Tempur-Adapt Medium – Hybrid: The Final Word
It’s cooling. It’s soft. It’s contouring. At the same time, it’s somehow also firm and supportive. Like every other mattress on this list, it’s the product of a luxury line of mattresses, but unlike every other mattress on this list, it offers the most affordable price tag. If you want the feel of a cult classic for less money, go with the Tempur-Adapt Medium – Hybrid.

If you live in a hot and humid climate and have struggled for good sleep because of it, this is the mattress for you. Eight here is the magic number; the Tempur-LUXEbreeze boasts a cooler feel over all other Tempur-Pedic mattresses listed here by up to a whopping eight degrees. It also contains a TEMPUR-APR® layer, which doesn’t sound so special in and of itself, until you realize that unlike the other mattresses’ TEMPUR-APR® layers, the Tempur-LUXEbreeze’s contain ventilated passageways. All around, you can’t get any cooler than this one.

“My husband and I love our new Tempurpedic LUXEBreeze. It is supportive and has reduced our joint pain.” – ErinR773, September 2020
“This was our first mattress purchase for desire over need, so we really got exactly what we wanted. We are definitely not disappointed, as this is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. The cooling features of the bed make it that much more comfy. For hot sleepers who like a firm supporting mattress, this is truly the best choice. The only downside is that it’s very tall, about waist-high. If you’re on the fence, I say go for it.” – NAmador, September 2020
“I bought the firm mattress, and it has provided great lower back support.” – Arthur, September 2020
Tempur-LUXEbreeze Firm: The Final Word
For hot sleepers, the best investment money can buy.
5. The TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid
(Best Hybrid)
The TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid raises the bar with 20% more TEMPUR material than the Tempur-Adapt Medium – Hybrid.
- Advanced pressure relief: TEMPUR-APR®:
20% more TEMPUR® Material than Adapt™ - Cooling cover
- Medium feel for side sleepers
- Spring and foam hybrid
Decade after decade, the TEMPUR foam material has proven that it’s nailed the science of pressure relief, adaptability and comfort. It’s great in theory, but unfortunately, there are just some things that an all-foam mattress can’t do that a hybrid can. Enter the TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid, which harnesses the moldable, memory power of foam with the bounce power of springs. The springs here naturally make the bed airier. (They also offer a bit more resistance than an all-foam mattress, meaning more support.) This Tempur-Pedic hybrid model is also found in the Tempur-Adapt Medium – Hybrid (#3 on this list). If you want a thicker mattress, we recommend the TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid, as it offers 20% more TEMPUR® material than the Tempur-Adapt Medium – Hybrid.
TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid Featured Reviews
“After checking on about 15 different types of mattresses at 8 or so different stores, we decided on this one. The salesperson was helpful and knew all about the different mattresses. The hybrid is absolutely perfect for us. It felt unusual for the first 2-3 nights, but that’s because we weren’t used to perfection . . . . We think this was a perfect purchase for us. It was expensive for sure, but Living Spaces beat everyone else’s price easily. And our health and COMFORT are worth it. We are sleeping in bliss now.” – LewMan, May 2020
“Both my husband and I have back problems, have been through a few mattresses from decent to somewhat expensive. This mattress beats anything we have ever owned or tried by far!! Everyone in the world should have one!!!” – Yani, April 2020
TempurPro-Adapt Medium – Hybrid: The Final Word
20% more material means higher weight-bearing efficiency and more targeted support. For couples who share a bed, the TempurPro-Adapt Medium can make all the difference.
Bonus Contender: The Tempur-Pedic Adjustable Base
It’s not exactly a mattress, so we’re not including it as part of the official list. It is, however, a game-changer in mattress comfort, so we’d be amiss if we didn’t mention it at least somewhere in an article devoted to Tempur-Pedic comfort.
Of course, we’re talking about the Tempur Ergo Adjustable Base. As of 2021, it’s still relatively new to the market, but it’s here, with a bang. Designed to go with any of the mattresses above, it features all the classics, like size choices, easy bed placement and platform tilt. But it’s also so much more.
Unlike the adjustable base you’ve slept on for decades, the Ergo comes smarter. Features include a remote control, so that as you fall sleep, you can customize your position exactly as you want it. There’s also the four removable legs for easy assembly and positioning. And yet, these few details are just the tip of the iceberg. Discover more about the design (and more) here, and pair the Ergo with any of the five mattresses above to take your sleep to the next level.
