From our experts
Construction
Casper Mattresses8.9
Original Hybrid Mattress
The construction of this mattress is in four distinct layers, each serving a purpose.
Details
Polyurethane Top Layer
On the first layer is a polyurethane foam which is breathable and allows for cooling.
Memory Foam Layer
Beneath the polyurethane foam lies a memory foam which is unique in spine alignment while serving as a supporting layer.
Polyurethane Supporting Layer
Another polyurethane foam is second to the last layer. This one screams of more quality and firmness than the one atop the layers. This is due to its position in the supporting layers.
Hybrid Base Layer
Underneath the three layers of this mattress is a hybrid polyurethane foam with innersprings for reinforced support.
Wave Hybrid Mattress
With special attention given to coolness and comfort, this mattress comes in 5 unique layers.
Details

At the top of the descending layers of this mattress, there is a polyurethane foam which is breathable with a special Cooling technology – AirScape. Undeniably, coolness is a given here.
Original Latex Layer
Just beneath the polyurethane gracing the top as cover is another layer of foam sourced from natural latex for added softness and comfort.
Memory Foam Layer
Sitting at the layer is a memory foam significant for contouring and back support.
Polyurethane Supporting Layer with Gel Pods
Just before the last layer is another not too rigid polyurethane foam serving as supporting layer. It’s not alone. Paired alongside gel pods, it’s renewed softness, more comfort and better spine alignment for the sleeper.
Original Polyurethane Hybrid Foundation
At the foot of it all, lies a hybrid foam made of original Polyurethane foam and innersprings for even more support. The springs create a bouncy feel and aids more air flow.
Nova Hybrid Mattress.
This mattress features 7 layers of support all in the foundation layer and all incorporated into four basic layers which include:
Polyurethane Top Layer

At the second layer is a zoned polyurethane foam that is equally breathable and soft.
Contoured Memory Foam
At the third layer of this mattress construction is a contoured Memory foam to contour the body perfectly and serve the back sleeper well.
Hybrid Foundation
At the base layer is a hybrid combination of Polyurethane foam and individually wrapped coils for extra lift and maximum air flow.
Brooklyn Mattresses8.5
The Brooklyn Signature :
The Brooklyn Signature combines 6″ of individually pocketed Ascension™ springs with 4″ of patented hyper-responsive foam for increased comfort and deeper compression support. Both top foam layers are treated with a cooling TitaniumGel™ infusion to optimize temperature, making this mattress the highest value bed on the market.
Plank:
For sleepers who can never find a mattress firm enough, the Plank by Brooklyn Bedding delivers an ultra-firmer, flatter, flippable surface, creating a neutral spine position that’s better for your back and posture overall. The top side of the mattress is standard firm; the bottom side is ultra-firm, allowing for an easily flippable, highly customizable sleep—engineered to reduce pressure on your circulatory system and provide better blood flow while compelling you to inhale more oxygen while you snooze.
Spartan:
The Spartan by Brooklyn Bedding is an elite hybrid mattress, featuring an extreme performance fabric registered for general wellness by the FDA using Far Infrared Rays (FIR) technology—designed to help you reset and rejuvenate quicker by harnessing and recycling the body’s natural energy throughout the sleep cycle. Combined with the patented advanced cooling of TitanCool™, and a layer of CopperGel™ Energex, the Spartan also delivers ultimate responsiveness with maximum cooling in an antimicrobial sleep environment.
Aurora :
The coolest take ever on affordable luxury was derived from science—the average skin temperature is 91 degrees, but the ideal sleep temperature is 88 degrees. To maintain the optimal sleep temperature of 88 degrees, they infused a phase change molecule called TitanCool™ on the surface of the Brooklyn Aurora to moderate your temperature: cooling gel beads liquefy at higher temperatures to deliver cooling relief; those same beads solidify at lower temperatures to ensure an ideal sleep environment. A premium smooth top weave allows the proper amount of cooling to be delivered to you on contact. The result is the most elite sleep experience yet.
The overall construction depends on the product you have selected but most come with:
- A Quilted Top: It prevents body impression and has a smooth feel to it so you can sleep comfortably on the mattress.
- TitanFlex Comfort: This patented layer features unique response technology that adjusts according to your body. It also includes TitaniumGel that promotes cooling to ensure you never feel uncomfortable.
- Energex Support: This acts as a transition layer and improves compression and body contouring which helps align the spine.
- Ascension Encased Coil: 952 encased coils offer better motion isolation and reactivity making it easy to sleep with a partner.
- Support Foam: In the end is a 1″ support foam that makes the mattress durable and ensures it retains its shape.

Conclusion
Brooklyn and Casper share a wide margin in age. Brooklyn is older and comes with 6 different mattresses. Casper has only 3 .
Brooklyn has a mix of hybrids and all-foam mattresses while deploying high-quality materials and some technologies into the construction of its mattresses.
Casper on the other hand has just 3 hybrids where it focused all of its resources on to make it the perfect fit for any sleeper.
With its variety of mattresses for nearly any type of sleeper, body type, and lifestyle – Brooklyn would be the better option of the two.
