Note: This review focuses on the Leesa Sapira Chill medium-firm mattress, exploring its features, comfort, and performance.

Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Overview

Pros

• Versatile: It supports all types of sleepers, including back, side, and stomach sleepers, comfortably accommodating sleepers of all weights, thanks to its multiple firmness options.
• Affordable: It provides a luxurious sleep experience without breaking the bank, making it a cost-effective option for quality sleep.
• Cooling: Made with cooling gel-infused memory foam, this mattress helps prevent overheating for a comfortable night's sleep.

Cons

• Edge support: While the mattress is well-structured, edge support might be slightly weaker compared to other models due to the lack of dedicated edge coils. This isn't necessarily a major concern, as the mattress' overall comfort might outweigh this potential drawback. However, heavier sleepers, especially those on the plush version, might be more likely to notice this weakness.

Who do we recommend the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress for?

• Hot sleepers: The Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress is a cooling mattress that aids in controlling and avoiding overheating. For those who sleep overheated, this is a huge benefit since it will keep you cool and cozy all through the night.
• Couples: By isolating motion, this mattress reduces the chance you'll feel your partner's nighttime movements. Perfect for couples who want undisturbed sleep.
• Comfort enthusiasts: Those people will value the rich texture of a flowing quilt top with the addition of the cooling gel layer and its great pressure relief, making it a soft, comfortable mattress for them.
• People experiencing back and hip pain: The Leesa Sapira provides maximum support where it’s most needed by having both layers of coils and foam, providing the benefits of classic memory foam (pressure reduction, spinal alignment, and motion isolation) with the bounce and airflow of a traditional spring mattress.

Unboxing the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress

Leesa prioritizes customer comfort by delivering the Sapira Chill Mattress conveniently compressed in a box manageable for two people to carry.

Once you open the box, simply pull out the rolled mattress, place it on your bed, and carefully cut the plastic wrap. Within about an hour, the mattress will fully expand to its original size, with the corners neatly filling the edges of your bed, showcasing excellent corner expansion.

You may notice a faint odor upon unboxing, known as off-gassing. However, this harmless smell will dissipate within 24 hours with good ventilation.

Firmness, Feel, and Comfort For the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress

Firmness of the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress

Your body weight and favorite sleeping position will determine how firm your mattress should be, so it's critical to choose one that suits your needs.

You can purchase the Leesa Sapira with three different firmness levels, which are plush, medium-firm, and firm, giving you the option to see which one is suitable for your sleeping position and body weight.

The Leesa Sapira medium-firm is well cushioned and plush, making it an affordable and luxurious option, as it scored 6/10 on our firmness test, which prevents sleepers from sinking too far into the mattress, allowing them to feel aloft.

The plush mattress scored 4/10 on our firmness test, while the firm mattress scored 8/10 on our firmness test.

Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Feel

The way the Leesa Sapira helps you stay cool at night by drawing heat away is not the only good thing about it. It also has a medium-firm feel with a cool-to-the-touch cover and soft fabric, providing very good support along with a chill comfort feel, especially for back sleepers and people with back problems.

As well as the layer of memory foam that molds the mattress to the shape of your body while you sleep on it, providing good motion transfer, especially for couples. The layers of individually wrapped zoned coils give it some bounce, which makes it a responsive mattress as well.

Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress Comfort

When it comes to mattresses, side, back, and stomach sleepers all have various requirements. Most of the time, back sleepers require a medium-firm mattress to support the alignment of their spine.

On the other hand, those who sleep on their stomachs require a firm mattress to avoid pressing against their lower backs by sinking too far into it.

A softer mattress that conforms to their bodies and eases pressure spots on their shoulders and hips is necessary for side sleepers.

We did some tests on the Leesa Sapira in a range of positions while sleeping. Our partners, who sleep in different positions and have different weights, helped us test it.

We concluded that the Leesa Sapira Mattress is perfect for back sleepers the most, as it provides plenty of support for your spine along with lots of pressure relief.

Constructions, Materials, and Design

Materials and Design

The Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress is made of the finest materials, making it a luxurious option. Let’s get into the details of each layer right away. It has many cooling elements, zoned pocketed coils, and multiple layers of soft foam.

Layers

1. Ultra-Cool Cover: Air can pass through the mattress surface of the Leesa Sapira Hybrid thanks to its soft, permeable cover. Its top layer is a cool-to-the-touch cover composed of cooling fibers (73% Polyester, 25% Polyethylene, and 2% Spandex) that maintain your skin's comfortable temperature of 88 degrees
2. 1.5" High-Performance Comfort Foam: Thick, cooling gel-infused poly foam makes up the top layer of its comfort system, which is supported by a memory foam layer that can be adjusted to provide extra cushioning and support as well as increased airflow to relieve pressure points on the top of the mattress.
3. 1" Responsive High-Performance Foam: Premium foam that gives some extra pressure relief to the sleeper while also giving the mattress that bouncy sensation.
4. 1" Transition core support foam layer: This layer is made of premium foam that is intended to relieve pressure points and offer additional support.
5. 8" Individually Wrapped Spring System: This layer provides zonal support to maintain proper spinal alignment. They encourage proper airflow within the mattress and are also incredibly breathable and cooling.
6. 0.75" High-density base support foam: Base layer of foam made to support the mattress and Spring coils.

Performance of the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress

Cooling

We examine a mattress's construction to figure out whether or not it is cooling. For sufficient airflow, the Leesa Sapira Hybrid features a layer of pocketed coils. The cool-to-the-touch cover and the gel infusion in the foam provide additional temperature management.

Because it helps prevent overheating and helps you sleep more comfortably, cooling is a crucial function of mattresses. Those who live in hot areas or have a tendency to sleep overheated should pay particular attention to this.

We lay on the Leesa Sapira Chill Mattress for 20 minutes while keeping an eye on its heat retention to evaluate its cooling capabilities.

After 20 minutes, we did not feel any heat, and we certainly felt its cooling effects. We consider it one of the best cooling mattresses. Accordingly, this mattress earns a well-deserved 4.5/5 regarding cooling.

Responsiveness

Responsiveness is seeing how quickly the mattress goes back to its original shape after being used, which we also put to the test. Because they are so comfortable to move about on and switch positions on, responsive mattresses are ideal for combination sleepers as well as for sexual activities.

We put the Leesa Sapira to the responsiveness test. We test the mattress by placing a 20-pound ball on it and then taking it out. We can determine how quickly the mattress returns to its initial shape after applying pressure using this test.

After conducting this test, we discovered that it took the mattress 0.4 seconds to mostly take on its original shape. This demonstrates its excellent responsiveness.

The Leesa Sapira passed the test, giving it a 5/5 on our responsiveness test.

Motion Isolation

A mattress's ability to isolate motion is crucial since it could decrease the likelihood that your partner's motions will bother you. Motion isolation can be extremely helpful if you share a bed with someone who moves around a lot or is a light sleeper.

We tested this by setting a 20-pound ball on one side of the mattress and a glass half full of water on top of it. There was hardly any movement in the water that was in the glass as the twenty-pound ball struck the mattress. The water hardly moved at all as the mattress cushioned the ball's impact.

To find out how well the mattress would block out motion from a partner, we ran another test. One individual was made to lie on one side of the mattress, and the other was allowed to roll around on the other. The one who was motionless on the opposite side of the mattress stated that they were not aware of their partner's rolling about.

Overall, it appears that the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress has good motion isolation. Smaller motions, like turning and tossing, ought to be insignificant. When your partner climbs on and off the bed, though, you might feel the bed move a little.

We give the Leesa Sapira a 4/5 on our motion isolation test.

Edge Support

A mattress's edge support is crucial because it keeps the mattress from collapsing at the edges. This is crucial for several reasons, including durability, comfort, and safety.

For couples, heavier sleepers, those looking for a lasting mattress, and anyone who enjoys spreading out and using the entire mattress surface, a mattress with exceptional edge support is a blessing.

We put the Leesa Sapira up for two tests to see how it would do. We started by firmly pressing the edges and keeping an eye out for any counterpressure. The layers provided us with enough support and counterpressure. The edges promptly returned to their original shape after we released the pressure.

Second, we sat on the mattress's edges and kept an eye out for any sinking that might have resulted from our weight. We sank in just a little bit, but we felt supported while getting out of bed and didn't feel like we would fall off the mattress.

Sitting and lying on the edges of the Leesa Sapira didn’t cause any sinking except for some light sinkage, which makes it count as a mattress with good edge support, scoring 4/5 on our edge support test.

Noise

A quiet mattress is a light sleeper's and a couple's dream come true. The last thing you want to hear when you're trying to go to sleep is your partner tossing and turning or your mattress's springs squeaking.

We dropped a 20-pound ball on Leesa Sapira to test it for noise. We listened for any squeaks or noises using susceptible microphones, but we heard nothing. The Leesa Sapira mattress is silent.

We rated it 5/5 for noise, making it a great option for couples, light sleepers, and anyone sensitive to noise.

Sex

Although choosing a mattress for sex is a personal choice, there are four essential features to consider: loudness, bounce, cooling, and edge support.

Its good bounce helps to avoid uncomfortable sinking, and its cooling qualities are also remarkable. This means that neither of you will feel overheated or weighed down, allowing you and your companion to move freely and comfortably.

The Leesa Sapira is also noiseless and has good edge support, making it a very safe option for you and your partner.

The Leesa Sapira Chill mattress scored 4.3/5 on our sex performance test.

Pressure Relief

A well-pressured mattress can alleviate stress in delicate areas by providing a cushioned and contoured surface. A lot of people who have joint pain and sleep on their sides prefer mattresses with lots of pressure relief.

We carried out our pressure map test to evaluate the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress's ability to relieve pressure. A volunteer was asked to lie on the mattress for 20 minutes while we took pressure readings at various body pressure sites.

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

The results of the test showed that the Leesa Sapira Chill provided good pressure relief in all areas of the body. Low-pressure zones are shown as blue to green, and high-pressure zones are shown as yellow to red. We address three main types of pain: hip, shoulder, and back.

The pressure map reveals that the mattress relieves pressure on the hip area, making it an excellent option if you sleep on your side and have hip pain. However, for the best pressure reduction, you might wish to think about the Sapira Chill's plush version.

Therefore, think about your sleeping position initially. People who sleep on their sides or backs find that the medium-firm version of the Leesa Sapira Chill is quite comfortable.

In total, the Leesa Sapira Chill mattress has scored 4.7/5 in our pressure relief test.
