinkBed is a good cooling mattress. Most hot sleepers should find this mattress very breathable due to the innerspring coil system that promotes air circulation throughout the mattress. However, I can see extra-hot sleepers needing even more cooling, which they can find on our best cooling mattresses roundup.
WinkBed Edge Support
Edge support refers to the strength of a mattress’s perimeter. It’s something you may have never thought of, but trust us – you’ll notice if you’re on a bed with sagging sides. Not only do strong edges make it easy to sprawl out and use the entire surface of the bed, but people with mobility issues can rely on them for support when getting in and out. I tested the WinkBed’s edge support using a tape measure test, a seated test, and a lying-down test to create a final score of 4.4 stars.
Tape measure test: To determine how the edges respond when weight is applied, we create three stacks of weighted plates — a 99-pound stack, a 154-pound stack, and a 198-pound stack. We place a weighted stack directly on the edge of the bed and use a tape measure to see how many inches the layers collapsed. From the lightest to the heaviest stack, the sinkage went from 2 inches to 3.5 inches to 4 inches. When we combine the ratings from all three stacks, this bed gets an average score of 4.3 for the tape measure test.
Seated test: Next, I sat directly on the edge of the WinkBed and observed how stable I felt. I felt a decent amount of sinkage under me as I compressed the top layers of foam. However, I didn’t feel unstable or like I was about to slide off the bed. I thought the edges did a great job lifting me, keeping me secure despite the foam layers collapsing, so I rated this test 4 stars.
Full body test: I then lay down directly on the edge of the bed on my back, side, and stomach. I felt even more supported during this test than I did during the seated test. The edges felt just as strong as the center of the mattress, and I didn’t notice it sagging anywhere. My weight was evenly distributed, and I felt secure, so this test earned 5 stars.
Based on my findings, I think the WinkBed is a great choice for couples or solo sleepers who like to spread out. You should be able to sleep right up to the edge and still feel supported, which can make the mattress feel even larger. I think some people with mobility issues may want a bed without a pillow top, as this plush layer compresses when you try to bear down on it for support and makes it more difficult to get in and out of bed.
WinkBed Mattress Performance for Couples
If you sleep next to a partner, you should pay close attention to motion isolation, cooling, responsiveness, and edge support when buying a new bed. Based on the WinkBed’s performance in these categories, I think it could be a solid choice for couples.
This mattress scored 4 stars or higher on our motion isolation, cooling, and edge support tests. With 4.3-star motion isolation, most sleepers won’t experience disrupted sleep from a restless partner. We also think hot-sleeping couples won’t feel too warm due to the 4-star cooling. I was also impressed with the 4.4-star edge support, so you and your partner will be able to fully spread out on the mattress.
One area where the bed underperformed is responsiveness, earning only 3 stars. Responsiveness can sometimes appeal to couples, as it allows them to easily move around during sex. While I didn’t find myself trapped in the foam, it’s not the easiest bed to roll around on.
Other Performance Factors to Consider
While pressure relief, motion isolation, cooling, responsiveness, and edge support are all important to consider, there are a few more things you’ll want to know before buying the WinkBed.
Sex
We create our score for sex by combining our responsiveness, cooling, and edge support scores. As I mentioned in the responsiveness section, sexually active couples typically appreciate a bed that’s easy to move around on. Cooling is also good to look at, as you don’t want to get too sweaty during sex. We also recommend prioritizing edge support so you can use the full surface area of the mattress.
Based on the 4.4-star edge support, 4-star cooling, and 3-star responsiveness, the WinkBed earns 3.8 stars overall for sex, making it a decent pick. I think the cooling is good enough to prevent you from completely overheating, but you may not be entirely sweat-free. The edges are just as supportive as the center of the bed, so you won’t need to worry about falling off. However, couples may have a hard time with mobility on this bed, as they may get trapped in the bed’s divots. Check out our best mattress for sex roundup for even more options.
Noise
I tested the WinkBed for noise by compressing the layers, rolling around, and bouncing on it. I found the mattress itself pretty quiet, but I did hear a bit of air escaping the foam when I sat down on it. Other than that small whoosh of air, it’s not a noisy mattress, so I gave it 4 stars for this category.
Base Compatibility
If you want to use an adjustable base to sit up in bed to read or watch TV, the WinkBed may not be the best choice. When I placed the bed on an adjustable base and toggled to the TV setting, the bed struggled to conform to the base. Even with two people on the bed, there was still a large gap where it didn’t meet the base. The pillow top also had nowhere to go, so it scrunched up in the middle. I gave the base compatibility 1 star.
Durability
A durable mattress will last for a long time without sagging or material deterioration. We assess durability by looking at the quality of the materials used, the bed’s performance in support and edge support, and the mattress warranty. Quality materials and sturdy support are essential to keeping a mattress standing strong for decades. The warranty also provides insight into how long the company expects the mattress to hold up.
Overall, I think the WinkBed is an extremely durable mattress. As a luxury bed, it has an upgraded construction that contains high-quality materials and strong zoned support that’s firmer when you need additional structure and softer where you need more cushion. In addition to its 100-percent natural, eucalyptus-derived Tencel cover, all the foam inside the bed is CertiPUR-US certified, and the supportive coils are reinforced around the edges. According to WinkBeds, its foam is sag-resistant, and the springs are triple-tempered and wear-resistant. The entire mattress has been third-party tested for long-term durability and comes with a lifetime warranty, so WinkBeds is confident its product will stand the test of time.

WinkBed Sleeping Position and Body Weight
There are two personal elements that largely determine how a mattress feels for you — your body type and preferred sleeping position. For example, a bed that feels firm to a side sleeper could be too soft for a stomach sleeper. For this reason, we tested the WinkBed using three testers of different body types and had them try the bed on their sides, backs, and stomachs. Below, I’ll break down each weight class and how the bed feels in different positions.
Before we dive into our recommendations, though, we want to recognize that people come in all shapes and sizes, and people of every size deserve a mattress that works for their body type. We use the weight categories light, average, and heavy to more easily categorize sleepers based on how mattresses will perform for their body type, as most mattresses are designed for the group we call “average” (130 to 230 pounds).
As a general takeaway, lighter sleepers don’t require as much support as average-weight sleepers, and mattresses will tend to feel firmer to them. On the other hand, heavy sleepers tend to need more support than average-weight sleepers and tend to sink into the mattress more. As far as sleeping positions go, side sleepers tend to need a softer mattress, while stomach sleepers usually need a firmer, more supportive one. Back sleepers are usually somewhere in the middle.
Is the WinkBed a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – These sleepers should find a lot of lift that props their hips in line with their shoulders. They’ll experience some slight cushioning at the lower back that provides lumbar support.
- Light Side Sleepers – The Luxury Firm model may be a touch too firm to relieve pressure in this position. We recommend that lightweight side sleepers opt for the Softer model.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – These sleepers should find enough support to prevent their hips from sinking too far into the mattress.
Is the WinkBed a Good Mattress for Average-Weight Sleepers (130–230 pounds)?
- Average-Weight Back Sleepers – Back sleepers should feel great on the Luxury Firm model. Their spine will be held in a straight line, while the pillow top fills in any gaps in their lower back.
- Average-Weight Side Sleepers – These sleepers will get cushioning at their hips and shoulders and find even weight distribution on the Luxury Firm model. Those with chronic shoulder pain may find better pressure relief on the Softer model.
- Average-Weight Stomach Sleepers – The Luxury Firm model may be too soft to properly lift the hips in line with the shoulders in this position. Stomach sleepers should select the Firmer model at checkout, which will provide enough support to keep their spine aligned.
Is the WinkBed a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (over 230 pounds)?
- Heavy Back Sleepers – These sleepers will likely think the Luxury Firm model is softer than medium-firm. Those who prefer a soft feel can still find nice spinal alignment on this model, but those wanting more firmness and support should try the Firmer or Plus model.
- Heavy Side Sleepers – Most heavy side sleepers will find good spinal alignment on this mattress, but those with sensitive shoulders may feel pressure building.
- Heavy Stomach Sleepers – I would steer these sleepers towards the WinkBed Plus, which is super supportive and designed to keep heavy sleepers lifted.
My Final Thoughts About the WinkBed Mattress
Let’s quickly break down my favorite things about the WinkBed, as well as some negative callouts.

WinkBed vs WinkBeds GravityLux
The GravityLux is a luxury hybrid mattress that has a similar construction to the WinkBed but is made with proprietary Aircell foam, which WinkBeds says is the world’s first non-visco memory foam. According to WinkBeds, this means it contains “billions of microscopic shock-absorbing cushions” that add pressure relief, so it’s allegedly cooler than traditional memory foam while still offering that classic contouring. This bed is offered in three firmness levels, and we rated the Medium model a 7 out of 10 on the firmness scale.
- Price: These beds are priced very similarly.
- Sleeping position: Both mattresses are best for back sleepers
- Cooling: Both mattresses earned 4 stars on our cooling test.
- Body weight: Both beds are supportive enough for heavy back sleepers, but heavy side and stomach sleepers may need a firmer mattress.

Our Review Process
At Sleepopolis, our team of certified sleep science coaches personally test each mattress. We start by unboxing the mattress to figure out how difficult (or easy) it is to get it from the box to the bed. Then, we spend time lying on the bed in different positions, taking time to assess it on our backs, stomachs, and sides. Next, we perform our Sleepopolis tests, using specialized tools to measure qualities like motion transfer, bounce, and pressure relief. Our last step is to open up the mattress and take a look at each layer. These steps allow us to give our final verdict on the mattress.
