"Main Competition" in the charts refers to mattresses that when compared to Casper have mostly similar feel, prices, owner satisfaction, benefits, construction, and return policies. The Casper mattress has 80% owner satisfaction. This rate is similar to that of main competitors overall (80%) and better than the rate of all mattresses (74%). Learn how owner satisfaction is determined. Casper is significantly less expensive than the average mattress. But it is slightly higher priced on average than mattresses with similar specifications, namely those with about 10 inches total thickness with a three inch comfort layer that includes memory foam. The Casper mattress appears to have at least somewhat better durability / longevity than its main competitors on average. Reports of sagging, loss of support, and the development of body impressions exist but are not common.
About 7% of Casper mattress owners report adding a topper (priced $35 to $500) to soften the mattress and create acceptable comfort. About 6% of Casper owners report bothersome heat retention – a rate similar to that of main competitors overall as well as the average mattress. (General analysis: mattresses and sleeping hot.) About 8% of owners report a significant and enduring unpleasant initial odor. Complaints for this problem appear to have increased recently. (General analysis: mattress off gassing.) Casper performs better than all mattress companies overall and equal to its main competitors overall based on warranty coverage, customer service, return policy, access to customer reviews, integrity of customer reviews, time in business, marketing accuracy, specifications disclosure, and BBB ratings. In April 2016, Casper altered the design of their mattress to be softer. The firmness of the previous design was established as medium-firm for owners on average, but the firmness level of the new design is less clear.
Available owner experience data suggests that it is more medium than medium-firm (after break in) on average. In other words, on a 1 to 10 scale with 1 being very soft and 10 being very firm, Casper appears now to on average be regarded as a 6 or 6.5. This firmness level suits most owners but not all. Beyond break-in about 9% of owners find it too firm and about 7% find it too soft. About an additional 15% find the firmness to be acceptable but not ideal. It should be noted that in early 2017 Casper changed the top comfort layer from latex to regular foam. Casper says that this change has not altered the firmness level of the mattress, but owner experience data will need to be gathered to confirm this. The table below evaluates the Casper mattress for person size and sleep position. It shows what tends to be true for Casper owners; your own personal evaluation may differ. See the mattress firmness guide for details based on your body type. And people of below- and above-average weight, see the mattress guide for large and small people.
The following discusses the construction of Casper, its thickness and its weight. The top layer consists of about 1.5 inches of regular foam. The middle layer consists of 1.5 inches of memory foam. The memory foam has 4 lb/ft density. The transition or top base layer consists of 1.5 inches of 2.5 lb/ft density foam. The bottom base layer consists of 5 inches of 1.8 lb/ft density foam. The densities of these two foams combined is slightly higher than the base layer(s) densities of both foam-based mattresses on average and Casper's main competition on average. In general, higher density foam used in the base layer(s) is a durability / longevity strength as softening and loss of support tend to be less likely to occur with the use of such foam. Casper is about ten inches in total thickness. This is about 1.5 inches thinner than the thickness of the average mattress but similar to that of its main competition on average. A thinner mattress is lower and therefore may be somewhat more difficult to get on and off for people of average or greater height.
Casper weighs 55 to 104 pounds depending on size which is about 15% lighter than the average mattress. A light mattress may have the disadvantage of not staying firmly in place on its base but the advantage of being relatively easy to move, lift and handle.Not loving your current mattress?
