It’s really to the point where I like the video before I even watch it. I already know the video is going to be informative and great all around quality. Thanks for the video. Great job as usual!
Ha, thanks +qteezy6501! 😊 My pleasure -- I'm very glad it was helpful, and we really appreciate your kind words and support. Liking the videos really does help other consumers find them!
@@goodbed hi. Do you suggest this mattress over the sealy hybrid plus high point firm? Looking for a mattress to accommodate back and neck pain from double scoliosis. Thanks.
@@diamondw2050 From a feel standpoint, you'll find the High Point Firm to be pretty similar to either the Adapt Medium Hybrid or the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid in terms of softness, memory feel, and bounce, but the Tempur options will tend to have a bit deeper cushioning (more of that hugged or cradled sensation).
In terms of accommodating back and neck pain related to scoliosis, each person's curvature is going to be unique. As such, choosing a mattress that works for you is going to be a very individual thing that is more about fitting you to a mattress than it is about any universal characteristics of that mattress. So I'm afraid I can't be of much help there.
I hope that's helpful.
I always learn so much from your videos
Thanks Anthony -- it's good to hear that! I appreciate you taking the time to share these kind words!
Great info! Thanks so much! Off to buy the ProAdapt.
Thank you! Very good info. We bought proadapt medium 4 weeks ago and its too firm. I will now look at the hybrid based on your video. Thank you!
Excellent review, getting the proAdapt hybrid for Christmas!!
Sounds good -- I'm very glad this video was helpful in finding the right mattress for you!
How did that mattress work out for you?
Just ordered mine. Can't wait now after seeing this great review
I hope you love it!!
Just got my pro-adapt soft today. Laying on it as we speak
@@mauricioalejandro74 how is it do you think firm is better?
@@tonitone1160 it’s been about 3 weeks and love it. It’s getting a little softer as time goes on
@@mauricioalejandro74 I'm going with firm since the soft is going to get to soft eventually
I just bought the pro adapt soft and I absolutely love it
neil farr hey! Do you sleep on your back or side? Do you feel like the mattress sinks you in too badly? Sorry, I'm in the market. Haha
It is not hot ??
Neil…The regular model or the hybrid model?
I 100% agree with your softness scale for how each mattress felt. I just recently revisited this line and couldn’t agree more with your assessment.
Hi Brianna -- thanks for the comment and glad you agree! We try very hard to make it as consistent as possible -- very difficult, but important since one company's "medium" is another brand's "firm"
Thanks again!
Great comparison! Now I know exactly which mattress to get!
Glad to hear it was helpful for you Karan -- thanks for letting us know!
@@goodbed new here if you the guy in film want to ask a 2 part question
Good reviews. Very detailed. Keep it up. Thank you.
Thanks + Arioch -- I'm very glad they've been helpful for you!
Great review and one of the first real reviews on the adapt series. Nice job. Funny I just had a pro-adapt soft delivered this morning to replace the proadapt medium hybrid. We'll see, we are both light weight and it seems very adapting so hoping it works. Edit: The pro-adapt medium hybrid was very nice however a slight bit firm for a shoulder issue and we had an issue with the coils being loud (you could hear a pop) Tempur-pedic said it was likely a defect.
Thanks +A.M B -- I'm very glad this video was helpful for you! FYI, once you've had your ProAdapt Soft for a while, it would be awesome if you could share your own personal experience with it as a review on GoodBed, where people who are shopping for a mattress and looking for unbiased information will find it most easily. As this is a new model, there are no reviews of it yet, so I'm quite sure your feedback would be useful to other mattress shoppers. If you're willing, here is a direct link to where you can post your review of this mattress:

Hi, I agree this was a good review on the new line. I have the Pro Adapt Med and I am having the same issue on my shoulders. Ive only had it for 11 nights but I can tell that I don't see it getting any better on the pressure on my shoulders. It is great on my back only if I sleep on my back all night but I sleep 75% on side and 25% on back. I weigh 155 athletic slender built and I was recommended the Pro adapt medium by the manufacturer but I feel it may be too firm for a side sleeper of my weight. Can you please let me know how the soft works out in a week or so. Thanks because after the 30 days Im switching this one out for a softer model.
Hi Isaac -- Thanks for your comment. FYI, if you're willing to share your experience with the ProAdapt Medium, that would be very helpful to other consumers as well -- you can do that here:
www.goodbed.com/review-mattress/model/tempur-pedic-medium-1/
Isaac g do you have the pro adapt medium or medium hybrid? The Medium hybrid is a little softer, as it has the ES material lower density. Medium has higher density. The soft may be too soft actually, only a few nights but so far the hybrid may have felt better.
A.M B I have the pro-adapt medium. Sleeping in side it does trigger some pressure on my shoulders, sleeping on my back it feels very supportive, I just wish my upper back could sink in just a little more but the lumbar support while sleeping on back is good.
Thanks for the excellent video. I have narrowed down my selection to two choices- Tempurpedic ProAdapt Soft or the Stearns and Foster Pollock Soft. I am an average weight side sleeper. I have Fibromyalgia and hip pain. I also have terrible insomnia. I also occasionally wake up with lower back pain from sleeping in the wrong position on a very old Serta traditional coil mattress. The S&F Pollock Plush felt great immediately as soon as I laid down. I could have probably went to sleep in the store. That is rare for me-- but that does not mean it would do my body good after 8 hours. The Tempurpedic ProAdapt soft felt odd because I am just not used to laying on a memory foam mattress. I don't feel pressure points, but it feels kind of stiff and not as comfy. I kind of felt like my legs were floating up from the firmness. These are the only two in the store I liked at all, so i would like to pick one of them. I have heard some reviews about the longevity of S&F with sagging. Its hard to find Tempurpedic reviews that are not from their site. Do you have an opinion of which one would be best for me? I love the immediate comfort of the S&F, but i am concerned about my Fibro, hip pain, and the pressure points. What do you think?
We have this mattress and would not recommend if you have hip pain.
Meant Tempur Pedic . Not aware of S&F.
Tempurpedic sucks if you have back pain
Hi - thanks again for your reviews and answering my questions. Very brief update for those who may be interested
. I bought a Medium Cocoon chill. Too firm and too bouncy for me. Maybe because I’m lightweight 102 lb, but I don’t even sink in. I’ll be looking at TempurPedic again..... ugh.....open wallet, money flying away .....
Good luck, Lauren. Your story really illustrates why a mattress that's perfect for one person might not be right for another. Those on the lighter side will definitely experience more firmness from a given mattress that someone that's 50 or 75 pounds heavier. Let us know what you end up with!
I was choosing between the Pro Adapt medium and the Sleep number bed. Due to my parents and two brothers and their wives all swearing by the Sleep number bed, I went with the Sleep Number P6 which has 11" of a top layer. However after ordering it and seeing videos of basically a air mattress and foam on top, I wish I spent a little more time thinking about the Tempur Pedic bed. However on the one bed I tried it was like laying on sand on the beach where you sink it and its a little hard to move around on. Thankfully the new beds have a layer to help with heat which should make it more comfortable. After having the air mattress for 30 days, if it does not work, I will be going for this bed.
Hi Keef. Thanks for the comment. The Tempur-pedic beds all have memory foam -- that 'sand' feeling you're talking about -- but some have less of it than others. Good luck with the Sleep Number. We haven't reviewed it, but we did just post a review of the similar Saatva Solaire: ua-cam.com/video/vou4NO-7emQ/v-deo.html
Keep in mind the regular medium and the medium hybrid feel completely different. My guy messed up and sent me the regular medium and it was definitely medium-firm to firm. The hybrid is amazing. Recommended.
Hi Tyler -- that's a great point, which we also make in the video. The difference in bounce is very stark for sure. Very glad you are happy with the hybrid! It's certainly a popular collection that a lot of people really seem to like.
@@goodbed I have found that I’m sleeping a bit hot in the hybrid. It is very comfortable so this is rather unfortunate. Not sure if this means I have to get away from memory foam? Do you have suggestions?
So helpful, thank you!!
Our pleasure! Thanks so much for letting us know this was useful for you!
I just tested out this pro adapt medium and the sleep number i8. They were both amazing (and pricey) but I’m absolutely investing in this bed. Which one do you think is better? It’s just me. @goodbed
Great review. In Canada, Costco sells flex Version. What are your thoughts please?
Nice review. Considering the more medium feel for the hybrid, would you recommend that for a normal weight combo side and back sleeper - or is the medium non-hybrid a better play? Also, is there any longer term temp difference with the hybrid given that it’s more breathable?
I would definitely recommend it for side sleepers, I'm not sure about back. And depending on your weight the hybrid will definitely be a cooler temp than the the regular.
Good afternoon. We are currently trying to decide between the "Adapt" and "Pro Adapt" series. The medium hybrid's are our favorites. Other than the extra expense, what would be the sale point between the two. We want this to be out last mattress for a very long time. I don't want to make a mistake. Thank you so much for this review BTW. You are really helping a lot of people.
Hi Davis -- Thanks for your question. Did you see the section of the video where we describe the 3 key features that are added when you step up to ProAdapt? It starts at the 5:27 mark. I hope that provides a clear answer for you.
This is great! I used to have the tempur flex elite and have been looking at the adapt medium hybrid. Would you say they have a similar feel? Thanks so much for yiur help!
Hi Anthony. We haven't covered that discontinued model in depth, so I can't say for sure. I CAN point you to our GoodBed Quiz, the best way to find a bed that will meet your needs and preferences. Then you see how your needs match up against the Adapt Medium Hybrid. Start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/quiz/
this is the best pro adapt review i have seen so far thank you :) im a side sleeper looking for the best pressure relief i can get in the hip area ... would you recommend the pro adapt soft? Im not interested in the hybrids.
Hi Coleen -- Thanks for your question (and your kind words!). Pressure relief is certainly an area where Tempur-Pedic mattresses tend to excel, and the ProAdapt Soft would be no exception to that. That said, there are other mattresses that also offer very good pressure relief, and pressure relief is just one factor (out of a dozen or more) that we consider when recommending a specific mattress to someone, so while it certainly sounds promising, I can't say for sure whether the ProAdapt Soft would be my top pick in your case.
If you haven't already done so, and want to see mattresses that best match your full set of criteria, the best starting point is to take the match quiz on our website, which you can find here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed what would your recommendations be?
@@coleenosmond3035 -- My point in recommending the quiz was that in order to make an informed recommendation that considers the various other criteria that are important for you, I first need more information about you. Getting that information quickly and easily -- and then using an intelligent matching algorithm to search across many hundreds of options to find your best matches -- is what our quiz does much better than I (or any human) can do. That said, if you want a human read on your results, feel free to come back here after taking the quiz and paste a link to your results page -- I'm happy to provide my human input.
As an aside, be aware that anyone else who positions themselves as a mattress expert and DOES give you a generic list of the "best" or "recommended" mattresses is either a) not an expert at all or b) simply a salesperson in disguise. Or both. Either way, they're a scammer, so be careful. There are literally dozens of scammer mattress review sites out there today that are full of misleading information, many of which are secretly backed by mattress companies. The two things that give most of them away are "best" lists and "overall" ratings for a given mattress. If you see an "unbiased" website that has one or both of those, run from it at top speed....
I hope that's helpful.

Great explanation!
Thank you! I really appreciate you taking a moment to let us know it was helpful for you!
I have studied lots of videos and tried various mattresses over the last two years and still struggled with pain in lower back or hips. Am 69, 5'7" and weight usually ranges between 150-155. Am fairly active. Finally I decided to splurge on the Tempurpedic Pro-Adapt Soft version, because I am a side sleeper and thought pressure relieve would be good. The first couple weeks, I thought it was great. I didn't mind the sinking in feeling, because it was just so darn comfortable. No pain on shoulders, back, or hips, and though it did sleep a bit hot, I didn't mind because it was the first mattress not needing a topper. Then, I began thinking perhaps it was a tad too soft, because I felt some discomfort in lower back that seemed alleviated if I slipped a rolled up towel under lower back. So I was conflicted about whether to exchange it, since you only get one exchange.
I decided after two months to exchange for the medium hybrid, which I got about a week ago. So far it seems pretty good, though I do notice a small amount of hip pain, though nor a game changer for overall satisfaction. I really think the soft was a little too soft for me. Is the Medium Hybrid likely to soften up any?
Hi Mary Lou. I hope you're doing well with the Medium Hybrid -- let us know.
Over time, yes -- all mattresses are going to soften to some degree. It's something that happens gradually over time, so you aren't likely to notice it overnight -- rather over months or years.
@@goodbed Thanks for response. I ended up buying the newest Tempurpedic topper, which has 3 inches of their best foam, so it seems to have helped. I might remove it and see if I can do without the topper. Maybe the mattress will soften so I don't need the topper.
Great review, really helps a lot. I am from Canada, and some store has Tempur-Pedic ProAlign and Align series, they told me it's totaly same with Adapt series, just a different name with lower price. However, I can't find a single review of the Align series, can you please explain a little bit?
Hi and thanks for the comment. We aren't up on Canadian versions -- but if the salesperson told you that the Align/ProAlign are the Canadian versions of the Adapt/ProAdapt, then what we say about those models in our video should apply. The lower price could easily be down to customs/tax differences since countries have different import/export policies for materials.
Excellent review! Would you recommend the regular Tempur-Pedic Adapt Medium to side sleepers? Thank you!
Hi there -- Thanks for your question, and your kind words. I wouldn't categorically recommend any given mattress to all side sleepers, since there are many other factors besides sleep position that greatly impact what mattress is best for someone. That said, I certainly wouldn't rule out the Adapt Medium for side sleepers, as its conforming and pressure relieving capabilities would be a good match for a solid portion of them.
To help you narrow the universe of mattress options to the ones that best meet all of your needs and preferences, I'd recommend taking our mattress matching quiz which gathers all the relevant inputs to consider and then searches across brands and stores to show you options that best match your requirements. If you haven't already taken it, you can find that quiz here:

Hi, thanks for the awesome review! My husband and I just went into the Tempurpedic store to test out mattresses and decided we like the ProAdapt line. But, we're struggling with which firmness level to get. We are replacing a first gen Tempurpedic, so we're used to sleeping on memory foam, but they've changed a lot! I am mostly a stomach/side sleeper (5' 110 lbs) and my husband is a back/side sleeper (6' 2" 195 lbs). I love the feeling of a soft mattress, but read that with mostly sleeping on my stomach firmer is better. My husband prefers a firmer feel. I'm trying to narrow it down between the ProAdapt medium and medium hybrid. My husband likes the firm feeling of the medium and I like the extra give from the hybrid. For our sleeping needs and different body sizes which mattress would you say is the best compromise? Thanks so much!
Hi Sarah. It's true that we typically recommend firmer mattresses for stomach sleepers. However, in your case, you are so light that a given mattress is going to feel firmer to you than it does to our 200-pound tester (who is about the same size as your husband).
What you are talking about here is personal preference -- from a support standpoint, it sounds like either suits both of your needs. So it comes down to hammering out who 'wins' in terms of that softness preference. You don't mention what size you need, but if you are looking for a king size, one option is to buy two twin XL mattresses and place them side by side on your frame (be sure to get mattresses of the same height).
Something else to think about -- the Hybrid version is going to be bouncier than the ProAdapt. That's something most couples have an opinion on. Some couples like a mattress with a little bounce for sex, for example. With an all-foam bed like the ProAdapt, it won't have any bounce at all. So for you two, that might be a tiebreaker.
Hope that's helpful!
What mattress did you decide on and do you like it?
Hello, I am replacing an older gen Deluxe. What would be the equivalent to today’s tempurpedic line?
Hi Mike. I love your video reviews on the Tempurpedic lines, however, I am having trouble finding a review on their line called Tempur Original 21 cm or 25 cm, which is sold in Italy. I would love it if you could do a review on how these models are or tell me of which Tempur-Pedic series they are comparable to that are sold in the U.S.A. Thank you for your wonderful, informative, and well explained product reviews!
Hi Paj. Oof -- that's a tough one. We don't have info on European versions. Tempur-pedic is known for its memory foam, so I imagine they are using some similar materials for their European mattresses. But I'm sorry -- we don't have specific comparison information for you.
Are you in Italy or the US?
Thanks for the awesome video!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the great review. I'm from Canada and I do see ProAlign instead of ProAdapt. Would you know what are the differences?
Have same question dec, 2023. Found one reddit review saying only difference is cover. Marketing thing and is only in Canadianselect stores. So for about 1k less than pro-adapt , i went with Pro-Align medium kingsize. Loved pro-adapt medium feel at sleep country canada and crossing my fingers
I’ve been referencing this video so much but I feel like I should just ask lol. My wife and I went into a mattress firm to try some beds and we both agreed that we enjoyed the adapt. I was looking to saving some money if the older products were the same and in the video, you mentioned that it is closer to the cloud supreme or cloud prima. Would you say the flex prima or tempur legacy is close to the adapt as well?
Hi Justin. Good question. The changes from collection to collection with Tempur-pedic are iterative -- that is, they tend to represent small changes in materials rather than large leaps in comfort, support, and features. So the short answer -- yes. If you see a good deal on an earlier model, that could be an option. A good guide is to compare by original price. Tempur-pedic is one of those brands that sells for the same money almost everywhere, with little discounting except for discontinued model lines.
The hybrid models in the Adapt line are closest to the discontinued Flex collection. You might want to check out our older overview video of the 2017 Tempu-pedic models, which includes the Breeze, Flex and Contour models. ua-cam.com/video/wt___cVXkzk/v-deo.html
Good luck and thanks for the question!
In depth. Thank you!

I've made the mistake of buying a $3,000 tempurpedic mattress. The first week of sleeping on the mattress i suffered from lower back pain & sciatica. My back can't take anymore pain from this temperpedic nightmare. I just ordered a beautyrest bed. I'll try to return the temperpedic. Hopefully they take it back.
Sorry to hear this, Johnny. Did you take our quiz to find out which mattresses are most likely to fit your needs? We believe it's the best way to hone in on a model that's going to support you and meet your comfort preferences. We hope the BR mattress works out better for you -- you can take our quiz and see what match score the bed you ordered gives you.

I have the pro adapt hybrid and I think maybe I should have gotten this soft because this matches feels so firm to me I sleep on my stomach and on my side so that’s why I went with a hybrid but it just feels so firm
Hi Kelly. Check with your retailer and see if you can exchange for a softer version. Many times you can, but it depends on the store. Good luck!
I’m having queen Contour Elite right now and really like it, now I want to buy the king size of that for my master bedroom. Can you saw me what’s mattress look like ?
Hi Thao. Here's a photo of that mattress:
www.goodbed.com/media/pictures/mattresses/tempur-pedic/tempur-contour-elite-picture.jpg
I left this comment in another one of your videos.
I had the Adapt Medium Hybrid and the coils made a popping noise. A month ago I got the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid and the coils have made a popping noise from day one and it’s getting worse, and it’s loud. Sometimes you can get out of bed and still hear coils popping up, delayed reaction.
I don’t know if it’s normal, but if you search individual pocketed coil noise/popping, it says the coils are failing, or the mattress is old and it’s time to buy a new mattress. My ProAdapt Medium Hybrid was made on 11/17/22 so it’s not old at all. Purchased from Tempur-Pedic and it’s been the most comfortable and best Tempur-Pedic out of the 5 different ones I’ve had in 3 years time, finally found the right mattress. I just don’t want to keep it if it’s broken, especially for the price.
Is Tempur-Pedic coil popping noise normal?
Thank you!
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. No, your mattress should not be making a loud sound when you get up. So this is definitely not normal. I'd recommend taking some video that captures this and getting this replaced. I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed Thank you very much!
It almost sounds like popcorn when you move around. I’m guessing the springs somehow are sticking and then popping up and hitting the foam.
I really appreciate it. 👍🏻👍🏻
@@akaredcrossbow My pleasure, and sorry that's the case. I hope the process for resolving it is as seamless as possible.
@@goodbed Thank you!
Hi Mike. Thanks for this review. Does the Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid retain heat?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. It's hard to answer this with certainty, especially since we have not performed an in-depth review of that model. I can say that apart from the cooling fabric in the cover, this mattress does not have specific features like the Tempur-Breeze models that are designed to prevent it from retaining heat. More generally, memory foam does have a tendency to mold to your body more closely than other foams, and when combined with deeper than average cushioning, this can mean that less of your body's surface area is exposed to the air, which can limit your body's ability to efficiently expel heat. On the other hand, by virtue of the coils it uses for support (rather than a foam core) the Hybrid model does have more airflow than other models in this product line, which should help on this front. On balance, the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid is likely to retain less heat than some other Tempur-Pedic models, but if sleeping hot is a known issue for you, there are other options that should sleep cooler, including in the Tempur-Breeze line-up.
I hope that's helpful.
Thank you!
Yes. Hot mattress. I have one.
No it’s super cool
Looking Into the pro adapt model but cant decide on the firm, medium, or medium hybrid. I'm a stomach sleeper mainly and rest my head on my arms, in my current bed I wake up with shoulder pains and arms asleep. Any guide on which feel is right for me?
Hi Trey -- Thanks for your question. In general, we don't tend to recommend a mattress with a lot of memory foam on top (such as a Tempur-Pedic) for a stomach sleeper, out of concern that your hips (which for everyone, are the heaviest part of your body) will sink too far into the mattress causing your back to over-arch. That being said, the problems you describe with shoulder pain and your arm falling asleep sound like pressure relief problems, for which memory foam is generally a very good solution. The shoulder pain also suggests that you might also be spending a fair bit of time on your side as well. On balance, I would lean toward the Firm, since that should provide good pressure relief while also minimizing the amount that your hips will sink into the mattress when on your stomach.
I hope that's helpful.
Super vidéo 👌 des matelas exceptionnels 😀
Gracias por tu mensaje! 😊
Hey! im getting ready to get a tempur pedic pro adapt what do u suggest for me I sleep on my stomach and the bed I have now (NON-TEMPUR) makes my back arc and gives me pain as I sleep and when I wake which tempur do u prefer and how soft or hard do u suggest?
Hi Aaron. Thanks for the question.
If you check out our written page on the ProAdapt, you'll see our take on each bed's firmness level -- note that what the company says is 'medium' or 'soft' doesn't always align with what we'd call soft or medium.
Without knowing any more about you other than that you are a stomach sleeper, we would typically recommend going for a firm or extra firm mattress. So in the Tempur ProAdapt line, that would be the ProAdapt Medium (which we found to be more of a firm) or the Firm (which we found to be more of an extra firm).
Here's our page on the ProAdapt, which includes that info and more: www.goodbed.com/reviews/tempur-proadapt-mattress-preview/
nice review bought proadapt soft with tempur ergo base we love it so far.. break in period was kind of firm to us but now this is perfect.. wish it wont be hot this summer
btw was wondering about mattress protector am i force to get one ?
Hi there -- No one will force you to buy a mattress protector, but we think it's a good idea. A moisture-resistant mattress protector will keep your mattress free of stains and dust. Most mattress warranties will not be honored if your mattress has stains, so a mattress protector is also protecting your ability to invoke warranty service if needed down the line.
Hope that helps!
Have you reviewed the new tempur cloud? Torn between that and the loom and leaf. 130 Sid sleeper and 170 back and side sleeper. Any help would be greatly appreciated

@@goodbed It certainly is, thank you so much! Happy New Year!!!
My pleasure @@2zwaantjes! You too!
Question. I’m paralyzed I have a hospital bed with a loud air mattress. Is there a mistress gel cooled to take the place of my hillrom beds mattress and pump? The bed frame is electric it sits up and down and goes up and down also. Will this work for me???
So it sounds like you’re looking for a mattress that keep you cool at night correct? You should look into their flagship bed that’s around $4,000 (expensive yes I know, but you spend a 1/3 of your life sleeping and getting deep sleep plays a major role in your life) most of their beds will do a great job at keeping you cool anyhow, hope you find the right bed for you man!
In some country like UK, tempur use different product name, may I ask which of the above is the closest to Original Elite 25 ?
Hi -- thanks for the question, but that's a tough one. We don't have info on European/international versions. Tempur-pedic is known for its memory foam, so I imagine they are using some similar materials for their mattresses in other countries, but we can't know for sure. So I'm sorry -- we don't have specific comparison information for you.
Hi Mike, I am torn. I mistakenly got rid of a Cloud Supreme (due to size/space issues a year ago). I've tried the Luxe-Adapt series which I believe are actually too forgiving. This review makes me truly wonder what would be in your opinion, the most similar to a Cloud Supreme (I have found the Supreme model online at a discounted price given it's phased out....but have contemplated the Pro-Adapt Medium. The ProAdapt Soft just seems too soft under my hips (I'm a side sleeper). I'm leaning to the Medium, unless, you think I'd be better off buying the Cloud Supreme at the retailer I found it at, at a lovely discounted price. Thanks so much.
Do the hybird one then
Honestly if you know that the Cloud Supreme works for you, then go for it. We've seen a lot of people getting good deals on that model now that it's been phased out.
Which is better form pressure points and lower back between the adapt hybrid, pro adapt hybrid and the pro breeze hybrid?
Thank you
Hi Marcia. Any of them can suit your needs -- and keep in mind they all come in different softness levels too. Your best bet is to go through our Quiz -- answer some questions about your body type and sleep style -- and specify Tempur-Pedic -- then we can show you how your needs line up against their models/collections. You can start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/quiz/
Hope that's helpful!!
Hi Mike, thanks to your reviews, I have narrowed my choice of mattresses down to two. The Purple 4, or the TP Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid. I am a side sleeper, which means I require pressure relief. I believe either of these mattresses will provide that. I also tend to sleep hot. From personal experience, I know the Purple provides a neutral sleep temperature, but I am concerned the TP Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid might not. If I chose the TP Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid, do you have any suggestions on creating a neutral sleep temperature?
I came VERY close to getting the purple as we had them in our local store and loved the flexible bounce. The fact that purple has a MONEY BACK guarantee makes it easy to "try out" without fear of being stuck with it. Unfortunately we went with the proadapt medium and its far to firm for us. Husband carried 50lbs of weights in his hands and jogged over the mattress trying to open up the cells but to no avail. Folks keep telling us we need to soften the bed and that we will love it after 30 days...still not feeling it (but its an excellent cardio & leg strengthening session when we jog on it. LOL) I wish we had started with purple because of their money back policy. Fortunately, after watching this great video I think the medium hybrid will do the trick as we can ONLY exchange our bed for another-no money back. Sooo, all that being said if I had it to do again I would start with purple. Its important you keep a good waterproof protector over the mattress because if you spill coffee or anything you are stuck with the bed. Good luck and it would be great to hear what you decide on and how it fits for your body :)
Which did you get ?
@@hollyojeda1308 really? I'm 260 lb and I got the pro adapt firm and not even a month later or just about a month. It's got several soft spots, maybe because I'm too heavy, but the one in the showroom didn't even have this many soft spots on it and this is only a month old. I'm definitely exchanging it
@@hollyojeda1308 You didn't even have it a month? Mine just started getting soft after 3 and 1/2 weeks
I weigh 290lbs and sleep mostly on my back or side. I did bodybuilding when I was younger and my lower back seems to suffer on soft mattresses. Would you recommend the firm or medium?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. First, it's really hard to generalize what's going to be best for lower back pain -- the only accurate generalization is that your back needs to be supported in a proper neutral position. But unfortunately, no one mattress can do this well for all people because mattress support is highly personal, meaning it's all about "fit."
That said, if softer mattresses tend to give you lower back pain, then it seems likely that your back is reacting negatively to sinking deeply into the mattress. This would mean that you'd be best off on a mattress with shallower "cushioning depth" in our parlance. Most or all of the Tempur mattresses have above average cushioning depth, and the amount of cushioning depth would be accentuated for someone that weighs 290 lbs. As such, I don't really feel confident that anything in this line is going to be the best option for you. Given your size, I'd think that your better bet would be a mattress with an extra strong coil unit that is specifically designed for heavier people. You can find a list of those here: www.goodbed.com/guides/best-mattress-heavy-people/
I hope that's helpful.
Purchased the Proadapt medium about 30 days ago. I'm still finding it quite firm even after the break in period. I am a side sleeper. I don't like the sink in feeling to much but I find this mattress quite firm. I understand it's great for my back and alignment but I'm struggling with true comfort. What would you recommend, I have 60 more days or so to exchange. The medium hybrid or the soft or something entirely different. I tried them both in store. Soft feels amazing at first but I'm worried about sinking in and not having proper alignment. I'm 6 3 210.
Loved this video and enjoyed reading all of the comments.
Hi Mike -- Thanks for your comment and kind words. I'm very glad the video was helpful for you -- just wish you'd have found it before you made your purchase! Seems like it would have saved you a lot of hassle and discomfort.
Re: other options, you mentioned "exchange," which I take it means you need to find another option at that specific store. That makes it hard for me to offer any concrete ideas other than within this same line. That said, I do think the Medium Hybrid or Soft could still be a good option for you. We classify the Medium Hybrid as a Medium and the Soft as a Medium-Soft -- at your size, I wouldn't rule out either of those from an alignment standpoint -- unless you sleep a lot on your stomach. If you're primarily a side sleeper, I think the Soft could be OK, though I do think you're going to get a fair bit of that "sinking in" feel, which you mentioned that you don't like too much. Net, the Medium Hybrid seems like it could be the best compromise between the various considerations in your case.
I hope that helps.
we went for the med hybrid will let you know how that goes. I too am I side sleeper. I would have gone with the soft hybrid but not firm enough for my hubby so we did the medium. Will let you know how the break-in period goes.
@Ryan B So far so good. for me I wouldn't go any firmer.
Temper products, since the last breeze collection, don’t really seem to have a break in period. I noticed some softening many years in but not originally. I’m hoping for the same from this line. Buy what feels good and use the 90 day trial!
Mike Delgaty what did you ended up getting? We’re in the same boat..got the ProAdapt medium but find it more firm than we would like.
I heard a reviewer say that the medium hybrid pro adapt would be like sleeping on a traditional inner spring mattress. That is not what I'm looking for ever! I have memory foam now and I'm buying a house I want a new bed for myself and to use the memory foam as a guest bed. I have serious issues with pain and nobody can tell me what to do. I took a bed quiz at another place and it came up with the big fig whatever the hell that is!
We have an Adapt medium now. We are sleeping hot. We are debating about upgrading to a ProAdapt Hybrid Medium or a Breeze Hybrid Medium (this would be floor model- we are being told the exterior "phase change cooling" would be compromised due to dirt). Breeze still feels cooler that ProAdapt. Any thoughts?
Hi Carrie. The direct effect of today's phase-change materials and coatings is difficult to assess scientifically, and keep in mind that you're putting a mattress protector and sheets on top of it, most likely negating at least some effect of those cooling features. In our view, choosing a mattress with better airflow will have a larger impact for those that sleep hot. So going with innerspring or a hybrid with pocketed coils will most likely allow for more exchange of warm air for cooler air. So between those three, either the Breeze Hybrid Medium or the ProAdapt Hybrid have the most potential for air flow. As you likely noted in the video, we did think that the high-density fibers in the cover of these Tempur models felt notably cool -- at least some portion of that cooling feeling should still be felt through your sheets and a mattress protector, but it's hard to project how noticeable that will be for you. I hope that's helpful.
Hi Carrie -- Thanks again for your question about this. In case you're still mulling over this decision, I wanted to let you know that we've just released our overview of the new Tempur-Breeze line-up for 2019. You can check it out here:
ua-cam.com/video/w8khinNUCdE/v-deo.html
If you find it helpful, please give it a thumbs-up!
So do you think the medium proadapt is replacing the rhapsody luxe, which was their medium firm? Is it comparable to that?
Where can I get a mattress from Tempurpedic for the prices your mentioning? All I see I line is $4-5,000
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. The prices we quoted in the video are / were the MAP prices (basically, the minimum prices allowed by Tempur-Pedic) at the time of the video. Tempur-Pedic does have the tendency to raise these from time to time, so the best place to see the current MAP prices is on their site here:

Quick question, we had an original tempur mattress that was great in the beginning but got so soft over the course of the first year that it started causing us intense pain and sublaxations. Which of the tempur mattresses do you think would be best since we live in the tropics and don't want to have the same issue again?
Hi Anaala -- Thanks for your question. I'm afraid this isn't an easy one to answer though.
For one thing, in order to recommend a mattress that would be a good match for you, I'd need to know more about you than simply where you live (side plug for the quiz on our website, which is by far the most in-depth of its kind -- it will ask you all the pertinent questions and show you options that match your needs and preferences, all in the span of about 3 minutes).
But for another thing, it's not immediately obvious to me that another Tempur-Pedic is the right answer for you in the first place. For example, if you experienced intense pain on the previous one, there's a chance that you were not getting proper spinal alignment from it, and this may reflect a fundamental mismatch between your needs and the construction characteristics of a Tempur mattress. To illustrate this, we rarely recommend mattresses with a lot of slow-melting memory foam on top for stomach sleepers, especially heavier stomach sleepers. This would be particularly true for people in warmer climates where the memory foam may have a tendency to conform more to your body.
Net, I'm sorry I don't have a great answer, but I would recommend starting with our quiz, as I think it will help get you pointed in the right general direction in terms of what you should be thinking about and looking for, and can even highlight some specific products that could be a good starting point. From there, you can watch the videos and other review information we provide about those products to make a more confident determination as to whether they are a good match for your needs.
I'm sorry I can't provide a more direct answer on this one, but I hope this guidance is helpful nonetheless. FYI, here is a direct link to our quiz: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/
@@goodbed thank you very much for replying, I shall give the quiz a try 😊
My pleasure Anaala! Sounds good.
i have a cloud lux and it is great so soft no hard anywhere
Awesome. Glad you are enjoying it and thanks for commenting!
Are there any other mattresses you would compare the Pro Adapt soft to? My husband and I tried it in store and liked it, but it's a little more expensive than we'd like. Thanks!
Hi Amy -- There are no perfect comparisons, but in terms of the many mattresses we've reviewed, the one that I think compares most closely to the ProAdapt Soft, both in terms of feel and materials, would be the Novosbed Medium. You can watch our in-depth review of this model here:

60 month 0% financing is a great tool. $62/m for King mattress at $3699. Same as cash through Wells Fargo.
My question is SUPER late but I’m hoping you can still answer it. I’ve been in mattress Hades! I started with a Tempurpedic LuxeAdapt Soft, and it was terrible on my lower back. Exchanged for an Icomfort Soft, still horrible, now I have a SF Hurston Firm, no lower back pain, but now upper back pain. I’m a combination side/stomach sleeper. A relative of mine has a Sealy Extra Firm Memory Foam, and I get the BEST sleep when visiting, but they don’t make that mattress anymore. I’m now considering another Tempurpedic but either the Medium Pro Adapt or Firm Luxe Adapt. Any suggestions? I just want to get a good nights rest. Also for reference I’m 5’9 and 137 lbs.
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. Yes, the side / stomach combination is one of the hardest to balance because your needs in these two sleep positions are directly at odds with one another. On the LuxeAdapt Soft and iComfort Soft, you were getting good spinal alignment on your side but too much sinkage in your midsection when on your stomach -- this causes your back to overarch, leading to lower back pain. On the Hurston Firm, you were getting good support on your stomach but not enough conformance on your side to allow your shoulders to sink into the mattress -- this can cause upper back pain due to the curvature in your upper spine.
What you need is a mattress that offers more conformance than it does sinkage. This can be hard to find since the way most mattresses are designed, these two characteristics go hand in hand -- meaning, as you get more conformance, you also get more sinkage, and vice versa. This is the case with both the LuxeAdapt Firm and the ProAdapt Medium.
That said, there are some mattresses that are better at offering more of one of these than the other. Here are some examples that I'd recommend you look at, along with links to our in-depth reviews of these mattresses:
* Purple Original: www.goodbed.com/reviews/purple-mattress-review/ (note: if you have a partner who weighs 200 lbs or more, know that this one will not be as good for stomach sleeping as the Purple Hybrid below)
* Purple Hybrid (2"): www.goodbed.com/reviews/purple-4-mattress-review/

I have scoliosis and my back pain has significantly increased since the pandemic started and the gyms closed. I've slept on a soft Tempurpedic cloud for almost ten years and I absolutely love it, however, I recently moved and am on the market for a new, firmer mattress to help with my back. I'm a hot sleeper as well.
I only weight 150 pounds, but I'd like something firmer for my back. Would you recommend going with a firm or medium Tempurpedic mattress?
Hi Rich. Sorry to hear the back pain is flaring up -- it's so tough on everyone without our PT and normal exercise routines. As far as choosing a mattress specifically to alleviate your back pain, we believe it's a myth that a firm mattress is always better -- rather, it's about finding a bed that properly supports your back and lumbar area.
A couple of thoughts -- have you thought about an adjustable base? These are more and more common, and can allow you adjust your position to alleviate pressure. We have a bunch of videos on various models so you can see them in action:
ua-cam.com/video/eIM6eyPFgB0/v-deo.html
The majority of mainstream mattresses, including Tempur-Pedic mattresses, are compatible with adjustable bases.
I'm also a little surprised, as a hot sleeper, that you have been doing well on a Tempur-Pedic, since there is so much memory foam and cushioning depth. For hot sleepers, we typically recommend a hybrid bed (with a pocketed spring support unit). Latex may also be something to consider for you -- latex offers superior pressure relief, yet you don't sink in as much as you do with memory foam.
In any case, we'd recommend starting with our GoodBed Quiz. By answering some questions about your preferred sleep positions and health needs, we can match your requirements against our mattress database and give you a shortlist of beds that should come closest to meeting all your needs. You can find the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/
I know this is more than you asked! If you are set on sticking with Tempur-Pedic, then you likely will want to look at something like the LuxeAdapt Firm. While certainly a firmer bed overall, we did find that conformance -- how closely the mattress conforms to your curves -- is very good. So that mattress might give you the firmer support you want while still reaching up into your lumbar and neck/shoulder areas while also providing the pressure relief of memory foam.
Hope that helps!!
@@goodbed Wow that was such a thorough response. I really appreciate your time and consideration. You (guys) are great. I'm going in person this week to try out some mattresses because they're actually open! I really appreciate your time, information, and diligence. Thank you for your support! This was really helpful!
@@richrise6851 What mattress did you end up with? My girlfriend has scoliosis and we're trying to find that perfect mix between comfort and support to help her with pain relief.
Well I went and tried this bed and I really like it. (Pro adapt hybrid medium) I'm trying to save a bit of money and find an alterative. I was leaning heavily towards the saavta but worry the luxury firm may be a bit more firm then this mattress..(based on reading reviews ) ..any thoughts ?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. I assume you're talking abut the Loom & Leaf (made by Saatva) rather than the Saatva itself. The flagship Saatva mattress feels nothing like any Tempur-Pedic mattress so it definitely won't be a good substitute.
The Loom & Leaf is a similarly constructed mattress to a Tempur-Pedic overall in that it has a substantial amount of that slow-melting memory feel. But unlike the Hybrid model you tried, it won't have any bounce (it has no springs). It also differs in that it has about 1.5" of quilting foam on top that is not memory foam, which makes the memory feel a little less pronounced and the contouring a little less closely hugging than with a Tempur-Pedic. All of these differences are what we call "preference-based" characteristics, so there is no better or worse -- just a matter of determining which is a better match for your personal preferences.
I hope that's helpful.
how does hybrid medium compare and differ from medium?
Just ordered one (proAdapt medium hybrid) based on this video.
Hope you love it!
GoodBed it got delivered 30 min ago and my first thought was that it was too firm. Then it started to envelop me. As everyone has said, it will soften in the first 30 days or so and I’m thinking that then it will be perfect. Will report back in a month. Thanks again for this video.
First night of sleep on the mattress and HOLY COW!!! Didn’t move all night. No stiffness. No arm falling asleep! Wow.
Loving the mattress. 30 days or so with it now and I’m super happy with it.
Thomas D'Acquisto what was the price of the mattress? From where you brought ?
Have you guys tried the Tempur Pedic essential soft mattress? They are sold with Cosco. Which other tempur pedic bed is it most like? Still get the forming characteristics? Still have premium foams? What is the difference between the essential mattress and the others? Thank you.
I think the "Essential" is the same as the "Loft" in that Costco sells the "Essential" and QVC sells the "Loft" and changed the name since they both claim that the mattress sold exclusive through them. Same mattress but different name for each place to sell.. if not they seem really close. So how is either one of these if you tried them? Still same questions from above. Thanks for your help.
Hi, and thanks for the question. The Loft is using the same Tempur-ES memory foam that's used in the Adapt and ProAdapt. However, we don't know how MUCH of it the bed uses because Tempur-pedic doesn't say, but given the price, it could be as little as an inch or 1.5 inches. Beyond that, it appears to be mainly poly foam. We have not tested that mattress, so I can't tell you how it compares to the much more expensive Adapt/ProAdapt. Our hunch is that for people on the heavier side, there may not be enough of the memory foam to get the same conforming feel and pressure relief. It's possible that very light people might be okay. But again, without knowing how much of the ES memory foam is there, it's hard to say. There are some reviews on Amazon: amzn.to/2HMPZEK
I hope that's helpful.
did you find that although the proadapt medium was firmer than the adapt medium, that you still sank further into it? possibly due to it having more layers...that was my issue with the proadapt medium
Hi Alex -- Thanks for your question. Yeah, that might be the case. This could be a god illustration of why we consider cushioning depth and softness to be two separate characteristics.
I bought the Firm model and it’s like sleeping on the floor... I don’t know if it’s because it’s brand new or the temp in my room but I wake up with a a sore lower back.
Georgie Give it about a month for the mattress to adjust. At first your mattress will be much more firm then it was when you first laid on a floor model.
On 10-21-23 Tempur recommended the ProBreeze Hybrid and now that we have the matress it is not close to being a match for our existing Tempur-Flex Hybrid Elite. On 1-4-24 Tempur now is saying the ProAdapt Med Hybrid is the direct replacement for the Tempur-Flex Hybrid Elite model. We are seeking to get a King Tempur-Pedic that matches our existing Tempur-Flex Hybrid Elite and wondering if anyone has done the same and their experiences. Thanks for the overview.
Good questions. So we'd generally agree with Tempur's second response on 1/4/24. Relative to the Flex Hybrid Elite, the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid probably is the closest match. However, it is still likely to feel pretty different (and probably slightly firmer than the Flex Hybrid) due to changes that Tempur has made to its hybrids made during that period, and differences in the foam that was used in the Flex models (some of which was faster-responding and is no longer used anywhere in the Tempur line-up).
Both the Adapt and ProAdapt should be softer than the ProBreeze though, which we think tends to feel a bit firm. You might also try the Adapt Hybrid as well.
I hope that's helpful.
Hi! are you supposed to use a mattress protector with this bed since it has the cover?
Hi -- Yes, we would always recommend a mattress protector to protect against permanent stains. Even though some of the ProAdapt models have a zip-off cover, it's not water resistant.
GoodBed thanks, just got my tempurpedic pro adapt soft in today!
Not sure anyone is still following this thread, but I'm trying to choose between the Cloud Supreme, a discontinued model that is available at Costco ($1749 for queen), versus the Pro Adapt (probably medium -- which is around $3200 for queen after discounts). Is the Pro Adapt worth the extra money in your view or are they pretty comparable?
Yes. And described you get layer of the APR in the pro adapt. You’re going to get a much better tempur experience
I got pro adapt medium hybrid and I find it firm for me and I toss and turn a lot ;/ I’m 5”3 135 lbs and low back issues but very athletic. Idk what to do? Try a softer one. ? Or do purple ? I like the tempur I have has coils but it’s not soft
Hi Holly. Thanks for the question. I'd really recommend you take a step back and take our GoodBed Quiz. We'll ask you some questions about your body type, sleep positions, and preferences -- then we can give you a short list of models that are more likely to suit all of your needs -- which based on what you've said lean heavily towards good pressure relief. Especially for athletes, pressure relief also becomes more important as you age -- just something to keep in mind as well.

Celliant cover and weighted blanket stopped my tossing and turning. Always woke up in a different position, no I’m practically always the same way I originally fell asleep. Only one time for the pass couple months.
I'm a smaller person (female, 5', 110lbs). Would the medium be too firm for me? I'm debating between the soft and the medium pro adapt.
Hi Rachel. Thanks for the question. Since mattress feel is subjective, we couldn't say whether it would feel "too firm" for you personally. However, generally speaking, what feels "firm" to a 200-pound person will feel even more firm to a 110-lb person simply because the lighter person won't be heavy enough to compress the comfort materials as much as a heavier person.
Your best bet is probably to try one in a store, but we would guess that you might like the soft better than the medium. But again, it's very subjective since it's based on your personal perception of what "firm" feels like.
@@goodbed thanks for the reply! I appreciate the feedback :)
What’s best for stomach sleepers? The proadapt firm? Or medium?
Hi there -- In general, we don't recommend mattresses with a lot of memory foam for a stomach sleeper unless you've had a memory foam mattress before and not had any back pain issues with it. With that said, for a stomach sleeper, we would generally recommend the firmer of any two options, though in this case both of these two options are pretty firm so unless you are more than 175-200 pounds you could probably go with either one. I hope that's helpful.
GoodBed what would you recommend to someone around 220-240 pounds and is a stomach sleeper?
How often does tempurpedic release new beds? Every 4 or 5 years?
Hi David -- Thanks for your question. Tempur-Pedic releases new beds most years, but doesn't revamp their entire line-up all at the same time. Rather, they will replace certain models (generally the older ones), and then the following year will update other models, etc. Each model they release tends to remain an active part of their line-up for 3-5 years. This is a bit longer than most traditional mattress brands, who tend to replace their mattresses on 2-3 year cycles. That said, it's also worth noting that the pandemic did interrupt the product introduction cycle for most mattress brands. I hope that's helpful.
Is it normal to hear crunching with the coils? My bed is 3 weeks old and I only weigh 125 lbs. I have a med hybrid full size
Hi. That's pretty unusual. We didn't notice any odd noises when we tried the bed. It could be the fabric used for the pocketed coils -- which like all fabric, ought to soften up over time. But that's a complaint about this mattress we haven't yet heard. Have you contacted the company?
Here is the contact page with email and phone numbers: www.tempurpedic.com/customer-service/contact-us/
My king adapt medium hybrid was doing the same thing. We took the main cover off and found the top layer of foam had an 8” rip in it. The rip was going from head to foot right where the coils would stop and transition to side foam near the edge. About 6 months of ownership we started to notice the coils making noise, almost like a heavy plastic bag noise. We contacted TempurPedic and in about 4 weeks we had a new bed, but we upgraded to the LuxeAdapt soft. I don’t know if they would’ve approved the warranty claim without the rip in the foam and just the noise.
will you recommend this for people who have back pains?
Hello. Mattress selection is too personal for us to make any kind of across-the-board recommendation about a brand or mattress line (and in fact, ANY website that is telling you that such-and-such mattress is universally good for back pain is a FRAUD and just trying to sell you a mattress). Have you taken our Mattress Match quiz yet? We designed it for exactly this situation. Once you answer a few questions about your body type, sleeping style, and preferences, we can match up your needs against thousands of mattresses from both online and store brands. You'll get a "match score" for each mattress and specific notes about how a given mattress is likely to meet your needs, and it might turn up some models you haven't yet considered.

Omg he’s actually sitting on the bed & feeling it 😵
Excellent and very detailed review. I’m planning on buying a ProAdapt soon. However I can’t seem to decide on the firmness level. I’ve a bad back ever since I was born and the back pain is pretty constant for me. I weigh about 230 pounds. I always tend to sleep on my back most of the time. Sometimes on my stomach. My salesman recommended to get the firm for my back pain. However I fear the firm might be a little bit too firm. He suggested that I can always add a mattress topper on top of it if I want it softer. Do you recommend me to get the firm, medium, or medium hybrid? And why do you suggest that? Thanks for your time and help.
I was thinking of doing this! The salesperson I talked to said that he's never heard of that and for this mattress you should love it when you buy it. Now I too am conflicted on what I want! I'm not sure who is right either!
Hi Vince. Unfortunately, there is no universal best mattress for "back pain" but finding a mattress that offers you the correct support and neutral spinal alignment is key. And the myth that a firm mattress is always better for back pain is just that -- a myth. What back sleepers need is a mattress that allows their hips to sink in just enough, and for the mattress to reach back up into that lumbar area to support the lower back.

Hi Dolly. There are a dozen mattresses in the Adapt and ProAdapt lines, so unsure which one you are looking at. And the Serta iComfort 4000 comes in two versions as well.
Have you taken our quiz? That's really the best way for us to recommend a mattress to you -- answer some questions about your personal needs and preferences -- and you can also indicate price range -- and we can give you a list of mattresses most likely to fit your needs.

Just what I've been waiting for. Excellent review. I am still waiting for my Adapt medium hybrid to be delivered. They bumped it up to next Friday now. UUGGGHH!!!. After your review, I think I made the right choice. I needed a little softer feel since I am a side sleeper and the adapt medium all foam just felt a bit to firm. My back was hurting when I went to try one out and when I laid on the hybrid I just felt this instant relief and comfort. I'm done with all full spring mattresses and looking forward to less movement when I dogs jump on and off the bed. Also, I didn't know the cover was removable, they never mentioned that in the store either. Thx for the info. Do you think a separate mattress pad will take away from the coolness of the mattress cover?
Hi Jen -- Thanks for your question, and kind words -- I'm very glad this review was helpful for you! RE: the cover, it is actually only removable on the ProAdapt, not the Adapt, so that could be why it wasn't mentioned to you in the store. RE: a mattress pad, yes that will take away from the coolness of the cover -- the coolness in this case is a coolness "to the touch," so you won't feel that through a piece of foam. I feel pretty confident that you'd still feel it through a sheet but TBH I don't know to what degree you'll feel it through a sheet and mattress protector. Will be curious to hear your experience on this once you get it!
Ok, didn't catch it was only available on the pro series, no problem. I'll let you know how it works with a mattress pad. I got the purple mattress pad that is thinner and supposed to keep your mattress cool along with their sheets. Seemed to have gotten rave reviews, but we shall see. Thx again, :-)
Thanks Jen -- sounds good!
@Ryan B Personally, i didn't care for it. The first few weeks were great, then after 2 months i started waking up to back aches. It also bothered me every time i first sat on the bed, or turn abruptly I could feel the coils underneath. Just seemed like the mattress itself was too thin. I got rid of it and now i'm waiting on my purple 4 to be delivered. I think it might be a better fit for me.
Jen Marie
Oh my God please let me know because I have the medium hybrid and I find it too firm, and I wake up super sore. I’m considering purple 4. Let me know what you think!!!
We bought the Pro Adapt medium, King. We've had it 4 months. I'm 6'2", 205 lbs. and a side sleeper. The bed feels great when I first get in but after a couple hours my lower back on the mattress side begins to ache. I switch to my other side and the same occurs. I roll on to my back and begin to ache in the lower middle. We have a year to make a one time exchange. My wife thinks we could add a 2" or 3" gel or memory foam topper to fix the problem. I think a $3,000 bed should be comfortable as is. What would you suggest? Thank you for an excellent video and your opinion will be much appreciated.
Absolutely, maybe you could try the firm???
Sam Smith , thank you for your reply. The salesman told us the firm would not be good for side sleeping.
Hey, was wondering what, if anything, ended up helping?? We bought the Medium a month ago and I'm experiencing exactly the same thing with my sides aching and then mid-back aching when I'm on my back. I want so badly to love it because it feels so comfortable when I get in and because my husband absolutely loves it and now has zero back pain.
I am considering the Pro Adapt Firm. I weigh 270 and I'm a side and back sleeper. Do you think that's a good model to consider? Is TP worth the insane amount of money that they ask for their beds? Please help, subbed.
I weigh the same and also considering the Pro Adapt Firm. Just can't decide.
@@lisagarnier8059 I went with the Big Fig instead.
Yes Temper is worth it if you find the mattress that is right for you. Customer service is superior!
@@TurboChards I disagree. Their customer service is atrocious. When you have an issue with the mattress, you will discover exactly what I mean
Got an adapt medium hybrid and on the trial phase (less than 30 days) I'm finding it too soft. I'm sinking a bit, especially the hips area. Should I go with an adapt medium (non hybrid) or a firm? As a side sleeper I'm a tad scared to go straight to a firm, but do think it maybe what Im looking for.
Hi there -- If the Adapt Medium Hybrid is noticeably too soft for you, I don't think you'd find significant enough difference in the Adapt Medium (non-hybrid) to justify the change. And AFAIK there is no Firm in the Adapt line-up. So assuming you like the rest of what the Tempur product line has to offer, you may want to consider the ProAdapt Firm.
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed Thanks, It was helpful. Ill either have to fork $900+ to go pro adapt firm or switch brands. I like the tempur feel, Ive used the same tempur pillow for over 2 decades! It's just that my lower back is sinking around 3" lower than my torso, and it doesn't like it as I wake up stiff with some discomfort (wouldn't call it pain on most days).
@@Shadow__133 what did you end up doing?
Did you go with the Pro Adapt firm?
@@akaredcrossbow I did. Much better with the pro adapt firm after I added a thin (2") soft "gel" mattress pad to the top.
No back aches, it's firm and the pad adds a little comfort.
One problem I'm having now, because it is firmer, my shoulders won't "sink" in to the matters as much and my 15-20 yr old pillow feels now a bit too low. I tried 8 different pillows, including a cube aberration and none come close to the original Tempur memory foam pillow I have. You'd imagine tech would improve over the years, but it's clearly not the case.
One problem someone may have with this combo (mattress + topper/pad) is it will be very thick. My linen stretches quite a bit, so I had no issues, but the bedjet air heater (for instance) won't even reach the too of the mattress (so it's useless).
@@Shadow__133 Thank you for the reply. I’ve been suffering with the Luxeadapt soft. Hips, shoulders and sciatic issues. I moved to the much firmer couch for a much better night sleep, but the couch is starting to sag in the middle. I just tried out the the Proadapt firm and the Proadapt medium at a mattress firm. The medium was too soft and the firm felt just right. The bed store has hundreds of people laying down on these beds so they become softer, broken in. So I feel that the firm will be the perfect bed for me over time. Unfortunately 100-120 nights is not enough to test a bed. My Luxeadapt started hurting me just a little over 4 months (120 nights plus) so I couldn’t return it. I’m willing to bet most people that buy a new bed love it until 5 months later and have to deal with it.
Damn wish I watched this first the guy on the Tempur-Pedic hotline did not explain the beds like this.
Thanks Rachel. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get such a good explanation from Tempur. In their defense, I don't think any company can explain their products as clearly as we can -- it's simply too easy for a manufacturer to get tied up in their own marketing lingo and sales message, whereas we cut all that out and explain things in plain English for our readers. Likewise, no manufacturer would ever want to say anything about their products that might dissuade even a single customer from buying that product. By contrast, we are able to highlight the distinct characteristics of any given product in an objective manner that clearly illustrates how it could be a great match for one person but less of a match for another, based on an evaluation framework that we can apply consistently across all different brands.
Although it seems that every website has an opinion about mattresses these days, GoodBed is the only objective source of mattress information that is based on this caliber of depth and expertise. So as a result, we would certainly recommend against buying any mattress without first reading our take on it to know what you're really getting.
I hope that's helpful.
In terms of comfort, How does the medium adapt hybrid model compare to an icomfort blue 100 gentle firm?
Hi. In our evaluation, the Serta iComfort Blue 100 Gentle Firm is a bit softer than the Tempur-Adapt Medium. We judged the Serta a "Medium" and found the Adapt Medium to be more of a "Medium Firm."
Hope that helps!
@@goodbed Is the Icomfort 100 as soft as the proadapt soft?
@@mikeh7220 No, as explained in the video starting around 9:57, the ProAdapt Soft is a "Medium-Soft", which is softer than a "Medium."
@@goodbed Oh ok. I sampled the proadapt soft earlier today and it seems firm
Is the cover meant to be slept on without a mattress cover sheet? This may sound like an obvious question but not clear anywhere I have read.
You could do this, but we wouldn't say that the mattresses are "meant" to be slept on this way, no. We'd recommend sheets in all cases.
I sleep on my belly. What would be best for me? Need advise
Hi Adriana. Thanks for your question. We actually developed a proprietary mattress matching quiz to answer this type of question more exactly than we can here because it uses a more complete set of information about your requirements, and then filters through thousands of mattresses to highlight the ones that are most likely to match your needs. As it seems you may already know, mattresses are very personal -- and everyone has very specific needs, preferences, and priorities.
Very generally, stomach sleepers need firmer support and less cushioning depth in the hip area to prevent the back from over-arching, but to what degree will depends on your size, weight, and other factors that the quiz takes into account.
You can find the GoodBed Quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/
I hope you find it helpful in your search.
I am so torn between the Adapt Medium and ProAdapt Medium. I know the ProAdapt has the APR which is supposed to allow more pressure relief. I suffer with Fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition, and find the Adapt Medium to be most comfortable. Yet I know that the APR may be better for my trigger and tender points. Shall I go with the mattress that is most comfortable or the one that sounds to be based on the materials?
I'm not the guy but pretty sure you should buy the one you find most comfortable!
Hi Andrea -- I'm so sorry we missed this question previously. In case it's still relevant for you, my input would be the following:
1) In terms of your "comfort" preference, the key difference in the feel of these two mattresses is that the ProAdapt has significantly more surface firmness to it. This type of firmness softens up as your body warms the mattress, and will also be less noticeable when the room temperature is warmer.
2) In terms of pressure relief, the ProAdapt is marginally better in this department, which is not a critical advantage for everyone, but could be a meaningful consideration for someone with fibromyalgia, especially if you sleep on your side much of the time.
Net, if you prefer the softer feel of the Adapt Medium but want the pressure relieving benefit of the ProAdapt line, I might suggest looking at the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid. We found this one to have better pressure relief than the ProAdapt Medium (as well as the Adapt Medium), however its softer feel is more similar to the Adapt Medium (with the exception of it having a little bit of bounce, which you won't find on the Adapt Medium).
I hope that's helpful.
Hi. Do u know how the Tempur flex supreme compares to the proadapt series in terms of softness and cooling? I'm referring to the non breeze version. Thanks!
I'm deciding between the proadapt medium hybrid and the Tempur flex supreme. In the store the proadapt medium hybrid felt a hair softer than the Tempur flex supreme... But I wasn't positive
Hi there Khurram -- Thanks for your question. Softness can sometimes be a bit subjective, but in our estimation the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid has a bit less softness than the Tempur-Flex Supreme. In terms of cooling, the ProAdapt line has the cooling cover that is described in this video, which is not something you'll find on the Tempur-Flex Supreme, so I'd feel comfortable giving the nod to the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid on that front.
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed hi thanks for the info. I was also considering Tempur flex prima. I've always slept on a firm innerspring mattress and have liked it. Do u think the flex prima will be a good choice?
Hi Khurram -- The Tempur-Flex line tends to run pretty soft so even though the Prima is the least soft of the 3, we still classify it as a Medium-Soft. So overall I would consider the feel of it to be similar to the ProAdapt Hybrid, or perhaps even slightly softer.

I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed ok on the tempurpedic sight it's listed as a firm mattress. So kinda confusing.
How do u know the old model from the new in stores ,so u know ur not buying old stock
Hmmm. If the mattress is on site, then you can always check the date of manufacture on the by-law tag at the head of the bed. If not, then you can check the manufacturer's website to see if the model you're interested align with the current models.
And generally mattresses shouldn't "go bad" unless they're stored improperly, so old stock shouldn't be too much of an issue unless it's a used model.
I may to bite the expensive bullet and get the ProAdapt medium/firm. On a scale from 1-10 with 10 being firmest, how would you classify the two? How does the cooling for the ProAdapt compare with the Breezeline? How do you think the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora compares to it?
Hi Karayah -- We use a slightly different softness scale wherein we classify things amongst Very Soft, Soft, Medium-Soft, Medium, Medium-Firm, Firm, and Very Firm. Here's how we classify some of the ones you asked about:
* ProAdapt Firm: Very Firm
* ProAdapt Medium: Firm
* ProAdapt Medium Hybrid: Medium
* ProAdapt Soft: Medium-Soft
* Brooklyn Aurora Firm: Medium-Firm
* Brooklyn Aurora Medium: Medium-Soft
In terms of cooling, I would say you will get a bit more of that palpable coolness to the touch from the Aurora than from the ProAdapt models, but as we explained in the beginning of this video, the ProAdapt coolness is achieved in a different way.
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed How does the ProAdapt cooling compare with Tempurpedic's Breezeline? How does the Breezeline compare with the Aurora's cooling? I know Brooklyn Bedding's Titanflex foam behaves more like latex and the Aurora is a hybrid so the feels are very different. I'm currently trying the Tomorrow Sleep medium-firm hybrid, and it's too soft. It's not designed to support someone with my weight. Before I take the expensive Tempur-pedic plunge, I thought about trying Novosbed, but I really don't like their new warranty policy and I'm worried about sleeping hot.
Hi Karayah -- IMHO the Breeze line has more robust cooling features than the ProAdapt but probably quite not as palpable as the Aurora. Since you have tried the Tomorrow Sleep Medium-Firm, I would mention for comparison sake that we classify that one as a Medium on our spectrum. So knowing that you found that one too soft, I think that might rule out the ProAdapt Soft and the Medium Hybrid, as well as the Brooklyn Aurora Medium and the Novosbed Medium. In the case of these 3 brands, it sounds like you'd want to be looking at one of their firmer options such as the ProAdapt Medium or Firm, the Aurora Firm, or the Novosbed Firm.
I hope that's helpful.

I know I want to Tempur-Pedic and I know I want their foundation that lifts up and down has massage and an under bed light.
Wait I bought an Adapt Medium Hybrid Cal King just a week ago for $2800. Did I get ripped off??
Hi John. We do think you pay a premium for Tempur-Pedic -- however, that's not without reason. Their materials are of exceptionally high quality in our opinion. We hope it's the right mattress for you -- sleep well!
where is the best place to buy a tempur-pedic?
Hi Marc -- Thanks for your question. Tempur-Pedic regulates the prices at which their dealers can sell their products, so in most stores the prices will be the same. That said, they only regulate the *minimum* price so some stores definitely set their prices above that level. Tempur-Pedic's website will generally show the lowest-allowable price at any given time, so it's best to check there before buying anywhere else. GoodBed also will show that price on our site:
www.goodbed.com/mattresses/tempur-pedic/
In terms of price, the one other thing you can do is if GoodBed has a trusted partner store in your area, you can save an additional $50 by getting a cash back code from GoodBed.com before you buy. This comes from GoodBed so is on top of whatever discounts you get from the store. To redeem the offer, all you have to do is come back to GoodBed after making your purchase and enter the code you got before your purchase.
Beyond those factors, the key thing that will differentiate Tempur-Pedic retailers is their customer service and their store policies. These considerations will be reflected in store reviews, return policy, delivery policy, financing options, etc. We look at these factors closely In choosing our trusted partner stores, so if we have one or more partners in your area that carry Tempur-Pedic, those would be good bets on this front as well.
To check whether we have selected a trusted partner in your area that carries Tempur-Pedic, just open the link that I pasted above (www.goodbed.com/mattresses/tempur-pedic/) -- if we do, there will be a banner on this page that shows it. To make sure we have estimated your location correctly, you can also try using the search box at the top of the page to search for your zip code and see if any trusted partners appear on the store locator results page.
I hope that's helpful.
Once upon a time ago it use to be Sleepy’s now I just go straight to Temper-Pedics website!
How does "cool to the touch" matter if everyone is gonna put sheets on them?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. We get this one a lot, and in fact there may even be other comments on this very video that ask about this. The short answer is that sheets certainly do mitigate the "coolness to the touch" experience. However they don't remove the cooling benefit. The cooling effect is created by the fact that the cooling features are able to absorb heat from your body, and as this heat is being pulled from your body it creates a sensation of coolness. When you place materials between you and the cooling feature, it simply takes the heat a little longer to reach the cooling feature. But it still does reach, and as/when it does, you still benefit from it. However it is not as palpable as when you are touching that cooling feature directly.
I hopet that's helpful.
I have the firm. Firmer is better for me even though I sleep on my side. It takes a while, but you do sink in some after you lay on it for a while. 6'1 150 lbs
Hi Jesse -- Thanks so much for sharing your experience here. FYI, your feedback would be even more helpful as a review on GoodBed, where people who are shopping for a mattress and looking for unbiased information will find it more easily. If you're willing, here is a direct link to where you can post your review of this mattress:

Feel like Temperpedic is only good if u aren’t a combo sleeper or are underweight. A have 5lb density memory foam and I’m happy with it.
Are the adapt medium and pro adapt medium the same firmness level?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. We found the Tempur Adapt Medium to have a little more softness than the ProAdapt Medium. On our softness scale, we classify the ProAdapt Medium as a Firm and the Tempur Adapt Medium as a Medium-Firm (one notch softer than Firm). I hope that's helpful.
