NECTAR LUXE MATTRESS REVIEW
The Nectar Luxe mattress is Nectar’s premium mattress, designed to elevate sleep comfort, support, and durability. Known for its luxurious materials, cooling features, and balanced firmness, the Nectar Luxe Memory Foam mattress caters to a wide range of sleepers.
While this review is for the memory foam version of the Nectar Luxe, note that you can also order it as a hybrid mattress (combination of foams + coils) if you prefer the feel of a hybrid.
Let’s take a deeper look at the Nectar Luxe’s composition, firmness, temperature regulation, motion isolation, and more, so you can decide whether this is the right mattress for you.
Company Policies & Recommendations
Nectar Luxe Mattress - Composition
The Nectar Luxe mattress is an all-foam 14-inch thick mattress, designed to provide the ideal combination of comfort, support, and cooling. At 14 inches thick, it is a bit taller than typical memory foam beds. Let’s look at each layer independently:
Anti-Microbial Mattress Cover
The mattress cover is made from a cooling fabric that Nectar calls “breathable cooling cover.” Designed with heat-wicking properties and covered with an anti-microbial treatment, it helps regulate body temperature throughout the night. It is also hypoallergenic and soft to the touch, creating a luxurious sleep surface.
Therapeutic Memory Foam Layer
Directly beneath the cover lies a 3-inch thick therapeutic memory foam layer. This layer is softer and designed to provide contouring support, relieving pressure points around the shoulders, hips, and lower back. This layer is especially important to give the heavier parts in a sleeper’s body to decompress into.
Dynamic Response Support Layer
The next layer is the 3-inch Dynamic Response Support layer, which acts as a transition between the soft top layer and the firmer support core. This layer enhances the mattress’ responsiveness, preventing you from feeling stuck in the foam, while also adding extra support.
ActiveSupport Stability Base Memory Foam
This layer is 8 inches thick, and firmer than the transition foam. It adds resilience and stability to the mattress, ensuring that the high-pressure areas get the support they need to be properly aligned. It provides additional lumbar support, ensuring proper spinal alignment. This layer also helps in minimizing motion transfer, making it ideal for couples.
Nectar Luxe Mattress Sleep Tests
Everything we felt in one box
| Firmness | Temperature | Maintenance | Sleeping Style | Bed Base |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
We have rated the Nectar Luxe a 7 / 10 on the firmness scale, making it a medium-firm mattress, slightly firmer than the average mattress. It combines a strong foundation for spinal alignment, while providing the right amount of pressure relief for most sleepers. |
For an all-foam mattress, the Nectar Luxe performs well on the temperature front. While it doesn’t sleep cool, it also does not trap the body’s heat and we have found it to sleep very comfortably, even on hot Florida nights. |
The Nectar Luxe mattress cover is not removable, so you’ll need to spot-clean it, if necessary. Use a mild detergent and water, and be sure not to saturate the fabric, as excess moisture can seep into the foam layers. Simply blot the stain (do not rub) until the stain disappears. We always recommend using a waterproof mattress protector. |
The Nectar Luxe is great for all back sleepers, providing the right combination of pressure relief and support. We also recommend it to side sleepers under 200 lbs, and for light-weight stomach sleepers who have a personal preference for softer mattresses. |
The Nectar Luxe fits on all bases (foundation, slats, box springs, platform) and adjustable bases. |
Firmness
Firmness is a critical factor when choosing a mattress, and the Nectar Luxe mattress offers a medium-firm feel, falling around a 7 out of 10, on the firmness scale. This firmness level makes it suitable for a variety of sleepers. It provides enough give for most side sleepers, yet maintains sufficient support for back sleepers and some stomach sleepers.
Side Sleepers
Most side sleepers will appreciate the pressure relief offered by the gel memory foam layer, particularly around the shoulders and hips. However, those who prefer a plush feel might find this mattress a bit too firm, depending on their weight and personal preference. We recommend the Nectar Luxe for side sleepers under 200 lbs.
Back Sleepers
For back sleepers, the Nectar Luxe mattress shines. The medium-firm support ensures that your spine stays aligned while providing enough cushioning to support the lumbar area. This balance makes it a great option for anyone who needs pressure relief without sacrificing support.
Stomach Sleepers
Light-weight stomach sleepers, and those with a personal preference for plush mattresses, will find adequate support from the firmer layers of this mattress, helping to keep the hips from sinking too much, which can cause spinal misalignment. We only recommend the Nectar Luxe to lower-weight stomach sleepers.
Temperature
Temperature regulation is a common issue with memory foam mattresses, as they tend to trap body heat. However, the Nectar Luxe mattress includes multiple cooling technologies to combat this problem.
Cooling Cover
As mentioned earlier, the Nectar Luxe mattress cover is specifically designed to wick away body-generated heat. This keeps the surface of the mattress cooler, making it more comfortable for extended periods of sleep, especially during warmer months.
Breathable Design
Thanks to its multi-layered construction, the Nectar Luxe mattress promotes airflow, allowing heat to escape more efficiently than traditional memory foam mattresses.
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer is an essential consideration for couples, especially if one, or both partners, tend to move frequently during the night. The Nectar Luxe mattress excels in this area thanks to its all-foam construction.
Memory foam, by design, absorbs motion rather than transferring it. The multiple layers of foam in the Nectar Luxe mattress act as a cushion for any movement, whether you are shifting positions or getting in and out of bed. This feature makes it an excellent choice for couples, as it minimizes disturbances when one person moves.
Maintenance & Care
Maintaining the Nectar Luxe mattress is straightforward, but it does require some care to ensure longevity.
Cleaning the Cover
The cover on the Nectar Luxe mattress is not removable, so you will need to spot-clean it, when necessary. Use a mild detergent and water, and be sure not to saturate the fabric, as excess moisture can seep into the foam layers. Blot the stain (rubbing it could extend it) and let fully dry before covering with your sheets. As always – try to tend to the stain as early as possible for better chances of fully cleaning it up.
Mattress Protector
While the mattress cover is designed to be hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking, using a high-quality waterproof mattress protector is recommended. This will protect the mattress from spills, stains, and dust mites, prolonging its lifespan.
Rotating the Mattress
Like most foam mattresses, it is recommended to rotate the mattress 180 degrees every 3 to 6 months. This helps distribute wear evenly, particularly if you sleep in the same spot each night.
Who Is The Nectar Luxe Mattress Good For?
The Nectar Luxe mattress offers a versatile sleep experience, making it suitable for a wide range of sleepers. Here’s a quick breakdown of who would benefit most from this mattress:
Best for Back Sleepers
With its medium-firm support and excellent spinal alignment, back sleepers will find the Nectar Luxe mattress comfortable and supportive. The foam layers contour to the natural curve of the spine, providing relief where it is needed most.
Couples
The low motion transfer makes this mattress an excellent choice for couples, particularly if one person moves frequently during the night. The foam construction absorbs movement, so you’re less likely to be disturbed by your partner’s tossing and turning.
Hot Sleepers
The cooling technologies embedded in the Nectar Luxe mattress, from the gel-infused foam to the breathable cover, make it a solid option for hot sleepers. It may not be as cool as hybrid mattresses with coils, but it performs well for an all-foam model.
People Seeking Pressure Relief
If you suffer from joint or back pain, the multiple foam layers provide adequate pressure relief, particularly for side sleepers who often experience pressure in the hips and shoulders.
Budget-Conscious Shoppers
Given its quality and features, the Nectar Luxe mattress offers excellent value for money. Nectar often runs promotions, making this mattress accessible for a wide range of budgets.
