The Dreamcloud Luxury Hybrid mattress has a name that promises a lot. When Dream and Cloud are put together in a title that describes how a mattress performs, you’re truly expecting a heavenly🌥 sleep. Thankfully, according to the many reviews, it is apparent that the Dreamcloud Hybrid lives up to its name with the average rating of buyers of the mattress not dropping below 4.5 stars out of 5, becoming the most popular🤴 of the Dreamcloud range, overshadowing the Dreamcloud Premier Mattress, with the Dreamcloud Premier mattress even costing more. Being owned by the same company as Nectar sleep which produced the also very popular Nectar Mattress, the signs seem⭐ to be favorable. We have done the heavy analyses 🕵️♀️and research and have laid it all out, so we can explore whether you’d also be one of those singing praise about the Dreamcloud hybrid mattress, raving about it to your doctor👨⚕️ and the bus driver🚍 or whether you’d be scratching your head over the building reputation of the Dreamcloud Hybrid. Let’s see how it is crafted and what that brings to the mattress and if its high mid-range pricing reflects its level of overall quality.
At the very top is the diamond-patterned 💎cover which brings the luxury to Dreamcloud Luxury with its velvety surface since the material is of a cashmere blend. Attached on the sides are four handles which make the mattress easy to move around or flip. It is even constructed👷♂️ with foam in the quilting which adds plushness to the surface. The cover can even be topped with the Dreamcloud mattress protector. This mattress protector helps to shield the cover and rest of the mattress.
Beneath the quilted cover is this memory foam layer that interpolates gel into the structure. As memory foam is known for being quite poor when it comes to transferring heat🌋 out of the mattress, the inclusion of gel allows for heat to become dissipated with most mattresses using the phase-changing gel which absorbs heat before transferring✈ it away whether that be initially as beads or a substance infused into the foam.
This layer of the foam mattress is considered to be the transitional layer of the mattress, so it is there to act as the mediator between the firmness of the lower levels and the plushness 🐑of the comfort layer, bringing a balance between the two.
The polyurethane foam which is used in the Dreamcloud Luxury Hybrid is common in most transition layers in hybrids. Polyurethane foam, or poly foam, due to not having the same qualities as a pure memory foam mattress, adds a sturdiness 🧱that combines well with the levels below.
The mattress is made up of 5 layers, which consist of PU foam, gel memory foam and pocket-sprung coils. Altogether this brings the mattress to a height 🦒of 29cm. With the industry-wide mattress thickness standard being 25cm, the mattress clearly goes that extra mile 🐾and the thickness of the mattress contributes to the comfort and luxury experienced whilst you sleep.
The core of the mattress is composed of pocket-sprung coils. This spring layer is the main level of support for the mattress. This core is 15cm in height, so as its thickness makes up more than half of the mattress’s overall height its qualities will have a significant influence on the Dreamcloud’s performance. The pocket springs in the Activedge support core move independently from each other with each coil having isolated compression. This allows for a high level of adaptability and sets it apart from the innerspring mattresses which almost offer no capacity to contour to the shape of your body.
At the bottom, just above the bed frame acting as the foundation of the foam mattress is the second poly foam layer. The foam is of a high density which places it at over 1.7 pounds per cubic foot. 🦶Since the material is very dense, the foam is more tightly constructed than the polyurethane layer in the upper☝ region of the mattress which boosts the firmness of the mattress and gives it supportive🤝 benefits.
The motion isolation of the Dreamcloud is exceptional mainly due to the Activedge spring support core. The isolated movement of the individual pocket springs contains motion well, so movement on one side of the bed is not transmitted to the other. The behavior of the pocketed coils makes the Dreamcloud hybrid an excellent 🌟choice for sleeping couples 👫where motion can easily be exchanged and cause a disturbance.
The Activedge spring coil core is key to the thermal regulation of the mattress. It complements the heat-dissipating gel memory foam that is above with its structure. The gaps between the pocketed coils allow for air to be circulated. 💨This prevents heat from staying around and making your sleep a nightmare. The thermal-regulation qualities of the gel infused memory foam are enhanced by the open-cell structure foam of the memory foam. The open cells, that do not have enclosing walls🚧 which trap air, keep heat flowing throughout the foam and this reduces warmth in the mattress and keeps you cool whilst you sleep.
The Dreamcloud is measured to be quite high in firmness, so heavier sleepers💤 are adequately supported. As a hybrid composed of foam layers, the mattress does get a bit softer than its initial state bringing it to what is termed as ‘luxury firm’. 👑This is a fancy way of acknowledging that the mattress is firm, but with cushioned padding. 🌥This is mainly because of the memory foam of the comfort layer which brings balance to the firmness.
The Dreamcloud has been found to be excellent for stomach-sleepers of light to an average weight due to the pinpoint pressure relief it offers. For those stomach sleepers, the mattress’s pressure relief ensures that extra support is provided in the stomach area. However, the memory foam properties are not able to shine through enough to alleviate tension building in the hips and shoulder regions. This makes it not excellent for reducing pressure for side-sleepers who are an average or lower weight. For your head and neck, the Dreamcloud pillow could be the best pillow for support there.
The soft memory layer being close to the top, which acts as the comfort layer according to the customary hybrid layering system brings adaptability to the mattress due to its viscoelastic qualities which will allow it to shape neatly around your body, but is somewhat dulled by the polyfoam.
The Dreamcloud promotes spinal neutrality very well because the supportive transitional layer of the polyurethane foam prevents you from sinking too far into the mattress upon the bed frame which will upset your spinal alignment and is likely to cause back problems
The main support system of the Activedge springs keeps the layers above sturdy from end to end, so the edges of the mattress are not slack concerning the more central parts and won’t have roll-off problems which make people cautious of sleeping near the edges. This also makes the Dreamcloud Hybrid a strong contender for the best hybrid mattress for sleeping couples as it opens up the supporting surface layer, providing more room. This in turn assists with weight distribution and brings much comfort.
This is a by-product of foam production, so there will be an element of that to this mattress. However, since the gel infused memory foam has an open-cell structure it will not trap a lot of gasses, so the levels of Volatile Organic Compounds that are released upon the opening of the mattress will be low.
The Dreamcloud hybrid mattress has the CertiPur certification to its name which requires that no heavy metals like mercury, cadmium, or lead were used in its production. In addition, no damaging dyes were incorporated in the making of the mattress.
The cashmere-blend cover does much for the breathability of the mattress. Cashmere comes naturally with moisture-wicking properties, so the material allows for the free passage of air and moisture.💦 Not only does this mean that you will be kept cool by the consistent airflow, but it also means that your sweat will be wicked away, so you can sleep comfortably.💤
The high density of the memory has a large impact on the durability of the mattress since the density makes it less susceptible to wear and losing its support. As a result, the mattress should be able to perform close to its optimal levels throughout a long lifetime.📆
