Product Description

Beautyrest® Harmony is a mid-priced mattress collection from the house of Simmons Beautyrest®. It uses sustainable fabric made from recycled ocean plastic bottles, which helps maintain temperature and offers an environmentally friendly sleep surface. Thus, Harmony not only allows you to sleep cool, but each queen-size mattress helps to recycle (30-50) plastic bottles, helping marine life significantly. Premium foam in the comfort layers helps in advanced pressure relief and patented pocketed coils (875 Series Pocketed Coil® Technology) provide enhanced head-to-toe support under significant compression in any sleep position.

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress has two models in its collection: the Premier Beachfront Bay series and the Exceptional Cypress Bay series. The Beachfront Bay series features naturally cool and breathable moisture-wicking fabric. At the same time, the Cypress Bay variant takes it a step further with an additional layer of cooling (Infinicool® technology) and premium foam (Beautyrest® ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam), enhancing the overall sleep experience. Each series provides a unique sensation and incorporates advanced features to elevate your sleep quality.

In the following sections, we will review all the characteristics of Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress, focusing on its construction and how effective it is in terms of comfort, support, pressure relief, motion isolation, etc. The mattress review will help you decide if it’s a bed that aligns with your personal preferences and needs. Continue reading to gain deeper insights.

Q1. What Is Unique About the Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress? Does It Provide Superior Cooling, Comfort, Back Support, And Pressure Relief?

The Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress collection features high-quality, comfortable models with new designs that combine support, comfort, and cooling to ensure a comfortable and restful sleep.

Each Harmony Mattress features multiple layers of foam, an advanced targeted pocketed coil system, and the latest cooling techniques created using ocean plastic waste.

The unique pocketed coil design (875 Series Pocketed Coil® Technology) is an exclusive single-strand coil design specific to the Beautyrest® Harmony. It offers additional support to areas of the body that carry more weight. This design not only provides comprehensive support from head to toe but also excels at minimizing motion transfer.

Cooling:

Beautyrest® Harmony boasts several cooling features, such as breathable memory foam and a naturally cool sleep surface made from recycled plastic bottle fabric.

In the Harmony Beachfront Bay series, you’ll find AirCool® Foam, which enhances airflow and breathability. On the other hand, the Cypress Bay series includes Infinicool® technology, featuring cooling fibers that maintain a pleasantly cool sleep surface.

Comfort & Pressure Relief:

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress models excel in pressure relief with a superior support system and firm edges.

Beautyrest® Harmony Cypress Bay features Beautyrest® ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam, which, unlike traditional memory foam, has air capsules that adjust according to individual body contours. This prevents pressure build-up around the hips and shoulders, providing enhanced pressure relief and comfort.

Beautyrest® Harmony Premier Beachfront Bay combines Beautyrest® ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam and AirCool® Foam to provide excellent pressure relief by deeply contouring the acute pressure points. Therefore, you wake up each morning with fewer aches and pains.

Back Support:

Harmony’s support system is well-designed to offer adequate back support. The 875 Series Pocketed Coil® design supports the head, neck, shoulders, back, and lumbar region, keeping the body uplifted. This arrangement helps the body to relax completely when you sleep.

Q2. How Firm Is Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress?

Beautyrest® Harmony line offers a range of firmness options to suit different preferences. The options vary from Extra Firm to Plush Pillow Tops.

Q3. How Thick Is Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress?

Beautyrest® Harmony collection’s thickness varies from 11.5 inches to an impressive 15.75 inches, depending on the model.

Beachfront Bay series comes in varying thicknesses, ranging from 11.5 to 13 inches, depending on the firmness. The thickness includes Beautyrest® ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam, AirCool® Foam, and 875 Series Pocketed Coil® support system.

Conversely, the Beautyrest® Harmony Cypress Bay series offers thickness options between 12 and 15.75 inches for the Medium and Plush Pillow Top models. The additional thickness is due to extra cooling layers, which enhance comfort and support while maintaining the cooling properties.

Q4. Is Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress Safe?

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattresses are manufactured without using harsh materials and chemicals. The beds are made from CertiPUR-US® certified foams, which means the foam is made from environmentally friendly compounds and does not use ozone depleters, formaldehyde, flame retardants, phthalates, or heavy metals. Further, plastic waste from the ocean is converted into sustainable and temperature-controlled fabric, thus helping make beds from recycled materials, which significantly impacts cleaning the oceans and the environment.

Q5. What Sizes Are Available For Beautyrest® Harmony Mattresses?

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress is available in six different sizes, viz. Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and Cal King.

Pros & Cons

Q1. Who would you recommend the Beautyrest® Harmony mattress to?

Sleepers have options across a wide range, including a long list of mattresses in the Beautyrest® Harmony catalog. The mattresses are recommended for those who

  • Want a luxury bed that offers plenty of pressure relief, cooling, and edge support
  • Prefer different comfort options with equal distribution of body weight on the bed
  • Are side, back, and stomach sleepers
  • Are hot sleepers
  • Want a moderately priced durable mattress

Q2. Who should avoid the Beautyrest® Harmony mattress collection?

Beautyrest® Harmony is not recommended for those who

  • Are easily disturbed by their partner’s movement
  • Heavy sleepers who sleep strictly on their stomach

Firmness

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress models have a bed for all types of sleepers. The two models have different firmness levels.

Beautyrest® Beachfront Bay: This series has three different comfort options, including Firm, Plush, Medium, and Medium Pillow Top.

  • Firm: The Firm feel is supportive and ideal for those who prefer sleeping on their back or stomach.
  • Plush: The Plush choice is particularly well-suited for side and back sleepers who need extra cushion around their shoulders and hips.
  • Medium and Medium Pillow Top: The Medium and Medium Pillow Tops are the perfect blend of softness and firmness. These models are good in all sleeping positions. The Pillow Top gives a lofty feel and thus is more comfortable, especially for side sleepers.

Beautyrest® Cypress Bay: This series also offers three different firmness options: Extra Firm, Medium, and Plush Pillow Top.

  • Extra Firm: The Extra Firm feel is suitable for back and stomach sleepers who need maximum support without sinking or being trapped.
  • Medium: This option is for all those who prefer medium support with adequate pressure relief. It is a good choice for different sleeping positions.
  • Plush Pillow Top: The Plush Pillow Top is well-suited for side sleepers, as it offers a soft and supportive feel, including contouring comfort that responds to position changes.

Thus, each Harmony Mattress model has options for side, back, and stomach sleepers. The Beachfront Bay has more pressure-relieving properties, while the Cypress Bay has added cooling features. So, choose the one that suits your needs.

Material & Construction

Q1. What are the unique technology, design, and materials used in the construction of the Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress?

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress comes in different comfort types, as discussed above, and price points. The thicker the mattress, the costlier it is. Depending on the model, the comfort layers differ; otherwise, the support system and the cover material are identical.

The two Harmony Mattress models feature a comfortable bed surface made from recycled ocean plastic bottles.

The Beachfront Bay model includes 30 plastic bottles, while the Cypress Bay version includes 50. The fabric made from these bottles is lush and soft, enhancing the mattresses’ comfort and creating a lavish sleeping surface. Therefore, the purchase of every mattress contributes to ocean cleaning efforts, supporting marine life and the environment.

The cover of each model is made of moisture-wicking material that ensures that you sleep dry and sweat-free.

In this section of the mattress review, we will discuss each model’s unique design and construction features, which cater to different firmness levels and sleep requirements.

Construction of Beautyrest® Harmony Beachfront Bay Series

  • Layer 1: The comfort layer of Beachfront Bay consists of Beautyrest ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam, designed for pressure relief. It gently conforms to the body’s contours, alleviating pain from the acute pressure points, such as the shoulders and hips. AirCool® Foam, on the other hand, has small air channels that increase airflow and breathability. This helps to sleep cool and relaxed all night.
  • Layer 2: The support system includes individually wrapped pocketed coils in the center third of the mattress in a single-strand configuration (875 Series Pocketed Coil® Technology). This unique coil design evenly distributes body weight across the entire bed and offers support from head to toe in all sleeping positions. Each coil is individually wrapped and moves independently, isolating and minimizing motion transfer.

Construction of Beautyrest® Harmony Cypress Bay

  • Layer 1: Beneath the luxurious sleep surface of the Harmony Cypress Bay, you will find a moisture-wicking layer and Infinicool® technology that amplifies the mattress’s cooling capabilities, promoting a more refreshing and restful sleep. The Infinicool® layer includes cooling materials to maintain comfort throughout the night.
  • Layer 2: The comfort system comprises Beautyrest® ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam, similar to what you find in the Beachfront This responsive foam layer swiftly adapts to your body’s movements, conforming to your body’s unique contours. This aids in relieving pressure points, ensuring you wake up each morning free from aches and pains.
  • Layer 3: The final layer is the foundation on which the foam layers rest, consisting of precision support pocketed coils (875 Series Pocketed Coil® Technology). These coils significantly minimize motion transfer compared to open-coil mattresses. The arrangement of these series coils also supports your entire body by evenly distributing your body weight as you lie on the bed.

Repositioning

(4.00/5)

Q1. How Would You Rate Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress From A Repositioning and Responsiveness Perspective? 

Repositioning

The single-strand pocketed coil arrangement in the Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress offers plenty of bounce, making it easier to move around and adjust positions on the bed. The Extra Firm variant of the Beachfront Bay series does not allow the body to sink too deep into the bed, thus facilitating movement. In contrast, some, significantly heavier people, may feel stuck in the Plush Pillow Top Cypress Bay model.

Responsiveness

The make of each Beautyrest® Harmony model using foam and pocketed coils makes the mattress extremely responsive. The foam layer regains its original shape quickly after being compressed, thus making the mattress responsive, and the advanced pocketed coils enhance responsiveness by adjusting independently to your body movements.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

(4.00/5)

Q2. How Would You Rate Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress For Providing Comfort And Pressure Relief To Sleepers? 

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress is engineered for optimal comfort, providing essential back support and alleviating pressure points. Its unique precision support system, featuring a single-strand coil design, primarily targets the body’s heavier areas like the back and lumbar region. ActiveResponse™️ Memory Foam in the comfort layer of both Harmony Mattresses delivers personalized support and luxurious comfort by conforming closely around the crucial pressure points like the shoulders and hips, effectively relieving discomfort or pain.

Cooling & Temperature Control

(4.00/5)

Q3. How Would You Rate The Cooling And Overall Temperature Control Characteristics Of Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress?

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattresses are designed especially for sleeping cool. The beds are comprised of cutting-edge cooling elements such as a moisture-wicking fabric cover, ActiveResponse Memory Foam, and AirCool® Foam to manage the bed’s temperature. These features work together to boost airflow and improve breathability, ensuring that the mattress remains pleasantly cool.

Moreover, the Cypress Bay model goes the extra mile by incorporating an additional layer of Infinicool® technology, making it particularly well-suited for individuals who tend to sleep hot. To further enhance temperature regulation, both mattress models feature pocketed coils at their core, facilitating increased airflow throughout the entire mattress and maintaining a consistently cool sleeping environment.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

(4.25/5)

Q4. Does Beautyrest® Harmony Mattresses Provide Reasonable Motion Isolation When Sharing A Bed With Others?

Beautyrest® Harmony provides reasonable motion isolation when sharing a bed with partners. The proprietary memory foam layer in both Beachfront Bay and Cypress Bay dampens motion to a large extent. So, when you or your partner moves or gets out of bed, the foams reduce the impact on the other side. Further coils encased in fabric pockets allow independent movement when pressure is applied. This design minimizes motion transfer across the bed, making it suitable for couples.

Edge Support

(4.00/5)

Q5. How would you rate the edge support of Beautyrest® Harmony Mattresses?

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress offers reasonably good edge support. The single-stand coil design surrounded by responsive foam makes the edges sturdy, minimizing sagging along the sides. Strong support along the edges is essential as it increases the usable sleeping surface, making it safer to sit or sleep near the bedside.

Beautyrest® Harmony Cypress Bay Extra Firm series performs better in edge support compared to the rest of the firmness levels.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Beautyrest® Harmony’s comprehensive firmness collection, from Extra Firm to Medium to Plush, makes it a choice for many customers.

 Side Sleepers

Side sleepers need a mattress that cushions their body curves, preventing pressure from developing in these areas.

Beautyrest® Harmony Beachfront Bay Plush is a good choice for side sleepers as the ActiveResponse foam layer cushions the neck, hips, and shoulders exceptionally well, allowing for a painless deep sleep. Side sleepers enjoy the foam’s contouring in the Plush Pillow Top Cypress Bay series. Besides cushioning the critical pressure points, the layer helps keep the spine properly aligned. This reduces pressure on the lower back. The Medium Cypress Bay will also suit light and average-weight side sleepers, but the Extra Firm Beautyrest model is uncomfortable for side sleepers.

Back Sleepers

Sleeping on the back maintains the natural posture, keeping the spine appropriately aligned.

Back sleepers will enjoy sleeping on all the models of the Beautyrest® Harmony. Plush and Pillow Top options are a good fit for those weighing less than 130 pounds. For sleepers in the weight category of 130 to 230 pounds, the Cypress Bay provides ample support and relieves pressure from the lower back and spine, thus reducing aches and pains. The coils in the support core prevent the hips from sinking, keeping the spine aligned. Those above 230 pounds will sleep best on the Firm variants of the Beachfront Bay and Cypress Bay, as they would get adequate support, contouring, and firmness.

Stomach Sleepers

Stomach sleepers need a firm, supportive mattress to keep their hips and abdomen from sinking deep into the bed. This averts pressure build-up in the lower back.

Stomach sleepers below 230 pounds will sleep comfortably on the Medium Beautyrest® Harmony Cypress Bay series. For stomach sleepers above 230 pounds, the Harmony Beachfront Bay Firm and the Cypress Bay Extra Firm will be suitable choices, as these beds prevent the hips from sinking deep. The Plush option is not suitable for stomach sleepers, as they will sink deep and develop several pressure points.

Combination Sleepers

Beautyrest® Harmony Mattress collection, with different firmness options across its two models, is suitable for combination sleepers. The foam layer conforms to various body contours, while the pocketed coils support the body in every sleeping position.

I hope this mattress review will help you choose the most suitable bed in the Beautyrest® Harmony catalog for your needs.
