YogaBed Review - Is The YogaBed Mattress Good For You?

If you're in the market for a new bed, you've probably come across a handful of companies claiming to be the best of the best, or maybe you've already read you fair share of mattress reviews.

The truth is, many beds, especially ones in a similar price range, are of similar quality. What makes mattresses unique is not their quality, but their features and firmness.

When it comes to mid-premium level mattresses, YogaBed is a strong contender.  This mattress is an all foam mattress that provides a medium firm feel with cooling properties that's great for almost all types of sleepers, with only a few exceptions.

In this Yogabed review, we're going to cover some of the basics of the YogaBed, along with its pros, cons, and unique features.

Let's get started!

Build Quality:

When we do mattress reviews, we like to look at a handful of things, one of which is overall build quality. The mattress itself is made out of 4 layers of response foam for instant response to pressure. The bottom layer is a dense foam that provides most of the support. 

The second, and thickest layer, is a traditional memory foam layer that helps with pressure relief and motion isolation, which is great for side sleepers and stomach sleepers. 

The 3rd layer is where the high density yoga foam comes in. This layer is designed to add extra support and dissipate heat. 

The top layer is another form of yoga foam, but instead of memory foam, it's a neutral foam. This gives the mattress all the benefits of memory foam without the difficulty of moving around. 

Instead of feeling like you're sinking into a marshmallow, this mattress feels more like you're sleeping on the mattress instead of in it. Ultimately, this is a comfort preference, but is traditionally preferred by back and stomach sleepers, and less comfortable for side sleepers.

One of the biggest things we loved about the YogaBed is also a feature that makes it stand out: its removable mattress cover. 

The zipper for the cover is right in the middle of the mattress, making it easy to take on and off. 

Along with being easy to remove, the cover is also machine washable. This mattress cover is unmatched among competitors and is one of our favorite features of this foam mattress.

Combination Foam

Some memory foam mattresses are nothing more than a slab of "proprietary" memory foam. The problem with memory foam is that while yes, it's supportive, it also tends to be very warm and restrictive. 

Since the YogaBed uses four layers of unique foam, you get the best of multiple foam types. This makes a mattress that is soft yet supportive, cradling yet not restrictive, and soft yet cool. 

Bed in A Box

Not a unique feature to the YogaBed, but the whole bed in a box idea is something you should be ready for. The YogaBed will arrive in a pretty big box. You'll have to slice open a bag and let the mattress expand within your bed frame. 

Mattresses like this are almost never ready to be slept on immediately. The YogaBed will require at least an hour to expand fully, but won't get to its actual level of firmness until about a day later. 

Comfort Level:

When it comes to buying a mattress, one of the most important factors is comfort. This, along with the build quality, are what differentiates low quality and high quality mattresses.

The comfort level of the YogaBed is ideal if you're looking for a medium-firm mattress. The multiple layers provide enough support to appease those who like a firmer mattress but may be a little too firm if you're a side sleeper who likes a softer feel. 

The edge support on the YogaBed is excellent among memory foam mattresses, making it a great choice for couples. Since it's a pretty true medium, most people will find the YogaBed comfortable unless you like a very firm or very soft mattress.

Pricing:

Pricing for the YogaBed tends to vary, as do most mattress comparisons out there. There's also a fair amount of sales running at any given time. For the most part, if you're considering the YogaBed, you can expect to pay around $950 for a queen size. 

Obviously, this will vary depending on the time of year and what size mattress you go for, as well as any add-ons, but that's generally what you can expect.
