Compare Mattress Structure

The Loom & Leaf and DreamCloud mattresses have clear differences in construction, which affect how they feel. The Loom & Leaf is a gel foam mattress consisting of three layers of foam. It comes in two firmness options, a relaxed firm option, which is about a 6/10 on the firmness scale, and a firm option, which is an 8/10 on the firmness scale.

The DreamCloud is a hybrid mattress, made up of foam layers and a coil system. Having a coil system helps the mattress provide responsiveness and stay cooler than the Loom & Leaf. It has a medium-firm feel at about a 6.5/10.

Those who want a firmer mattress with a lot of support will likely prefer the Loom & Leaf firm option. However, the DreamCloud has sturdier edge support thanks to the coils in its hybrid design. See what each mattress’s layers consist of below.

Motion Transfer

The DreamCloud mattress knocked it out of the park when it came to our motion transfer test. Our testers could barely feel their partner move around. This, however, was not the case with the Loom & Leaf which earned a 5/10 for motion isolation. If you sleep alone this isn’t too big of a deal but couples will likely do better with the DreamCloud.

Edge Support

Edge support is something you probably don’t think about when buying a mattress but can be helpful if you often sit on the end of your bed to put on your shoes. It can also be helpful for couples who want to take advantage of every inch of their mattress or seniors who have trouble getting in and out of bed.

Since the Loom & Leaf is an all-foam mattress, it didn’t have any reinforced edges and performed below average in this category. The DreamCloud mattress really excelled in this evaluation, with barely any sign of dip when our testers sat on the edge. If you sleep with a partner or like to sit on the end of your bed, go with the DreamCloud mattress.

Cooling

Hot sleepers know how important it is to find a bed that keeps them cool, especially in the summer months. Again, the DreamCloud performed better in this category since it incorporates a coil system and cashmere cover. Memory foam beds tend to trap heat which was the case with the Loom & Leaf. Choose the DreamCloud for a cooler sleep.

Responsiveness

One area both beds did really well in was responsiveness. This is how well a mattress allows you to change positions, something especially important for combination sleepers. Or in other words, it’s whether you’ll get the “stuck” feeling in your mattress. Both the Loom & Leaf and DreamCloud mattresses made it really easy for our testers to move around and would be excellent options for combination sleepers.

Which Is the Better Mattress for You?

At the end of the day, picking the best mattress comes down to which one meets your main needs. To choose the right one, consider your sleeping position, budget, and ideal customer experience.

Sleeping Position

Since the DreamCloud and Loom & Leaf mattresses are great for all sleeping positions, you can’t go wrong with either choice. Side sleepers will enjoy the pressure relief the DreamCloud gives them and appreciate the medium firmness option for the Loom & Leaf. The responsiveness in both mattresses make them a great choice for combination sleepers. The DreamCloud and Loom & Leaf are also great for stomach and back sleepers who typically prefer firmer comfort levels.

Budget

Since the Loom & Leaf is a luxury mattress offered by Saatva, it comes with a higher price tag. Those on a tight budget may want to go with the DreamCloud mattress, which costs around $400 less than the Loom & Leaf in most sizes. However, keep in mind that the Loom & Leaf mattress also comes with a free white glove delivery, which can cost an additional $150 for some mattress companies.

Customer Service

During your purchase journey, it’s important to think about what the experience is like with each company. Both Saatva and DreamCloud gives customers a full year to test out their beds. This can be especially helpful if you’re unsure what you’re looking for and need more time deciding. When it comes to warranty, DreamCloud and Saatva both offer a lifetime warranty.
