Drew and Jonathan Mattress Reviews (2026)

Drew and Jonathan’s lineup at Rooms To Go is built around innerspring support cores with different comfort “tops” (soft to extra firm), aiming to cover most sleep styles without getting overly complicated. In our testing, the standout picks were Ruby Ranch for balanced comfort and Arada Canyon for pressure relief, while Westwater leaned firm and Capertee stayed straightforward and neutral.

Product overview: the four models we tested

Mattress Overall Score Pros Cons Ideal For Price
Capertee 4.0 Stable medium feel, good temperature balance, easy to live with Not the most plush for sharp shoulder pressure Mixed-position sleepers who want a medium feel $1,299.99 (Queen)
Ruby Ranch 4.2 Most even blend of cooling + cushioning, strong “all-around” performance Can read slightly firm for very light side sleepers Couples and combo sleepers needing balance $1,999.99 (King)
Westwater 4.2 Strongest support and edges, best for back/stomach alignment Pressure relief is limited for side sleepers Back/stomach sleepers and heavier bodies $1,999.99 (King)
Arada Canyon 4.1 Best pressure relief, easiest on shoulders/hips Softer feel can dip at the hips for heavier sleepers Lightweight-to-average side sleepers $1,799.99 (Queen)

Testing team takeaways in one minute

Across the four, we saw a clear “feel ladder”: Westwater ran the firmest and most supportive for back/stomach alignment, while Arada Canyon delivered the deepest pressure relief for side sleeping. Capertee stayed the most neutral and predictable night to night. Ruby Ranch was the most balanced for couples because it blended cushioning and stability without feeling sluggish. Mattress types, heights, and comfort profiles were confirmed via retailer listings and product detail pages.

How we tested these Drew and Jonathan mattresses

We rotated the four mattresses through the same bedroom setup and evaluated them using seven consistent metrics: Support, Cooling, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Responsiveness, Edge Support, and Durability. I focused on lumbar support, hip alignment, and “all-night” firmness consistency, while Marcus pushed heat and deep-support limits, Mia stress-tested shoulder/hip pressure in side sleep, and Jenna plus Ethan handled couple motion and edge-sharing checks. Our scoring tables below are the direct numerical reflection of those same seven metrics.

Drew and Jonathan: our testing experience

Drew & Jonathan Capertee

Our Testing Experience

The first night on Capertee felt like a clean “medium baseline”—not a dramatic sink, not a board, just a steady surface that didn’t fight me when I switched from back to side. Marcus ran warm, but the surface stayed less muggy than I expected for a foam-topped innerspring, and the bed didn’t sag under his hips the way softer builds sometimes do. Mia said her shoulder settled in “enough,” but she still noticed pressure if she stayed locked on one side too long. When Jenna and Ethan did their usual rolling-and-resetting routine, the bed stayed reasonably calm, but you could still feel a bit of springy feedback.

What we liked

  • Balanced medium feel that stayed consistent through the night

  • Noticeably cool-to-touch at first contact

  • Stable edge when sitting to put on shoes

Who it is best for

  • Combo sleepers who rotate between back and side

  • People who want a medium feel without deep sink

  • Couples who want a supportive surface with moderate motion control

Where it falls short

  • Not plush enough for very sensitive shoulders

  • Motion isolation is good, not elite

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Steady medium feel with predictable support Can feel a bit “flat” for plush lovers
Cool initial surface feel Side sleepers with sharp shoulder pressure may want softer

Drew & Jonathan Ruby Ranch

Our Testing Experience

Ruby Ranch was the one that felt “finished” right away—there’s more cushion on top than Capertee, but it doesn’t drift into marshmallow territory. I could sit up with a laptop and still feel my lower back supported, and when I rolled to my side the top layers softened the pressure points without letting my hips slide out of alignment. Marcus liked the firmer understructure because it resisted sag under his midsection, and he kept coming back to how the surface stayed cooler than expected late in the night. Mia said it was close to her sweet spot, though she still preferred the softer cradle of Arada Canyon. Jenna and Ethan both noted that motion felt more muted here than on Capertee—less “spring talk-back” when someone shifted.

What we liked

  • Best overall balance of cushioning and support

  • Cooling stayed consistent even on warmer nights

  • Calmer partner movement than the firmer models

Who it is best for

  • Couples who share the bed nightly

  • Back/side combo sleepers who want a medium feel with cushion

  • People who dislike slow “memory-foam sink” but still want pressure relief

Where it falls short

  • Very light side sleepers may still want softer

  • Not as rigidly supportive as Westwater for strict stomach sleeping

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Most balanced comfort-to-support feel in the lineup May read slightly firm for very light side sleepers
Cooling-oriented foam stack called out by retailer Stomach sleepers may prefer a firmer top
Better motion control than the bouncier builds Price jumps compared with entry models

Drew & Jonathan Westwater

Our Testing Experience

Westwater is the mattress I put people on when they say, “No softness, please.” The surface is unapologetically firm, and my first note was how easily it kept my hips from dipping when I took a quick stomach-sleep nap. Marcus looked relieved—literally—because the bed didn’t compress into a bowl under his midsection, and he liked how the edge stayed solid when he sat to tie his shoes. Mia lasted about twenty minutes on her side before she started shifting her shoulder around, which told us the pressure-relief ceiling is real for smaller side sleepers. Jenna and Ethan found it easy to move on, but the firmness also meant you feel a little more of what the other person is doing compared with Ruby Ranch.

What we liked

  • Strongest support and most stable edges in the group

  • Cooling foams and a firm build that didn’t trap heat

  • Fast, easy movement—no “stuck” sensation

Who it is best for

  • Back and stomach sleepers

  • Heavier bodies that need anti-sag support

  • Anyone who wants a firm, upright feel for spinal alignment

Where it falls short

  • Side sleepers with sensitive shoulders/hips may feel pressure points

  • Motion isolation is only mid-pack

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Firmest support feel; best anti-sag performance Pressure relief is limited for side sleepers
Excellent edge stability and sit support Partner movement can be more noticeable than on Ruby Ranch
Cooling materials called out by retailer Firm feel may be polarizing

Edge Support 4.5 Strong perimeter for sitting and sleeping near the edge
Durability 4.3 Firm structure held up well over repeated use
Overall Score 4.2 A support-first mattress with a clear firmness trade-off

Drew & Jonathan Arada Canyon

Our Testing Experience

Arada Canyon felt plush the moment I lay down—more shoulder give, more hip cushion, and a softer landing than the other three. Mia immediately preferred it because her shoulder sank without forcing her neck to angle up, and she stopped doing the micro-adjustments we saw on the firmer beds. For me, it was great for side-sleep starts, but I had to watch my hip position: if I stayed still too long, the softness could let me settle deeper than ideal. Marcus was the toughest critic here—he felt the early signs of “hammocking” under his hips, even though the support system is more structured than a typical soft bed. Jenna and Ethan thought it was the quietest-feeling surface when one person got in and out, but edge lounging felt softer than Westwater.

What we liked

  • Best pressure relief for shoulders and outer hips

  • Plush top felt comfortable immediately

  • Calmer-feeling partner movement

Who it is best for

  • Lightweight-to-average side sleepers

  • People who want a softer surface feel without going full memory-foam sink

  • Couples who prioritize comfort and pressure relief

Where it falls short

  • Heavier sleepers may prefer a firmer top to keep hips level

  • Edge support is solid but not as “hard-edged” as Westwater

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Best pressure relief in our side-sleep checks Can feel too soft for heavier back/stomach sleepers
Plush, comfortable first-contact feel Hips may settle deeper over long still periods
Good noise and motion control feel Edges feel softer than the firm models

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Support 4.1 Good for average bodies, but softer top can dip for heavier hips

Cooling 4.3 Cooling foams helped; plushness can still retain some warmth
Motion Isolation 3.9 Partner movement felt muted and less abrupt
Responsiveness 3.8 Slightly slower recovery than the firmer options
Edge Support 4.1 Stable enough, though the edge feels softer under load
Durability 4.0 Plush top likely shows wear sooner than firmer builds
Overall Score 4.1 A pressure-relief specialist with softness trade-offs

Compare performance scores across the lineup

Mattress Overall Score Support Pressure Relief Cooling Motion Isolation Durability Responsiveness
Capertee 4.0 4.1 3.9 4.2 3.8 4.0 4.0
Ruby Ranch 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.4 4.0 4.2 4.1
Westwater 4.2 4.6 3.5 4.5 3.7 4.3 4.4
Arada Canyon 4.1 4.1 4.7 4.3 3.9 4.0 3.8

On the numbers, Ruby Ranch is the most evenly strong across categories, while Westwater wins the “support and edge” battle but gives up ground on pressure relief. Arada Canyon is the clear pressure-relief leader, with a mild penalty in responsiveness and support for heavier bodies. Capertee stays the most middle-of-the-road—strong enough everywhere, dominant nowhere.

How to choose a Drew and Jonathan mattress

If you sleep on your side and feel pressure at the shoulder or hip, start with Arada Canyon; if you share the bed, Ruby Ranch is the safest all-around pick for balanced comfort and calmer motion. If you’re a back/stomach sleeper or you’re heavier and hate sag, Westwater is the firm support play. If you want a true medium that doesn’t overcommit to plushness or firmness, Capertee is the simplest choice.

Limitations to keep in mind

These mattresses are tuned as distinct “feel profiles,” so choosing the wrong firmness is the fastest way to miss. Westwater can be too firm for side sleepers with sensitive joints, while Arada Canyon can feel too soft under heavier hips over long still periods. Ruby Ranch is the most adaptable, but very light side sleepers may still prefer the softer Arada Canyon. Capertee is balanced, yet it won’t deliver that deep-cushion pressure relief some side sleepers want.

Drew and Jonathan vs. alternatives

Choose these mattresses if you want: (1) a clear firmness ladder (soft to extra firm), (2) cooling-forward foams paired with an innerspring core, and (3) zoned support plus reinforced edges called out across multiple models.
If you’re a lightweight side sleeper who still wants more contour, consider Helix Midnight (soft pressure relief with balanced support). If you’re a hot sleeper who wants a more specialized cooling build, consider Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe (stronger cooling emphasis and multiple firmness options).

Pro tips for Drew and Jonathan mattresses

  • Give each mattress at least 7–10 nights before making a final comfort call, especially if you’re switching firmness categories.

  • If you’re between Ruby Ranch and Westwater, choose Westwater only if you consistently sleep on your back or stomach.

  • For Arada Canyon, use a supportive pillow that keeps your head level; a plush top can make a too-tall pillow feel awkward fast.

  • If you sit on the edge often (shoes, stretching), Westwater is the safest pick for a firmer, more stable perimeter feel.

  • For couples, test “edge sharing” before buying—sleep with both bodies in the outer third to see if you feel crowding.

  • If you run hot, use breathable bedding (lighter comforter, moisture-wicking sheets) to let the mattress cooling materials do their job.

  • Rotate the mattress head-to-foot on a consistent schedule to reduce early body impressions.

  • If you’re a side sleeper choosing Capertee, consider a slightly softer pillow-topper only if your shoulder pressure doesn’t settle after break-in.

  • When evaluating motion isolation, focus on wake-ups: if you notice your partner’s first movement of the night, prioritize Ruby Ranch or Arada Canyon.

He coordinates the team, designs scoring frameworks, and lives with every product long enough to feel real strengths and weaknesses. His combination-sleeping and mixed lounging habits keep him focused on long-term comfort and support.

Marcus Reed

Heavyweight Sofa & Mattress Tester

Marcus brings a heavier build and heat-sensitive profile into every test. He pushes deep cushions, edges, and frames harder than most users. His feedback highlights whether a design holds up under load, runs hot, or collapses into a hammock-like slump during long gaming or streaming sessions.

Carlos Alvarez

Posture & Work-From-Home Specialist

Carlos spends long hours working from sofas and beds with a laptop. He tracks how mid-back, neck, and lumbar regions respond to different setups. His notes reveal whether a product keeps posture neutral during extended sitting or lying, and whether small adjustments still feel stable and controlled.

Mia Chen

Petite Side-Sleeper & Lounger

Mia tests how mattresses and sofas treat a smaller frame during side sleeping and curled-up lounging. She feels pressure and seat-depth problems very quickly. Her feedback exposes designs that swallow shorter users, leave feet dangling, or create sharp pressure points at shoulders, hips, and knees.

Jenna Brooks

Couple Comfort & Motion Tester

Jenna evaluates how well sofas and mattresses handle real shared use with a partner. She tracks motion transfer, usable width, and edge comfort when two adults spread out. Her comments highlight whether a product supports relaxed couple lounging, easy repositioning, and quiet nights without constant disturbance.

Jamal Davis

Tall, Active-Body Tester

Jamal brings a tall, athletic frame and post-workout soreness into the lab. He checks seat depth, leg support, and surface responsiveness on every product. His notes show whether cushions bounce back, frames feel solid under long legs, and sleep surfaces support joints during recovery stretches and naps.

Ethan Cole

Restless Lounger & Partner Tester

Ethan acts as the moving partner in many couple-focused tests. He shifts positions frequently and pays attention to how easily a surface lets him turn, slide, or return after short breaks. His feedback exposes cushions that feel too squishy, too sticky, or poorly shaped for real-world lounging patterns.
