Danican Mattress Review
A Danish import built for softness, with a skating-rink-grade cover engineered to keep hot sleepers cool.
The Danican cool-to-the-touch fabric technology remains fresh without the use of chemical treatment.
Our research teamA Soft, Cool Bed for Couples
The Danican Cool Pointe is a Danish brand's first push into the American mattress market, and our review is based on researching the bed's construction and available customer reports rather than a night-by-night in-house sleep test. At 5 out of 10, it lands on the softer end of the scale, with the feel coming from two memory foam layers over a 4.5-inch high-density support base.
That softness produces roughly 3 inches of sinkage — standard for a bed this plush — and customers describe the memory foam top as hugging the sleeper closely. The upside for couples is motion isolation: the foam absorbs movement well enough that one partner can get in or out of bed without disturbing the other.
Cooling is a genuine strength. Beyond the open-cell memory foam, the Cool Pointe cover uses the same fabric technology found in ice-skating rinks to stay cool and dry without chemical treatment. The one real caution is off-gassing: at least one report describes a strong smell on first unboxing, though the foam is Certipur certified and the odor is not considered toxic.
At $897–$899 for a queen, with free shipping and a 30% discount currently applied to King and Cal King, the Danican is a reasonably priced way into a soft, cool-sleeping memory foam bed — best suited to couples who prioritize comfort and quiet nights over a firmer, more responsive surface.

Our Research Findings
Our review of the Danican draws on the manufacturer's stated construction and available customer reports rather than a single in-house sleep test. At a soft 5/10, the bed's two memory-foam layers create about 3 inches of sinkage and a close, hugging feel that customers describe favorably, with minimal motion transfer between partners.
The Cool Pointe cover — using the same fabric technology as skydiving gear and ice-skating rinks — was consistently reported to sleep cool and dry. The one recurring complaint is off-gassing on first unboxing; we recommend airing the mattress out before use, though its Certipur certification means the smell is not considered a health concern.
Built for Softer Sleepers
Stomach and side sleepers are best positioned to enjoy the Danican's plush feel; heavier back sleepers may want to test the support for themselves first.
