Considerations:

• Latex does not conform as closely as memory foam

• The bed's medium firmness level may not provide enough support for sleepers over 230 pounds, whereas the firm feel might not contour closely enough for people who weigh less than 130 pounds.

Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid Video Review

Watch the video below to see how the Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid performed when put to the test in our lab.

Mattress Performance

The thick latex comfort layer of the Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress absorbs movements. This results in better motion isolation than the average latex hybrid mattress.

That being said, latex does not absorb motion as well as memory foam. The coil support base helps facilitate movement, though each coil is individually encased to minimize motion transfer. As a result, the Bloom mattress balances motion isolation with ease of movement.

Those who share the bed shouldn’t feel smaller movements like shifting positions, but may feel their partner get in and out of bed.

The Bloom Hybrid relieves pressure with moderate contouring and a responsive comfort layer. Latex does not cradle the body in the same way that memory foam and polyfoam might, so sleepers won’t sink in deeply.

The Bloom mattress has a supportive coil base that keeps the spine aligned while alleviating pressure on the body. Each coil is individually encased, allowing the mattress to respond proportionately to deep compression areas.

The latex comfort layer is buoyant, so most will feel they are sleeping on top of the mattress, rather than in it.

The natural materials of the Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress ensure ample airflow and breathability. The quilted cover uses cotton and wool, which wick away heat and moisture. Wool acts as natural insulation and regulates temperature. It draws heat away from the body when it is warm and offers warmth when it is cooler.

Natural latex is more breathable than memory foam or polyfoam, and the Bloom mattress uses Talalay latex in its comfort system. This type of latex is light and airy compared to Dunlop latex, which is more dense.

The coil base allows for plenty of airflow throughout the mattress. This helps dissipate heat to keep you cool throughout the night.

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress has a coil support base, which is reinforced with high-density polyfoam. Buoyant latex in the comfort system prevents sagging. The combination of these materials provides consistent support for sleeping near the edge of the bed and prevents the feeling of rolling off.

The Bloom is a solid choice for those who need ample edge support when getting in and out of bed, or for those who regularly sit on the edge of the bed. Edge support is ideal for couples, as it increases the usable surface area of the bed.

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress is rated highly for ease of movement, due to the buoyant latex comfort layer and coil support base. Generally, hybrid mattresses offer better ease of movement than foam mattresses.

There is ample bounce to the mattress. This helps facilitate movement and makes it easy to change positions. This is ideal for combination sleepers and couples.

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress is conducive to sexual activity. The buoyant latex layer and coil support base provide ample bounce, making it easy to change positions as needed.

The edge support of the mattress allows couples to use the entire surface area of the bed. The coils produce minimal noise, so it’s also a discreet choice.

There is an initial off-gassing odor when the Bloom Hybrid mattress is first unboxed. The mattress construction includes latex and polyfoam, which are susceptible to off-gassing. This is not considered harmful and should dissipate within a couple of days. The smell is minimal when compared to an all-foam mattress.

The coils of the Bloom mattress aid airflow, which helps dissipate the smell quickly. Placing the mattress in a well-ventilated room will also help.

Side Sleepers:
The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid offers moderate contouring for side sleepers. The thick comfort layer of latex relieves pressure on the hips and shoulders, while the coil support core helps keep the spine aligned.

Bloom Hybrids with the medium (5) feel are best suited to side sleepers who weigh up to 230 pounds. These models contour somewhat closely to cushion the spine and alleviate pressure points that often form due to using the side position.

The feel of the firm (7) Bloom Hybrid is highly supportive, and side sleepers who weigh more than 230 pounds will find the mattress keeps their spine and hips aligned. The combination of latex and coils keeps pressure from building up in these areas, and the comfort layer is cushioning and responsive.

Back Sleepers:
The combination of a responsive latex comfort system and coil support core is ideal for back sleepers. This level of firmness balances contouring and full-body support to keep the spine in alignment. Back sleepers are able to maintain a neutral posture.

The best ratings for the firm (7) Bloom Hybrid came from back sleepers who weigh between 130 and 230 pounds. Those who weigh more than 230 pounds also rated this version of the Bloom Hybrid favorably. For the medium (5) model, back sleepers weighing less than 130 pounds found this mattress more comfortable than those who weigh more.

Stomach Sleepers:
The Bloom Hybrid mattress has benefits for stomach sleepers. The responsive latex cushions the chest and shoulders, while the added firmness keeps the hips and abdomen on top of the mattress. This keeps the spine in alignment and prevents lower back pain. It also ensures that the chest and shoulders are comfortable.

We found that the medium (5) feel was most comfortable for stomach sleepers weighing less than 130 pounds. For firm (7) Bloom Hybrid models, stomach sleepers who weigh between 130 and 230 pounds awarded the highest ratings.

Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Mattress Review Breakdown

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress is made with natural, sustainable materials. It has a wool, cotton, and latex comfort system with a pocketed coil support base.

The cover of the Bloom Hybrid mattress is quilted with organic cotton and Joma wool. Joma wool is crimped for added volume without unnecessary weight. These natural materials wick away heat and moisture. The plush top adds softness to the mattress while regulating temperature. The 14-inch Bloom Hybrid’s cover is slightly thicker than that of the 11-inch model, resulting in a slightly plusher surface feel.

Beneath the cover is a comfort layer of natural Talalay latex. This layer measures 1.5 inches in the 11-inch model and 3 inches in the 14-inch model. Talalay latex is more breathable than Dunlop latex, and allows for additional airflow throughout the mattress. It is also resistant to mildew, mold, and dust mites. This buoyant material offers ease of movement and pressure relief. It contours gently to the shape of the body, preventing the feeling of sinking in. The 11-inch model also contains a transitional layer of dense polyfoam.

The support core includes pocketed coils. The coils are individually encased, which allows them to respond individually to pressure. This minimizes motion transfer, so those who share the bed are less likely to feel their partner’s movements throughout the night. The responsive coils also alleviate pressure points. The support base is reinforced by a layer of high-density polyfoam. This adds durability to the mattress.

Prices and Sizing

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress is competitively priced for a natural latex hybrid bed. Many latex hybrid mattresses cost $2,000 or more. While the 14-inch model’s prices are on par with that of the average latex hybrid, the 11-inch model costs much less. Brooklyn Bedding ships direct to customers, which keeps their overhead costs low and mattress prices competitive. The company also offers seasonal sales and promotions.

The comfort system of the Bloom Hybrid mattress is made with durable, natural materials. The coil base provides consistent support. Though it is a newer mattress, we expect it to have a better than average lifespan based on the materials and construction. This makes the mattress a sound investment.

The Brooklyn Bedding Bloom Hybrid mattress is available in standard sizes, twin through California king. Brooklyn Bedding also offers custom sizing. The Bloom mattress has a height of either 11 or 14 inches. The higher profile may require deep pocket sheets.
