The Nectar Luxe (formerly known as the Nectar Premier Copper) is the tallest, coolest, and most supportive mattress from Nectar Sleep’s all-foam beds. Nectar claims this bed is twice as cooling as their all-foam Nectar Classic and has materials to combat the heat-trapping tendencies of memory foam. But is it right for your sleep needs?
To help you find out, I’m going to describe the Nectar Luxe’s feel, materials, and more in this mattress review. Keep reading to learn more about this memory foam mattress, or skip over to my review summary to save time.

Nectar Luxe Mattress Overview
The Nectar Luxe is a bed-in-a-box mattress, which means it ships compressed in a box. You’ll need to unbox it at home (preferably with help, since the box can be heavy and the mattress can expand quickly once unwrapped). Before sleeping on this mattress, I’d recommend waiting at least 48 hours after unboxing for it to fully decompress and release any trapped gasses or packing smells.
As a brand, Nectar is known for its slow-moving, cushy memory foam. While the Nectar Luxe contains a lot of this material, the mattress also varies in firmness and feel compared to the other Nectar beds. We’ll touch on the Luxe’s individual traits and even directly compare all of the Nectar mattresses at the end of this review.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Review Video
Before we get into the full written review, check out my video review below. You can see me put the Nectar Luxe through a variety of tests, with each test’s individual score at the end of the video. After tallying the scores, I gave the mattress an overall rating of 4.5 out of 5.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Sleepopolis Score
What Is the Nectar Luxe Mattress Made Of?
Since you can’t see the inside Luxe yourself, I cut open the cover to give you a look at all the layers inside. Hopefully, this will give you an even better idea of what this 14-inch tall mattress might feel like to you.
Cover – The Nectar Luxe’s top layer features a breathable cooling cover with antimicrobial treatment and enhanced moisture-wicking fabric to keep you cool and clean overnight. I think the brand’s Luxe line has the most cool-to-the-touch cover out of all the Nectar mattresses. As soon as I jumped into bed, I felt the Luxe’s cooling properties immediately.
Comfort Layer – Next is a comfort layer made of 3 inches of therapeutic memory foam. This slow-moving layer’s surface provides pressure relief and support around your back and joints. When trying out the Nectar Luxe for myself, I felt quite a bit of sinkage around my entire body. The Nectar Luxe provided excellent support around my lower lumbar spine while making me feel cradled and cozy.
Transition Layer – Now, we come to a dynamic response layer that helps ease sleepers down onto the base layer below it. This layer has 3 inches of Nectar’s high-quality support foam to promote proper spinal alignment and offer additional back support. Based on my experience with the Nectar Luxe, I think the support layer gets the job done. Despite sinking into the mattress, I never felt my hips sink in more than the rest of my body, and my spine stayed in a healthy position the entire time.
Support Layer – Finally, an 8 inch layer of conventional foam rounds out this mattress. This foam is used in many bed-in-a-box mattresses and offers support and durability to the rest of the bed.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Firmness
Now that you know more about the Luxe’s construction, let’s talk about what it actually feels like. Keep in mind that feel is subjective, and a mattress will feel different to you depending on your body weight and preferred sleeping position. For this reason, I like to have my coworkers also weigh in with their opinions and then average our scores together.
After testing this mattress together, my colleagues and I gave the Nectar Luxe a 5.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale. For reference, the industry standard for medium-firm is 6.5 out of 10, meaning the Nectar Luxe feels a good bit softer than most mattresses on the market. The longer you spend on this Nectar, the farther into its therapeutic memory foam layers you’ll sink, but never so much that you don’t feel supported.
This Nectar did a great job of contouring to my body, something most memory foam lovers should appreciate. However, it’s not very responsive, meaning that combination sleepers and couples might have a hard time maneuvering on this mattress.

Sleeping Position and Body Weight
We 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 Nectar Luxe a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – Back sleepers who like the feel of memory foam should like this bed. However, lightweight back sleepers will not sink as much as average-weight and heavier sleepers on this mattress.
- Light Side Sleepers – I’d recommend this mattress’s pressure-relieving feel to side sleepers in need of softness at the shoulders and hips. Since this mattress is super soft, the Nectar Luxe does a great job of cushioning those sensitive pressure points.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – I think these sleepers could like this bed, even though it’s not the firmest option out there.
Is the Nectar Luxe a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130–250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – I like this bed for average weight back sleepers. It offers some nice contouring at the lower back that feels really comfortable. As someone who deals with back pain myself, I found that the Nectar Luxe provided just enough sinkage and optimal pressure relief. If you’re a back sleeper who loves to feel cradled by their mattress, the Luxe is for you.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – I also think this bed is an excellent choice for these sleepers. In fact, I would say this is Nectar’s best all-foam mattress for side sleepers. Strict side sleepers with joint pain will get the cushioning and body contouring they need from this mattress. While testing out the Nectar Luxe on my side, it felt like the bed was hugging my joints.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – I was surprised at how supported I felt while sleeping on my stomach, which usually isn’t the case with foam mattresses. However, I still wouldn’t recommend this mattress to these sleepers. Stomach sleepers should look into something firmer to ensure that their spines remain in a healthy position overnight.
Is the Nectar Luxe a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Back Sleepers – This bed could work for heavier back sleepers. These sleepers shouldn’t sink into anything hard (like the springs or frame), and they will likely get more cushioning from this mattress.
- Heavy Side Sleepers – This bed could work for heavier side sleepers who want a softer mattress. The Nectar Luxe is tall enough that heavier sleepers shouldn’t sink into anything hard (like the springs or frame), and they will likely get more body contouring and cradling from this bed.
- Heavy Stomach Sleepers – I would not recommend this mattress to heavier stomach sleepers. These sleepers would probably sink too far into the mattress overnight and put their spines in an unhealthy position. Overall, I would recommend that heavy sleepers in general opt for a firmer and more supportive mattress. Taking a look at some of the best innerspring mattresses is a great place to start.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Performance
As you saw in my video, I put the Nectar Luxe through a few tests to make sure it’s as high-quality as it seems to be at first glance. Below, I’ll describe the how the mattress performs in areas such as pain relief, motion transfer, cooling, edge support, and more.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Pain Relief Performance
A mattress that helps pain is going to relieve pressure on sensitive areas by evenly distributing your weight. A mattress with good pressure relief will cushion sensitive joints rather than concentrating your body weight around them. Nectar’s memory foam mattresses normally do a great job relieving pressure, so I was excited to test out the Luxe.
To measure pressure relief, I put a pressure map down on the bed and lay down in a few different positions. The map ranges from blue to green in low pressure areas and yellow to red in high pressure areas. Take a look below to see the results of this test.
As you can see, the Luxe did a great job distributing my weight when I was on my back (which is the best position to sleep in if you have back pain). I felt supported and comfortable in this position, and really liked how the Nectar’s top layer of foam filled in my lumbar region. I also think it’s a good mattress for shoulder pain and hip pain, even though we saw more green here on our pressure map test results.
Motion Transfer
When I measure a mattress’s motion transfer, I’m essentially seeing how much movement ripples across its surface when there’s a disturbance. This is important if you share your bed with a partner or pet, because it indicates whether or not you’re going to feel disturbed when they move around at night. I measure motion transfer using a couple of different tests. Let’s take a look at the results.
Human Test
First, I had my coworker move around on the other side of the bed to see how much of his movement I could feel. On the Nectar Luxe, I could barely feel any of his movements, which was promising for its motion-isolating ability.
I didn’t feel him get in and out of bed at all, which is great for folks with partners who frequently wake up in the middle of the night. While I could feel him switch between different sleeping positions, it was very slight and didn’t impact my side of the mattress much.
Water Test
Next, I placed a glass of water next to me on the bed while I moved around. If the liquid stays still, it’s an indicator of good motion isolation. When I got in and out of bed, I saw no movement in the wine glass, and just a little bit of movement when I rolled around. This further confirms that the Nectar Luxe excels at isolating motion.
Seismometer Test
Finally, I used a seismometer to measure the disturbance caused by dropping a steel ball onto the mattress from various heights. The higher the vibration, the bigger the disturbance.
As you can see, those over very low vibrations overall. When taking all of the tests into account, the Luxe had great motion transfer results. If you’re looking for a good mattress for couples, this may be one to consider, since you’re unlikely to feel disturbed by a restless bedmate on this bed.
Responsiveness
To test a mattress’s responsiveness, I lie on it and feel how easy it is to move around. A mattress with high responsiveness makes it easy to switch positions, while a mattress with low responsiveness might give you more of a “stuck” feeling.
The Nectar Luxe has slow-moving foam that cradles you as soon as your body hits the bed. However, this extra cushioning and body contouring comes at a cost. The Nectar Luxe’s responsiveness wasn’t the greatest; I had to put in more effort than usual to switch between different sleeping positions and move around on this mattress.
I would not recommend this mattress to combination sleepers. These sleepers need a more responsive surface that enables them to change between different sleeping positions at night.
Cooling
The Nectar Luxe has a cooling construction that is a nice perk for anyone who shares a bed, since sleeping with a partner tends to generate more body heat than sleeping alone. Its cooling fibers and breathable memory foam went a long way toward regulating my body heat when I rested on it.
And as with all of the mattresses I test at the Sleepopolis lab, I measured the Nectar Luxe surface temperature with a thermal gun. This is a device that uses thermal imaging to show how much a bed heats up after I lie down on it for five minutes. If the temperature increases more than 15 degrees Fahrenheit, I 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.
As you can see above, the Nectar Luxe heated up 2.4 degrees, thus confirming its excellent cooling abilities. I think it’s one of the best cooling mattresses out there, especially for an all-foam bed.
Edge Support
I also tested out the Nectar Luxe’s edge support. Edge support is a measure of whether or not you’ll be able to sleep all the way on the side of your mattress and still feel supported. Most all-foam mattresses don’t offer great edge support, and the Nectar Luxe is no different.
I felt a good amount of sinkage when I both sat and laid on the side of this bed. At some points, I felt like I was going to slip off of the bed. The cooling cover makes the bed even more slippery, but this shouldn’t be an issue once you put sheets on it. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this mattress to couples who use the entire surface of the mattress or people with mobility issues.
When I used a tape measure to see how much the layers collapsed beneath my weight, there was 2.5 inches of sinkage.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Performance for Couples
If you sleep with a partner, you want to keep a few extra things in mind when shopping for a mattress. Ideally, you’ll need a bed that absorbs your partner’s movements, is good for sex, sleeps cool, and has sturdy edges.
When looking at all of these factors, the Nectar Luxe is a good choice for couples with restless partners. It has low motion transfer, meaning you and your partner likely won’t feel each other tossing and turning at night.
However, the Luxe isn’t the most responsive mattress. You and your partner will likely feel trapped and uncomfortable if you are a combination sleeper.

My Final Thoughts about Nectar Luxe Mattress
Well, we’ve reached the end of my review! Still not sure whether or not the Nectar Luxe mattress is for you? I can’t decide for you, but I can leave you with a few final pros and cons that might help.
Who I Recommend the Nectar Luxe Mattress For
- I think side sleepers could really like the slow-moving, body-contouring feel of the Nectar Luxe. It should offer them plenty of pressure relief around the shoulders and hips.
- Back sleepers who prefer a softer mattress might like this bed’s plush feel. It should offer these sleepers a nice balance of pressure relief and support.
- Hot sleepers should appreciate that the Luxe was built to sleep cooler than a traditional memory foam mattress.
Who I don’t Recommend the Nectar Luxe Mattress For
- Heavy sleepers weighing over 250 pounds will probably need a more supportive mattress. I’d recommend these folks check out our best mattresses for heavy people to find some better options.

Nectar Luxe vs Casper
The original Casper is an all-foam bed and one of the most enduring bed-in-a-box mattresses in the game. It’s meant to deliver cushioning at the head and shoulders, with more support toward the center of the bed, where sleepers need it the most. In terms of firmness, we gave the Casper a score of a 7 out of 10 on our mattress firmness scale, making it firmer than many other foam beds.
- Price: Due to its luxury touches, the Nectar Luxe typically costs a couple hundred dollars more than the Casper.
- Sleeping position: Both the Nectar Luxe and Casper cater to average weight side sleepers and back sleepers. The Casper is the more supportive option for stomach sleepers.
- Cooling: Foam mattresses aren’t usually known for their cooling properties, but the Nectar Luxe combats this with its cool-to-the-touch cover and breathable memory foams. We think it slept a bit cooler than the Casper.
- Body weight: Neither mattress is the best choice for heavy side sleepers over 250 pounds.

Paul, Casper customerNectar Luxe vs DreamCloud
The DreamCloud is a hybrid mattress that uses pocketed coil support, unlike the all-foam Nectar Luxe. This layer of springs gives it an overall bouncier feel, allowing you to easily move around and switch sleeping positions.
- Price: While both of these beds are considered luxury mattresses, the Nectar Luxe tends to run a few hundred dollars more than the DreamCloud before discounts.
- Sleeping position: The DreamCloud is a great fit for back sleepers who prefer a firmer feel, although these folks should also be comfortable on the Nectar Luxe. The DreamCloud is a better choice for stomach sleepers who need something firmer to help their spines stay in a neutral position. Side sleepers are going to get more cushioning from the Nectar.
- Cooling: Hot sleepers should be comfortable on either option. The DreamCloud’s springs allow plenty of air to flow through its construction.
- Body weight: Some heavy back sleepers should get the support they need on the DreamCloud. Heavy side sleepers and heavy stomach sleepers should look elsewhere for an especially firm and supportive bed.

Delores E., DreamCloud customerNectar Luxe vs Plank Firm
Even though the Plank Firm is made entirely of foam, it differs from the Nectar Luxe in that it’s flippable, with both a firm side and an extra-firm side. You’re unlikely to get a lot of pressure relief and contouring from this mattress. It’s more for sleepers sinking firmness and support.
- Price: The Plank Firm is much cheaper than the Nectar Luxe, with a queen size often available for under $1,000 after discounts.
- Sleeping position: The Nectar Luxe is the better fit for side sleepers, and the Plank Firm is the better fit for stomach sleepers. Both mattresses are a good option for back sleepers, so they’ll want to decide which level of firmness they prefer.
- Cooling: Both mattresses scored well on cooling, and should be good options for anyone seeking a foam bed that keeps a low temperature.
- Body weight: Heavier back sleepers and stomach sleepers should opt for the Plank Firm.

Brooklyn Bedding Plank Firm Mattress
The Plank mattress is an all-foam, flippable mattress with a firm side and an extra-firm side, which makes it great for both back sleepers and stomach sleepers. Both sides of the mattress should provide stomach sleepers with the right amount of support needed, while back sleepers will be happiest on the firm side.

This is my 4th foam mattress. Lasting firmness is one of the challenges I have come across with the mattresses. This is the most firm I have purchased and after a few weeks, I am still happy.
Ray, Brooklyn Bedding customerBrooklyn Bedding Plank Firm Mattress
The Plank mattress is an all-foam, flippable mattress with a firm side and an extra-firm side, which makes it great for both back sleepers and stomach sleepers. Both sides of the mattress should provide stomach sleepers with the right amount of support needed, while back sleepers will be happiest on the firm side.

Ray, Brooklyn Bedding customerOther Models from Nectar
Nectar also makes two other all-foam mattress models, which I’ll compare to the Premier Copper mattress below. You can also get a more comprehensive side-by-side of all three of these beds in our full Nectar mattress comparison.
Nectar Luxe vs Nectar Classic
As the brand’s flagship model, the original Nectar Classic is an all-foam bed with a more streamlined build and less luxury touches than the Nectar Luxe. Its simple construction consists of an ultra-soft layer of memory foam up top, with a layer of conventional foam in the middle, and a final layer of sturdy support foam at the bottom.
- Price: Because it’s the brand’s luxury model, the Nectar Luxe is consistently more expensive than the original Nectar.
- Sleeping position: Both mattresses should work for back sleepers and side sleepers, although the Nectar Classic is firmer than the Luxe. So if you’re someone who loves that classic slow-moving feel of memory foam, you should go with the Nectar Luxe.
- Cooling: The Nectar Luxe performed better in cooling than its Classic counterpart, likely due to its cooling cover and breathable memory foams.
- Body weight: It’s unlikely that either Nectar model is going to give heavy sleepers the firmness and support they need.

I dreaded paying for a new mattress but my old one was 15 years old…buying a Nectar was the best choice I could have made! It is so comfortable and didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I would absolutely recommend this mattress to anyone!

The original Nectar mattress is a pressure-relieving, yet supportive, bed. It’s made with a thick layer of therapeutic memory foam, which offers sleepers plenty of support and decent body contouring.

Kaitlynne S., Nectar customerNectar Luxe vs Nectar Premier
The Nectar Luxe is more or less an upgrade of the Nectar Premier. The Premier is also a bit firmer, coming in at a 6 out of 10 on our mattress firmness scale (the Nectar Luxe came in at a 5.5).
- Price: The Nectar Luxe consistently costs a lot more money than the Nectar Premier.
- Sleeping position: Side sleepers looking for an ultra-plush feel might like the Nectar Luxe, although they should also be comfortable on the Premier. Back sleepers should also be comfortable on both beds, but stomach sleepers should opt for the Premier.
- Cooling: The Nectar Luxe sleeps cooler than the Nectar Premier.
- Body weight: We don’t think heavy sleepers in any sleeping position are going to be comfortable on either of these mattresses.

After looking for three years and trying three different types of mattresses, we found the one that is just right. Our Nectar mattress is just firm enough yet cozy and comfy too. I no longer wake up with my hips and lower back hurting and my husband’s neck pain is gone. If you’ve been searching for the perfect mattress, this is it!

Gabrielle A., Nectar customerOur 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.
