Douglas, Casper, and Tempur-Pedic are all well-known mattress brands. In a head-to-head comparison, only Douglas Summit offers excellent motion isolation, the most cooling features, a 365-night sleep trial, a 20-year warranty, and a free bedding bundle with your purchase. Best of all, Douglas is priced at just $1,299 for a queen size, compared to Casper’s $1,499 and Tempur-Pedic’s $2,799.

In comparison, Casper and Tempur-Pedic provide fewer features at a higher cost. Both have a lower number of cooling features, as well as offer much shorter sleep trials and warranties compared to Douglas.

Casper’s combined Trustpilot page for its American and Canadian operations is rated “Poor” on Trustpilot, and its parent country, Sleep Country, has a customer review score of 1.27/5 stars on BBB despite its “A+” (unaccredited) rating. Tempur-Pedic is rated “Bad” rating on Trustpilot and “B” (unaccredited) on BBB with a 1/5 star customer review rating.

Edge support and motion isolation are factored into our overall mattress ratings. These scores are shown in green (scores of 5.0+), yellow (3.0–4.9), or red (2.9 and below). Firmness, bounce, and cooling features are a matter of personal preference and aren’t part of our rating system, so these scores are shown in grey.

Mattress Performance Results

Firmness

Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud scored 5.5/10 for firmness, placing it on the lowest possible end of the medium-firm category, just verging on a medium feel. The Casper‘s 6.3/10 firmness score also makes it medium-firm.

Douglas Summit offers a touch more support with its slightly firmer score of 6.7/10. This means you’ll get the support you need while still benefitting from the comfort of its plush foam layers and cooling gel foam. No matter what position you sleep in, you’ll likely find that any of these three mattresses will suit you.

Edge Support

Foam mattresses aren’t generally known for having good edge support. However, all three of these mattresses performed well for edge support. The Casper and Douglas Summit both earned a very good score of 7.5/10, while Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud scored the highest at 8.5/10.

Whichever mattress you choose, you should be able to comfortably sit or lie near the edge of the bed without feeling like you’re sinking or slipping.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation helps ensure you can enjoy a restful night’s sleep, even with a restless partner. The Casper scored 6.6/10 for motion isolation, which is an above-average score. You can sleep on this mattress without being disturbed by most of your partner’s movements. Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud, on the other hand, scored 4.6/10 for motion isolation, which is below average compared to other foam mattresses.

Douglas Summit scored the highest for motion isolation with an excellent score of 8.8/10. In fact, this is the highest motion isolation score for any mattress we’ve tested so far. By effectively cancelling out any motion transfer, Douglas helps ensure a restful, undisturbed sleep.

Bounce

Low bounce is important if you’re a light sleeper who’s easily woken, while higher bounce is preferred by those who enjoy a responsive mattress surface. Comparing Tempur-Pedic vs Casper, The Casper scored a 4.7/10 for bounce, which is average for a foam mattress. Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud had a slightly lower bounce score of 3.6/10.

However, Douglas Summit has the lowest bounce score of all three mattresses at 3.0/10—a nice side benefit of its excellent motion isolation.

Cooling Features

Foam mattresses can be known to trap heat, so most modern foam mattresses incorporate cooling features to help ensure breathability and airflow for comfortable sleep. Douglas, Casper, and Tempur-Pedic all feature varying levels of cooling technology

The Casper has some cooling features, with its open-cell foam and perforated foam layer earning it a score of 2.5/10. Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud earned a lower score of 1.6/10—it only has a moisture-wicking top cover and a layer of pocket coils (in TEMPUR-Cloud’s “Medium Hybrid” version, which isn’t available in Canada).

Douglas Summit outperformed both mattresses, earning a cooling features score of 5.4/10. This is due to its moisture-wicking CoolSense® cover, CryoFusion™ cooling nanofibres in the top cover, phase-change material, a layer of ecoLight® cooling gel foam, and a layer of breathable Elastex® foam. If you’re looking for a refreshing mattress to keep temperatures balanced as you sleep, Douglas is a winning choice.

Mattress Construction

Douglas Summit, The Casper, and Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud are all combination foam mattresses with three layers each. All of them have different heights and are made with different materials.

Douglas Mattress Layers

• Layer 1: The comfort layer features 2.5″ ecoLight® cooling gel foam, which is lighter and more durable than traditional memory foam. It effectively dissipates heat and improves air circulation. This layer is enhanced by Polar® Temperature Balancing, a phase-change material that regulates mattress temperature. Foam density: 2.5 lb/ft³.
• Layer 2: The transition layer is 2.5″ of Elastex® foam. This latex-free open offers both springiness and support, similar to the way many mattresses use latex. Foam density: 1.85 lb/ft³.
• Layer 3: The support layer, which makes up half of the mattress’s overall height, is 7″ of motion-isolation foam. Designed to provide exceptional motion isolation support, it virtually eliminates any transfer of movement from the other side of the bed. Foam density: 1.85 lb/ft³.

Douglas Summit’s top cover is removable and machine-washable for easy care. It’s also made using plant-based Infinitex™ fibres that wick moisture away, keeping you cool and comfortable through the night.

Casper Mattress Layers

• Layer 1: The top (comfort) layer includes 1″ of polyurethane foam, which uses open-cell perforations to enhance airflow. Casper says this feature promotes comfort and regulates body temperature during sleep.
• Layer 2: The middle (transition) layer is 2″ of body-contouring memory foam. This supports your body and prevents long-term sagging in the middle of the mattress. Memory foam can be known to trap heat without added cooling features to increase airflow.
• Layer 3: The bottom (support) layer is 7″ of dense polyurethane support foam. This foundational component maintains the mattress’s structure and support, ensuring that you won’t sink too far into the upper layers.

The Casper’s top cover, despite having a zipper, isn’t removable or machine washable. You’ll need to spot-clean the mattress in case of any spills or stains.

Tempur-Pedic Mattress Layers

• Layer 1: The comfort layer is roughly 2″ of TEMPUR® foam. This layer is described as soft and supportive. Unfortunately, the TEMPUR-Cloud website doesn’t share the exact thickness of this layer or its foam density.
• Layer 2: The transition layer is around 2″ of TEMPUR® foam. The TEMPUR-Cloud website describes this as a firmer support layer that slowly adapts and conforms to your body for pressure-point relief. Similar to the comfort layer, the exact measurements and foam density of this layer aren’t available.
• Layer 3: The support layer contains about 6″ of premium foam. This layer helps the mattress stay structured and supportive.

The TEMPUR-Cloud cover is made of a blend of polyester and spandex. It isn’t removable or machine washable, likely due to the fiberglass in its internal fire sock. While we safely removed the cover for review purposes, we don’t recommend trying this at home. The cover should be spot-cleaned only.

Delivery, Sleep Trial & Returns

Douglas ships to you directly from Ontario or Alberta via FedEx. Including the time taken to dispatch your order, you can expect your Douglas mattress to arrive at your doorstep in 2–10 business days.

READ MORE: How to unbox a mattress

Douglas provides an industry-leading 365-night sleep trial and a generous 20-year warranty. This warranty is twice as long as those offered by Casper and Tempur-Pedic, and the sleep trial is over three times as long. If you decide to return the mattress during your sleep trial, you’ll get free return pickup service and a full refund with no additional fees.

With 16,300+ five-star customer reviews, Douglas has an excellent online reputation. The company maintains a rating of “Excellent” on Trustpilot and its parent company, GoodMorning.com, is rated “A+” on the Better Business Bureau with a customer star rating of 4.89/5 stars.

Casper

Casper ships with UPS and delivers mattresses directly to your door for free across most of Canada. An additional fee may apply for some remote locations. Casper customers can expect their new mattress within 5–15 business days. The mattress arrives rolled up in a cardboard box and protected by layers of plastic.

Casper offers an industry-standard 100-night sleep trial, a 10-year warranty, and free returns for online orders. That said, you should factor in Casper’s “Poor” Trustpilot rating.

If you purchase a Casper mattress from Sleep Country, you’ll need to follow Sleep Country’s exchange-only policy. This means you won’t receive a refund if you decide to return the mattress—just store credit to buy a different one. You also have to bring the mattress back to the store yourself, even if you ordered online and there isn’t a store nearby.

Tempur-Pedic

Note: The Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Cloud no longer seems to be available in Canada. Purchases are unavailable on the company’s dedicated page for the model. However, you may be able to find it for sale through an individual retailer or reseller. 

Tempur-Pedic typically offers a 90-night trial and a 10-year warranty. Other Tempur-Pedic models can be found at stores like Sleep Country Canada, Costco, The Brick, and Leon’s. Your shipping, sleep trial, and warranty experience will vary depending on the retailer. For example, some retailers like Sleep Country only allow exchanges instead of returns.

Choose the company that’s rated “A+” on BBB and “Excellent” on Trustpilot.
