DreamCloud Premier Hybrid Mattress Review: Expert Tested

“As you might expect from a mattress with memory foam, the DreamCloud Premier was effective at keeping vibrations from traveling across the mattress.” – Danny

The DreamCloud Premier Hybrid offers couples and bed partners a high degree of motion isolation. With two memory foam layers, the mattress compresses only where weight is directly applied, which helps reduce disruptions from movement on the other side of the bed.

We found that motion isolation was slightly better on the all-foam model. The hybrid has a bit of bounce from the coils. That said, couples using either model can expect only the lightest of motion transfer.

“I really appreciated the ability of this mattress to cushion my hips and shoulders without feeling excessively soft. I didn’t feel any pressure buildup and got out of bed without aches and pains.” – Logan

Pressure relief is one of the standout characteristics of the DreamCloud Premier. Its combination of foam layers creates a compelling balance of comfort and support. There’s enough tailored cushioning to enhance spinal alignment, and there’s enough firmness to keep you from feeling like you’re sinking into the mattress.

The pressure relief is almost the same in the two models, but some of our testers felt that the hybrid gave a touch more support thanks to bounce and sturdiness.

“I can’t say that the DreamCloud Premier slept cool, per se, but I also didn’t wake up in a sweat. For a mattress with two layers of memory foam, that’s a solid level of temperature neutrality.” – Brad

Temperature control is about average on the DreamCloud Premier. The memory foam layers are infused with gel to decrease heat retention, but there can still be some warmth that collects in the foams. In most cases, it’s not enough to make you overheat, but people who are naturally hot sleepers may not be the best match for this mattress.

Of the two models, the hybrid sleeps cooler because the coils permit considerably more ventilation than the high-density polyfoam in the support core of the all-foam version.

“The edges of the hybrid model felt really secure to me, even when sitting on the edge of the bed.” – Danny

Our testing team raved about the edge support on the hybrid model of the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid. Whether sleeping near the edge or sitting on the bed to tie their shoes, they felt that the mattress was solid and sturdy beneath them.

Much of that edge support comes from the coils, which are reinforced to be stronger around the perimeter. On the all-foam model, there was more compression around the edge of the mattress.

“This isn’t the easiest mattress to move on, but I also didn’t find it bothersome when I wanted to turn over or adjust my body’s position.” – Logan

Our testing team found that ease of movement was roughly average on the DreamCloud Premier. The contouring foams can create a small barrier to movement, but it’s not especially bothersome. If you need to roll over or switch to a different sleeping position, it’s unlikely that you’ll find it difficult.

Movement is a bit easier on the hybrid model because of the responsiveness that comes from the pocketed coils.

“The off-gassing from this mattress was about what I expected. There was a bit of a chemical scent for about a day, but it went away pretty quickly after I opened the window in my bedroom.” – Brad

The amount of off-gassing from the DreamCloud Premier is in line with most other mattresses that get shipped to your door. When you first remove the packaging, you can expect there to be a “new mattress smell,” but it’s not overpowering and goes away within a day or two.

The smell is stronger with the all-foam model but should still fade away quickly if you turn on a fan or open a window in your bedroom.
