DreamCloud vs Layla In Depth Comparison
From our experts
Construction
DreamCloud Mattresses7.9
Made in China – so not really comparable to the premium US made mattresses
The construction of this hybrid mattress features a 6-premier layer design finely equipped to grant the sleeper quality comfort that last.
Each layer cones with it’s unique property and function. All combine to make the mattress durable, comfortable and serve it’s sleeping essence adequately.
The six layers include:
- CASHEX Cashmere Blend Cover
- TRUELOFT Cradling Euro Top
- Pressure Activated High Density Gel Memory Foam
- Low Motion Transfer Supportive Foam
- Supporting Base Layers
- Stay-put Foam Rigid Foundation Base
Note: 1 and 2 and both mattress covers.
- CASHEX Cashmere Blend Cover
Atop the layers of this mattress lies a unique cover which is a product of Mongolian cashmere. This cashmere promotes lightweight quality and coolness via it’s moisture wicking properties.
- TRUELOFT Cradling Euro Top
Adding extra comfort to the cover and ensuring you are well cuddled is a top-notch memory foam that is breathable. This breathable nature of the memory foam makes it cool all the time.
- Pressure Activated High Density Gel Memory Foam
Away from the top is the next layer which is made of high density gel memory foam that eases pressure rapidly and help you relax comfortably with it’s mild texture.
- Low Motion Transfer Supportive Foam
As part of the supporting layers, this mattress deploys a low-motion transfer foam to limit the effect of movements on the mattress. This ensures that while you are fast asleep, your partner’s restiveness on the mattress won’t be noticed or felt by you.
- Supporting Base Layers
Still on supporting layers, but now this is about the edges. For edge support, sturdy high-guage support system is in place with double row rim for reinforced edge support.
In addition to this, there are pocketed innerspring coils individually wrapped together to guarantee maximum support and create a bouncy feeling. This is typical of hybrid mattresses. This innerspring coils also serve to release pressure and alleviate any pains in the back region of the sleeper.
- Stay-Put Rigid Foundation Base
At base of the entire layers of this mattress, there is solid foam foundation that is very permeable to facilitate massive air flow and spread out uneven vibrations in the coils.
Layla Mattresses9.3
Layla Mattress
This 10″ mattress is built in four unique layers with each layer offering its own benefit to the sleeper. The use of copper is also a catch here.
The details
Polyester Cover
The cover of this mattress is a product of polyester blend that offers a soft-plush feeling. In addition to this comfort, thermogel was infused into this cover to make it cooler and retain this coolness.
Comfort Layer (Soft)
The first layer after the cover begins with the soft side. It’s a 3″ copper memory foam. This layer is sheer soft so it allows you to sink in and contour you afterward.
With copper infused into this layer of memory foam, it creates an extra cooling effect and owing to the antimicrobial properties of copper, you are free of bacteria while you enjoy your sleep. The copper also provides variable support in points where you have deep compression.
Transition Layer
This transition layer is made of a 2″ HD foam. This layer is responsible for the interaction between the soft layer and the firm layer of the mattress.
Support Base
At the base of this mattress is the support 4.5″ foam. It is much firmer and it’s a HD polyfoam. Usually, the mattress layers end here at the base but we still have the firm side since it’s a 2-in-1 flippable mattress.
Comfort Layer (Firm)
On the flip side of this mattress is the firm layer which is 1″ in height and is also a copper-infused memory foam but a lot thinner and firm.
N/B: Both firm and soft options come with motion isolation implying that the movement of your partner on the bed while you are fast asleep does not affect you in any way.
Layla Hybrid
The Layla Hybrid features same construction. Two firmness options, all you have to do is flip to get your desired firmness.
This mattress is made up of 5 layers with the pocketed coils making the real difference and the zipper cover of course.
The details
Feature Rich Cover
The cover of this hybrid mattress is rich in features. From being removable with a zipper to being made from a combination of polyester, lycra and viscose, it’s one feature-packed irregular cover. All these contribute to making it super cool. It’s highly breathable, soft and assures the sleeper of cool sleep.
Comfort Layer (Soft)
As usual, the soft side in a flippable mattress is the first layer. This soft side is a 2.5″ copper-infused memory foam just like it’s other all-foam counterpart.
The copper in the mix caters for bacteria protection with it’s anti-microbial properties. It makes the mattress extra-cool by zapping heat away.
It also contours the body in a slow responsive style and adds to ease pressure from relevant points where it’s needed.
Transition Layer
Underneath this soft layer is the transition layer which is a zoned 2″ polyfoam that serves as the bridge between the soft side and the firm side. This transition layer is firm which is needed for the transition role it plays.
Support Layer
This support layer makes all the difference and the major reason why this mattress is termed hybrid.
Stealing a sizable portion of the entire mattress, it’s 6″ high in pocketed coils covered in foam.
All the bouncy and floating feeling is supplied from this layer. The coils add extra comfort and coolness equally.
Base Support
This layer is usually the last but for the flippable nature of this mattress, it finds itself in this position. It’s a 1.5″ zoned polyfoam and the thinner version of the zoned polyfoam above it.
Comfort Layer (Firm)
The flip side layer is the firm one which is a 1.5″ copper-infused memory foam. It sits at the bottom so you could just flip it over and get down to the firm side of things. It is thinner than the soft side which is normal.

Sleeping Type
DreamCloud Mattresses8.6
Built with knowledge that humans have different sleeping styles and preferable sleeping positions, this hybrid mattress from DreamCloud was engineered to accommodate any sleeper.
On the firmness scale, it assumes a middle position – not too firm and not too soft. This is called the luxury firm position and is preferred by many relative to other levels of firmness.
Sitting between 5.5 and 7.5 on the firmness scale, this mattress was clearly designed to supply the ideal balance and required contour support for the side sleeper, back sleeper or stomach sleeper.
Layla Mattresses9.1
Layla Mattress
With two firmness options available, If you are a side sleeper, you can simply stick with the soft side. This layer offers better pressure relief generally for a side sleeper.
For the back sleeper, you are covered on both sides. They both help in the even distribution of your weight around the mattress so you don’t feel pressure anywhere. Both sides work very well for the back sleeper.
For the regular stomach sleeper, the firm side is ideal. It offers great support for the hips.
Layla Hybrid Mattress
Same double firmness options, the soft side is ideal for every side sleeper. It offers pressure relief and allows the sleeper to get immersed into the mattress. It also eases the pressure off the hips and shoulders.
For back sleepers, both sides are great. The soft side offers better spine alignment and contouring, allowing the sleeper to sink in for premium comfort. Pressure relief is also effective on the firm side.
For the stomach sleeper, the soft side might be too soft, and too much sinking can affect the alignment of the spine. So the firm side is a better option.

Conclusion
Since Layla came up mainstream in 2016, it has proven itself to be competitive brand. DreamCloud is about the same league too and champions the Hybrid mattress with all of its goodness.
Layla offers two mattresses: the original Layla and the Hybrid mattress. The hybrid mattress is a 2-in-1 flippable mattress giving sleepers the best of both worlds.
While DreamCloud limited its offering to a single mattress, Layla doubles it and made a flippable hybrid. Both mattresses offer the needed comfort and support each sleeper deserves. They both offer a lifetime warranty to prove how durable their mattresses are.
Comparatively, Layla does better than DreamCloud since it offers both mattress types and the flippable hybrid to suit the needs of different sleeping types. DreamCloud is great if you love hybrids alone but if you’re looking for options to see what works for you, Layla is it.
