When I lay on the Casper Snow mattress, I feel like I’m melting into fresh, crisp, powdery snow. This was by design, as Casper wove special cooling fibers made of polyethylene yarn into the mattress cover. The result is a sensation I’ve never experienced before—feeling cozy and cool simultaneously.
What about firmness?
Aside from saying goodbye to my night sweats, I also thoroughly appreciate Casper Snow’s memory foam, which feels soft and gooey to sleep on without losing its medium firmness. But even more critical is its zoned support, engineered by the mattress maker to keep the spine in ergonomic alignment through firmer foam under the waist, hips, and back. With all my hours spent on planes, trains, and automobiles, where it really pays off is in the lower back. I’ve noticed that even after long-haul flights, my lower back feels much, much better the following day on the Casper Snow mattress than any of the others I’ve tried recently.
While solo travel has become a regular part of my job, at home, I sleep next to my husband and a territory-hogging Biewer Terrier. After trying out the Casper Snow mattress, which has a 30-day return policy, I also learned the mattress boasts individually pocketed flex coils. These coils surround the body for support and to further reduce motion, something I can attest to from my companion sleepers. Since we started sleeping on the Snow, I no longer feel my husband tossing and turning or my dog tip-toeing across the bed. And while I generally sleep on my back and my husband sleeps on his side, we’ve both noticed that the Casper Snow is exceptionally comfortable to sleep in regardless of our position.
Other standout features?
For peak comfort and to really feel like our bed mimics one of those at a five-star hotel, my husband and I have paired the mattress with a super soft Cozy Earth quilt and diamond knit throw blanket, as well as my current obsession, Cozy Earth’s incredibly soft, hotel-quality bamboo sheets, which also happen to be temperature regulating. Sleek in its design, the Casper Snow mattress has a standard 12-inch profile with a simple heather gray and turquoise color block at its foot. One of my other favorite parts of this mattress is how it smelled— like fresh, crisp linen—upon opening it. Who knew a mattress could smell this good right out of the box?
Is it worth it?
Yes. We got our Casper Snow mattress in a queen size (regularly $2,495), but the mattress ranges in standard US sizes from twin to California king. The Snow and the rest of Casper’s updated mattresses are currently on sale for 20 percent off, making now an ideal time to upgrade your nighttime routine to hotel-quality slumber. I promise, it’ll make you’ll look forward to coming home to your own bed after every trip.
