Stearns & Foster Lux Estate Ultra Firm Tight Top

GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Stearns & Foster Lux Estate Ultra Firm Tight Top

Founder of GoodBed
Michael Magnuson

Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert

Bottom Line - Is the Stearns & Foster Lux Estate Ultra Firm Tight Top the right mattress for you?
Bottom line best icon BEST if you
  • Want a very firm mattress
  • Are mainly a stomach sleeper (though this mattress can also be very good for back sleepers)
  • Regularly sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is excellent)
  • Enjoy sleeping more 'on' your mattress than 'in' it
  • Prefer a slightly below average amount of 'memory feel'
Bottom line not ideal icon NOT IDEAL if you
  • Are a side sleeper (though this mattress can be good for side sleepers who prioritize firm support over extra pressure relief)
  • Can be easily disturbed by other movements in the bed (though motion isolation is still pretty good)
  • Don't like any bounce in your mattress
  • Prefer some softness in your mattress
