DreamCloud Premier Mattress Video Review
The DreamCloud Premier is a medium-firm hybrid mattress that offers great pressure relief and maintains spinal alignment. Mattress expert Loren stepped into the Nerd lab to give it a full shakedown. Check out her full review here!
DreamCloud Premier Mattress Firmness and Feel?
DreamCloud Premier Mattress Firmness
Here at Mattress Nerd, we rate mattresses on a firmness scale from 1–10, with 1 being super soft and 10 being very firm. We rated the DreamCloud Premier at 6.5/10 for firmness, which makes it a medium-firm mattress.
Medium-firm is a popular mattress firmness because it’s close to a universal comfort level and is comfortable for many sleeping positions. However, if you’re a lightweight or heavyweight sleeper, the mattress might feel firmer or softer, respectively.
What Does the DreamCloud Premier Mattress Feel Like?
While the plush euro top gives the DreamCloud Premier a cushy feel, the foam and coils bounce back and prevent you from sinking very deep into the mattress. I’d describe it as a balance between supportive and cloud-like.
Support & Pressure Relief by Sleeping Position
| Body Type | Back Sleepers | Stomach Sleepers | Side Sleepers |
| Lightweight (< 130 lbs) | 5 | 5 | 3 |
| Average weight (130–230 lbs) | 5 | 5 | 5 |
| Heavyweight (> 230 lbs) | 4 | 3 | 5 |
1 = Very poor 2 = Not good 3 = Fair 4 = Good 5 = Excellent
Back Sleepers
If you sleep primarily on your back, you’ll want a mattress that supports you and keeps your spine aligned in a natural S curve. Fortunately, back sleepers are pretty easy to please, and a medium-firm mattress like the DreamCloud Premier is a good fit, especially for lightweight to average-weight folks.
Some heavyweight back sleepers might want a slightly firmer mattress, since heavier people typically sink into their mattress more deeply. If you’re looking for more options, check out our best mattresses for back sleepers.
Side Sleepers
Side sleepers need a mattress that contours to their body, provides pressure relief, and maintains spinal alignment. The DreamCloud Premier did a good job of distributing pressure evenly in our tests. We attribute this to the soft, contouring layers on top and the supportive coil layer below. We also saw great spinal alignment in our testing.
Specifically, average-weight to heavyweight side sleepers will find good pressure relief and alignment on this bed. Lightweight side sleepers might need a softer mattress that will allow them to sink in a little more to the comfort layers. For more options, see our best mattresses for side sleepers.
Stomach Sleepers
If your primary sleeping position is on your stomach, you’ll want a bed that’s firm and supportive enough to keep your hips elevated while you sleep. This is important because if your hips sink low, your spine won’t be aligned, which can lead to lower back pain.
The DreamCloud Premier is a supportive bed, but it’s probably too soft for heavyweight stomach sleepers, who will sink into the mattress more deeply. Lightweight to average-weight stomach sleepers should get enough support from the DreamCloud Premier to maintain their spinal alignment. For more options, see our best mattresses for stomach sleepers.
Combination Sleepers
If tossing and turning all night is your normal routine, you’re probably a combination sleeper. That means you rotate through two or all three positions while you sleep, so what’s most important for you is responsiveness. A responsive mattress will be easy to move around on.
For lightweight to average-weight combination sleepers, the DreamCloud has an adequate level of responsiveness, but heavyweight combination sleepers who sink in more deeply might find themselves getting stuck as they try to switch between positions. For more options, see our best mattresses for combination sleepers.
DreamCloud Premier Mattress Performance
Is the DreamCloud Premier Mattress Cooling?
The DreamCloud Premier doesn’t have any features specifically targeting cooling, but it is a hybrid mattress, and hybrid mattresses tend to sleep much cooler than all-foam beds. Coils allow for more airflow than foam, making the bed more breathable and less hot.
If you’re a super hot sleeper, you might want to consider a mattress targeted at cooling. But for the average sleeper, the DreamCloud Premier should keep you cool at night. To see more options for hot sleepers, check out our best cooling mattresses.
Edge Support
Another important kind of support in a mattress is edge support, which is basically how the perimeter of the mattress bears weight. If the mattress slouches deeply when you sit on the edge and you feel like you’re about to slip off, that’s bad edge support. Having good edge support will make it easier to sleep all the way to the edge of your bed.
The DreamCloud Premier has very solid edge support. The perimeter of the bed is sturdy and easy to sit or sleep on without falling off, which is helpful if you share a bed with a partner.
Responsiveness
The DreamCloud Premier has average responsiveness, which measures how easy it is to move around on the mattress surface. Responsiveness is important for combination sleepers because it’s a key factor in how quickly a mattress adapts to changes in your sleeping position.
Motion Isolation: Is it good for those who share a bed?
Motion isolation refers to how well a mattress prevents the transfer of motion across a bed. A mattress with perfect motion isolation would mean that you wouldn’t feel a thing when your sleeping partner gets in and out of bed.
The DreamCloud Premier has fairly average motion isolation—nothing special, but suitable for average couples. We even included it in our best mattresses for couples roundup since it has a combination of features that make it a fit for those who share their bed.
Noise
We didn’t notice any noise coming from the DreamCloud Premier. It stayed quiet even as we moved around on the mattress surface.
Pain Relief
Mattress support is important in order to maintain spinal alignment, which can prevent or relieve back pain. How supportive a mattress is differs depending on your primary sleeping position, and size. We think the DreamCloud is supportive enough for back sleepers of all body types, stomach sleepers under 230 lbs, and side sleepers.
Those with joint pain should experience good pressure relief around their shoulders and hips, though there are better options in our best mattresses for arthritis roundup.
Sex
The DreamCloud Premier is a good mattress for sex: it’s breathable, springy, and easy to move around on.
Off-Gassing
Mattresses with foam layers always have the potential for off-gassing, which is industry jargon for that “new mattress” smell. It’s similar to they way a new car smells. The odor is non-toxic and temporary, but may cause discomfort for those with severe respiratory issues.
We did notice a significant off-gassing smell, which is normal for bed-in-a-box mattresses, but can be unpleasant. The smell will dissipate over time, and we recommend letting your mattress air out in a ventilated room for a few days before putting on your sheets.
Durability
With a base of steel coils, the DreamCloud Premier should last you at least eight or nine years. The only watch-out is for body impressions in the foam comfort layers. It’s normal to see these for the first few minutes after rolling out of bed, but if you notice deep indentations that stick around, you may qualify for a warranty claim.
DreamCloud Premier Mattress Construction
The DreamCloud Premier is a luxury hybrid mattress, constructed with both foam and innerspring coils. It also features a euro top, which makes the top of the mattress softer, while still providing support from the coils. All of the foams used in the DreamCloud Premier are CertiPUR-US certified to meet standards for content, emissions, and durability.
Layer #1—Luxury Cashmere Blend Cover: The cover of the DreamCloud Premier is quilted with a Mongolian cashmere blend that makes the mattress surface soft and luxurious.
Layer #2—Euro Top: This euro pillow top layer is made with 1” of high-loft memory foam and 1″ of soft foam.
Layer #3—Memory Foam Comfort Layer: This comfort layer is made of 2.5” of contouring memory foam to prevent pressure build up in sensitive joints.
Layer #4—Foam Support Layer: Another 1” of supportive foam serves as a transition between the foam layers and the coils.
Layer #5—Targeted Support Coil Layer: This layer is 8.5” of individually wrapped coils, which provide support and flex individually, so they’re more contouring and motion isolating than traditional interlocked coils.
Layer #6—Foam Support Layer: 1″ of support foam gives the mattress stability and helps to reduce motion transfer.
How Much Does the DreamCloud Premier Mattress Cost?
| Mattress Size | Price | Dimensions | Height | Weight |
| Twin | $1,473 | 38” x 75” | 14” | 66 lbs |
| Twin XL | $1,673 | 38” x 80” | 14” | 72 lbs |
| Full | $1,998 | 54” x 75” | 14” | 90 lbs |
| Queen | $2,098 | 60” x 80” | 14” | 106 lbs |
| King | $2,398 | 76” x 80” | 14” | 134 lbs |
| California King | $2,398 | 72” x 84” | 14” | 131 lbs |

How Do the Policies Measure Up?
Shipping & Unboxing
DreamCloud ships for free within the contiguous U.S. If you live in Hawaii or Alaska, there will be an additional $150 shipping charge. Their mattresses typically ship within seven to 14 days from a distribution center in the U.S.
If you’d rather not deal with setting up your mattress, DreamCloud does offer a white glove delivery service for an additional $149. Included in that service is a delivery team to set up your new mattress and remove your old one.
If you opt to set up your own mattress, it’s a pretty simple process. The DreamCloud Premier ships compressed and rolled in a box. Once you open the box, pull out the mattress, unroll it on your bed frame, and cut open the plastic to let the mattress inflate. It took our team only a minute and 30 seconds to set up our DreamCloud Premier.
Warranty
Most mattress brands offer a warranty that covers repairs or a replacement mattress if the original develops defects. DreamCloud offers a Lifetime warranty on all their mattresses, which is significantly longer than the industry standard of 10 years.
So what does the Lifetime warranty cover? As long as the mattress remains in the ownership of the original purchaser, DreamCloud will repair or replace your mattress at any time if there’s damage from to normal use.
Be sure to keep your mattress on a supportive base and pay attention to the fine print so that you won’t void the warranty, and your mattress will be covered in the event of any issues.
Trial Period & Returns
If you bought your last mattress in a brick-and-mortar store, you probably remember lying on different mattresses and rolling around, trying to get a feel for them. But of course, when you buy a mattress online, you can’t exactly test it before buying. That’s why most online mattress brands offer a sleep trial period.
DreamCloud offers a 365-night sleep trial period, which means that you get to test out your mattress at home by actually sleeping on it for a full year. If you decide you don’t want to keep your DreamCloud Premier during that time period, you can return it for free. If you decide to return, contact DreamCloud and they’ll refund your purchase, as well as coordinate to have your mattress removed.
Worth noting is that DreamCloud asks customers to sleep on the mattress for at least 30 days before returning, because it can take about that long to truly adjust to a new mattress.
Addressing DreamCloud Mattress Complaints
Too Soft
The most common complaint about the DreamCloud Premier is that it’s too soft. One reviewer called it “fluff on fluff.” It’s true that the Premier has 5.5″ of foam on top, but it’s fairly dense memory foam. We gave the Premier a 6.5/10 firmness rating, which is on the firmer end of the spectrum.
With that said, if you have a heavier body type, you’re more likely to sink deep into the foam layers, which can cause the mattress to feel softer. Keep that in mind when choosing your next mattress, and remember that you can return the DreamCloud during the trial period.
Too Firm
Ironically, the second most common complaint about the DreamCloud Premier is that it’s too firm. We agree that the Premier is firmer than average, but it should provide enough pressure relief for those with average-weight or heavyweight body types. If it turns out to be too firm for comfort, you can return it for a full refund.
Comparing Different DreamCloud Mattresses

| Dreamcloud Premier is best for: | DreamCloud is best for: |
| Back sleepers | Combination sleepers |
| Side sleepers | Hot sleepers |
| Luxury shoppers | Couples |
The original DreamCloud is the flagship mattress in the DreamCloud collection. It’s pretty similar in construction to the DreamCloud Premier, but doesn’t have the euro top. Both mattresses are medium-firm, so they’ll have similar performance for each sleeping style.
If you want a little extra depth and density, the DreamCloud Premier has the euro top and an extra layer of foam. If you want to save a little money, go with the original DreamCloud.

The DreamCloud Premier Rest is the most expensive mattress from the DreamCloud brand. It’s much softer than the other two beds from DreamCloud, so it’s not the best for heavy people, but should work really well for lightweight and average-weight side sleepers.
The DreamCloud Premier Rest features a pillow top instead of a euro top and has additional layers of memory foam that make it a bit taller than the DreamCloud Premier.

The Casper Hybrid is the same as the original all-foam Casper mattress, but it has a base layer of coils instead of foam. It’s a little softer than the DreamCloud Premier, at 5.5/10 on the firmness scale. The foam in the Casper Hybrid is divided into three ergonomic zones, so it’s softer near the shoulders and legs.
The Casper Hybrid is a bit more breathable and cooling than the DreamCloud Premier, as well as more budget-friendly. However, Casper only offers a 100-night trial and 10-year warranty, which are considerably shorter than DreamCloud’s 365-night trial and Lifetime warranty.

The Saatva Classic is a luxury hybrid mattress that’s available in three different firmnesses: Plush Soft, Luxury Firm, and Firm. The Luxury Firm Saatva is the most similar to the DreamCloud Premier.
Like the Premier, the Saatva has average motion isolation, but the Premier offers better pressure relief. Saatva Classic is really strong in temperature regulation, responsiveness, durability, and edge support. This bed seriously has some of the best edge support we’ve ever seen.

The Nectar Premier is a memory foam mattress, so it differs significantly in construction compared to the DreamCloud Premier. The Nectar Premier uses gel memory foam and a cool-to-the-touch cover to try to counteract the heat-trapping effect of memory foam, but the DreamCloud Premier will still likely be a better fit for hot sleepers.
As an all-foam bed, the Nectar Premier isolates motion far better than the DreamCloud Premier. Additionally, it has really solid edge support for a foam bed. Pricewise, the Nectar is a much more wallet-friendly mattress than the DreamCloud.

DreamCloud Premier FAQs
Are DreamCloud mattresses good?
This depends on your needs and preferences, but if you’re looking for a hybrid mattress with some luxury features like a euro top, cashmere cover, and a higher loft, any of the DreamCloud mattresses—the DreamCloud, DreamCloud Premier, or DreamCloud Premier Rest—could be a great fit for you.
Can the DreamCloud Premier support heavier people?
Yes! At 14″ tall with a medium-firm feel, the DreamCloud Premier has enough depth and firmness to support those with body types over 230 lbs. We recommend it to heavyweight back sleepers and side sleepers, but stomach sleepers with bigger bodies will need an even firmer mattress for adequate support.
Is the DreamCloud Premier Rest better than DreamCloud Premier?
The DreamCloud Premier Rest is more expensive than the DreamCloud Premier, but that doesn’t necessarily make it better for you. The Premier Rest is quite a bit softer than the Premier, so it works better for lightweight side sleepers, but it’s not a good fit for most stomach sleepers.
What’s the Bottom Line?
The DreamCloud Premier is a luxury hybrid mattress that delivers excellent edge support, pressure relief, and durability. Being a medium-firm bed, it should be comfortable for the majority of sleepers, but some might need a firmer or softer mattress if they’re on the lighter or heavier side. It’s not the best fit for couples or hot sleepers, but it’s also not the worst.
The euro top, cashmere cover, and high profile all give the DreamCloud Premier a more luxurious feel, but it costs more than the average bed in a box. If you decide it’s worth the money, you’ll also receive a 365-night trial period and Lifetime warranty.
