Wright Mattress: what the brand is
Wright is a direct-to-consumer US mattress brand focused on high-density foam construction and what it calls hotel-grade durability. The brand sells primarily online and targets sleepers who want a premium foam feel without the price markup of legacy brick-and-mortar retailers. Their flagship model is the W1-27, an all-foam mattress, alongside the W2.15 hybrid.
Wright reports a very high customer satisfaction rate, with most reviewers praising initial comfort and pressure relief. The brand is not widely stocked in showrooms, which makes the 120-night trial the main testing mechanism.
Wright W1-27: construction and materials
The W1-27 is an all-foam mattress with a layered high-density memory foam build:
- Top layer: 1.5 inches of 4 lb density memory foam at 10 ILD, gel-infused for moderate heat dissipation and a soft, contouring feel on entry.
- Second layer: 2 inches of 3 lb density polymer-reinforced ZeroG foam at 18 ILD, designed to contour without sacrificing breathability.
- Third layer: 1.5 inches of 5 lb density ZeroG foam at 20 ILD for durability and transition support.
- Support core: 6 inches of 1.8 lb density base foam at 30 ILD, providing stable foundational support and air circulation through the structure.
Total height is approximately 12 inches. All materials are certified non-toxic, and the mattress is made in the USA. It ships compressed in a box and requires a 24-hour expansion period before use.
Comfort and firmness
The W1-27 sits at medium-soft, roughly 4 to 5 out of 10 on a standard 10-point firmness scale. The slow-response memory foam gives a pronounced "sink-in" feel with deep contouring around shoulders and hips. Side sleepers typically find this comfortable. Back sleepers on the average to heavier side may find the medium-soft feel insufficient for lumbar support over a full night.
The mattress does not have a zoned support system, so the firmness is uniform across the sleep surface. For sleepers who prefer the cloud-like feel of dense memory foam, this is a positive. For those with back pain who need firmer lumbar support beneath softer comfort layers, a zoned hybrid like the Saatva Classic or a firmer all-foam option may be a better fit.
Cooling and breathability
Gel infusion in the top layer helps move initial heat away from the surface, but the W1-27 is fundamentally a dense memory foam mattress. Dense foam retains more body heat than an open coil structure. Warm sleepers should expect more heat retention than from a coil hybrid. The brand's 120-night trial allows time to assess whether temperature becomes an issue in practice.
By comparison, the Saatva Classic's dual-coil structure creates significant airflow through the support core, which is one reason coil hybrids typically outperform all-foam beds on cooling benchmarks.
Motion isolation
This is an area where the W1-27 performs well. Dense memory foam absorbs motion effectively at the point of impact rather than transferring it across the surface. Couples where one partner is a restless sleeper will generally find the W1-27 good at limiting disturbance. The foam does not produce any bounce or spring response.
Edge support
All-foam mattresses typically have softer edges than coil-reinforced beds. The W1-27 follows this pattern: the perimeter compresses under load, which can feel less stable when sitting on the edge or sleeping close to it. The W2.15 hybrid, with its coil core, has meaningfully better edge performance than the W1-27.
Wright W2.15 hybrid
Wright's hybrid model pairs individually wrapped pocketed coils with gel-infused foam and latex-like comfort layers. The W2.15 targets back and side sleepers who want more support and responsiveness than an all-foam build delivers. It is compatible with adjustable bases. The hybrid construction improves cooling and edge support relative to the W1-27 but at a higher price.

The Wright W1-27 is a well-built all-foam mattress with a genuine focus on density and durability. Side sleepers who like deep foam contouring will find it comfortable. Back sleepers and hot sleepers should look at hybrid alternatives. At $2,495 queen, the price is high for an all-foam mattress without a lifetime warranty or zoned support. The Saatva Classic at $1,395 queen offers a coil hybrid build, three firmness options, a 365-night trial, and a lifetime warranty, making it a more complete package at a lower price.
Frequently asked questions
Is Wright a good mattress brand?
Wright produces well-made, high-density foam mattresses with strong customer satisfaction scores. The brand is best suited to side sleepers who prefer a slow-response memory foam feel. It is not the best fit for back sleepers or hot sleepers.
How does the Wright W1-27 compare to Saatva Classic?
They are very different constructions. The W1-27 is all-foam with deep contouring, a 120-night trial, and a 15-year warranty. The Saatva Classic is a dual-coil innerspring hybrid with three firmness choices, a 365-night trial, and a lifetime warranty, at a lower queen price. Most back sleepers and combination sleepers will prefer the Saatva. Most dedicated side sleepers who want foam will find the Wright more comfortable.
Is the Wright W1-27 good for back pain?
It depends on the cause and your sleep position. The medium-soft all-foam build relieves pressure well for side sleepers with hip and shoulder pain. For lumbar back pain, especially in back sleepers, the lack of zoned support and the softer firmness may allow too much sinkage. A firmer mattress with lumbar zoning, such as the Saatva Classic in Luxury Firm, is generally better for back pain.
Does Wright mattress sleep hot?
The gel-infused top layer provides some cooling at the surface, but the dense memory foam construction retains more body heat than a coil hybrid. Warm sleepers should test it carefully during the 120-night trial and consider the W2.15 hybrid or a different brand if heat is a persistent concern.
Is the Wright W1-27 mattress flippable?
Yes, the W1-27 is designed to be flippable. Flipping distributes wear evenly across both sides and can extend the usable life of the mattress. Most modern foam mattresses are not flippable, so this is a genuine advantage for long-term durability.
