SWEETNIGHT RADIANT MATTRESS REVIEW
The SweetNight Radiant Gel Memory Foam Mattress is an all-foam budget mattress designed to provide sleepers with a blend of comfort, support, and temperature regulation.
Available in 10-inch and 12-inch thickness options, the SweetNight Radiant mattress caters to side-sleepers and lighter-weight back sleepers looking for plush and contouring cozy sleep.
Let’s take a closer look at the mattress’s composition, firmness levels, temperature regulation, maintenance requirements, motion isolation capabilities, suitability for different sleepers, and its pros and cons.
Company Policies & Recommendations
SweetNight Radiant Mattress - Composition
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress is a typical SweetNight mattress, constructed with three layers of foams, each serving a specific purpose to enhance the overall sleep experience. It is designed as a flippable mattress with a firm and a soft side, though we will discuss our thoughts on that later.
Both the 10-inch and 12-inch versions share the same fundamental layers, with the primary difference being the thickness of each layer in the 12-inch model, providing additional cushioning and support. For the purpose of this review, we have tested and reviewed the 12″ SweetNight Radiant Mattress.
1. Breathable Knitted Cover
The outermost layer of the mattress is a breathable knitted cover. This cover is designed to promote airflow, aiding in temperature regulation and ensuring a cool sleeping surface throughout the night.
We have found the fabric to be soft to the touch, enhancing the overall comfort of the mattress. Important to note – the cover is STANDARD 100 OEKO-TEX certified, ensuring it is free from harmful substances and safe for sleepers.
2. Gel-Infused Cooling Memory Foam
Beneath the cover lies a layer of gel-infused memory foam. This layer conforms to the body’s contours, providing plush contouring and pressure relief. The infusion of gel particles helps dissipate body heat by drawing excess heat from the body, preventing the common issue of heat retention associated with traditional memory foam mattresses.
3. Firm Comfort Foam
The second foam layer consists of a firmer comfort foam, which serves as a transition between the soft memory foam above and the denser support foam below. This layer adds a balanced level of firmness, ensuring that sleepers do not sink too deeply into the mattress while still enjoying adequate cushioning.
This layer provides further pressure relief to the heavier parts of the body (hips and shoulders), while starting to provide support to lighter areas.
4. High-Density Support Foam
The base layer is made of high-density support foam. This foundational layer provides structural integrity to the mattress, ensuring durability and consistent support over time. It maintains proper spinal alignment and prevents sagging, contributing to the mattress’s longevity.
If you flip the mattress to its firm side, this will be the layer your body sleeps on. While the SweetNight Radiant Mattress is marketed as a flippable mattress, we don’t recommend sleeping on the firm side as it misses a comfort layer. Sleeping right on high-density foam would lack some important pressure-relief needed to properly relief pressure in the heavier parts of the body, leading to potential pains and aches.
SweetNight Radiant Mattress Sleep Tests
Everything we felt in one box
| Firmness | Temperature | Maintenance | Sleeping Style | Bed Base |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress is a flippable, dual-firmness, mattress. We rated the soft side a 4.5/10, making it is a very soft and contouring mattress. The firm side is an 8/10 but lacks a comfort layer on top of the high-density layer, and we do not actually recommend it for sleep. |
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress sleeps temperature neutral. It uses gel-infused foam to prevent heat retention, working together with the breathable knitted cover to ensure heated body air moves through the mattress and does not overheat the body, helping it regulate its own temperature throughout the night. |
Blot fresh stains with a clean cloth, fresh water, and a mild detergent. Do not rub stains to avoid spreading them, and ensure the mattress is dry prior to covering it with sheets again. As always, we recommend protecting your mattress investment with a mattress protector. |
We recommend the SweetNight Clarity Mattress to all side-sleepers, as well as back sleepers under 150 lbs. Heavier back sleepers, as well as those with back pain and stomach sleepers, will benefit from a firmer mattress for proper support and spinal alignment. If you are a side-sleeper with a personal preference for firmer mattresses, or a medical condition warranting more support, you may also benefit from a firmer mattress. |
As with most modern mattresses, the SweetNight Radiant mattress can be placed on any bed frame – box springs, divan bases, traditional frames, slats, adjustable bases, and even the floor will do! It works really well with bunk beds as well. |
Firmness & Sleeping Styles
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress features a flippable design, offering two distinct firmness levels to accommodate different sleeper preferences. Let’s take a look at each side and share our thoughts:
Soft Side: 4.5/10
On its soft side, the mattress provides a soft and plush feel we have rated at 4.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest and 6.5 the average firmness). This side is ideal for sleepers who prefer a plush, contouring surface that alleviates pressure points, making it particularly suitable for side sleepers.
Sleeping styles: we recommend the soft side of the SweetNight Radiant for all side-sleepers, except those who have a personal preference or medical need for a firmer sleeping surface. The soft side provides the right amount of pressure relief to give the hip and shoulder areas the pressure relief they need, while supporting the rest of the body through the firmer foam layers below. Back sleepers under 150 lbs and with a preference for cushioning mattresses will also enjoy the balance of pressure relief and support they get from the SweetNight Radiant.
Firm Side: 8/10 (Not Recommended)
The opposite side of the mattress offers a firm feel we have rated an 8 out of 10. However, it’s important to note that this side lacks a comfort layer, which may result in a less comfortable sleep experience for most individuals. Therefore, we do not really recommend the firm side for regular use.
Sleeping styles: If you are a stomach sleeper who likes a very firm mattress and not looking for much cushioning or pressure relief, this may work for you, though we’d recommend choosing an 8/10 mattress with a comfort layer.
Temperature Regulation
Temperature regulation is a critical factor in achieving restful sleep, and the SweetNight Radiant Mattress addresses this through its thoughtful design for a performance we call temperature-neutral.
Cooling Performance
The gel-infused memory foam layer works in tandem with the breathable knitted cover to promote airflow and dissipate heat. This combination effectively prevents heat buildup, ensuring a cooler sleeping environment.
During our sleep tests, the mattress demonstrated good cooling capabilities, maintaining a comfortable temperature throughout the night by helping our bodies regulate their own temperature for comfortable sleep throughout the night.
Motion Transfer
Motion isolation is essential for couples or individuals sharing a bed, as it minimizes disturbances caused by a partner’s movements during sleep.
Performance in Motion Isolation
The all-foam construction of the SweetNight Radiant Mattress excels in absorbing motion, resulting in minimal transfer across the bed’s surface. We found it to be an excellent choice for light sleepers and couples.
Maintenance & Durability
Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of a mattress and ensure a consistently comfortable sleep experience.
Cleaning the Cover
While the breathable knitted cover enhances airflow and comfort, it is not removable nor machine-washable. We always recommend using a high-quality waterproof mattress protector to protect your mattress investment against accidental spills and stains.
In case of a stain, tend to it as quickly as possible. Simply blot the stain with a clean cloth, water, and mild detergent. Do not rub the stain as you’d risk spreading it, and try not to oversaturate the stain with water. Let the area fully dry prior to covering with your sheets again.
Rotating the Mattress
To promote even wear, it is recommended to rotate the mattress 180 degrees every three to six months. This practice helps prevent uneven compression and extends the mattress’s durability.
Using a Suitable Foundation
Ensuring that the mattress is placed on a supportive and compatible foundation is crucial to enjoy its full benefits. The SweetNight Radiant Mattress is compatible with various foundations, including box springs, platform beds, and adjustable bases. Using an appropriate foundation maintains the mattress’s structural integrity and comfort.
Who Is The SweetNight Radiant Mattress Good For?
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress caters to a diverse range of sleepers, thanks to its thoughtful design and versatile features.
Side Sleepers
The soft side of the mattress, with its plush feel and excellent pressure relief, is particularly suitable for side sleepers. It contours to the body’s natural curves, alleviating pressure points at the shoulders and hips.
Couples
With exceptional motion isolation capabilities, this mattress is ideal for couples. Movements from one partner are unlikely to disturb the other, ensuring uninterrupted sleep.
Hot Sleepers
The combination of a breathable cover and gel-infused memory foam makes this mattress a great option for hot sleepers. It effectively dissipates body heat, preventing overheating during the night.
Budget-Conscious Shoppers
The SweetNight Radiant Mattress offers excellent value for money, providing high-quality sleep and performance at a very competitive price point. It is a solid choice for shoppers looking for affordability without compromising on comfort.
Those Seeking a Flippable Mattress
If you’re unsure about your firmness preference, the dual-sided design of the SweetNight Radiant Mattress offers versatility. However, keep in mind that the firm side lacks a comfort layer and may not be ideal for long-term use.
