The Leesa mattress is one of the most well-known ‘bed-in-a-box’ mattresses in the USA and has made a name for themselves through their philanthropic efforts and social impact, as well as by partnering with leading swimmer, Michael Phelps, leading gymnast, Aly Raisman, and the Washington Redskins NFL team.

With the rise and popularity of ‘beds-in-boxes’, mattresses are now shipped far more efficiently and conveniently than traditional mattresses. Customers are no longer required to take a day off work to accept a delivery as boxed beds are now delivered with the same convenience as most Amazon orders. Some ‘bed-in-a-box’ companies even offer same day delivery to certain areas.

Leesa uses specialist logistics companies like UPS to deliver the Leesa mattress directly to customers doors throughout the USA and Canada. In some cases, the delivery can even be left on a porch or deck whilst the customer is at work. Shipping is free for Americans and Canadians and Leesa customers can expect their new mattress to be delivered within 2-8 business days.

Like many ‘bed-in-a-box’ companies, Leesa heavily promotes their mattress ‘sleep-trial’. At 100-nights, this ‘sleep trial’ is average in length, and they offer free mattress pick-up and a full refund when returned.

Customers who wish to return their Leesa mattress from Alaska or Hawaii will have to pay a $10 ‘return fee’.

It is worth noting that Mattress-Reviews.com did not complete the return process, but received this information via the ‘Live Chat’ function on Leesa’s website.

Out of the Box	Leesa
Delivered in a box:	Yes
Box dimensions:	15.5" x 15.5" x 45"
Box opening:	Required scissors
Box/mattress fitting:	Lots of space
Protection layers:	3
Expansion time:	48 hours

The Leesa mattress was delivered to us within the expected delivery time. The mattress was well protected by three layers of plastic within the box to protect the mattress during shipping.

Customers will definitely need scissors or a knife to open the box. Remember to be extra careful when opening the box with sharp objects.

Once opened the compressed mattress is easy to remove from the box. A simple ‘tip-and-pull’ motion is what we recommend. Simply tip the box from a vertical position into a horizontal position and pull the mattress out of the box. We recommend doing this process in the designated bedroom.

The Leesa mattress is protected with 3 layers of plastic and customers will need to unwrap the first layer of plastic in order to change the mattress from a cylindrical shape into a flat, albeit compressed, shape. Some helpful advice at this stage is to place the rolled mattress on to the designated bed frame, find the end of the outer layer plastic, pull it loose, and use the momentum of pulling it with the rolled mattress shape to remove the outer layer. After completing this process, customers will see a folded and unrolled mattress. Simply unfold the mattress, the top cover will be facing up, and place the corners in the correct position on the frame of foundation.

Next, cut the final layer of plastic and the Leesa mattress will start decompressing. Remove this final layer of plastic and the mattress should expand to its full height soon enough. With the Leesa mattress, full expansion took 48 hours.

The Leesa mattress is a combination foam mattress. By combining different foam types, densities, and firmness levels, Leesa has designed a configuration that offers good comfort, cooling, and support.

The Leesa mattress is only available in one firmness option and Leesa to have adopted the ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach often used by ‘bed-in-a-box’ companies.

Leesa Mattress Layers

The Leesa mattress contains 3 layers of foam. Like many of the combination foam mattresses on the market today, all layers in the Leesa mattress work together to provide an overall level of comfort and support.

The first layer of the Leesa mattress is perforated and is designed to provide airflow, bounce, and comfort. The Avena^® foam Leesa use in this top layer has a medium density of 3.65 lbs/ft³.

The second transitional layer of the Leesa mattress is a slower responding memory foam. This layer works with the comfort layer to provide an additional level of body contouring and pressure point relief. The second layer of memory foam in the Leesa mattress has a medium density of 3 lbs/ft³.

The final layer of foam is a support layer which gives the mattress its structure and prevents sleepers from sinking in too far. The final layer of support foam in the Leesa mattress has an average density of 1.8 lbs/ft³. Most foam mattresses have a support layer density of between 1.5 lbs/ft³ and 2 lbs/ft³.

Remember, higher-density foams, like those used in Novosbed and Tempur-Pedic, will generally have a longer life-expectancy than their lower density counterparts.

Leesa Mattress Cover

Leesa is one of the best-looking mattresses on the market. Its polyester and lycra white-on-grey cover is modern, stylish, and very soft. Despite its zipper, the topside is not machine washable. Still, this removable cover will make spot cleaning your Leesa mattress cover easier.

Consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious when making a purchase. Retailers both in and out of the mattress industry have been incorporating more eco and ethical policies when selling products and choosing suppliers. Novosbed Inc. carried out a survey in February 2017, where they discovered that almost 50% of Canadians are willing to spend more money on more environmentally-friendly products. Therefore, in every review on Mattress-Reviews.com, we will highlight each mattress company’s green philosophy, and how prominent their policies are on their websites.

Feel & Firmness

The Leesa mattress is a medium firmness mattress. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), it comes in at a 4.3 / 10 on the firmness scale. The Leesa mattress does not have excessive ‘hug’, and the Avena^® foam comfort layer gives it a degree of softness as you lie down. Its layers of supportive foam ensure there is no excessive sinkage. This is normal for a medium mattress.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation in foam mattresses is usually very good and one of the main reasons couples make the switch from innerspring to memory foam. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), minimal motion transfer was detected with the Leesa mattress, and is ranked 6.1 / 10 on the motion isolation scale.

Edge Support

Foam mattresses are not known for their edge support; in fact, it is often one of the main inquiries for mattress retailers from customers who move from innerspring mattresses to foam mattresses. That being said, According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Leesa ranks above average with 7.3 / 10 on the edge support scale .

Bounce

Due to the fact that motion isolation for foam mattresses is very high, bounce is usually very low. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Leesa mattress ranks at 3.6 / 10 on the bounce scale.

Remember, Mattress-Reviews.com is owned, operated, and paid for by Novosbed Inc. and advertises the Novosbed, Douglas and Logan & Cove mattress brands, so the following is strictly our competitive opinion:

The Leesa is an impressive memory foam mattress. From their list of athlete endorsers including Michael Phelps and Aly Raisman the Leesa certainly wants you to pay attention to them. It’s a good mattress and will definitely please those looking for a simple, 3-layer combination hybrid foam with a soft top cover.
