Beautyrest Black Hybrid X-Class Mattress Collection Overview

As I mentioned at the beginning of this review, this Collection has seven mattresses and all seven mattresses share three common elements in the comfort layers; 

They're all built with the Simmons Zoned T3 Pocketed Coil Technology.  These coils are stronger than average coils because three steel threads get twisted together to form a single coil making this a very stable support system that is exclusive to the Beautyrest Black collections of mattresses.

All three models also have BlackICE 4.0 with Plant-Based Cooling Technology within the cover of each bed.  This is a cool-to-the-touch cover that creates a cooling sensation on the surface of the mattresses while you sleep on them.

The final common material between all seven hybrid models is AirCool™ Memory foam.  This foam is infused with highly conductive and strong carbon fiber for temperature management and durability.

The mattresses have a height of 13.5" representing the number of materials included in their construction.  Since these are Beautyrest Black mattresses, they're made with premium materials you'd expect to find in a luxury mattress.

More about the Beautyrest Black Brand

Beautyrest Black logo with a small red rose above the letters

Beautyrest Black is a brand produced by Simmons Mattress Company, which has been a leader in mattress manufacturing for over 100 years. Their Beautyrest Black luxury brand has been sold for many years. As for the parent company Simmons, many people remember the “bowling ball” commercial where a bowling ball was dropped on a mattress to highlight their pocketed coils (a glass of wine would sit undisturbed when the ball bounced on the other side of the bed.)

In recent years Simmons merged with Serta into the Serta Simmons Bedding Company, making them one of the two largest mattress companies in the world (Tempur Sealy is the other.) Simmons now markets the Black, Harmony Lux, and Silver mattress collections.

Being a large manufacturer, Simmons engineers and makes many of its own components in addition to manufacturing. With their longevity and size, they have accumulated a lot of experience and knowledge in making mattresses. Simmons makes millions of mattresses each year and they’ve maintained a positive reputation over the long run. While some review sites call out consumer complaints, those sites fail to provide the context that there are tens of millions of customers sleeping on Beautyrest mattresses. And all taken altogether Simmons Beautyrest has a highly positive customer reputation.

Other Beautyrest Products

Beautyrest makes three different adjustable bed frames that pair well with their mattresses. The Motion Air is the budget pick, the Advance Motion is great for snore relief and has a few more features, and the Luxury Motion base is the most luxurious pick that is excellent for back support. 

You can also accessorize with Beautyrest bedding, whether you need a new pillow, blanket, or a mattress pad. They have a great selection of heated blankets and mattress pads.

Previous Models

What has changed from the previous models of the Beautyrest Black X-Class collection? The new mattresses do not have RightTemp Memory Foam in the comfort layers but they do have Antimicrobial Mattress Protection for healthier sleep.

Conclusion

The Black Collection of Beautyrest Hybrid mattresses is the top-end hybrid model offered by Simmons.  This is the collection of Hybrid X-Class mattresses from Beautyrest Black. These seven beds are some of the best hybrids available on the mattress market. This collection provides some of the best mattresses money can buy, they provide a huge comfort upgrade compared to the average mattress.

The seven hybrids in this collection come in four different comfort types from a firm mattress to an ultra-plush. These are great for someone who likes softer mattresses or ones with a firm feel.  All seven are similarly built from the same T3 Pocketed Coil System, the BlackICE Hybrid Technology, to the AirCool Memory Foam.  Where each differs is in the number of foams added are subtracted to achieve each bed's comfort type.

These hybrid beds have the same type of cooling materials as the other three Beautyrest Black collections.  You can find AirCool Memory Foam and the BlackICE 4.0 Hybrid technology in some models for maximum cushioning to make them more comfortable mattresses. The layers of foam help with back pain. Maintaining a cooler sleep environment will help you to fall asleep faster, and to stay asleep.

Conforming support is important for proper spinal alignment and each of these mattresses uses the Beautyrest Black-exclusive T3 Pocketed Coil Technology.  These coils contour to each of your body's curves individually for excellent support. 

These mattresses do represent a significant financial investment.  On the other hand, they are certainly some of the best hybrids in a high-end collection currently available.  Depending on your feature and comfort preferences this collection can meet your needs quite well. A new mattress from this collection will provide a comfortable sleeping surface to make a great sleep experience for most sleeping positions.
