Product Research: Our Process

At Best Sleep Society, we carefully analyze mattress features to understand how they affect sleep quality. Our research process helps us evaluate comfort, support, and durability. This guide provides insight into how we assess the sleep experience.
Evaluating Comfort and Support
Our marking matrix is a detailed scoring system that evaluates each mattress based on critical aspects like comfort, support, durability, and temperature regulation. Expert sleep testers conduct an extensive analysis that considers various body types and sleep positions, ensuring comprehensive and relevant ratings for a wide audience.
Long-Term Performance Assessment
As mattresses age, they may undergo wear and tear, potentially affecting their initial comfort and support. To address this, our long-term analysis includes feedback from users who have slept on the mattresses for extended periods. This allows us to evaluate how well the products perform in real-world use and whether they maintain their shape, support, and overall quality over time.
Why We Look at Additional Services
In addition to our in-house tests and analysis, we thoroughly evaluate customer service, warranty policies, and setup and delivery ease. These factors play a crucial role in overall consumer satisfaction. A positive experience from purchase to longevity reflects a brand's commitment to quality and customer care, completing our comprehensive product research approach.

Unboxing and First Impressions

Similar to other bed-in-a-box models, this Casper Hybrid Mattress arrives at your doorstep in a box, compressed and plastic-wrapped. We recommend using a spacious area to unbox your new Casper bed, as it expands to its full form in a matter of a few minutes. The Casper bed will be ready to sleep on right away but we recommend letting it expand for 48 hours for ideal comfort.

Comfort

From the moment you lie down on Casper Original Hybrid, you will fall in love with the cushiony comfort it offers. The cozy knit cover combined with the premium memory foams and flex coils cater to top-tier comfort and support for your body. The ergonomic zoned support minimizes pressure points and alleviates pain to provide the most restorative experience. Add in proper spinal alignment, and this hybrid mattress creates a perfectly balanced sleeping experience that can be restorative and soothing.

Firmness

If you want to find Casper mattress reviews that assess the firmness level of each Casper bed, you’ve come to the right place. Mattress firmness can be a game-changing difference to the quality of your sleep, and a true medium-firm mattress is hard to come by. With its innovative construction and premium materials, Casper Original Hybrid has succeeded in giving you the most balanced and supportive feel in its firmness. Ranking 6.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale, this Casper hybrid mattress offers a spot-on amount of bounce and responsiveness to your body. 

Motion Transfer

In our Casper bed reviews, we always test for motion transfer, as we know how important this factor is. If you’re someone who shares your bed with a partner, kid, or pet, feeling their movement every time they toss and turn can be frustrating. To address this, Casper Original Hybrid minimizes motion transfer across the mattress by cleverly utilizing the individually pocketed springs of the mattress. Our in-house tests confirmed this observation, indicating you will have minimum interruptions to your beauty sleep on this Casper hybrid mattress. 

Cooling

AirScape® Technology is truly one of the most innovative features of Casper mattresses, facilitating more airflow across the mattress to wick away heat and moisture. Elevated breathability provides an optimal, cool sleeping surface for a cozy night’s sleep. For hot sleepers, this is a breakthrough technology that can significantly increase their sleep quality. We were quite satisfied with our cooling test results of 17.3 °C of surface temperature after 30 minutes lying down on the mattress. For those looking for extra cooling properties, Casper Canada has a range of cooling mattresses including the Snow and Wave Hybrid Snow in Medium,Plush, and Firm.  

Edge Support

The Casper Original Hybrid features a firm border around the mattress to reinforce edge support and enhance its durability. This helps individuals get in and out of bed easily, and sit or lie down closer to the edge of the mattress with no discomfort. There was no sinking feeling, or slipping or falling off, indicating the Casper hybrid mattress is thoughtfully designed to offer stability across, including the edges. 

Sinkage and Responsiveness

Casper Original Hybrid’s medium-firm structure has made this one of the most stable Casper mattresses you will encounter. With less sinkage and a bit of bounce to provide cushioned comforts, this Casper hybrid mattress feels just right. As the flex coils increase responsiveness to your body, the mattress recovers and responds fast, adding to its already impressive list of pros.  

How does it suit different sleeping positions?

Side Sleepers

For side sleepers, this Casper hybrid mattress is their dream come true! Although memory foam mattresses are better recommended for side sleepers, Casper Original Hybrid does a stellar job, providing great comfort for side sleepers’ shoulders and neck while keeping their hips aligned. There is ample cushioning with no excessive sinkage to promote a contouring, yet supportive feel. With targeted pressure relief, they can enjoy pain-free sleep to wake up refreshed every time. 

Back Sleepers

Casper Original Hybrid’s Zoned Support™  helps maintain the natural curves in the spine for a balanced, supportive feel for the back, hips, and neck while ensuring optimal spinal alignment. The medium-firmness helps even weight distribution for back sleepers and alleviates pressure from key pain points of their body. As back sleepers rely on consistent support to maintain spinal health, a durable mattress like this one can be a great investment!

Stomach Sleepers

Stomach sleepers tend to love a medium-firm to firm mattress which caters more to keeping their spine aligned and relieving pressure from their chest and abdomen. For this reason, Casper Canada’s Original Hybrid is a great choice, as its optimal firmness, pressure relief, and minimal sinkage ensure comfort for stomach sleepers. Meanwhile, this Casper bed does a great job of maintaining a neutral spine to prevent the hips, shoulders, or neck being strained.

Combination Sleepers

If you switch sleeping positions and toss and turn all the time, Casper Original Hybrid will still be an amazing choice for you. As this Casper Canada mattress has great responsiveness to your body and adapts quickly to any sleeping position, you will not feel uncomfortable or unstable in any position. Medium-firm mattresses are the ideal choice for combination sleepers as they provide the perfect balance between support and comfort. Not to mention, if you’re a combination sleeper who shares their bed, supreme motion isolation can be very beneficial, and this Casper bed excels in all of these areas for uninterrupted, deep slumber. 

Lightweight Sleepers

Lightweight sleepers can benefit from the supportive, balanced construction of this Casper hybrid mattress that prevents excessive bounce, while the medium-firm feel works perfectly to align your spine and give you the optimal pressure relief you need. 

Heavy People

Casper Original Hybrid supports a range of sleepers including heavier individuals. As this is a medium-firm mattress, if you prefer a firmer option, you can opt for one of these Casper mattresses: Casper Dawn Extra Firm mattress or Casper Wave Hybrid Snow Firm mattress.  

Should You Buy the Casper Original Hybrid?

 

Casper Original Hybrid is a versatile, premium hybrid mattress that provides excellent support and comfort for anyone. The signature AirScape® Technology ensures a sweat-free night’s sleep, wrapped in cozy comforts, while the ergonomic zoned support and firm border cater to exceptional support for the body. This Casper hybrid mattress offers superior pressure relief which benefits those who suffer from back pain (in fact, the Original Hybrid is considered one of the best mattresses for back pain), and effectively increases the quality of sleep. 

This Casper bed stands out amongst other hybrid mattresses in Canada, such as Logan & Cove Pinnacle Hybrid, Emma Hybrid Premium Plus, and DreamCloud Premier Rest. However,if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly mattress with hybrid technology, consider the Casper Atlas Hybrid Mattress).
