Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress Overview

Pros

• Multiple Firmness Options: Brooklyn Bedding usually provides the Brooklyn Spartan Hybrid mattress in various firmness choices, enabling customers to select the level of firmness that fits their preferences and sleeping habits. This personalization can guarantee a cozy and supportive sleeping surface for every person.
• Durable Construction: The Brooklyn Spartan Hybrid is renowned for its longevity due to its top-notch materials and robust build, ensuring prolonged comfort and support, making it a worthwhile investment.
• Cooling Technology: The Brooklyn Spartan Hybrid mattress includes innovative cooling elements like cooling gel-infused foam and breathable cover materials. Those who tend to feel warm at night may find these characteristics especially helpful, as they help regulate temperatures and prevent overheating while sleeping.
• Hybrid Construction: The mattress's blend of foam layers and pocketed coils creates a pleasing balance of comfort, support, and responsiveness, making it suitable for a wide range of sleepers with different needs and tastes.
• Innovative Technology: Infrared radiation (FIR) is a type of electromagnetic radiation, that penetrates the body's tissues to improve blood flow and possibly aid in muscle healing. The purpose of this technology is to improve overall sleep quality and recovery by providing sleepers with the benefits of FIR therapy while they sleep.

Cons

• Cost: Hybrid mattresses, such as the Brooklyn Spartan Hybrid, are typically more costly than mattresses made entirely of foam. Although many customers find the high-quality build and features to be worth the price, budget-conscious buyers might want to take this into account.
• Weight and Handling: Because of the coil system, hybrid mattresses tend to be heavier and more difficult to move than all-foam mattresses. Those who expect to frequently need to rotate or change their mattress might want to take this into account.

Who do we recommend the Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress for?

• Hot Sleepers: The Brooklyn Bedding Spartan mattress is designed with cutting-edge cooling technology, which includes breathable cover materials and cooling gel-infused foam layers. These characteristics help in controlling temperature and releasing heat.
• Couples: The Brooklyn Bedding Spartan mattress is an excellent choice because of its motion isolation capabilities. By minimizing motion transfer, the pocketed coil system helps with undisturbed sleep by minimizing the disruptions caused by a partner's movements during the night.
• Active people and athletes: Zoned support technology and responsive foam layers, which can help relieve muscular tension and accelerate recovery, are features of this performance-focused design.
• For all sleeping positions: The Brooklyn Bedding Spartan mattress usually comes with many firmness options, including firm, soft, and medium-firm, that fit different sleeping positions.

Unboxing the Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress

The Spartan mattress from Brooklyn Bedding came wrapped up and compressed in a package. We had two people carrying the box for their safety.

To open the box, we carefully cut along its seams with a utility knife or pair of scissors. After carefully removing the rolled-up mattress from the box, we position it in the desired location on the bed frame or foundation.

We allowed the mattress to fully expand once it was unrolled and placed. It expanded in a few minutes, and the edges also filled nicely and felt firm. This indicates great corner expansion.

Although hybrid mattresses, such as the Brooklyn Bedding Spartan, usually expand rapidly, it could take several hours for the mattress to fill up to its full dimensions.

After unpacking, we could detect a subtle smell that is called off-gassing. However, with proper ventilation, this harmless odor will disappear within 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 Spartan Mattress

Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress Firmness

The way a mattress feels when initially laid on it, known as its firmness level, is crucial when buying a new mattress. Remember that feelings are subjective and can vary based on body type and sleeping position. The Brooklyn Spartan mattress typically falls in the medium range, scoring around 4 to 6 on the firmness scale out of 10.

The Brooklyn Mattress offers a balanced mix of cushioning and support suitable for different sleep positions, like combination, back, and side sleepers, as well as those seeking a soft yet firm surface. The medium choice offers a balance that many sleepers find comfortable, whether you require enough support to relieve back problems or prefer a little harder feel.

Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress Feel

Your body may feel as if it is gently sinking into the top comfort layers of the Brooklyn Spartan mattress when you first lie down. You'll start to feel the pocketed coils and foam layers providing support as you become acquainted with the mattress.

Due to the ample ventilation that the breathable foam layers and airflow through the pocketed coils provide, you will stay cool and comfortable all night.

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress's motion-isolation features will come in handy if you share a bed with a partner. Because of the combination of the foam layers and pocketed coils, motion transfer is reduced, reducing the likelihood that your partner's movements would wake you up at night.

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress offers a unique and comfortable sleeping experience, particularly for people who like a medium feel with responsive back support.

Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress Comfort

We asked our reviewers to try out the Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress to see how comfortable it would be. We received a wide range of opinions from our reviewers, as they varied in terms of weight and sleeping habits.

We found that the Brooklyn Spartan Mattress is perfect for light-weight and average-weight side and back sleepers in terms of firmness and providing enough support along with spinal alignment for pressure relief. For heavy-weight and stomach sleepers, they’d need a firmer mattress to provide more support.

Since the Brooklyn comes in different versions (soft, medium-firm, and firm), there is an option for every sleeping position. However, today we're testing the medium-firm version of the mattress.

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

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress provides a comfortable and supportive surface for peaceful sleep since it is made with high-quality materials and a careful design.

Layers

1. Smart Fabric Performance Cover: To improve comfort and airflow, the top layer of a Brooklyn Spartan mattress usually consists of a soft, breathable cover fabric. This covers materials that can cool down, which helps to control temperature and create a more comfortable sleeping environment.
2. 1"5 Energex Cooling Foam: The unique Copper-Gel EnergexTM Cooling Foam is the first layer beneath the cover. As a comfort layer, this 1.5-inch proprietary foam is a great substitute for latex foam. This layer seems bouncy instead of sinking because of its excellent pressure response. Additionally, the copper-gel element functions as a cooling topping.
3. 2-inch TitanFlex Foam: Better for both enhanced comfort and support, the 2-inch Hyper-Elastic TitanFlex Foam is the next layer. It has excellent bounce and rapid pressure response as well.
4. 1" Gel Memory Foam: Visco-elastic gel memory foam makes up the third layer. Memory foam mattresses are renowned for enabling your body to sink into them, providing comfort. To minimize motion transfer from the coils, it is also purposefully positioned near the center. Additionally, by placing the memory foam strategically, overheating or warming is avoided.
5. 8" Quantum Edge Pocketed Coils: The 8-inch Quantum Edge pocketed coils are located beneath the three layers of foam. Most people like the bounce that the coils give the mattress. Unlike traditional innerspring beds, each coil is separately covered with fabric, which greatly improves motion isolation.
6. 1" Support Foam: The Spartan's bottom is filled with this dense poly foam. This layer serves as the mattress's base, carrying and supporting the innerspring coils, as its name suggests.

Performance of Brooklyn Bedding Spartan Mattress

Cooling

Cooling technology is incorporated into the Brooklyn Spartan mattress design to assist in controlling temperature and offer a cooler sleeping surface. Because it prevents overheating and promotes more pleasant sleep, mattress cooling is crucial. Those who live in hot areas and those who have a tendency to sleep overheated should pay particular attention to this.

Brooklyn Bedding uses CopperFlex foam, which is gel-infused and contains TitanCool phase change technology, to assist in dissipating heat and regulating temperature by collecting excess body heat and releasing it away from the body. This foam will keep you cool all night. This can encourage a cooler sleeping environment and help avoid overheating.

Our reviewers took a 20-minute nap on the Brooklyn Spartan mattress to evaluate its cooling properties. We took a temperature reading on the mattress and discovered absolutely no visible buildup of heat. Additionally, the reviewers said they felt cool and at ease the entire time they slept.

We gave the cooling performance of the mattress a 4.8/5.

Responsiveness

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress is made to swiftly adjust to changes in position and to respond to the movements of your body, giving you a comfortable sleeping surface. This responsiveness has the potential to improve overall comfort and support during the night, lessen pressure spots, and encourage healthy spinal alignment.

The time it takes for a mattress to regain its original shape after use is how we evaluate responsiveness. Because they're so comfy to move about on and switch positions on, responsive mattresses are perfect for both combination sleepers and sexual activities.

We put the Brooklyn Spartan's response to the test. To test the mattress, we placed a 20-pound ball on it and then took it off. We can determine how quickly the mattress returns to its normal shape after being pressed down with this test. The mattress responded in 0.7 seconds, indicating excellent responsiveness.

The Brooklyn Spartan has scored 4.7/5 on our responsiveness test.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation is crucial since it reduces and absorbs motion transfer over the mattress's surface, making it an excellent choice for couples who don't want to be disturbed in the middle of the night by their partner's tossing and turning.

We put a 20-pound ball on one side of the mattress and topped it with a glass half full of water to test this. There was hardly any movement in the water within the glass when the twenty-pound ball struck the mattress. The majority of the ball's impact was absorbed by the mattress.

To find out how well the mattress would keep out motion from a partner, we ran one more test. One was made to sleep on one side of the mattress while the other was allowed to roll about on the other. The person who stayed still across the mattress said they almost didn’t feel the other person moving, which indicates good motion isolation.

The Brooklyn Spartan Mattress has scored 4.5/5 on our motion isolation test.

Edge Support

The edge support affects how secure you'll feel sitting on the side of your bed. This is especially important for couples who often use the entire surface area of their bed. This is crucial for a variety of reasons, including comfort, durability, and safety.

A well-supported edge mattress is a godsend for heavier sleepers, couples, those looking for a durable mattress, and anyone who enjoys spreading out and using the whole surface area of the mattress.

We put the Brooklyn Spartan through two tests to evaluate how it would function. Initially, we firmly applied pressure to the edges while keeping an eye out for any opposition. When we relieved the pressure, the mattress regained its natural shape and offered excellent support.

Second, we sat on the mattress's edges, keeping an eye out for any sinking caused by our combined weight. Because of the reinforced perimeter of the mattress, which is intended to offer more support and stability along the edges of the mattress, we didn't experience any sinkage.

The mattress scored a solid 4.5/5 on our edge support test.

Noise

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress is made to reduce disturbance and noise while in use. Like any mattress, though, noise levels can vary depending on several factors, including the construction, materials used, and the sensitivity of the sleeper to sound.

Generally speaking, pocketed coil mattresses—like the Brooklyn Spartan—make less noise than standard innerspring beds. This is because the separate wrapping of each coil helps to isolate movement and lessens the possibility of creaking or squeaking noises.

The Brooklyn Spartan mattress's foam comfort layers also aid in reducing noise and vibrations, which enhances the peaceful sleeping atmosphere.

To check for noise, we set a 20-pound ball on top of the Brooklyn Spartan. Using sensitive microphones, we listened for any squeaks or other noises, but we heard none. There's hardly any noise from the mattress.

Thus, in our noise test, the Brooklyn Spartan Mattress received a score of 4.7/5.

Sex

It's crucial to remember that every person has different tastes and backgrounds, so what suits one pair might not suit another. A mattress's ability to facilitate sexual activity can be affected by various factors, including body weight, favored positions, and individual sensitivity. Because of this, it's crucial to take your requirements and tastes into account when choosing a mattress for special occasions.

An important aspect of the whole sexual experience is the comfort and support that the Brooklyn Spartan mattress offers. Intimate times can benefit from the Brooklyn Spartan mattress's design, which reduces noise and disruptions while in use.

Its cooling properties aid in controlling temperature and removing extra heat. The Brooklyn Spartan mattress's edge support is frequently strengthened to offer stability and stop excessive sagging around the outside. Because it permits the complete use of the mattress surface, including the edges, without feeling unsteady or unsafe, this might be advantageous during intimate moments.

Our sex performance test gave the Brooklyn Spartan mattress a score of 4.7/5.

Pressure Relief

A key component of the Brooklyn Spartan mattress's design is its pressure-relieving capacity, which aims to provide comfort and support for a comfortable and peaceful night's sleep. We used our pressure map method to test the mattress's capacity to release pressure. For twenty minutes, we had our reviewer lie on the mattress while we took pressure readings at various body locations.

The pressure map below shows the results of the pressure relief test.

Low-pressure zones will be displayed on the map as blue to green, and high-pressure zones as yellow to red.

You can see that the entire map is blue, which indicates that the weight was spread equally and that no pressure points developed. This makes it ideal for back and side sleepers.

Stomach sleepers who suffer from back pain should instead choose a firm mattress. To keep their hips from sinking and aggravating their back discomfort, these sleepers require a sturdy bed below them.

This bed should be comfortable for those who have shoulder problems, but if you're heavy and worried about excessive pressure buildup, it's recommended to purchase the soft version.

The Brooklyn Spartan has scored 4.5/5 on our pressure relief test.
