Leesa Original Review

Rating: 6.9
Verified
Buy Leesa
Leesa mattresses are praised for their quality, comfort, and sustainability, offering a range of options from budget-friendly all-foam to luxurious hybrids with cooling technologies. The brand emphasizes eco-friendliness, using recycled and natural materials, and social responsibility, donating a mattress for every ten sold. Leesa's lineup includes the Sapira Hybrid, Sapira Chill Hybrid, Original, Legend, and Studio, each catering to different sleeping styles and preferences. The Sapira Hybrid excels in motion isolation and breathability, while the Sapira Chill Hybrid offers good edge support and cooling. The Original is ideal for side sleepers, and the Legend is suitable for hot sleepers but has average motion isolation. The Studio is a budget option with solid comfort but lacks edge support. Leesa stands out against competitors like Casper, particularly for its eco-friendly focus and social impact.
