If you’ve ever slept on a soft foam mattress, you know just how comfortable it can be. But, you’ve probably also experienced one of the main drawbacks of foam mattresses—sleeping hot. Foam mattresses can trap your body heat and turn your bed into an oven.
That’s why I was so interested in the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze mattress. It is designed to offer a soft, slow-moving foam feel while also keeping you nice and cool. How does it work? Read on for my in-depth TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze mattress review.

TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Mattress Review: General Overview
TEMPUR-Pedic is a brand that is known for its proprietary TEMPUR material. Before every other mattress brand started using memory foam, Tempur-Pedic was already experimenting with conforming, pressure-relieving foams. But, many of the Tempur-Pedic mattresses have also been known for making people overheat. I’ve tried a few of the other models, and I can attest to this.
However, the two TEMPUR-Breeze mattresses are designed to combat issues with overheating. I have also reviewed the TEMPUR-ProBreeze, but the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze has even more advanced cooling properties. It was one of the cooler mattresses I have reviewed, but it did have its issues as well.
Pros of the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Mattress
- Fans of a memory foam feel
- Hot sleepers
- Side sleepers
Cons of the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Mattress
- Stomach sleepers
- Those with mobility issues
- Value sleepers

TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Firmness and Feel
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze is available in multiple firmness options—Soft, Medium Hybrid and Firm. I received the Medium Hybrid for review, and I’m going to talk about what it feels like.
How Firm Is The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze?
The Medium Hybrid version of the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze was as firm as advertised. It scored a 6/10, which is just softer than the industry standard for a medium-firm mattress. The top layers of TEMPUR material are soft, but they are also dense. When I lay down, the mattress felt firm at first, and it took some time for the mattress to compress under my body. According to the brand, the mattress should soften up even more over time.
Sleeping On The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze
I started off back sleeping on the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze, and its firmness was just right. I slowly sank into the top layer of the mattress and felt it conform to my curves. The coils and thick foam also pushed back against my body, so I never felt unsupported.
Side sleeping was also a dream on the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze. I often have trouble bottoming out on soft memory foam mattresses, but I had no such issues on the LuxeBreeze. The TEMPUR material kept me in good alignment while also cushioning my shoulders and hips.
Stomach sleeping was not so great on this mattress, however. I did not get enough support under my hips and center mass, and it felt like I was bowing into the mattress. Stomach sleepers should look at the Firm model or one of our best firm mattresses.
What Does The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Feel Like?
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze lives up to the TEMPUR moniker. Like the other TEMPUR-Pedic mattress I have tried, the LuxeBreeze has an extremely slow-moving feel. It really feels like quicksand. When I lay down, the mattress slowly let me sink in.
This feel is not for everyone, however. I like feeling the soft hug of a Tempur-Pedic mattress but, if you have mobility issues, this won’t be the mattress for you. The TEMPUR material makes it difficult to move around, and you could feel stuck in the mattress.
| Sleeper Weight | Back Sleepers | Side Sleepers | Stomach Sleepers |
| Lightweight (Under 130 lb) | Good | Good | Fair |
| Average (130 – 230 lb) | Excellent | Excellent | Fair |
| Heavyweight (Over 230 lb) | Good | Good | Bad |
TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Mattress Construction
I always like to get a look at the inner workings of each mattress I review. I pulled back the cover to see what’s really going on inside the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze.
Cover
Right on top, the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze boasts a SmartClimate Cover. It has two layers, and the top layer is removable for easy cleaning. It creates a cool-to-the-touch feel on top of the mattress.
Comfort Layers
Moving down to the top layers, you’ll find some soft TEMPUR material along with Pure Cool Plus technology. This draws heat away from your body and also helps keep you cool at night.
The mattress also features Hybrid Material which provides the mattress with more bounce and pressure relief. In addition, there is a layer of Tempur-Pedic’s proprietary Ventilated Advanced Relief Material. This adds some more softness to the mattress and is designed to dissipate heat.
Support Layer
The Medium Hybrid version of this mattress contains double-stacked innerspring coils. These allow for more airflow in the bottom part of the mattress and provide a good amount of support.
Mattress Height
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze is 13” tall.

TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Mattress Performance
My testing of the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze didn’t stop with firmness and feel. I also ran a number of tests to see how cooling and supportive it is.
Sleeping Hot or Cold
For a foam hybrid mattress, the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze slept quite cold. When I slept on the mattress, I could feel the cooling cover, and I did not overheat during the night. I often overheat on foam hybrids, but I can say this didn’t happen on the LuxeBreeze.
That being said, it did not sleep as cool as on the Purple or Avocado mattresses. The Purple’s gel grid keeps the mattress nice and breathable, and the latex found in the Avocado traps no heat. If you sleep super hot, you can also look at our best cooling mattresses.
Motion Transfer
On your current mattress, does your partner wake you up when they move around at night? You might be experiencing motion transfer, as their movements travel across the mattress.
Mattresses with thick foam on top are usually great at isolating motion, and the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze is no exception. I placed a glass of water on one side of the mattress and pushed into the other areas. The water was not disturbed in the least.
This lets me know it should be a good mattress for couples.
Edge Support
Besides motion transfer, couples should also think about edge support. If your mattress has a firm, supportive edge, you and your partner will be able to sleep toward the edge without rolling off.
While the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze didn’t have the best edge support I have ever experienced, it was still quite good. I sat and lay down near the edge of the mattress, and the foam only collapsed a bit. I didn’t feel like I was going to fall onto the ground, but I still slept a few inches away from the edge to be sure.
Durability
TEMPUR material is known for being very durable, and the other Tempur-Pedic mattresses have lasted for a number of years. The LuxeBreeze is also more advanced than the other Tempur-Pedic mattresses, so it should last for even longer. With this in mind, the mattress should last for at least 10 years, if not more.
Off-gassing
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze arrived fully expanded, so there was no off-gassing to speak of. Even though it was wrapped in a plastic bag, it did not give off the chemical smell I have experienced when unboxing most online mattresses.
Noise
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze was also quiet as a mouse. The TEMPUR material cut almost all sound, so when I moved around, I heard nothing. However, keep in mind that this model contains coils, which could start to squeak as they weaken over time.
Sex
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze will not be a good mattress for sex. It offers almost no bounce, and this makes it very hard to move around and change positions. Sexual partners will want a bouncy latex mattress or hybrid to give them ease of movement.
TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Company Policies
Before buying any mattress, it’s always a good idea to look at the fine print. Overall, Tempur-Pedic offers some decent customer service terms.
Warranty Info
You get a 10-year limited warranty with the TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze. This covers any mattress defects or extreme sagging with the foam.
Sleep Trial
The mattress comes with a 90-day sleep trial. If, between the 30 and 90 mark, you are unhappy with your mattress, you can return for a refund.
Return Policy
You get free shipping with all Tempur-Pedic mattresses and white glove delivery with select mattresses. If you have to return your mattress, you may have to pay to ship it back to the brand.
Common Tempur-Pedic Mattress Complaints
Most of the Tempur-Pedic mattress complaints center around the brand’s return policy. Some customers had trouble returning their pillows, mattresses and bedding and found the return policy to be confusing and misleading.
How Does The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze Compare To Others?
Before we finish, I’d like to do a little comparison shopping. The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze has many pros, but how does it do against the competition?

Medium-firm: 6.5/10Score
The Purple RejuvenatePlus is also designed to promote cooling, but it is a very different mattress than the LuxeBreeze. It features a plush pillow top, multiple layers of foam and Purple’s proprietary GelFlex Grid. This material is bouncy, and even more breathable and cooling than the foams found in the LuxeBreeze. However, it does cost a bit more than the LuxeBreeze.

Final Thoughts
The TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze sleeps quite cool for a foam hybrid mattress. I loved side sleeping on the mattress, and it gave me that soft, conforming feel I have experienced with other Tempur-Pedic mattresses. However, I think stomach sleepers, those who want to move around easily and those aiming to save some money should keep looking.
TEMPUR-LuxeBreeze FAQs
Does Tempur-Pedic Breeze technology work?
In my experience, the Tempur-Pedic Breeze technology kept me from overheating. However, it did not sleep as cool as other mattresses I have tried. The Purple mattress, for example, was more breathable and cooling.
Can you flip the Tempur-LuxeBreeze mattress?
No, you cannot flip this mattress. It is only designed to rest with the cover on top and the base foam or coils on the bottom.
What is the difference between LuxeBreeze and ProBreeze?
The LuxeBreeze is the more advanced model. It features more cooling and comfort materials and comes in more firmness options. However, it also costs more than the ProBreeze.
