Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Overview
The Leesa Sapira Chill is a hybrid mattress, meaning it utilizes both foam and coils in its construction (a blend of all-foam mattresses and innersprings). Per its name, the Leesa Sapira Chill was built with cooling technology to prevent hot sleepers from overheating at night. It does this with a cover made from cooling fibers, along with cooling-gel infused memory foam and breathable pocketed coils.
The Leesa Sapira Chill actually comes in three different firmnesses: Plush, Medium-Firm, and Firm. This isn’t uncommon in the mattress market, but the firmness options do make a mattress more accessible to a wider range of sleepers. In this review, I tested the Medium-Firm version.
Like many online mattresses, the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress is delivered compressed in a package, making it a bed-in-a-box. Often, you’ll notice an off-gassing period for many mattresses, especially foam ones, where trapped odor from the mattress is released upon opening. We actually found that the Leesa Sapira Chill had no off-gassing smells, even though we gave it a couple of days to ventilate.

You might notice that trial period and warranty are two categories in which the Leesa Sapira Chill scored lower in. Good trial periods and warranties are both crucial for the customer, as they’re policies in place for the benefit of the customer.

What Is the Leesa Sapira Mattress Made Of?
The Leesa Sapira Chill is a 14-inch hybrid mattress that boasts several plush foam layers, zoned pocketed coils, and numerous cooling features. Here’s an in-depth look at its mattress construction.
Cover – It has a cool-to-the-touch cover as its top layer that’s made with cooling fibers (polyester, polyethylene, and Spandex) designed to keep your skin at a comfy 88 degrees.
Comfort Layer – Its comfort system consists of thick, cooling gel-infused foam that’s supported by an adaptable memory foam layer for extra cushion and support.
Transition Layer – This layer consists of high-quality foam that’s designed to provide pressure relief and extra support.
Foundation Layer – Supporting the bed is a thick base layer of individually pocketed coils with zoned support for a healthy spine alignment. Pocket springs are also very breathable and cooling as they promote good airflow inside the mattress.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Firmness
Let’s talk about one of the most important factors — firmness. In this section, I’ll talk about how firm the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress is. Now, firmness is subjective and can feel different depending on your body size, shape, and weight.
Since it’s subjective, I like to incorporate my coworkers’ opinions to get a well-rounded idea of what the Leesa mattress feels like. Here’s the average of our individual firmness ratings for the Medium-Firm version of the Leesa Sapira Chill. (Remember, you can also opt for a softer or firmer model).
After everything, our testers came up with an average rating of 6 out of 10 on the firmness scale. Considering that the industry standard for medium firmness is 6.5, I’d say the Medium-Firm model of the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress is slightly softer than average.
When I first laid down on the Leesa Sapira Chill, I immediately noticed its plush yet supportive feel where I felt I was sleeping “on” the bed rather than “in” it. It’s very responsive and has good bounce — thanks to the reinforced pocketed springs — so I felt comfortably lifted and had no trouble moving around and shifting positions.

Sleeping Position and Body Weight
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 250 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 Leesa Sapira Chill a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – Light back sleepers usually prefer something a bit softer yet still supportive, which makes the Sapira Chill an excellent option for them.
- Light Side Sleepers – I think side sleepers could also enjoy sleeping on the Sapira Chill as it’s soft enough to cushion the sides and firm enough to keep them lifted and supported. However, the Plush model may be even better suited for side sleeping.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – The Sapira Chill is also a good choice for light stomach sleepers who need enough lift to keep their spine in alignment without applying too much pressure.
Is the Leesa Sapira Chill a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130 to 250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – I think the Leesa Sapira Chill is an excellent match for these sleepers since its zoned support system provides extra lumbar support for a healthy, neutral spine alignment.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – This mattress should also be great for side sleepers looking for a mattress with a soft, doughy feel that contours their shoulders and hips comfortably.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – I think this mattress should be okay for stomach sleepers, but I would recommend the Firm version more for extra hip support.
Is the Leesa Sapira Chill a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Back Sleepers – Heavier back sleepers should sleep okay on the Medium-Firm version, but I think the Firm version should provide better comfort and support.
- Heavy Side Sleepers – I think the Sapira Chill should still feel comfortable for side sleepers, thanks to the zoned support that helps cushion the hips and shoulders.
- Heavy Stomach Sleepers – On the other hand, I think stomach sleepers are better off with the Firm model since the Medium-Firm will probably feel too soft.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Performance
A big part of what we do here at Sleepopolis is run a series of tests on each mattress we review. This helps our team of Certified Sleep Science Coaches get an objective view of what it would be like to sleep on them. These tests also allow us to make even more specific recommendations in addition to sleeping position and body type. Below, see how the Leesa Sapira Chill performs in areas such as pain relief, motion transfer, cooling, and more.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Pain Relief Performance
If a mattress has good pressure relief, it’s able to relieve tension from sensitive areas with a surface that’s contouring and cushioning. Many side sleepers and folks with joint pain like a mattress with lots of pressure relief.
We put the Sapira Chill through our pressure map test. To do this, we put a mat across the mattress that tracks areas of high, moderate, and low pressure. The results are shown on a graphic using thermal imaging. Areas of low pressure are recorded in blue to green, while areas high pressure areas recorded in yellow to red. We cover three different areas: back pain, shoulder pain, and hip pain.
Make sure you are aware of what sleeping position you’re most comfortable with. This should help you make a decision on how much pressure relief you need. To paint a better picture, if you’re a side sleeper with hip pain, the Medium-Firm model does a good job of relieving pressure in this area. But you may want to consider the softest version of the Sapira Chill instead for optimal pressure relief. In short, consider your sleeping position first, then look at our pressure map results.
Judging from all the blues, the Leesa Sapira Chill’s Medium-Firm version does well for folks in the side and back sleeping positions. Each map showed virtually no pressure buildup. From this, we can determine that this model of the Sapira Chill is going to be an excellent choice for back, shoulder, and hip pain.
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer measures the level of disturbance caused by movement on the mattress. This is an especially important consideration for partners and pets.
We measure motion transfer through three different tests. First, we test the mattress by lying down on it with a colleague, rolling around, and seeing how much of each other’s movements we’re feeling. The second test involves placing a full wine glass on the mattress. Then, we move around on the mattress, and see how the wine moves with us. If the liquid has zero to little movement, then the mattress likely has low motion transfer.
Our last test involves dropping a 10 pound steel ball from three heights: four inches, eight inches and 12 inches. Then, we measure the disturbance it causes, with longer lines signifying higher motion transfer.
All in all, I’d say that the Leesa Sapira Chill has good motion isolation. I think smaller movements, like tossing and turning, should be negligible. However, you may feel the bed move a bit whenever your partner gets on and off the bed.
Responsiveness
Responsiveness is tested by pressing down the mattress and seeing how quickly the surface returns to its original shape once we remove our hand. Memory foam mattresses typically have lower responses to pressure. On the other hand, hybrid mattresses with coils (such as the Sapira Chill) have higher responses to pressure. Responsive mattresses are easy to move around on and change positions on. This makes them especially useful for sex, and for combination sleeping.
Fortunately, the Leesa Sapira Chill has a good amount of bounce with an “on top” feel, making it a good mattress for sex and combination sleeping.
Cooling
When we determine whether or not a mattress is cooling, we look at its construction. The Leesa Sapira Hybrid has a layer of pocketed coils for sufficient airflow. Additional temperature regulation comes from the cool-to-the-touch cover and the gel infusion in the foam.
We use a thermal gun, a device that uses color-coded imaging, to measure how much and how quickly a mattress heats up when we rest on it. If it heats up more than 15 degrees Fahrenheit, we consider it to have poor cooling capabilities. 10 to 15 degrees indicates decent cooling, 5 to 10 degrees indicates good cooling, and less than 5 degrees indicates excellent cooling.
After five minutes of lying on the Leesa Sapira Chill, it increased 6.3 degrees. This tells us that it’s a decent mattress for cooling. Personally, I felt its cooling effects while lying down on it. Considering this, as well as its overall cooling construction, I feel that the Sapira Chill is one of the best cooling mattresses. Also, your body temperature drops when you sleep, so chances are this mattress will have a lower temperature in your home at night.
Keep in mind that several outside factors can affect cooling, including the temperature of your bedroom, how close your bed is to an air vent or window, and your body’s own temperature, which can vary from person to person.
Edge Support
Edge support is the strength of a mattress’s perimeter, and it also indicates durability. A mattress with excellent edge support is good news for couples, heavier sleepers, those wanting a durable mattress, and anyone who likes to spread out and use the full mattress surface.
Laying down or sitting down near the edges made no difference — I didn’t feel like I sank much at all. In fact, I felt like I was very supported in both positions. Overall, I’d say the Leesa Sapira Chill has impressive edge support.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Performance For Couples
With good scores in all categories (motion isolation, cooling, responsiveness, and edge support), it’s extremely safe to say that the Sapira Chill is going to be a fantastic mattress for most couples.

My Final Thoughts About the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress
So, is the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress the perfect mattress for you? Before we answer that question, let me share with you my final thoughts on this mattress.
Who I recommend the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress for
- I really think the medium-firm model is a great fit for all sleeping positions. Yep, the Leesa Sapira Chill is one of those unicorn mattresses that provides a great balance of comfort and support for a wide range of sleepers.
- The Sapira Chill excels at dissipating heat and providing a cooling sleeping surface, so I would recommend it for hot sleepers.
- Couples looking for a mattress with a good amount of bounce, responsiveness, and motion isolation will probably enjoy sleeping on this Leesa mattress.
Who I don’t recommend Leesa Sapira Chill mattress for
- The Sapira Chill falls on the pricier side of mattresses, so I wouldn’t recommend it for budget shoppers.
- This is a hybrid mattress with coils and springs that should keep you lifted up and out of the structure, so memory foam lovers would probably not get that traditional hugging feel that memory foam mattresses provide.
- Those not interested in cooling features and just want a simple online mattress can pro

Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Policies and FAQs
What are Leesa’s shipping, trial period, and limited warranty policies?
Leesa provides free shipping, a sleep trial period of 100 nights where you are eligible for a full refund, and a 10-year warranty.
What’s the difference between the Leesa Sapira mattress and the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress?
Though both are hybrid mattresses from Leesa, what makes the Sapira Chill special is its zoned coil system and cooling cover. It also has a thicker mattress profile at 14 inches, while the original Sapira has an 11-inch profile.
Can I flip the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress?
No, it’s designed to have comfort layers on top and support layers on bottom, so that would defeat the purpose. We recommend rotating it 180 degrees every few months instead.
Can I put the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress on a box spring?
According to Leesa, they don’t recommend using their hybrid mattresses on box springs, as they can alter the feel of the mattress. Instead, they recommend a foundation or a platform bed.
Is the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress made in the USA?
Yes, all Leesa mattresses are designed and manufactured in the U.S.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Vs
Since we now have a good understanding of the Leesa Sapira Chill’s performance, let’s pit it against other similar mattresses to see how well it handles itself. For this part, we’ll be comparing it to the Saatva Classic and Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe.
Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress vs Saatva Classic
The Saatva Classic is an innerspring mattress with one zoned layer of memory foam that comes with free white glove delivery, while the Leesa Sapira Chill is a hybrid, bed-in-a-box mattress.
- Price: Both are priced similarly, but the Saatva is just a touch cheaper than the Leesa Sapira Chill.
- Sleeping position: Both are offered in different firmness levels, so each should fit a wide variety of sleeping positions.
- Cooling: The Leesa Sapira Chill sleeps cooler than the Saatva Classic due to having more cooling features and materials.
- Body weight: Both mattresses have multiple firmness options that should suit a variety of body types. We’d say that the firmer version Leesa Sapira Chill is more likely to better support heavier body types.

Let’s take a look at how well the Sapira Chill fares against its siblings. Keep in mind they’ll all have the same trial, warranty, and return policy.
Leesa Sapira Chill Hybrid Mattress vs Leesa Original
The Leesa Original is an all-foam mattress that utilizes high-density foam for support, while the Sapira Chill has a hybrid construction. The Leesa Original is available in only one firmness level (we rated it a 6 out of 10), while the Sapira Chill comes in three firmness levels.
- Price: The Sapira Chill has a pricier price tag than the budget-friendly Leesa Original.
- Sleeping position: The Leesa isn’t firm enough for stomach sleepers, while the Sapira Chill’s firmest model is.
- Cooling: The Leesa Sapira Chill is a hybrid mattress with much more cooling tech, so it doesn’t heat up as much as the Leesa.
- Body weight: The Leesa can’t support most folks over 250 pounds, while the Leesa Sapira Chill can.

Leesa Sapira Chill Hybrid Mattress vs Leesa Original Hybrid
Both the Sapira Chill and the Original Hybrid have a hybrid construction made from foam and coils.
- Price: The Leesa Hybrid is more affordable than the Sapira Chill.
- Sleeping position: The Sapira Chill should support all sleeping position (as it’s offered in a variety of firmnesses), while the Original Hybrid is a bit too soft for stomach sleepers.
- Cooling: The Sapira Chill has more (and therefore, better) cooling features than the Original Hybrid.
- Body weight: While the Original Hybrid should work for some heavier back sleepers, it won’t be supportive enough for most folks over 250 pounds. We suggest considering the Sapira Chill instead.

Leesa Original Hybrid Mattress
Leesa introduced its new Leesa Original Hybrid as a mattress that brings the same benefits of the original model, but has the added perk of pocketed springs to promote more airflow and durability. Another bonus? It comes at an affordable price.

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 the mattress from the box to the bed. Then, we spend time laying 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.
FAQs
Are smart beds expensive?
Yes, smart beds are expensive. However, luxury mattresses that are not “smart” can also be very expensive, so you will need to consider what you really want out of your bed and your budget to decide if a smart bed is worth the price.
Are smart beds better than other beds?
Not necessarily. Smart beds are a great option for couples, people with pain, or people with specific needs, but they are not ideal for everyone. Some people may still really enjoy a traditional mattress, or even prefer it. Consider the things I have mentioned in this review to decide if a smart bed is ready for you.
Do smart beds help you sleep better?
They certainly can! Smart beds can stay cooler than other beds, adjust to your needs, and help you find a position that is just right. In this way, smart beds can help you get really good sleep. However, so can traditional mattresses, so you will just need to think about what you need most out of your mattress.
What are the cons of smart beds?
Smart beds can be really expensive and sometimes they require unique bases, bed frames, and other technology to make them work properly, so they may not be a good option for people shopping on a budget or not looking for tech savvy bed.
