Choose the Luxe OrthoSupport9 Foam if…

  • You want to spend less: it's £39 cheaper at £410.
  • Support matters most: it scores 8.9 vs 7.0.
  • You want a firmer bed (firm), e.g. for back or front sleeping.
  • You prefer close-contouring pressure relief and very little motion transfer for couples.

What we like

  • Support score of 8.9 with an active cooling layer – a rare combination
  • Solves the classic orthopaedic problem of firm foam sleeping hot
  • High-density reflex foam for genuine orthopaedic support

What could be better

  • Comfort score of 7.6 – firm, and side sleepers will struggle
  • The Majestic 11000 gives higher support for around £90 less

Choose the Luxe Nova Hybrid if…

  • Comfort matters most: it scores 10.0 vs 7.6.
  • You want a softer bed (medium-soft), e.g. as a side sleeper.
  • You prefer a springy, more responsive feel that sleeps cooler than all-foam.

What we like

  • The only perfect 10 comfort score we've awarded
  • Superb pressure relief for side sleepers from gel foam and wool-silk fillings
  • Head-to-toe zoned Forticoil springs keep the hips supported

What could be better

  • Support score of 7.0 is the trade-off for the plush feel
  • Too soft for front sleepers and most people over 16 stone
