Luxi Mattress Review
Four foam layers you can rearrange yourself — Luxi turns 'pick a firmness' into an actual choice, from soft to medium to firm.
Each sleeper can adjust the layers on their side of the bed to the firmness they prefer.
Our reviewerThe Most Versatile Bed We've Reviewed
Luxi's pitch is unlike anything else in the mattress-in-a-box category: four foam layers that the sleeper can rearrange to change the bed's firmness. Reorder them one way and it's a soft 3 out of 10; another way and it's a firm 8. We tested the medium arrangement, which lands at 6.
In that medium configuration — latex on top, then memory foam, memory foam squares, and a poly-foam base — support was adequate, though noticeably firmer than with the softest layer order. Swapping in the dense poly-foam as the top layer firms things up further, at the cost of some plushness.
The real appeal is for two sleepers who can't agree on a mattress. Each side of the bed can be arranged independently, and the quilted cover hides the split well enough that it's only noticeable if you go looking for it.
Sinkage measured about 2 inches with the medium arrangement, more with the soft order and almost none with the firm one. Horizontal movement was minimal across every configuration we tried.
Heat wasn't a concern in any arrangement: the aerated latex and open-structure memory foam let warmth travel through easily, and any off-gassing smell was light and faded quickly. For a couple who've never agreed on a mattress firmness, Luxi ends the argument outright.
Why We Love It
- Four foam layers can be rearranged for three distinct firmness levels (3, 6 or 8 out of 10)
- Each side of the bed can be tuned independently — ideal for couples with different preferences
- Aerated latex and memory foam construction sleeps cool with minimal off-gassing
- Massive 1000-night trial period
Considerations
- Getting the firmest support means giving up some of the plush top-layer feel
- Finding your ideal arrangement takes some trial and error
Our Hands-On Review
For this review, we tested the medium arrangement: latex on top, followed by memory foam, memory foam squares, and a poly-foam support base. It offered adequate support, and swapping to denser poly-foam at the top firmed things up noticeably at the cost of some plushness.
We were curious how the memory foam layers would handle heat, since that material tends to run warm. Between the aerated latex and the memory foam's open structure, heat traveled easily through the mattress, and every arrangement we tried stayed cool. There was no strong off-gassing smell, and any scent faded quickly.
Two Sleepers, Two Firmnesses
The quilted cover hides the customizable split well — it's only noticeable if you go looking for it — making Luxi a genuine option for two sleepers who want different firmness on each side of the same bed.

The medium arrangement — the configuration we tested — stacks latex over memory foam, memory foam squares and a poly-foam base.
First Layer
1.5 inches of aerated dunlop latex — the top of the medium arrangement, giving firmer support
Third Layer
3.5 inches of memory foam squares for compression, helping the sleeper's body settle into the right posture
Bottom Layer
3.5-inch poly-foam support layer for the whole bed; can be used as the top layer for a firmer feel
