Company Overview

We love the All American story of Brooklyn Bedding. A true entrepreneur with grit, vision and a lot of help along theBrooklyn Bedding Factory and Trucks way, John Merwin formed what is now Brooklyn Bedding in 1995. Not in Brooklyn, NY as one might think, but in Phoenix, Arizona (he named the company after his daughter, Brooklyn). Originally a mattress liquidation business, it soon turned to building a mattress and listing it on Amazon, just to see what might happen. Well, it took off and John launched Brooklynbedding.com. A pioneer in many respects, John was one of the original visionaries of a bed-in-a-box mattress packaging and delivery system. John wanted to ensure his beds were known for high quality at a price everyone could afford. Therefore, he took the entire manufacturing process in-house. To this day, all Brooklyn Bedding mattresses are made start-to-finish in their Phoenix factory; many on the assembly team have been making mattresses by hand for decades. They have earned a reputation not only for making one of the leading mattresses in the industry, but for quick delivery, superior customer support and one of the best trial and warranties in the industry.

As a testament to Brooklyn’s commitment to quality, Brooklyn Bedding now manufactures many of the top private label mattress brands on the market. Brooklyn lists 6 models on their website, but they also manufacture brands such as Plank (extra firm) and Titan (for plus sized sleepers)Now 25 years old, Brooklyn is showing no signs of slowing down – in the last two years, Brooklyn Bedding has doubled its production capacity. They have recently completed the buildout of a new 600,000-square-foot factory in Phoenix where even more mattresses can be handcrafted, on demand, and shipped direct to customers’ doors.

Dreamfoam Copper Construction & Materials

Dreamfoam Copper by Brooklyn Bedding mattress layers

Dreamfoam Copper mattress cooling coverThe Cover

The cooling experience begins as soon as you touch the cover. It is a smooth top weave that feels silky to the touch. It is specially engineered to enable you to feel the hyper-cooling technology at work in the foam as soon as you come into contact. The weave is ultra breathable and highly wicking so you stay cool and dry all night long.

Comfort Layer

Depending upon desired height, Brooklyn starts with either 1.5″ or 3″ of proprietary gel memory foam.  Brooklyn infused Copper into this top comfort layer. Why? Two reasons. First, copper is highly conductive so it works harder to draw heat away from the body. Second, it is highly antimicrobial, 1,000 times more antimicrobial than stainless steel. This bacteria killer will keep your bed feeling fresh and smelling clean longer.

For additional contouring, Brooklyn adds a second layer (2″ or 2.5″) of gel foam.  This helps provide additional pressure relief on the hips and shoulders.

Finally, Brooklyn adds a  2” transition layer of VariFlex Foam before the coils.  VariFlex offers additional support and helps the memory foam respond to motion more quickly.

Below are the two comfort layer configuraitons:

Copper 12″: 1.5″ Copper Infused Memory Foam; 2.5″ Memory Foam; 2″ VariFlex

Copper 13″: 3″ Copper Infused Memory Foam; 2″ Memory Foam; 2″ VariFlex

Coil System

The Copper’s support system employs up to 961 individually encased 6” steel Ascension coils directly underneath the comfort layer. Dreamfoam individually wraps each coil to mitigate any motion transfer within the mattress. This combination allows for plenty of reactivity and motion isolation, minimizing sleep disturbance. Additionally, Dreamfoam reinforces the edge with higher caliber perimeter coils to create greater edge support along the sides, head and foot of the bed. The result? A solid support system that will last for years to come.

Tufting

Tufting is the process where the individual parts of the mattress are either sewn or glued together to prevent slippage. In the Copper’s case, they chose top tufting, where the cover is sewn into the gel foam layer. Tufting helps keep everything nice and together. This is just another example of the little details Dreamfaom takes care of so you can rest easy.

Does the Copper Sleep Cool?

YES! We found Dreamfoam Copper to offer a cool temperature control. Being cool at night is all about being dry. The Copper accomplishes the cool factor through a 3 step process:

  1. The cover is cool-to-the-touch & wicks away moisture
  2. The Copper infused gel memory foam comfort layer pulls heat from the body (and doesn’t return it!)
  3. As the mattress is a hybrid, air flows and circulates in-between the coil system

Final result – Dreamfoam Copper will keep you cool and dry throughout the night allowing your body to get the rest it deserves.

How about Edge Support?
Ok

Dreamfoam reinforces the Copper’s support system with higher caliber Ascension springs around the perimeter of the mattress. The result improves the edge support and ensures a somewhat “sag free” experience. This edge support increases the sleeping area so, for example, if one partner is a bed hog, the other partner can rest soundly on the edge. However, there are 5″ of contouring gel foam above the springs, which can sag a little, especially if sitting on the edge.  If you are looking for greater edge support, check out the Brooklyn Aurora, also at a great budget, but the 8″ coils offer greater edge support.

Endurance Testing – Will the Copper Stand the Test of Time?

The Dreamfoam Copper is one of the best quality mattresses in this budget range. Dreamfoam spends a tremendous amount of time stress testing the materials to get the most out of the springs and foam. The result? A long lasting bed that can support up to 950 lbs.

Dreamfoam Copper Comfort & Feel

Dreamfoam Copper mattress by Brooklyn Bedding front view

The Dreamfoam Copper is built for the coolest sleep at a budget friendly price.  The Copper is available in a firm 12″ and a medium 13″.

Dreamfoam Copper 12″ – Firm Feel

Dreamfoam Copper 12″ provides a traditional memory foam firm feel.  However, they jazz it up with a ton of cooling features.  Immediately, the cover hits you with a cool sensation from the phase change material.  From there, the 2.5″ of copper and graphite infused gel foam contours to your body ever so slightly (this is the firm version).  As mentioned above, Copper is highly conductive for coolness and 1,000 more antimicrobial than steel, for freshness.  You will definitely sleep more “on top” the mattress than “in’ the mattress.  Quickly, you begin to feel the support from the Ascension pocketed coils as it aligns the spine and gives you enough resistance to push back to fill the spaces in-between your body and the mattress.

The Dreamfoam Copper 12 is a multisleeper, meaning it supports side, back and stomach sleepers alike.  However, the naturally firmer nature of the 12″ will make it more comfortable for back, stomach and combination sleepers.  Exclusive side sleepers should look more towards the medium.

Combination sleepers get the best of both worlds as the Copper offers the pressure and spinal alignment due to the sinking of the hip and shoulder regions. Because the bed envelops you, some think that might make the bed sleep warmer or even hotter. This is not the case with the Copper. The cooling gel and Copper infusion combined with the air flow design and the cover keep you cool to temperature neutral all evening long.

The sweet spot for weight is up to 200 lbs (especially for side sleepers). Above that weight, you’ll start to lose the benefit of the pressure relief from the gel as your body rests more on the springs. At that size, you might consider the Brooklyn Signature model as the comfort layer provides additional support and comfort relief.

  • On Sandman’s Firmness Scale, we rate Dreamfoam Copper a 7 out of 10.
  • While it’s a multi-sleeper, back and combination sleepers will feel the most comfort.
  • Even though you sink a little into the comfort layer, the airflow design and advanced cooling technology will keep you cool and dry all night long.
  • Edge support is okay.

Dreamfoam Copper 13″ – Medium Feel

Dreamfoam Copper 13″ provides a traditional medium memory foam firm feel.  As with the 12″, Dreamfoam ups the cooling game with a ton of advanced features.  Immediately, the cover hits you with a cool sensation from the phase change material.  From there, the 3″ of copper and graphite infused gel foam contours to your body providing a clout-like sensation.  As mentioned above, Copper is highly conductive for coolness and 1,000 more antimicrobial than steel, for freshness.  You will sleep more “in” the mattress than “on-top”.  As the bed contours to all of your features, you begin to feel the support from the Ascension pocketed coils as it aligns the spine and gives you enough resistance to push back to fill the spaces in-between your body and the mattress.

The Dreamfoam Copper 13″ is a multisleeper, meaning it supports side, back and stomach sleepers alike.  However, the naturally medium nature of the 13″ will make it more comfortable for side and combination sleepers.  Exclusive back and stomach sleepers should look more towards the firm.

Side sleepers get the best of both worlds as the Copper offers the pressure and spinal alignment due to the sinking of the hip and shoulder regions. Because the bed envelops you, some think that might make the bed sleep warmer or even hotter. This is not the case with the Copper. The cooling gel and Copper infusion combined with the air flow design and the cover keep you cool to temperature neutral all evening long.

The sweet spot for weight is up to 200 lbs (especially for side sleepers). Above that weight, you’ll start to lose the benefit of the pressure relief from the gel as your body rests more on the springs. At that size, you might consider the Brooklyn Signature model as the comfort layer provides additional support and comfort relief.

  • On Sandman’s Firmness Scale, we rate Dreamfoam Copper a 5 out of 10.
  • While it’s a multi-sleeper, side sleepers will feel the most comfort.
  • Even though you sink a little into the comfort layer, the airflow design and advanced cooling technology will keep you cool and dry all night long.
  • Edge support is okay.

Motion Isolation

The Dreamfoam Copper offers good motion isolation. Simply put, you will rarely feel your partner move at night. Whether they are a toss and turner, an early riser or using the facilities, it’s not the bed that will wake you. The gel foam, by its very nature. does not transfer motion. It absorbs energy.  Any motion might come from the springs below, but the pocket coil system separates the springs further isolating any motion transfer. However, to counter the additional motion possibility, Dreamfoam uses a dense base foam extra absorption, mitigating motion transfer as much as possible. If you need total motion isolation, then look more towards the all foam mattresses. However, the design and attention to detail get Dreamfoam Copper close to no motion.

How does the Dreamfoam Copper Mattress Arrive?

The Dreamfoam Copper by Brooklyn Bedding come in a box. It’s crazy to think that a king size model with powerful springs and dense foams can be compressed, but it can. And, with no sacrifice to quality and durability. Some people ask if compressing the springs will hurt their integrity. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Springs are actually shipped compressed all over the world (to save space). The springs integrity is damaged if pulled excessively or bent out of position. But, the way Dreamfoam compresses its mattresses, they keep their shape and strength. The box arrives via Fedex from their Phoenix, AZ factory. Simply unbox the mattress. Rest it on the bed frame, remove the plastic wrapping and the bed will decompress before your eyes. You can begin sleeping on the bed and enjoying a restful night sleep that same day.

What’s the Return Policy and Warranty?

Brooklyn offers a 120 night trial period. You can either return it for a 100% refund,Image of a 10 Year Warranty Seal, gold with black lettering. Every Avocado EOC mattress comes with a 10 year warranty. or you can adjust the comfort level with a free mattress topper during the trial period. You may also exchange it for a different mattress and pay/refund any price difference. Here’s how the system works:

  1. The trial begins when you RECEIVE the mattress (the Fedex delivery day).

  4. Returns: In most cases, Brooklyn will request that you have the mattress donated. Many of the charity foundations that are available offer a local pickup service. In the event that you are having trouble getting this coordinated, please let Brooklyn know and they will offer additional assistance. Once donated, you will receive a full refund. If you are having trouble, reach out to Brooklyn and they will be happy to assist.
  5. Full 100% refunds (no fees!!) are issued within 3-4 business days of the pick-up.
  6. Exchanges: For an exchange, Brooklyn will send the new mattress to your home BEFORE the old one is removed so you’ll never be without a bed to sleep on.
