FOAM & LATEX MATTRESSESIf you want your mattress to mold to the contours of your body and give you personalized support, then foam and latex are for you. Both materials absorb movement, so are ideal if you share the bed with a fidgety sleeper. Plus, these soft, flexible, resilient mattresses are long lasting because they can be turned regularly. All our foam and latex mattresses come with stretchable, knitted ticking on top that boosts point-elasticity, relieving stress on your hips, shoulders and neck. Try it for 365 days.

Brentwood Home is a company located out of Los Angeles. Below is a picture of their offices which house thier mattress line for inspiration. I first came across their products via Amazon. Their mattresses are very highly rated there. I have wanted to review them myself to see how they compare to the other startups and recently the company reached out to me to send me a few mattresses to review, the first of which is the Bamboo Gel 13. Brentwood veers away from the “one size fits all” philosophy that others promote. In turn they make a variety of mattresses with different materials for a variety of budgets. Brentwood even makes specialty sized mattresses for RVs and antiques. Brentwood Home designs and manufactures all of their products in their own facilities in the USA. Keeping it local gives them more quality control and lowers costs which translates into the more affordable prices. They also focus on healthy products using non-toxic and natural materials. They use CertiPUR-US foam and abide by the standards set by the Global Organic Latex Standard Certification.
You also won’t find any chemical flame retardants in their mattresses. Aside from mattresses, Brentwood Home makes pillows, bedding, draperies and even aromatherapy candles! They are planning to launch a babies and kids category with mattresses, changing pads, small furniture and toys. You can purchase this mattress from Amazon but if you purchase direct it is easier to deal with any returns. Brentwood Home has a 120 night guarantee where if you aren’t happy with the mattress within that time frame they will arrange to have it shipped back for free with a full refund. Trying to coordinate this through Amazon is a headache because their default is 30 days and the customer service reps get confused with anything that varies from that. Once you place your order through the website, it ships very quickly. I received my mattress within a week of ordering. It arrives in a box just like the others I have tested and inflates out of the box very quickly. The dents in the box are in large part due to me sliding it across my house and down the steps into my basement.
Since it’s all foam there’s not much you can break. It is wrapped well and inflated to full size in about 4 hours. The Bamboo Gel 13 is a true memory foam mattress. By that I mean it doesn’t have any bounce and does a great job with motion isolation. The trade off of course is that it won’t feel anything like an innerspring if you prefer a little bounce. I was skeptical that this mattress could live up to its reviews on Amazon given the price. Bottom line, this is an exceptional value. The contouring and pressure relief is amazing. The issue, and it’s a minor one, is that it lacks some edge support. However I don’t see it as a deal breaker since you won’t be moving around much at night anyway. I spent a few nights watching TV on it and found that I wasn’t fidgeting like I normally do. You gently sink in and feel lighter. As you can see below there are 4 layers of foam with the top being the cooling gel layer. Here’s how each layer of foam reacts
You’ll also notice that there’s little motion transfer There’s some but not too much sinkage in this mattress. It feels more like a traditional memory foam mattress. It’s a little more firm than an Endy though. Here’s a measurement of the depth of the Brentwood mattress. It is one of the thickest I have reviewed The Bamboo Gel 13 is a great mattress at an exceptional value. Side sleepers will find this mattress very comfortable. It is one of the best mattresses I have reviewed for motion transfer. The cooling gel layer works as advertised. The bamboo cover also assists with breath-ability. If you are on a budget but don’t want to compromise on quality, this is the bed for you. It absolutely ranks right up there with a top brands. Buying this will save you thousands and you will sleep great as well! You should also note that this mattress also comes in specialty sizes such as: RV / Short Twin RV / Short Full RV / Short Queen RV / Short King
