Puffy Lux Hybrid Overview
The Puffy brand was launched by Arthur Andreasyan, who states that his ultimate goal was to provide people with products that make it feel like they are sleeping on a cloud. After testing out this mattress, I can definitely say that the Puffy Lux Hybrid does have a soft, cloud-like feel to it, thanks to its balance of pressure relief and bounce.
However, this cloud feel shouldn’t give sleepers the impression that they are “sinking” too far into the layers of this bed. As a hybrid mattress, the Puffy Lux Hybrid includes both plush foams and pocketed innerspring coils in its construction. This allows for the Puffy Lux Hybrid to provide some initial sinkage, but overall, the responsiveness of the coils should make sure that sleepers still feel supported and contoured by this mattress.
As a bed-in-a-box mattress, the Puffy Lux Hybrid will ship compressed straight to your door, and it will have to be unboxed. As with all bed-in-a-box mattresses, you’ll need to wait at least 24 hours for this bed to fully decompress. The Puffy Lux Hybrid might emit a smell when it is first unboxed. If you detect an odor, I recommend unzipping the mattress cover and leaving this bed in a well-ventilated room for a few days until the smell completely dissipates.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Video Review
Want a visual look at the Puffy Lux Hybrid? Check out our video review, where I’ll share my thoughts on how well it performed in a variety of different categories. Overall, the Puffy Lux Hybrid scored a 4.2 out of 5, after combining all of its individual scores.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Sleepopolis Score
The Puffy Lux Hybrid scored the lowest on edge support and trial period. The mattress might compress and sink a little around the sides — something that can be frustrating for couples and sleepers who tend to move around a lot during the night. If you’re looking for a mattress with stronger edge support, check out our roundup of the best mattresses for couples, which should have some more options. In terms of trial period, sleepers can test the Puffy Lux Hybrid for 101 nights. While that’s a decent trial period, many other brands offer 365 nights or more. You can read about some of them in our list of the best mattresses that won’t sag.
What Is the Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Made Of?
The Puffy Lux is a hybrid mattress, meaning it contains layers of foam and pocketed coils. All in all, the Puffy Lux Hybrid includes four layers of foam and one layer of coils. All of the foams used in the construction of the Puffy Lux Hybrid are CertiPUR-US® Certified, which means they’re free from harmful chemicals and heavy metals. Keep reading to get a closer look at each layer included in the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
Cover – The stain resistant mattress cover included on the Puffy Lux Hybrid is made of a thin polyester blend, which is stain-resistant, hypoallergenic, and machine washable.
Comfort Layer – Below the cover, the Puffy Lux Hybrid includes two layers of polyurethane foam. The top layer is a Cooling Cloud foam, and the second layer is Plush Dual Cloud foam. Both of these foams offer the pressure-relieving feel of memory foam, but they are a little bit more breathable and responsive.
Transition Layer – Below the cushioning foam layers, you’ll land on a section of Climate Comfort foam — a material that has a bit more bounce to it. The main function of this layer is to curb the deep sinkage of the top sections of foam and gradually ease the sleeper onto the firmer support of the coils below. The foams in this layer also help to wick away moisture, preventing sleepers from overheating during the night.
Support Layer – The firm core support layer in this mattress consists of pocketed coils. These coils add some lift and bounce to the Puffy Lux Hybrid, plus they are individually wrapped, which helps with temperature regulation.
Edge Support – Wrapped around the coils in the support layer is a section of dense poly foam to help reinforce the edges of the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Firmness
It can often be difficult to ascertain exactly how firm a mattress is, mostly because the feel of a bed varies so much from person to person. How firm a mattress feels will depend on your body type, sleeping position, and other factors. Because of this subjectivity, what seems firm or soft to me could feel totally different to you.
In order to get an overall perspective, I asked some colleagues to help me test out the Puffy Lux Hybrid and provide their input on its firmness level. Each mattress tester lied down on the Puffy Lux Hybrid separately, and then they gave it their own score from 1 to 10. On the firmness scale, a 1 is equates to an especially soft mattress, while a 10 equates to an especially firm mattress. We average all of these individual scores together before we give the mattress its final firmness rating.
While resting on this bed, I felt myself sinking down into the Puffy Lux Hybrid’s foam layers quite a bit. Overall, we gave the Puffy Lux Hybrid a 5.5 out of 10 on the mattress firmness scale. For reference, the industry standard for a medium-firm mattress is a 6.5 on the scale. Because of this, the Puffy Lux Hybrid is definitely a softer bed.
We recommend this mattress for the following sleeper types: Financing options are available for this mattress. The Puffy Lux Hybrid mattress is a soft model combining foam layers and individually pocketed coils for a cushioned feel with some bounce. It provides great pressure relief, making it a nice fit for side, back, or side-back combo sleepers.

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 rule, 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 Puffy Lux Hybrid a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – Light back sleepers tend to feel mattresses as a bit firmer than advertised, so I think this bed would be a pretty good option for these folks, especially if they typically prefer a softer bed. However, despite the pocketed coils deep in its structure, the Puffy Lux Hybrid definitely falls on the soft side of the firmness scale, so some back sleepers may desire more support.
- Light Side Sleepers – Light side sleepers should really enjoy this mattress. The Puffy Lux Hybrid should hug these sleepers’ sensitive joints in a soothing way, providing additional pain relief.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – I’d recommend that light stomach sleepers opt for a firmer bed that will be able to keep their hips lifted in line with their shoulders to ensure a healthy spinal alignment.
Is the Puffy Lux Hybrid a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130–250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – If you are a back sleeper who likes a softer mattress, the Puffy Lux Hybrid could be a great selection for you. Its soft foam layers provide a comfortable “sinking” feeling to this mattress, but the pocketed coils should provide plenty of support. All and all, the combination of these materials should evenly distribute sleepers’ weight, providing them with plush comfort and strong support.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – I think the Puffy Lux Hybrid will be best suited to average weight side sleepers. These sleepers need extra pressure relief at the shoulders and hips, something they should be able to find on this cloud-like mattress.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – I would steer stomach sleepers away from the Puffy Lux Hybrid, since they usually need a much firmer mattress to keep their spines in a healthy alignment. Plus, the slight “sinking” that comes with this mattress might leave stomach sleepers with unwanted back pain or soreness.
Is the Puffy Lux Hybrid a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (Over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Back Sleepers – Heavy sleepers will most likely not receive the support they need from the Puffy Lux Hybrid. Instead, these sleepers should opt for a firmer bed with better edge support. If this sounds like you, check out our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.

Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Performance
How firm or soft a bed feels is pretty subjective, so I always run some other, more specific tests on a new mattress to see exactly how it performs for different kinds of sleepers. To really determine whether a bed is a good match for your individual needs and preferences, it’s also important to consider how it relieves pain and pressure, how it might feel for couples sharing the bed, and more.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Pain Relief Performance
One of the most important tests we perform on our mattresses is something called a pressure map test. This evaluation helps us determine how well a certain bed responds to pressure points along the body while you’re on top of it.
To test the Puffy Lux Hybrid for pressure relief, I use something called a pressure map. This is a mat you can unroll on top of a mattress in order to visualize the pressure of your body on the bed when you lie down. This map creates a color-coded diagram of where, and how much, pressure was present on the bed. Green and blue equate to low-pressure, and yellow and red equate to high pressure. The Puffy Lux Hybrid’s pressure map results are outlined below.
However, before reading this section, it‘s important to note that sleepers should always keep their preferred sleeping position in mind while analyzing the pressure relieving capabilities of a mattress. For example, the Puffy Lux Hybrid isn’t the best mattress for stomach sleepers of any weight, so even if this mattress does a good job eliminating pressure around the hips, these sleepers are most likely still going to want to opt for a firmer bed.
As you can see, these are pretty great pressure map results. On my back, there is almost no pressure showing at all, as the area lit up entirely blue. This bodes well for back sleepers, as they shouldn’t feel pressure or pain around their lumbar region. While there are some yellow spots around the hips and shoulders, I don’t think this represents enough pressure to be concerning for side sleepers.
Motion Transfer
Now let’s move on to motion transfer. Motion transfer measures the level of movement that is able to travel across a bed’s surface from one side to the other. Ultimately, this test determines how much a bedmate’s (or pet’s) movement are likely to disturb you during the night.
We run a couple of different tests to evaluate a mattress’s motion isolation abilities. First, we lie down on the mattress next to a colleague, both of us move around, and we take note of how much movement we feel from the opposite side of the bed. Next, we put a full glass of wine on one side of the bed, toss and turn on the other side, and then see how much the wine sloshed or spilled. Finally, we drop a 10-pound steel ball from heights of four inches, eight inches, and 12 inches and then use a seismometer to measure the disturbance it caused. In the end, the bigger the lines, the bigger the disturbance.
The Puffy Lux Hybrid showed really low levels of motion transfer, so I would definitely recommend this mattress to couples or customers with pets. If you share your bed, or if you’re an especially light sleeper, this mattress could be a real winner for you, as the Puffy Lux Hybrid should dissipate movement before it reaches your side of the bed.
Responsiveness
A responsive bed reacts quickly to pressure, making it easy to move around on. We test how responsive a mattress is by pressing our hand into the top of the bed, then see how quickly the surface returns to its original shape.
The Puffy Lux Hybrid isn’t the easiest mattress to move around on. The top layers of foam definitely give this bed more of a “sinking” feel, so it does take a little effort to move from one position to another. This might be difficult for combination sleepers, who need to be able to easily switch positions easily during the night, and couples, as this bed isn’t the best for sex. Instead, these sleepers can check out our roundup of the best mattresses for combination sleepers.
Cooling
When it comes to cooling, the most important factor to look at is what materials the mattress uses in its construction. Innerspring and hybrid beds are typically going to be the most cooling because of the breathable coils in their construction, while all-foam beds have a reputation for overheating.
As a hybrid mattress, the Puffy Lux Hybrid should be able to keep sleepers fairly cool throughout the night. This bed does incorporate some cooling technology in its foam layers, but the biggest component of its cooling capabilities is definitely its hybrid construction. Having large sections of coils allows for lots of airflow within this bed for hot air to escape.
Edge Support
Last but not least, I tested out the edge support on the Puffy Lux Hybrid. Edge support measures how well the sides of a mattress can support weight. This is especially important for active sleepers who tend to spread out during the night, and couples who might want to take advantage of the full surface area of their mattress.
When I was lying close to the edge of the Puffy Lux Hybrid, I did feel the soft foam top layers compressing and collapsing a little bit under my weight. This shows that the edge support on the Puffy Lux Hybrid isn’t fantastic. While this is pretty normal for a mattress that contains soft foams, I do want to note that I wouldn’t recommend this mattress for heavier folks, or anyone worried about sliding off the bed at night. Instead, I would recommend that these sleepers check out our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Performance For Couples
Couples are most likely going to be especially interested in the factors we outlined above (motion transfer, responsiveness, cooling, and edge support). Based on these tests, I’d say that the Puffy Lux Hybrid is fine for couples, but it’s not ideal. The impressive motion isolation abilities and solid cooling are great additions, but the low responsiveness isn’t great for sex, and the lackluster edge support means couples most likely won’t be able to adequately use the entire surface area of their mattress.

So, is the Puffy Lux Hybrid the best mattress for you? Obviously, I can’t answer that question for you, but I can outline a few of my favorite things, as well as list some of my least favorite things to help you find a conclusion on your own.
Who I recommend the Puffy Lux Hybrid mattress for
- This is a really soft, plush mattress, thanks to the top foam layers included in its construction. I would recommend this bed for sleepers who like some sinkage throughout the night, but don’t want to feel totally swallowed up by their mattress.
- I really like soft mattresses for strict side sleepers, and this one is no exception. Side sleepers should really enjoy the way the Puffy Lux Hybrid cushions sensitive pressure points around the shoulders and hips.
- This mattress is also a good option for people who suffer from shoulder pain. The foam layers allow sleepers to sink down into this mattress, without putting too much pressure on their shoulders and hips — something that could help prevent pain and soreness when lying down.
Who I don’t recommend the Puffy Lux Hybrid for
- Based on my tests, I wouldn’t recommend the Puffy Lux Hybrid for stomach sleepers. Because this mattress is so soft, stomach sleepers might find that their hips are sinking down into the bed and out of line with their shoulders, leading to an unhealthy spinal alignment. If this sounds like you, I’d recommend checking out our roundup of the best mattresses for stomach sleepers.
- This mattress definitely has more of a plushy feel to it, which might not be a great experience for heavy sleepers (those over 250 pounds), since it isn’t especially durable or supportive. Instead, I’d recommend that these sleepers check out our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.

Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress Vs
To see how the Puffy Lux Hybrid stacks up against the competition, I’ve compared it to two of its biggest competitors — the DreamCloud Premier and the Nectar Mattress — to help you decide. Read about their similarities and differences below.
Puffy Lux Hybrid vs DreamCloud Premier
Both the Puffy Lux Hybrid and the DreamCloud Premiere are hybrid mattresses, so they include foam and coil layers in their constructions. However, the DreamCloud Premier is quite a bit firmer than the Puffy Lux Hybrid (with a score of 7 on the firmness scale, compared to a score of 5.5). Because of this, the DreamCloud Premier is going to be the better option for stomach and heavier sleepers, while the Puffy Lux Hybrid is a better bet for side sleepers and those needing more pressure relief during the night.
- Price: The Puffy Lux Hybrid is just slightly more experience than the DreamCloud Premier. A queen sized Puffy Lux Hybrid mattress costs around $1,799, while a queen sized DreamCloud Premier mattress costs around $1,599.
- Sleeping position: The DreamCloud Premier is quite a bit firmer than the Puffy Lux Hybrid, as it scored a 7 on our firmness scale, making it firmer than the industry standard for a medium-firm bed. Because of this, the DreamCloud Premier is a better choice for back sleepers, while side sleepers are most likely going to want to stick with the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Cooling: Both of these options are hybrid mattresses, so they include coils in their construction that promote airflow and breathability. However, the DreamCloud Premier does not include any cooling technologies in its form layers, while the Puffy Lux Hybrid does. If you’re prone to overheating during the night, I would opt for the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Body weight: Since the DreamCloud Premier is quite a bit firmer than the Puffy Lux Hybrid, it is definitely the better option for heavier sleepers, as they should receive the support they need to stay elevated and supported throughout the night.
Find out more in my full DreamCloud Premier mattress review.
The DreamCloud Premier is a hybrid, bed-in-a-box mattress that feels very luxurious and offers lots of firm support and soft pressure relief. It's a great choice for back sleepers and combination sleepers, who should appreciate its responsiveness.

Puffy Lux Hybrid vs Nectar Mattress
The main difference between the Puffy Lux Hybrid and the Nectar mattress is the construction. While the Puffy Lux is a hybrid mattress, the Nectar is entirely made out of foam, with no coils present. Because of this, the Nectar is going to have more of that traditional “sinking” feel to it, while the Puffy Lux Hybrid is going to have some added support and durability.
- Price: The Puffy Lux Hybrid is definitely the more expensive mattress out of the two. A queen sized Puffy Lux Hybrid costs around $1,799, while a queen sized Nectar mattress costs around $999.
- Sleeping position: The Nectar scored a 6 on the firmness scale, so it’s pretty similar to the Puffy Lux Hybrid when it comes to firmness. However, the Nectar is an all-foam mattress, while the Puffy Lux Hybrid is, obviously, a hybrid. If you prefer more “sinkage” in your bed, I would recommend the Nectar, but if you still want some support overall, I would opt for the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Cooling: As an all-foam bed, the Nectar is not the most cooling mattress on the market. I’d recommend that hot sleepers and couples opt for the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Body weight: Neither of these mattresses is going to be firm enough for heavy sleepers. Instead, these customers can check out our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.

We recommend this mattress for the following sleeper types: Financing options are available for this mattress. 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 gel memory foam, which allows the sleeper to really sink into its surface.

The original Nectar mattress is a pressure-relieving, yet supportive, bed. It’s made with a thick layer of gel memory foam, which allows the sleeper to really sink into its surface.

Other Models from Puffy
The Puffy Lux Hybrid has a few key differences when you compare it to other beds manufactured by the same company. With that in mind, I thought I’d offer some quick comparisons between the Puffy Lux Hybrid and a few of Puffy’s other mattress models.
Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress vs Original Puffy Mattress
The Original Puffy mattress is an all-foam bed, so it does not include any coils in its construction. However, this mattress is actually firmer than the Puffy Lux Hybrid, as it scored a 6 on our firmness scale. Because of this, the Original Puffy is most likely going to be the better bed option for back sleepers, while side sleepers are still going to want to stick with the Puffy Lux Hybrid. In general, neither of these mattresses are firm enough for stomach sleepers.
- Price: The Puffy Lux Hybrid is more expensive than the Original Puffy mattress. A queen sized Puffy Lux Hybrid costs around $1,799, while a queen sized Original Puffy costs around $1,249.
- Sleeping position: The Original Puffy mattress is slightly firmer than the Puffy Lux Hybrid, as it scored a 6 on the firmness scale. I’d recommend that back sleepers opt for the Original Puffy, while side sleepers should probably stick with the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Cooling: Because the Original Puffy is an all-foam bed, it doesn’t have the added airflow and breathability that the Puffy Lux Hybrid achieves from its layer of coils. I’d recommend that hot sleepers opt for the Puffy Lux Hybrid.
- Body weight: Neither one of these beds is going to be firm enough to support heavy sleepers. Instead, I’d point these sleepers to our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.

We recommend this mattress for the following sleeper types: Financing options are available for this mattress. I love this mattress. I wake up rested and with energy. Before I was sleeping on a traditional mattress and I would wake up 3 to 4 times at night trying to find the right spot. I don't weak up in middle of the night. It was worth every penny!!!
The Puffy Cloud is an all-foam bed-in-a-box with a medium firmness that is great for a wide range of sleepers. It also does a good job of reducing aches and pains, thanks to its balance of support and pressure relief.

Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress vs Puffy Royal Hybrid Mattress
These are definitely the most similar mattresses on this list. Both the Puffy Lux Hybrid and the Puffy Royal Hybrid are hybrid mattresses that combine foam and coils layers, and they both scored a 5.5 on our firmness scale. However, the Puffy Royal Hybrid is quite a bit more expensive than the Puffy Lux Hybrid — something to keep in mind if you’re a budget-conscious shopper.
- Price: The Puffy Royal Hybrid is much more expensive than the Puffy Lux Hybrid, with a queen sized mattress costing around $2,699. For comparison, a queen sized Puffy Lux Hybrid costs around $1,799.
- Sleeping position: Because these beds are hybrid mattresses that scored a 5.5 on the firmness scale, they’re both going to be best for side sleepers and back sleepers who prefer a softer mattress.
- Cooling: Once again, because the construction of these mattresses is so similar, they are both strong options for hot sleepers and couples with double the body heat in their bed.
- Body weight: Neither one of these mattresses is firm enough to provide heavy sleepers with the support and durability that they need. Instead, these sleepers should take a look at our roundup of the best mattresses for heavy people.

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.
