Leesa Natural Hybrid Mattress Review

The memory foam in the Leesa Natural goes a long way toward giving it strong motion isolation. Latex beds tend to be bouncier, but you can sleep on the Leesa Natural with a partner and hardly feel each other. – Brad

The Leesa Natural Hybrid Mattress isolates motion quite well. Its quilted cotton cover and wool layer dampen vibrations, while the memory foam comfort layer absorbs more significant movement.

Despite the Talalay latex layer’s buoyancy, it also doesn’t transfer much movement, and two polyfoam transition layers further isolate vibrations. Finally, the core uses individually pocketed coils so minimal motion spreads.

Our testers reported feeling little to no movement when a partner changed positions on the opposite side of the bed. While our motion sensors picked up minor vibrations when we dropped a kettlebell on one side of the bed, we expect most sleepers won’t notice this level of motion transfer.

The Leesa Natural’s latex and memory foam both relieve pressure in their own ways, so combined you can really feel them work together to form this supportive, cradling effect. – Jackson

The quilted cotton cover and wool layer gently cushion the surface, while the top memory foam layer molds closely to the sleeper’s curves to redistribute pressure so it doesn’t build up around one area.

The secondary Talalay latex layer extends the cradling while restricting sinkage. Two polyfoam layers help ensure the sleeper’s body doesn’t press directly against the coil core.

Our pressure mapping pad showed that most of our testers experienced relatively even pressure distribution with no notable pressure points.

Memory foam can be tricky to use in beds, because it provides great comfort at the cost of heat retention. The Leesa Natural’s smart design and breathable materials work to counteract any heat buildup you get from the top memory foam layer. As a hot sleeper, I was able to sleep largely without issue on the Leesa Natural. – Lauren

The Leesa Natural Hybrid’s cotton cover allows airflow into the mattress, while its wool layer naturally regulates temperature and moisture. The Talalay latex is also highly breathable, as is the coil system.

We took surface temperature readings after a heat source was removed and detected only mild heat retention. Our team members who sleep hot also didn’t report feeling uncomfortably warm at any point during the testing process.

The edges on the Leesa Natural Hybrid are stronger than we usually see. I was able to lay basically on the edges of the mattress without issue, giving me plenty of room to spread out. – Jackson

While most hybrid mattresses have reasonable edge support, the Leesa Natural Hybrid truly excels in this category. Its comfort system is a generous 4.25 inches thick, and it’s supportive right up to the edges. The core also contains a reinforced perimeter, giving the sides of the bed a sturdy feel.

Our testers of all weights felt secure lying and sitting along the edges of the bed. Thanks to the stable perimeter, couples may feel that they have more usable room, and individuals with mobility issues may find it easier to get into and out of bed.

The Leesa Natural has a smooth, underlying bounce to it thanks to the coil core and latex under its memory foam. There’s a bit of give to the bed, but I was able to change positions and move around without too much effort. – Brad

With several responsive components, the Leesa Natural Hybrid is fairly easy to move on. While many mattresses with memory foam feel restrictive because of the material’s close conforming and slow response to changes in pressure, the Leesa Natural Hybrid balances it out with responsive Talalay latex and springy coils that facilitate movement.

When our testers tried to move across the surface and change positions, they didn’t feel like the bed significantly inhibited their movement. Sleepers who like the feel of memory foam but value ease of movement may appreciate this balanced design.

The Leesa Natural’s off-gassing was rather mild right out of the box. The bed’s breathable build helped it off-gass quickly, with hardly any odor remaining after we let it sit for a day. – Lauren

The Leesa Natural Hybrid Mattress has a slight initial off-gassing odor, which we expect of nearly all models that ship compressed and contain synthetic foam.

While we noted an initial odor upon unpacking the Leesa Natural Hybrid, team members reported that it mostly dissipated within 24 hours. Leesa uses CertiPUR-US certified foam and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified latex, meaning these materials meet relevant third-party standards related to potentially harmful substances.
