Lytton Sleep

The basic Lytton Sleep mattress provides a middling level of support. It is in the Goldilocks zone—not too soft, not too hard. The models are built using four layers:

• 8” Layer: Pocket coil layer to provide base support.
• 3” Layer: Serene foam temperature control layer that also helps to relieve pressure. A natural foam that offers support and reduces motion transfer.
• 1” Layer: Gel memory foam layer for support and cooling.
• Cover: Breathability cover layer made from hand-tufted cotton.

The Plus model is built using the same materials but is a little firmer thanks to the addition of denser foam.

It’s a solidly built product that effectively manages the temperature. It’s not as complex as some of the other products we have covered, however, and the limited options with regards to firmness and support will put some consumers off.

The Lytton features a hand-tufted cotton cover. It feels great, providing a plush and luxurious finish, is breathable, and should be durable enough to last for years to come.

One of the few issues we have with this cover, and the mattress, on the whole, concerns the fabric buttons. These are much larger than usual, creating sizable indents that you can feel when you lie down. However, while this is initially off-putting, it’s something you stop noticing after a couple of nights.

All orders are shipped free across the United States. The mattresses are wrapped in plastic, packed into a box, and need to be left to expand and breathe when they have been unpacked.

The 100 Night Sleep Trial gives you a chance to test the mattress for yourself before fully committing and Lytton Sleep recommends that you give it at least 30 nights before making your decision. This is true for all mattress-in-a-box brands as it can take a while to settle and to get used to the change.

If you do experience an issue with your Lytton Sleep mattress, you will need to email them or send a message using a form on their website. This is one of the few issues that we have with the company—there is no physical address, phone number, or Live Chat. It’s frustrating if you have an issue and it’s also very unusual, but it’s increasingly becoming the norm for companies like this as it allows them to keep costs low and focus on creating a high-quality, affordable product.
