Hey, y'all. Elisa here, reviewer at Mattress Clarity everyone
loves a good deal, right? Well, the Lucid 10 inch, gel memory foam
mattress is about affordable as they come.
But is it the right one for you? To help you figure it out,
I'll go over its firmness, feel, and unique features.
But first, remember, you can always find more information about this mattress at
mattressclarity.com in addition to some money saving coupons.
All right, let's get started.
Let's start by doing a basic overview of the Lucid 10 inch gel memory foam
mattress. First of all this bed is covered by a 10
year warranty, so it should last you a significant amount of time.
It also has a 30 night sleep trial period, so you've got a little bit
of time to figure out whether it's the best for you, and free shipping
is available. Let's talk about the construction of this mattress. It's
surrounded by a thin, stretchy breathable cover,
and for its comfort layer, it consists of three inches of
gel infused memory foam Gel is meant to dissipate
body heat and to further keep you cool at night. It is ventilated for extra
airflow. I will say, though, if you're already a pretty hot sleeper,
this mattress might have a tendency to trap a bit of body heat.
So you might want to look for a hybrid mattress if you're concerned about
that. For support, it's got a thick layer of high density base
foam. This is going to help you maintain a nice neutral alignment throughout the
night. And another nice perk is that it's infused with bamboo charcoal,
which keeps your mattress smelling nice and fresh and clean.
The Lucid Memory foam mattress is a Bed-in-a-box mattress, so you
will need to unbox it before you can rest on it. To do that,
make sure you get a friend for help, then place it onto your bed frame
or foundation and gently cut through the layers of plastic. Give it about
48 hours to off gas and expand, and you'll be good to go.
When we're reviewing mattresses, we always pay close attention to firmness and
feel. The Lucid memory foam mattress is available in
three different firmness levels, but we are testing out the medium firm model
and it feels like a classic medium firm. On our firmness scale
that comes in at six and a half out of ten. And when you rest
on top of it, you're going to feel a lot of that quick sand,
slow moving memory foam feel. You're going to gently
sink into that top layer. It is a bit difficult to move around on top
of this bed, but if you're a fan of body contouring, this mattress is a
good way to go. Let's talk about what it's like in each sleeping position.
For me personally, five foot three, average weight, it feels
super comfy. While I'm back sleeping, I can really feel that high
density support layer at the bottom giving me that lumbar support that I
need side sleeping. It's also a good choice because that top foam
layer really cushions my shoulders and my hips. When I
moved to my stomach, though, it's really not the best choice for me.
Over time, I can feel like my hips will start to sink out of
alignment, which could lead to some lower back pain, and nobody wants
that. If you share a bed with a partner, you want to pay close attention
to your mattress motion isolation and edge support. So let's
start by talking about motion isolation first. To test this, we put
a glass full of water on the bed and pushed around to see how much
disturbance was happening in the glass. There really wasn't a whole lot
happening here, which is great news for couples. So if your partner starts
shifting sleeping positions in the night, you really shouldn't feel that
movement come over to your side of the bed. But when it comes to edge
support, this mattress leaves a little to be desired.
You're going to sink through the top layer a little bit and it's not going
to feel as secure as you might want it to be. So when you're sitting
or resting near the side of the bed, you will sink in just a little
bit. I mentioned that this is an affordable mattress, but you might be wondering
exactly how much this bed costs. Well, it's only available on Amazon
and a queen size cost about $342, which is a
steal. Before I wrap up, I'm going to go over some of the pros and
cons of the Lucid 10 inch gel memory foam mattress. Starting with
the pros, this bed works really well for lightweight to average weight people.
If you fall within that weight range, you're going to get a great balance of
comfort and support. It's also a really good choice for fans of a slow moving
memory foam feel. You're going to gently sink into it and get lots
of lovely body contouring. And finally, this bed is
super affordable, so if you're trying to save a little bit of dough, this is
a great way to go. And we got to talk about the cons as
well. So this bed is not the best choice for heavier folks. Heavier people
will probably sink through that comfort layer quite a bit and it could bottom
out and not get the support that they need. This mattress isn't also
a great choice for people who sleep especially hot at
night. There are some really great cooling features, but ultimately
this is an all foam bed and they just tend to trap a bit more
body heat. It's also not the best choice for stomach sleepers,
The medium firm mattress is not going to provide enough support. So if
you tend to sleep on your stomach, definitely opt or at the firm model.
Well, that's about it. If you need more information about this mattress,
