Nest Bedding Latex Mattress Review
Nest Bedding Natural All Latex Mattress
The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress is made with latex, cotton, and wool and was designed to be both comfortable and ergonomic. More supportive than memory foam, this latex mattress will contour your body while relieving pressure. The latex construction ensures that sleepers stay cool, in addition to being quiet in response to movement. The model comes in natural or organic latex, as well as a medium (5) or firm (7) option. Shoppers can also select dual firmness for king and California king sizes, which includes both medium and firm levels within a single mattress.
Nest Bedding offers six different mattress models: the Natural Hybrid Latex, the Alexander Signature Hybrid, the Alexander Signature Series Flippable, the Love & Sleep, and the FLIP Double Sided Hybrid. Nest Bedding also makes a children’s bed, an organic crib mattress, as well as bedding, furniture, and lifestyle accessories. As the name suggests, Nest Bedding’s All Latex Mattress is the only model made entirely from latex, whereas their other designs utilize a combination of materials like foam and coils. We’ll contrast the main features of Nest Bedding’s All Latex Mattress with the Nest Bedding Alexander Signature Hybrid and the Alexander Signature Series Flippable below.

Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress Review: Our Verdict
The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress will especially appeal to the eco-conscious shopper, as it is both durable and sustainably sourced. Although its all latex construction commands a higher price-point, the option to replace the top layer in the future makes it more economical in the long run. This model is also ideal for those who sleep hot, thanks to latex’s ability to regulate temperature. As a denser mattress, it is better suited for sleepers needing extra support and might be too firm for those seeking a more plush feel. The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress is also much heavier than hybrid or foam only designs, making it more awkward to maneuver.
Choose the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress if…
- Someone seeking neutral spinal support
- People who sleep hot
- Environmentally conscientious consumers
- Those seeking a durable, long-lasting mattress
Keep Shopping if…
- Sleepers seeking a very soft or plush feel
- You want a closely conforming mattress
- You’re wanting to spend less than $1,000 on a queen size mattress
How Much Is the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress?
Latex mattresses generally command a higher price-point, so the Nest Bedding All Latex model will not be suitable for someone sticking to a tight budget. When compared to other latex designs, however, this mattress will be more affordable in the long run since the zipper design allows you to change out the top layer in the future, thus doubling or tripling your mattress’ lifespan. The dimensions and prices in the following table are for the natural latex model, which is more economical than the organic version.

How Does the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress Feel?
The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress will accommodate most sleeping preferences, as it comes in both medium and firm. Back and stomach sleepers will especially like the supportive feel of the firm model, whereas side sleepers are more likely to enjoy the medium version’s tendency to contour the body.
Both the natural and organic versions will have a springy and buoyant feel that is characteristic of latex. Due to the bed’s all-latex construction, both firmness levels are able to effectively distribute most sleeper’s body weight in a way that prevents pressure buildup.
What Is the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress Made of?
The natural and organic Nest Bedding All Latex Mattresses vary slightly in composition, but both versions consist of a cotton cover, a comfort layer made of Dunlop latex, and a bottom layer of support latex that is twice the height of the center layer. This construction minimizes motion transfer.
Cover Material
Both the natural and organic versions have a 0.1-inch organic cotton cover, but the organic is made of GOTS-certified organic cotton, which means a third-party has verified that the cotton is organic.
Comfort Layers
Both the natural and organic mattresses contain a 3-inch comfort layer in GOTS-certified organic Dunlop latex, but the organic version also contains GOTS-certified organic wool batting.
Support Core
Nest Bedding’s All Latex Mattress uses 6-inches of Dunlop latex. This creates a very supportive core, but also a much heavier mattress. Despite the density of latex, this design still maintains a springy and responsive feel, but extra weight and a higher price-point might be deterrents for some people.
What Type of Sleeper Is the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress Best for?
The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress is a versatile option, as its bouncy yet supportive feel will appeal to a variety of sleeping styles. Stomach sleepers of any body size will enjoy this model, and those above 230 pounds will feel especially supported by the firm option.
Side Sleepers
Side sleepers generally do well with a medium soft to medium firm mattress, with ultimate preference depending on body size and sleeping style. Though the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress in medium is a solid choice for all side sleepers regardless of weight, it is highly recommended for those weighing between 130 and 230 pounds. Side sleepers over 230 pounds will do best with the firm option, which receives an excellent rating for this preference and weight range due to its combination of cushioning and support.
Combination Sleepers
If you’re a combination sleeper and aren’t partial to one position in particular, the medium level will generally be your best option for versatility. The exception to this would be if you weigh more than 230 pounds, in which case you would receive better support from the firm option.
Back Sleepers
The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress in both medium and firm is an excellent choice for back sleepers of all sizes. Sleepers under 130 pounds and up to 230 pounds tend to prefer the medium firmness, whereas those over 230 pounds should go with firm.
Stomach Sleepers
Stomach sleepers in general do best with a firmer model, but even the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress in medium rates well with stomach sleepers as long as you are under 230 pounds. The medium version is most ideal for stomach sleepers between 130 and 230 pounds, but the firm level gets an excellent rating for those over 230 pounds.
How Does Body Weight Impact the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress' Performance?
Body size and sleeping style all affect how a mattress will feel, and although the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress accommodates a variety of sleepers, certain weight and sleeping preference combinations will be more suitable for different firmness levels.
The firm model receives an excellent rating for people over 230 pounds with any sleeping style. Regardless of preference, sleepers between 130 and 230 pounds will do very well with the medium level. The firm model is not recommended for side sleepers under 130 pounds, as it does not offer enough cushioning to prevent pressure buildup in the hips and shoulders.
Stomach sleepers over 230 pounds should not opt for the medium level, as it is not supportive enough to keep their midsections from sinking too deep into the mattress. This can throw the spine out of alignment, resulting in aches the following day. The medium option, however, provides just the right amount of support for back sleepersunder 130 pounds.
Is It Good for Couples?
Couples will especially like the Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress, as the medium/firm split option means that couples with differing sleep styles can share the same mattress comfortably. Since this model rates highly in terms of motion isolation, subtle shifts in position or getting up to use the bathroom will less likely wake your partner.
Its minimal noise in response to movement also means it will be less distracting during sex, and its overall responsiveness makes sex position changes less awkward. The Nest Bedding All Latex Mattress’ good edge support maximizes usable surface area, which is desirable for those sharing a bed. Lastly, since an additional person generates more body heat, this model’s temperature-regulating properties will help keep couples cool at night.
