Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Mattress Review

Brooklyn Bedding was founded in 1995 by brothers John and Rob Merwin, who managed the US-based business. Brooklyn Bedding, a well-known business that sells mattresses and bedding for various sleeper types, is recognized for its innovative designs and high-quality materials.

The Aurora Luxe is a supportive sleep surface with cutting-edge cooling capabilities and is made of velvety foam materials that conform to the body curves and relieve pressure. Sleepers can choose their desired firmness level from a range of options to match their preferences and sleep style.

In this review, we will focus on the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe, specifically regarding:

• Pros and cons.
• Unboxing experience.
• Feel and comfort.
• Construction and design.
• Performance test results.
• Warranty policies, company policies, and all the FAQs you might want to know.

Note: In this article, we will be reviewing the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress, a medium option known for being a comfortable firmness level for a wide range of sleepers.

Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Overview

Pros

• Multiple Firmness Options: Brooklyn Bedding normally provides consumers with the Aurora Luxe mattress in several firmness options, enabling them to select the level of firmness that best fits their sleeping and comfort preferences. This personalization can guarantee a better fit for each person's demands and increase overall happiness.
• Advanced Cooling Technology: The Aurora Luxe mattress uses advanced cooling technologies to help with temperature regulation and heat dissipation. These technologies include phase-changing materials, copper-infused foam, and breathable cover fabrics.
• Edge Support: The Aurora Luxe mattress provides enhanced edge support for stability and prevents excessive compression around the edges. In addition to increasing the mattress's usable sleeping area, this keeps the surface feeling the same.
• Hybrid Construction: The mattress's combination of pocketed coils and foam layers generates a gratifying balance of responsiveness, comfort, and support, making it ideal for a wide range of sleepers with different needs and preferences.
• Durable Design: Because of its premium construction and materials, the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe has a durable design. Its specially crafted foams and individually encased coils combine to offer comfort and support for an extended period.

Cons

• Weight: When comparing all foam mattresses to mattresses such as the Aurora Luxe, it's worth noting that the latter may be heavier and more challenging to transport. This is a consideration for individuals who regularly need to move or lift their mattresses.
• Motion Transfer: Despite its technology, the Aurora Luxe mattress can still exhibit some motion transfer due to its hybrid design. However, it is not to the extent that you wake up from your sleep.

Who do we recommend the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe for?

• Hot Sleepers: The advanced cooling technology in the Aurora Luxe mattress can help control temperature and create a cooler sleeping environment, improving overall comfort if you tend to sleep hot or experience night sweats.
• Those Seeking Luxurious Comfort: The Aurora Luxe mattress can offer a cozy and supportive sleeping surface if you're looking for a posh sleeping experience with plush comfort layers that hug your body's curves.
• Couples: The Aurora Luxe mattress's reinforced edge support maximizes the quantity of usable sleep surface and offers a consistent feel from edge to edge. For couples who need lots of room to stretch out or make use of the whole mattress, this can be helpful.
• Back Pain Sufferers: While firmness preferences vary, some back pain sufferers may find that the Aurora Luxe mattress's plush comfort layers and zoned support technology help to relieve pressure points and encourage healthy spinal alignment.

Unboxing the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe

We received the Aurora Luxe mattress compressed in a box and rolled. The box was a little heavy to carry, so we had two people carry it. First, we started by using scissors to carefully cut off the packaging, and then we let the mattress expand to its original size, which took about 24-48 hours for the mattress to fully decompress and reach its intended firmness level.

The edges also expanded nicely along the mattress, feeling firm and wrinkle-free. This indicates the mattress's excellent ability for corner expansion.

We did experience some off-gassing, which is normal for a new mattress. With good ventilation and opening the windows to allow the sun inside, the smell went away in less than 24 hours.

Overall, we found the unboxing process for the Brooklyn mattress to be relatively easy and safe.

Firmness, Feel, and Comfort For Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe

Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Firmness

When purchasing a new mattress, it is important to consider the firmness level of the mattress and the way it feels when you first lay on it. Remember that comfort differs from one person to another and can change depending on your body type and sleeping position. The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress usually receives a score of 5 out of 10 on the firmness scale, placing it in the medium category.

For those looking for a soft yet firm surface and for those who sleep in a variety of positions, including side, back, and combination sleepers, the Brooklyn Mattress provides a well-balanced combination of cushioning and support.

Whether you need enough support to ease back pain or prefer a slightly harder feel, the medium option offers a balance that many sleepers find comfortable.

Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Feel

When you initially lie down on the Brooklyn Aurora luxe mattress, your body might feel as though it is slowly sinking into the top comfort layers.

As you get to know the mattress, you'll begin to feel the support that the pocketed coils and foam layers provide. The breathable foam layers and airflow through the pocketed coils provide enough ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable throughout the entire night.

It's especially good for side sleepers or people who want a softer feel because the comfort layers relieve pressure and help ease discomfort in places like the shoulders and hips.

A unique and cozy sleeping experience can be enjoyed with the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress, especially if you prefer a medium-firm feel with responsive back support. The mattress contours your body, relieving pressure points and offering comfort, particularly in the hips and shoulders.

Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Comfort

To find out how comfortable the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Mattress would be, we asked our reviewers to give it a try.

Our reviewers varied greatly in terms of their weight and sleeping patterns, so we expected a wide range of opinions from them. The needs of side, back, and stomach sleepers vary when it comes to mattresses.

We found that the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Mattress is perfect for side sleepers and good for light back sleepers.

For average to heavy-back sleepers, a medium-firm mattress is usually necessary to preserve proper spinal alignment. Stomach sleepers require a firm mattress to prevent them from sinking too far into it and putting undue strain on their lower backs.

There is a Brooklyn version for every sleeping position because it is available in three different versions: soft, medium-firm, and firm. So, you are guaranteed to find comfort, no matter what your weight or sleeping style is.

We will conduct further tests to assess the mattress's ability to relieve pressure points later in our review.

Constructions, Materials, and Design

Materials and Design

Because the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress is constructed with premium materials and thoughtful design, it offers a cozy and supportive surface for restful sleep.

The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress is often constructed with a mix of comfort layers, transitional layers, and a supportive coil system to offer a sleep surface that is both comfortable and supportive.

The materials and design elements have been carefully selected to support optimal spinal alignment, relieve pressure, and regulate temperature to ensure a good night's sleep.

Layers

1. GlacioTexTM Cooling Cover: A unique phase-change material was used to make the cover. This silky material disperses body heat and feels cool to the touch.
2. 1.5” CopperFlexTM: A comfort layer with phase-change material infused for ideal thermal regulation and antimicrobial foam (CopperFlexTM foam with TitanCoolTM). Brooklyn Bedding's exclusive CopperFlexTM latex substitute foam is made to be incredibly responsive and mold to the contours of the sleeper.
3. 2” Medium Supreme Response Comfort Foam: Foam with a hyperelastic layer. In addition to providing some extra cushioning near your pressure points, this foam is incredibly responsive. It is highly durable and shouldn't cause any issues for combination sleepers because it reacts fast to your movements, conforming to your preferred sleeping position and adding bounce.
4. 1” Gel Swirl Memory Foam: Viscoelastic memory foam made of gel. It will gently lower you onto the bed's pocketed coil section. provides cooling gel infusion for ideal temperature regulation and enhances the motion isolation of the mattress. It also provides instantaneous responsiveness to your every move. The gel is added to the foam to provide additional cooling. It guarantees more relief from pressure points.
5. 8” Zoned-Coil Core: Consists of a maximum of 1,032 encased coils to provide outstanding motion isolation, stability, support, durability, and edge reinforcement. Additionally, the coils reduce partner disturbance by aiding in motion isolation and responsiveness.
6. 75” Base Foam: The premium coil core is strengthened by a high-density flex foam base, which also adds longevity and durability. As the sleeper's weight is distributed across the mattress, the base of the bed becomes more stable.

Performance of Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe

Cooling

The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress features cooling technology to help regulate temperature and provide a cooler sleeping surface. Mattress cooling is essential because it keeps the mattress from overheating and encourages more comfortable sleep. People who tend to sleep too much or who live in hot climates should be especially mindful of this.

Phase-change materials are used in the construction of the Aurora Luxe mattress. Because PCM is designed to absorb and release heat in response to temperature changes, it can help control room temperature and preserve a comfortable sleeping environment all night.

Generally, Brooklyn Bedding's CopperFlex gel-infused foam with phase change technology helps to dissipate heat and regulate temperature. You'll stay cool all night with this foam. This can help prevent overheating by promoting a colder sleeping environment.

To assess the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress's cooling capabilities, our reviewer dozed off for twenty minutes. We measured the mattress's temperature and found that there was not any noticeable heat accumulation. The tester also reported feeling calm and relaxed the entire time they slept.

The Aurora Luxe got a 5/5 on our cooling test.

Responsiveness

The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress provides you with a comfortable sleeping surface by quickly adjusting to changes in position and responding to your body's movements. This responsiveness may reduce pressure points, promote healthy spinal alignment, and enhance overall nighttime comfort and support.

We measure responsiveness as the amount of time it takes a mattress to return to its pre-used shape. Responsive mattresses are ideal for combination sleepers as well as sexual activities because they are very comfortable to move around on and change positions on.

We tested the response from the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe. We put a 20-pound ball on the mattress and then removed it to test it. With this test, we can find out how quickly the mattress regains its original shape after being compressed. With a response time of 0.8 seconds, the mattress demonstrated good responsiveness.

Our responsiveness test resulted in a score of 4.5 out of 5 for the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation is an important feature of mattresses because it minimizes and absorbs motion transfer across the surface of the mattress. This feature makes them a great option for couples who don't want to wake up in the middle of the night to their partner's tossing and turning.

To test this, we placed a 20-pound ball on one side of the mattress and covered it with a half-full glass of water. When the twenty-pound ball hit the mattress, there was almost no movement in the water inside the glass. The mattress took up most of the impact from the ball.

We conducted one more test to see how well the mattress would block motion from a partner. On one side of the mattress, one person had to sleep, and the other was free to move around on the other.

Good motion isolation is indicated by the fact that the person occupying the still position across the mattress reported that they hardly felt the other person moving.

In our motion isolation test, the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe Mattress received a score of 4/5.

Edge Support

How secure you feel when sitting on the side of your bed depends on the edge support. For couples who frequently use the entire surface area of their bed, this is especially crucial. This is important for several reasons, such as comfort, longevity, and security.

For heavier sleepers, couples, those seeking a long-lasting mattress, and anyone who relishes extending out and making use of the entire surface area of the mattress, a well-supported edge mattress is a blessing.

We tested the Brooklyn Aurora Luxe in two ways to see how it would perform. We started by applying pressure firmly to the edges and watching for any resistance. The mattress provided excellent support and returned to its original shape when we released the pressure.

Second, we sat on the edges of the mattress, watching for any sinking brought on by our combined weight. We didn't experience any sinking because of the strong coils of the mattress, which are meant to provide more support and stability along the edges of the mattress.

In our test for edge support, the mattress received a solid 4.5/5.

Noise

When in use, the Brooklyn Aurora mattress is designed to produce less noise and disturbance. However, just like with any mattress, noise levels can differ based on several variables, such as the design, the materials utilized, and the sleeper's sensitivity to sound.

In general, pocketed coil mattresses—such as the Brooklyn Aurora—make less noise than innerspring mattresses. This is so that movement can be isolated and the likelihood of creaking or squeaking noises is reduced due to the individual wrapping of each coil.

The foam comfort layers of the Brooklyn Aurora mattress also help to dampen noise and vibrations, which improves the tranquil sleeping environment. We placed a 20-pound ball atop the Brooklyn Aurora to listen for noise. We listened for any squeaks or other noises using sensitive microphones, but we couldn't hear any. The Brooklyn Aurora didn’t make any noise.

This gives the Aurora Mattress a 5/5 on our noise test.

Sex

It's important to keep in mind that each person has unique preferences and life experiences, so what works for one couple might not work for another. The degree to which a mattress can support sexual activity depends on several variables, such as body weight, preferred positions, and personal sensitivity. That's why it's so important to consider your needs and preferences when selecting a mattress for special events.

The comfort and support that the Brooklyn mattress provides is a significant component of the entire sexual experience. The Brooklyn mattress's design, which lessens noise and interruptions while in use, can be advantageous during intimate moments. Its cooling qualities help regulate temperatures and eliminate surplus heat.

The edge support of the Brooklyn Aurora mattress is often reinforced to provide stability and prevent excessive sagging around the edges. This may be useful for intimate moments, as it allows you to use the entire surface of the mattress, including the edges, without feeling unstable or unsafe.

The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe mattress received a score of 4.6/5 on our sex performance test.

Pressure Relief

The pressure-relieving ability of the Brooklyn Aurora mattress is a crucial aspect of its design, as it strives to offer comfort and support for a restful and comfortable sleep. We tested the mattress's ability to release pressure using our pressure map method. Our reviewer was made to lie on the mattress for twenty minutes while we measured pressure at different points on their body.

The pressure relief test results are displayed in the pressure map below.

On the map, high-pressure zones will be shown as yellow to red and low-pressure zones as blue to green.

It's a good thing that the map is essentially all blue overall. I believe that to maintain their spine alignment, stomach sleepers who experience back pain will require a firmer bed than the Aurora Luxe Medium model.

However, most side-sleepers should be content here.

Your Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe mattress's comfort level can be greatly increased by adding a cloud pillow top, especially if you sleep on your side. The cloud pillow top's plush cushioning offers an additional layer of softness and support, as well as ensuring that your body is properly supported while reducing pressure points.

For back sleepers with back pain, the Aurora Luxe is a great option because they require a medium-firm bed to fully benefit from the mattress’s pressure relief.

The Brooklyn Aurora has scored 4.6/5 on our pressure relief test.
