Nectar Premier Copper Mattress Review
Like
- Gel memory foam offers body conforming qualities
- Two support options make it versatile for all body types
- Cooling features are nice for hot sleepers
- Accommodating firmness for all sleeper types
Don’t like
- Not as affordable as the other Nectar beds
- Not the softest option for side and combination sleepers
- Not the most “active cooling” option
Besides having one of the longest names in the online space, the Nectar Premier Copper mattress is also the brand’s top-tier offering. It’s a quality mattress designed for memory foam lovers who sleep on the warmer side. It has copper fibers in the cover and a phase change material to help with cooling.
But how much of that stuff is the truth, and how much is just marketing? In this review, I’ll break down everything you need to know about this bed from my first hand-experience with it.
First impressions
Nectar sent this bed for free to review, but it still arrived at the office the way anyone else would get it, inside of a large cardboard box. I dragged it into the space, began ripping off all the packaging, and within about 10 minutes, I had a brand new mattress to test out.
Since this is an all-foam mattress, it looked slightly misshapen right after the unboxing. The bed didn’t quite look like itself — almost like it was depressed. I always experience this with foam mattresses, so you should know it’s a completely normal part of the process. I gave it a night to expand on the frame.
When I returned in the morning, it was mattress testing time. The bed looked properly inflated and right as rain. Upon testing responsiveness, I noticed its cover was cool to the touch — maybe some of those copper fibers at work here.
It’s a bit different to the feel and firmness of the flagship Nectar bed. That option is more affordable, but it has a specific firmness and feel that might not be right for everyone. But I digress: If you want to see how I felt about it, check out our video review below.

Nectar Premier Copper mattress firmness and feel
What does Nectar Premier Copper feel like?
Compared to the flagship Nectar, the Premier Copper presents more of a responsive memory foam feel. Its top layer of gel memory foam provides some sink-in quality, but I found it to be not as viscous as what’s found on the original Nectar. This type should still appeal to memory foam lovers, without excluding those who maybe aren’t the biggest fan of the material. The type of responsive memory foam feel here is comparable to options like Layla or Amerisleep AS3.
How firm is the Nectar Premier Copper mattress?
Based on my tests, I found this bed to sit in between a medium and a medium-firm on our scale. It’s a bit softer than the flagship Nectar bed but slightly firmer than Nectar Premier. This firmness makes it a viable option for all sleep styles, but best for back and stomach sleeping given its slightly firmer profile.
We rank firmness based on the size of an average person, which is around 180 pounds. Heavier people could find this bed to be softer at a flat medium, while smaller individuals could go the other way and find it to be at a proper medium-firm. If you’re of a normal build this bed’s firmness should work for you, unless of course you’re looking for a much softer bed for side sleepers.
