Brooklyn Bedding is a powerhouse in the online mattress industry because it offers several quality mattresses at very fair, affordable prices. The secret to the sauce is that Brooklyn Bedding owns its own manufacturing plants and makes its own beds, allowing the brand to cut costs by removing the middleman from the picture.
The Brooklyn Bedding Signature mattress stands around 11.5 inches tall.

Feel
The Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid bed is a solid hybrid mattress (as the name implies) that manages to provide both support and pressure-relieving comfort. The softer the mattress profile you go with, the more you’ll descend into the comfort layers. It’s not in a sinking memory foam way, but more of a pressure-relieving and gentle hugging fashion. On the firm option, however, you’ll be sitting more on top of the bed rather than into it. Either way, it’s an incredibly pleasant and responsive feel that I think most people will enjoy because it’s so neutral and accommodating.
Motion isolation
Nothing to complain about here. It’s really good at absorbing motion, even though there are coils in the bottom layer. With the pillow top combined with several slabs of foam, it does a good job at stopping motion in its tracks. If you sleep with a partner and want a hybrid bed, I think this would be a nice option.
Edge support
There are a ton of coils in the Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid mattress, and because of that, it helps keep the edges of the mattress sturdy and supportive. It’s not hard to get out of bed, nor should you get the feeling like you’re going to fall off the edge if you’re settled all the way to the left or right side.
Temperature
This is more of a subjective feature, because your temperature can depend a lot on the local weather, how hot you keep your home, and the pajamas you wear to bed at night. However, if you twisted my arm, I’d say this bed is temperature neutral. It shouldn’t make you sleep hot, but it won’t cool you down while you sleep. If that’s something you’re interested in, take a peek at our best cooling mattress list.
Who is this bed best for?
Not all beds are made to be one-size-fits-all, but Brooklyn Bedding manages to come pretty close.
Position
Since there are three firmness levels, all sleeping types can find a match that fits them. Side sleepers should opt for the soft or medium model depending on how soft you want your bed to be, while back and stomach sleepers will get more back support from the firm model.
If you’re a combination sleeper, I recommend you cater to your most dominant side, or go for the medium-firm model. It still offers some pressure relief when you’re on your side, and most beds will soften up over time.

Body type
Considering its supportive hybrid construction, the Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid is able to accommodate all sizes: petite, average and plus-size. Just remember, the heavier you are, the softer a mattress is going to feel.
For a mattress as well-constructed as Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid, I’d assume it would be more expensive than beds like the all-foam Casper mattress. To my surprise, it’s around the same price at retail. When you apply discounts, which Brooklyn Bedding is pretty generous with, it’s even cheaper — my mind was fairly blown. For example, its current Cyber Monday deal makes the mattress 30% off. If you want a quality hybrid mattress for the same price of a basic foam bed, Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid is hard to beat.
Trial, warranty, shipping
With almost any bed-in-a-box mattress you buy, you’ll also receive a few perks including free shipping, a risk-free trial and warranty coverage. Brooklyn Bedding’s policies are pretty average for the industry.
You’ll get a 120-night trial, free shipping, free returns and a 10-year warranty policy, and your new bed will be conveniently delivered inside of a box. Once you unbox your mattress, remove the plastic wrap and unroll it, you’ll notice an unpleasant off-gassing smell. It won’t last long and it’s not as bad as other mattresses I’ve tested, but you’ll likely notice that the new-mattress odor I’m talking about will disappear in a day or so.
The final verdict
Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid offers one of the best values I’ve seen in online mattresses. It doesn’t feature any over-the-top stand-out characteristics, but most people just want a comfortable mattress that won’t break the bank. This bed is suitable for just about anyone — small sleepers, tall sleepers, side sleepers to back sleepers. (And no, this isn’t a Dr. Seuss poem.) It’s really an accommodating mattress with a comfy, neutral feel and an extremely reasonable price tag.
