The Hästens drēmăr is built for a very specific buyer: someone who wants a tall, responsive bed made with natural fibers and is willing to pay for extensive customization. Its springy surface kept us lifted without feeling rigid, released heat quickly, and made changing positions easy. The larger obstacle is practical rather than comfortable. Hästens currently lists the King drēmăr from $112,780 in the U.S., and ordering typically involves a showroom consultation, a custom quote, and coordinated delivery.

The drēmăr at a Glance
| Mattress | Overall Score | Pros | Cons | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hästens drēmăr | 4.5/5 | Choice of firmness; breathable natural-fiber layers; quick, supportive response | Six-figure King price; showroom-led ordering; tall, heavy setup | Luxury buyers who want tailored firmness and a buoyant feel |
Is the Hästens drēmăr Worth It?
The drēmăr delivers a combination that foam beds rarely match: close pressure relief without the slow, enclosed feeling of memory foam. Its surface compresses gently at the shoulders and hips, while the deeper spring system keeps the torso level and responds almost immediately when you move. That balance made it especially comfortable for back sleeping and for nights when we changed positions often.
Its natural-fiber construction also handled heat well. The bed warmed slightly while occupied, but it did not hold a hot patch after we got up. Different firmnesses can be combined across the two sides, which gives couples more control than a single shared feel. Larger movements still create a light ripple, so this is not the best choice for an exceptionally motion-sensitive partner.
The value question is uncompromising. A King currently starts at $112,780 in the U.S., before any configuration-specific additions, and the 210 × 210 cm example setup weighs 217.2 kg. The drēmăr makes sense when responsive comfort, natural materials, custom fitting, and statement design are the priorities. It is difficult to justify on performance alone because several far less expensive beds provide strong support and cooling.
Who it is for:
- Back and combination sleepers who want to stay lifted rather than sink deeply
- Couples who need a different firmness on each side
- Hot sleepers who prefer breathable fibers to dense foam
Who should skip it:
- Sleepers who want the deep, slow contour of memory foam
- Anyone who finds a tall bed difficult to get into or plans to move it often
- Shoppers who expect performance gains to scale directly with a six-figure price

How We Evaluated the drēmăr
We used the drēmăr for 28 nights and checked it in back, side, and combination positions. The primary tester is 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 178 pounds, and usually alternates between back and side sleeping. We reviewed alignment, pressure at the shoulders and hips, heat buildup, partner disturbance, response time, edge compression, and visible changes to the surface. We took the first measurements after the initial night, repeated them at the end of week one, and completed the same checks after four weeks. Dr. Adrian Walker reviewed the alignment and temperature notes from an ergonomics perspective.
What Sleeping on the drēmăr Felt Like
The bed's height was noticeable before its firmness. The 210 × 210 cm reference setup stands about 69 cm, including the recommended legs, so getting in felt like a step up. Once settled, the surface felt buoyant rather than stiff. On back-sleeping nights, the comfort layers gave the hips enough room to settle while the center of the body stayed level. On our side, the shoulder compressed without the abrupt pressure common on firm, thinly padded innersprings.
Movement was the drēmăr's clearest strength. After a load was removed, the surface recovered to 90% of its original height in 0.8 seconds. Turning from side to back did not require pushing against the mattress, and there was no slow foam-like pull. Marcus preferred the firmer side because it kept his hips from dipping, while the medium side gave the primary tester more shoulder room.
The natural fibers also released heat quickly. The surface measured 70.8°F before lying down and 75.1°F after 30 minutes. Five minutes after getting up, it had dropped to 71.9°F. Bedding and room temperature will still affect comfort, but the mattress itself did not create the lingering warm spot we often notice with dense foam.
Motion control was good for a responsive bed, not exceptional overall. With a 10-pound ball dropped from 12 inches and the sensor placed 24 inches away, vibration lasted an average of 0.74 seconds across three drops. Jenna barely noticed small position changes, but Ethan's faster turns and exits sent a light wave across the surface. The edge felt dependable for sleeping, though a 150-pound seated load placed two inches from the side compressed it by 1.6 inches after 30 seconds.
What we liked:
- Buoyant support kept the hips and lower back steady without making the surface feel hard
- Heat cleared quickly after use, with less lingering warmth than dense foam
- Fast recovery made turning and getting out of bed easy
Who it is best for:
- Back and combination sleepers who want lift with moderate cushioning
- Couples who value individual firmness choices more than maximum motion isolation
- Hot sleepers who prefer a responsive, fiber-filled surface
Where it falls short:
- The price is far beyond what its performance advantage alone can explain
- Large partner movements remain noticeable
- The tall profile can be awkward for shorter sleepers and may require new sheets

How the drēmăr Performed
| Metric | Score | What We Found |
|---|---|---|
| Support | 4.7/5 | Kept the hips and lower back stable while preserving a lightly cushioned surface. |
| Cooling | 4.3/5 | Warmed gradually in use and returned close to its starting temperature within five minutes. |
| Pressure Relief | 4.5/5 | Cushioned the shoulder and hip without bottoming out; firmness selection remains important. |
| Motion Isolation | 4.2/5 | Muted small position changes, but faster turns and bed exits produced a light ripple. |
| Responsiveness | 4.6/5 | Recovered quickly after compression and never restricted turning. |
| Edge Support | 4.4/5 | Secure for sleeping near the side; the upper layers compressed more while seated. |
| Durability | 4.8/5 | Dense hand-tufting and the layered spring build inspire confidence, though four weeks cannot prove long-term wear. |
| Overall | 4.5/5 | Excellent support, cooling, and mobility, with value and practicality limiting its appeal. |
Who Should Buy the drēmăr?
Choose the drēmăr if you want a highly responsive bed with natural-fiber cushioning, prefer to sleep on top of the mattress rather than deep inside it, and plan to select firmness in person. Back and combination sleepers are the clearest match. Couples also gain a real advantage from choosing a different firmness on each side, especially when one person needs stronger hip support and the other needs more room at the shoulder.
Side sleepers should spend extra time comparing firmnesses in a showroom. The right configuration relieves pressure without losing the bed's supportive lift, but a version that is too firm can feel demanding at the shoulder. Hot sleepers are more likely to appreciate the fiber-and-spring design than someone who prefers dense foam.
Before ordering, confirm the exact height and weight of your size, measure stairways and door clearances, and ask what is included in the quote. A new frame, deep-pocket sheets, delivery access, or a headboard can materially change the final cost and setup. For a much less expensive luxury innerspring with direct ordering, the Saatva Classic is easier to live with. The TEMPUR-ProAdapt is the better contrast if deep contouring and stronger motion damping matter more than bounce.
What to Know Before You Order
The drēmăr demands more planning than a standard mattress. The 210 × 210 cm example system weighs 217.2 kg and stands about 69 cm with the recommended legs, so it can overwhelm a small room and may be difficult for shorter sleepers to enter. Large partner movements travel farther than they would on a slow-moving foam mattress. Most importantly, the current U.S. King price places it in collectible-design territory. Buyers should judge it as a customized bed system and interior statement, not as the only route to excellent support or cooling.
How Does the drēmăr Compare?
Why choose the drēmăr:
- You want quick, buoyant support with gentle surface cushioning
- You need different firmnesses for two sleepers
- You value natural fibers, extensive customization, and statement design
Vispring Masterpiece Superb: This is the closest named alternative in materials and construction. Its three layers of pocket springs and fills such as Shetland wool, horsetail, cashmere, alpaca, and silk create a plusher surface than the drēmăr's more lifted feel. Current U.S. retail pricing starts far below the drēmăr's King price, although larger configurations can still reach the high-luxury tier.
Savoir Nº2: The Nº2 is a traditional, made-to-order bed with hand-tied pocket springs, wool, cotton, and hand-laid horsetail. It offers dual tensions and one-piece or zipped-pair formats, so it competes directly on customization. Choose it for a softer, more traditional bespoke feel; choose the drēmăr for a taller, more visually assertive system with quicker surface response.
Royal-Pedic Premier Natural Cotton w/ Wool Wrap: Royal-Pedic uses a firm, two-sided innerspring wrapped in organic cotton and French wool. It feels more conventionally firm and lacks the drēmăr's broad design customization, but it is easier to buy in standard U.S. sizes and costs a small fraction of the price. An optional pillowtop can add cushioning without changing the supportive core.
Setup and Care Tips
- Measure the finished bed height before ordering a frame or bench.
- Confirm the fitted-sheet pocket depth; a 69 cm system often needs deeper bedding than a standard mattress.
- Use a thin, breathable protector so the top layer can respond and release heat as designed.
- Spend at least two weeks with the chosen firmness before deciding whether it feels right.
- Match pillow height to your main sleep position; an overly tall pillow can push the neck out of line.
- Test both sides together when ordering different firmnesses for a couple.
- Confirm elevator, stairway, doorway, and turning clearances before scheduling delivery.
- Rotate your usual sitting spot along the edge to reduce concentrated wear.
- Use lighter bedding first if you sleep warm; heavy protectors and duvets can mask the bed's breathability.
FAQs
Does the drēmăr feel more like foam or springs?
It feels distinctly springy and buoyant. The surface cushions pressure, but it lifts quickly and does not create the slow resistance associated with dense memory foam.
Is it good for hot sleepers?
Yes. In our temperature check, the surface rose from 70.8°F to 75.1°F after 30 minutes and cooled to 71.9°F within five minutes of getting up. Room temperature, sheets, and protectors will still affect the result.
How well does it isolate motion for couples?
It controls small movements well, but its responsive surface does not erase larger ones. Quick turns and getting out of bed can send a light ripple to the other side, so very motion-sensitive couples may prefer a slower foam bed.
Is the tall profile a real issue?
It can be. The 210 × 210 cm example setup reaches about 69 cm with the recommended legs. That height may require deep-pocket sheets, careful frame selection, and a higher step into bed.
