Merrick Lane Mattress Reviews (2026)

Merrick Lane Mattress focuses on a tight, four-model hybrid lineup built around pocketed coils and CertiPUR-US certified foams, with prices that start in the low-$100s and climb into the $700s depending on model and size. I found the best “middle of the road” choice, a clear edge-support winner, and one truly firm option, but hot sleepers and very pressure-sensitive side sleepers won’t love every pick.

Product Overview

Mattress Overall Score Pros Cons Ideal For Price
Hulen 12 Inch Hybrid Pocket Spring & CertiPUR-US Certified Memory Foam Mattress 4.0/5.0 Balanced support and contour, steady for mixed positions Edge feel is only average Back/side combo sleepers who want a conventional hybrid feel $193.98–$427.98
Luna 10 Inch Hybrid Mattress CertiPUR-US Certified Foam & Pocket Spring Mattress in a Box 3.9/5.0 Plush surface, easy to move on for a softer bed Less support headroom for heavier bodies Lightweight-to-average sleepers who like a plusher top $194.98–$290.98
Hulen 12 Inch Extra Firm Hybrid Pocket Spring & CertiPUR-US Certified Foam Mattress in a Box 4.0/5.0 Strong, “kept-on-top” support and stable edges Can feel too stiff at shoulders/hips Stomach/back sleepers and anyone who hates sink $236.98–$391.98
Vienna 14" Premium Comfort Euro Top Hybrid Pocket Spring and Memory Foam Mattress in a Box with Reinforced Edge Support 4.2/5.0 Best edge support, most “finished” top feel Thicker comfort stack can feel warmer Couples, edge-sitters, and anyone wanting a richer top layer $420.98–$706.98

Testing Team Takeaways

Across the four Merrick Lane Mattress models, the lineup splits cleanly: Vienna felt the most polished and supportive at the perimeter, Hulen 12 Hybrid landed the most balanced alignment for me, Luna 10 ran softer and more forgiving up top, and Hulen 12 Extra Firm stayed the most level for Marcus’s heavier frame. Jenna and Ethan preferred Vienna when motion and edge use were the priority, while Marcus leaned hard toward the Extra Firm to avoid any hint of sag.

How We Tested It

I slept on each mattress in everyday conditions—full nights plus shorter “real life” blocks like reading and laptop time—to see whether support held up when my lower back was tired. We scored Support, Cooling, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Responsiveness, Edge Support, and Durability using the same set of checks each time (edge-sitting, roll-and-return, partner movement, and heat buildup after extended contact). Marcus focused on anti-sag support and heat retention, while Jenna and Ethan concentrated on motion transfer and edge use for two sleepers.

Merrick Lane Mattress: Our Testing Experience

Luna 10 Inch Hybrid Mattress CertiPUR-US Certified Foam & Pocket Spring Mattress in a Box

Our Testing Experience

The Luna was the quickest “settle in and relax” bed for me. The first night, I noticed a soft landing when I rolled onto my side, then a gentle pushback from the coils when I switched to my back. Jenna and Ethan liked how it felt less “stuck” than thicker foam tops, but they still picked up some movement when one person got up. Marcus ran warmer on it than he wanted, and on his stomach he could feel his hips wanting to dip unless he centered himself.

What we liked:

  • Light, plush surface feel with easy position changes

  • Noticeable springy support under the foam

  • Good starter hybrid feel for the money

Who it is best for:

  • Lightweight-to-average sleepers who want plush comfort

  • Combo sleepers who rotate between side and back

  • Guest rooms where a soft-first-impression matters

Where it falls short:

  • Heavier bodies needing extra lumbar “hold-up”

  • Couples who are extremely motion-sensitive

  • People who want a firmer, flatter surface

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Plush comfort; easy to turn; airy hybrid feel Less support headroom for heavier sleepers; edge is only fair; motion control is not the best of the four

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Support 3.8 Comfortable for mixed positions, but less “hold up” for heavier hips
Cooling 4.0 Airflow from coils helped, though foam still warmed over time

Motion Isolation 3.8 Pocketed coils help, but partner movement still registers
Responsiveness 4.2 Easy roll-and-return; no stuck feeling
Edge Support 3.5 Edge is usable, but softer than the thicker models
Durability 3.8 Solid hybrid build, but thinner profile feels less robust long term
Overall 3.9 Plush-leaning hybrid that works best for lighter-to-average sleepers

Hulen 12 Inch Hybrid Pocket Spring & CertiPUR-US Certified Memory Foam Mattress

Our Testing Experience

This was the “default answer” mattress for my body. On my back, my hips stayed level enough that my lower back didn’t tighten overnight, and when I rolled to my side I got just enough contour without losing alignment. Marcus appreciated that it didn’t hammock under his midsection the way softer hybrids sometimes do, and Jenna noted a cleaner, more stable surface than Luna when Ethan shifted. It still wasn’t a lock for deep-motion isolation, but it was consistent night to night—especially after it fully expanded.

What we liked:

  • Balanced feel across back and side sleeping

  • Stable transition from comfort layer into support

  • Better night-to-night consistency than the 10-inch option

Who it is best for:

  • Average-weight back sleepers who need steady lumbar support

  • Combo sleepers who want one bed for multiple positions

  • Couples who want a reasonable blend of motion control and bounce

Where it falls short:

  • People who demand reinforced, “hard” edges

  • Sleepers who want an explicitly plush top layer

  • Very heat-sensitive sleepers who need specialty cooling

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Even support; good middle-ground firmness; solid for couples Edge support is not premium; comfort feel may be too “standard” for plush seekers

Details

  • Price: $193.98–$427.98 (varies by size)

  • Thickness: 12 in

  • Mattress type: Hybrid (memory foam + pocket spring)

  • Comfort level: Medium firm

  • Foam: CertiPUR-US certified memory foam

  • Coils: 10-inch pocket spring coils

  • Sizes shown: Twin, Full, Queen, King

  • Setup: Compressed and boxed; allow 48–72 hours to fully expand

  • Base compatibility: Trundle and platform beds; foundation/box spring required for standard bed frames

  • Item size (Queen): 60"W x 80"D x 12"H

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Support 4.1 Kept my hips aligned and felt stable under load
Cooling 3.9 Coils ventilate, but foam still retains some warmth
Pressure Relief 4.0 Enough contour for side sleep without losing support
Motion Isolation 4.0 Pocketed coils reduced bounce compared to traditional innersprings
Responsiveness 4.1 Smooth to turn; quick recovery
Edge Support 3.8 Good, but not the strongest edge in the group
Durability 4.0 Thicker build felt more resilient than the 10-inch bed
Overall 4.0 The best “one-bed-fits-most” feel in the Merrick Lane lineup

Hulen 12 Inch Extra Firm Hybrid Pocket Spring & CertiPUR-US Certified Foam Mattress in a Box

Our Testing Experience

This is the model Marcus immediately respected: the surface stayed flat when he shifted from back to stomach, and he didn’t feel the slow sag that triggers his “hammock” alarm. For me, the benefit was clean lumbar control—my lower back stayed calmer after long desk days. The trade-off showed up in side sleeping: my shoulder didn’t sink as naturally, so I had to adjust my pillow height to keep my neck neutral. Jenna and Ethan said it was couple-friendly for stability, but it can feel too “serious” if you want that cushy first contact.

What we liked:

  • Strong anti-sag support and a very level sleep plane

  • Stable edge when sitting or scooting toward the perimeter

  • Works well for stomach/back sleepers

Who it is best for:

  • Heavier sleepers who need firm hip support

  • Stomach sleepers who want a flatter surface

  • Couples who prioritize stability over plushness

Where it falls short:

  • Side sleepers with sensitive shoulders/hips

  • Anyone who likes a plush, sink-in top feel

  • People who want a softer “hotel bed” finish

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Extra-firm support; stable for heavier bodies; dependable edges Can feel stiff for side sleeping; less pressure relief than softer models

Details

  • Price: $236.98–$391.98 (varies by size)

  • Thickness: 12 in

  • Mattress type: Hybrid

  • Comfort level: Extra firm

  • Foam: CertiPUR-US certified memory foam

  • Coils: 10-inch pocket spring coils

  • Sizes shown: Twin, Full, Queen, King

  • Setup: Compressed and boxed; allow 48–72 hours to fully expand

  • Base compatibility: Trundle/platform beds; foundation/box spring required for standard bed frames

  • Item size (King): 76"W x 80"D x 12"H

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Support 4.4 Excellent hip and lumbar stability, especially for heavier frames
Cooling 4.0 Coils breathe well; firm feel reduces deep sink heat
Pressure Relief 3.6 Shoulder/hip relief is limited compared to softer tops
Motion Isolation 4.0 Pocketed coils muted most vibration from movement
Responsiveness 4.1 Easy turn without feeling trapped
Edge Support 4.0 Stronger edge feel than the softer models
Durability 4.1 Firm build and thicker structure felt long-wearing
Overall 4.0 A true firm option: excellent support, with the expected pressure-relief trade-off

Vienna 14" Premium Comfort Euro Top Hybrid Pocket Spring and Memory Foam Mattress in a Box with Reinforced Edge Support

Our Testing Experience

Vienna felt like the “most finished” mattress the moment we got sheets on it. The euro top gave me a smoother cushion when I started on my side, then the support underneath kept my hips from drifting when I rolled onto my back. Jenna and Ethan were the most decisive here: edge sitting felt secure, and when Ethan got up and came back, Jenna didn’t get that jolt she hates. Marcus liked the perimeter strength but noted that the thicker top warmed a bit more than the firm Hulen. Dr. Adrian Walker emphasized that the more stable edge can matter for posture during sit-to-stand routines.

What we liked:

  • Strongest edge support in the lineup

  • Cushier top feel without losing support

  • Most couple-friendly “all-around” stability

Who it is best for:

  • Couples using the full width of the bed

  • People who sit on the edge to get dressed

  • Sleepers who want a richer top layer than a basic tight top

Where it falls short:

  • Very hot sleepers who dislike thicker comfort stacks

  • Shoppers who want the lowest price tier

  • People who prefer an extra-firm surface

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Best edge support; balanced comfort; strong motion control Higher price tier; can sleep warmer than the firmest model

Details

  • Price: $420.98–$706.98 (varies by size)

  • Thickness: 14 in

  • Mattress type: Hybrid

  • Comfort level: Medium

  • Mattress top type: Euro top

  • Foam: Premium blend of high density foam and memory foam

  • Coil type: Pocketed

  • Sizes shown: Full, Queen, King

  • Setup: Mattress in a box; expands in 48–72 hours

  • Reinforced edge support: Yes

  • Item size (Queen): 60"W x 80"D x 14"H

  • Warranty: 5-year limited

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Support 4.2 Supportive core with a more forgiving top layer
Cooling 4.0 Breathable cover and coils help, though thicker top retains some warmth
Pressure Relief 4.4 Euro top smoothed pressure points without collapsing support
Motion Isolation 4.2 The calmest feel when a partner shifts position
Responsiveness 4.0 Slightly slower than tight-top models, but still easy to move on
Edge Support 4.5 The clear leader for edge sitting and perimeter sleep
Durability 4.2 Thick build and reinforced perimeter feel robust
Overall 4.2 The most complete performer, especially for couples and edge use

Compare Performance Scores of These Mattresses

Mattress Overall Score Support Pressure Relief Cooling Motion Isolation Durability Responsiveness Edge Support
Luna 10 Hybrid 3.9 3.8 4.1 4.0 3.8 3.8 4.2 3.5
Hulen 12 Hybrid 4.0 4.1 4.0 3.9 4.0 4.0 4.1 3.8
Hulen 12 Extra Firm Hybrid 4.0 4.4 3.6 4.0 4.0 4.1 4.1 4.0
Vienna 14 Euro Top Hybrid 4.2 4.2 4.4 4.0 4.2 4.2 4.0 4.5

The most even performance comes from the Hulen 12 Hybrid and Vienna 14 Euro Top—both avoid major weak spots, but Vienna separates itself on edge support and pressure relief. Luna’s scores show a clear “plush comfort first” profile, while the Hulen 12 Extra Firm’s numbers reflect a deliberate trade: top-tier support in exchange for less shoulder/hip give.

How to Choose the Merrick Lane Mattress?

If you want the safest all-around pick, choose Hulen 12 Hybrid for balanced alignment. If you share the bed or sit on the edge often, Vienna 14 Euro Top is the best match. If you sleep on your stomach or hate sink, Hulen 12 Extra Firm is the firmest, flattest option. If you prefer a softer first contact and a lower price point, Luna 10 Hybrid is the plushest-feeling entry.

Limitations

This lineup leans heavily toward hybrids with foam-over-coils, so shoppers wanting latex, all-foam, or adjustable firmness won’t find it here. The less expensive models don’t deliver the same edge confidence as Vienna, and the Extra Firm model can feel too rigid for side sleepers with pressure sensitivity. If you run very hot, the thicker comfort stacks can still hold warmth despite the coil airflow.

Merrick Lane Mattress Vs. Alternatives

Why choose these models

  • Straightforward hybrid construction in common sizes, with a clean bed-in-a-box setup
  • A clear firmness spread from plush (Luna) to extra firm (Hulen Extra Firm)
  • Vienna offers reinforced edge support for couples and edge sitters

Alternatives to consider

  • Linenspa Hybrid (value-focused hybrid feel at a low entry price)
  • Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam (for an all-foam, more “hugging” sensation)
  • Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid (for shoppers wanting more firmness options)

Pro Tips for Merrick Lane Mattress

  • Give the mattress a full 48–72 hours to reach its intended shape before judging firmness.

  • Use a supportive base; avoid flexible slats with wide gaps that can exaggerate sink.

  • For the Extra Firm model, use a slightly taller pillow if you side-sleep at all.

  • If you run warm, choose breathable sheets and avoid heavy foam toppers on Vienna.

  • For motion issues, move the bed slightly away from the wall so the frame doesn’t amplify vibrations.

  • Rotate the mattress periodically to keep wear even, especially for couples.

  • When edge-sitting matters, prioritize Vienna or the Extra Firm model over Luna.

  • If you feel hip dip on Luna, try a firmer foundation or switch to Hulen 12 Hybrid.

  • Use a mattress protector early; it keeps the surface feel more consistent over time.

  • For guest rooms, pick Luna for immediate comfort or Hulen 12 Hybrid for broader compatibility.

Our Testing Team

Chris Miller

Lead Tester

Chris oversees the full testing pipeline for mattresses, sofas, and other home products. 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.
