Two Brothers Mattress’ 2BM lineup skews practical and value-driven, with a mix of straightforward innerspring, memory foam, and coil-based builds aimed at everyday sleepers shopping on a budget. We focused on support, cooling, pressure relief, motion isolation, responsiveness, edge support, and durability, and found two models that feel “easy to live with” nightly and two that work best when your expectations match the price.
Product Overview
| Mattress | Overall Score | Pros | Cons | Ideal For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Austin Medium | 4.2 | Balanced support, strong edge feel, steady motion control | Not the coolest feel, not “pillow-soft” | Most sleepers, couples, mixed positions |
| Prescott Firm | 4.2 | Very stable support, crisp push-back, dependable edges | Firmer pressure feel for light side sleepers | Back sleepers, stomach-leaning hybrids, heavier sleepers |
| Charley Memory Foam | 3.9 | Deep pressure relief, very quiet, gentle contour | Slower response, weaker edges, warmer feel | Lighter side sleepers, guest rooms, low-motion sleepers |
| Clarksville Euro Top | 3.7 | Simple, supportive baseline feel, good value | More motion transfer, less joint relief | Kids/teens, guest rooms, budget buyers |
Testing Team Takeaways
Across the 2BM set, Austin Medium was the most broadly comfortable and the easiest to recommend for mixed sleeping. Prescott Firm felt the most stable under load (Marcus liked it; Mia didn’t). Charley Memory Foam delivered the best pressure relief but felt slower to turn on for Ethan. Clarksville Euro Top was the “basic done right” option, but you feel more partner movement and less cushioning at the shoulders.

How We Tested It
We rotated nightly sleep trials across back, side, and occasional stomach naps, then repeated the same daytime checks: seated edge stability, slow-roll turning effort, and how quickly the surface “settles” after movement. We tracked Support, Cooling, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Responsiveness, Edge Support, and Durability by pairing real overnight notes with repeatable spot-tests (heat buildup after 20 minutes, drop-and-roll motion checks, and edge sit-stand repetitions). We scored each mattress only on these metrics.
Two Brothers Mattress: Our Testing Experience
Austin Medium
Our Testing Experience:
By the third night, this one felt like it “stopped asking questions.” I could read on my side, roll to my back, and not chase my hips around to find alignment. Marcus (hot sleeper, heavier build) noticed the surface stayed flatter under his pelvis—less of that hammock-y dip. Mia (lightweight side sleeper) didn’t get a true plush hug, but she did say her shoulder felt supported without a sharp pressure point. Ethan kept coming back to how the bed lets you turn without thinking about it, especially when he drifted toward the outer third.
What we liked
-
Even, stable support that still has enough give for side sleeping
-
Strong edge feel when sitting and during edge-of-bed sleep
-
Motion stays controlled for a coil-based build
Who it is best for
-
Hybrid sleepers who rotate positions
-
Couples who want stability without a stiff, boardy feel
-
People who care about edge support for getting dressed or laptop time
Where it falls short
-
Cooling is “fine,” not a standout for very hot sleepers
-
Not the right pick if you want a plush, sink-in top layer
Pros & Cons:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Balanced feel across positions | Not a specialty cooling feel |
| Strong edge stability | Not plush enough for some light side sleepers |
| Solid motion control for coils | Less of a deep contouring “hug” |

Prescott Firm
Our Testing Experience:
This was the “straight spine first” mattress in our rotation. I felt it most when I lay flat on my back after a long desk day—my lower back stayed quiet, and my hips didn’t drift. Marcus immediately preferred it; he said the center stayed lifted even when he started on his side and rolled forward. Mia, though, called out that her shoulder didn’t sink enough on her sharper side-sleep nights; she kept repositioning to find a softer pocket. Ethan liked the clean push-back for turning, but he wouldn’t choose it on nights he started on his side for long stretches.
What we liked
-
Strong, steady support with minimal sag feeling
-
Reliable edge stability and easy in-and-out feel
-
Turning feels clean and low-effort
Who it is best for
-
Back sleepers who want a firmer baseline
-
Heavier sleepers who worry about “hammocking”
-
Hybrid sleepers who spend meaningful time on stomach/back
Where it falls short
-
Pressure relief can feel firm at shoulders for lighter side sleepers
-
Less of a plush transition if you want noticeable contouring
Pros & Cons:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Very stable under hips and low back | Can feel too firm for light side sleepers |
| Easy turning and repositioning | Less contouring than foam-forward models |
| Strong edges for seating and edge sleep | Firmer surface feel isn’t for everyone |

Review Score:
| Metric | Score | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Support | 4.6 | The most stable spine-and-hip platform in this set |
| Cooling | 3.9 | Firm surface and coil core kept heat reasonable |
| Pressure Relief | 3.6 | Supportive, but shoulders may feel it for lighter side sleepers |
| Motion Isolation | 4.2 | Controlled movement; slight coil feedback remains |
| Responsiveness | 4.2 | Quick rebound, low effort to roll and reset |
| Edge Support | 4.5 | Confident edges for sitting and sleeping near the side |
| Durability | 4.3 | Firm build held its feel through repeated use cycles |
| Overall | 4.2 | Best for shoppers who prioritize stability over plushness |
Charley Memory Foam
Our Testing Experience:
The first night felt immediately quieter—no bounce, no ripple, just a soft settle-in. I noticed it most during side reading: my shoulder sank and stayed put, and my hips didn’t feel perched. Mia loved it; she said her outer hip finally stopped getting that “pinched” feeling she gets on firmer beds. Marcus was less enthusiastic—he didn’t bottom out, but he could tell the top layers let him sink more than he likes. Ethan’s phrase came up again: he could turn, but he had to think about it a bit more because the foam held on for a beat before releasing.
What we liked
-
Excellent pressure relief for shoulders and hips
-
Very strong motion isolation and a quiet surface
-
Gentle, calming feel for lighter bodies
Who it is best for
-
Lightweight to average-weight side sleepers
-
People who want minimal partner disturbance
-
Guest rooms where comfort and simplicity matter
Where it falls short
-
Edges feel softer for sitting and edge sleep
-
Warmer feel than the coil-based options, especially for hot sleepers
-
Slower responsiveness if you change positions often
Pros & Cons:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Strong pressure relief | Slower turning response |
| Very quiet, low motion transfer | Softer edges for sitting |
| Comfortable for lighter side sleepers | Can sleep warmer than coil models |

| Cooling | 3.3 | Noticeable warmth buildup compared with the coil models |
| Pressure Relief | 4.4 | Best joint relief in the set, especially for side sleeping |
| Motion Isolation | 4.6 | The quietest surface; movement stays localized |

| Edge Support | 3.4 | Softer perimeter when sitting or sleeping near the edge |
| Durability | 3.7 | No early breakdown seen, but thin profile limits “buffer” feel |
| Overall | 3.9 | A comfort-first foam option with clear trade-offs |
Clarksville Euro Top
Our Testing Experience:
This one felt like the “starter-plus” bed: you lie down and immediately understand what it is. The surface is modestly padded, and then you meet the innerspring support pretty quickly. I liked it for back sleeping when I wanted a simpler, firmer baseline; it didn’t swallow me. Marcus found it stable, but he noticed more motion feedback than on the pocketed-coil models. Mia said it was okay for short side-sleep stretches, but after longer sessions her shoulder wanted more cushion. Ethan summed it up perfectly: easy to turn, but you feel more of what’s happening across the mattress.
What we liked
-
Straightforward support with a firmer-leaning feel
-
Easy movement and quick response
-
Strong value for kids’ rooms and occasional-use spaces
Who it is best for
-
Guest rooms and budget primary setups
-
Back sleepers who like a simpler feel
-
Kids/teens and lighter sleepers who don’t need deep cushioning
Where it falls short
-
Motion isolation is weaker than the foam model and pocketed-coil builds
-
Pressure relief is limited for sensitive shoulders/hips
-
Less “luxury” feel in the top layer
Pros & Cons:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Simple, supportive feel | More motion transfer |
| Easy turning and rebound | Limited pressure relief |
| Good value positioning | Less plush comfort layer depth |

Austin Medium and Prescott Firm are the most even performers overall, with Austin leaning “balanced comfort” and Prescott leaning “firm stability.” Charley wins pressure relief and motion isolation, but gives up cooling, edge strength, and turning ease. Clarksville is the value baseline: responsive and supportive, but clearly behind on motion and deeper cushioning.
How to Choose the Two Brothers Mattress?
Start with sleep position and body weight: lighter side sleepers usually need more pressure relief, while back/stomach sleepers benefit from a firmer, flatter surface. If you sleep hot, prioritize coil-based options; if partner movement wakes you, prioritize foam. For most households, Austin Medium is the safest all-around pick; choose Prescott Firm for firmer support or heavier bodies. For lightweight side sleepers and quiet guest-room comfort, pick Charley Memory Foam. For kids/teens or occasional-use value, Clarksville Euro Top fits.
Limitations
Across the brand’s value-focused models, the main trade-off is that you rarely get “specialty” performance (elite cooling, plush luxury depth, or premium edge reinforcement) at these price points. Charley is not ideal for hot sleepers or edge sitters; Clarksville is not ideal for couples sensitive to motion or side sleepers with tender shoulders; Prescott can feel too firm for lightweight side sleepers; Austin may feel not-plush-enough for people who want a deep hug.

Pro Tips for Two Brothers Mattress
-
Give any new mattress a consistent 2–3 week run before making a final comfort judgment.
-
If you’re between firmness preferences, pick based on your most sensitive joint (shoulder/hip vs. lower back).
-
For foam (Charley), use breathable sheets and a lighter comforter to reduce heat feel.
-
For coil builds (Austin/Prescott/Clarksville), ensure the foundation is flat and rigid to avoid false “softness.”
-
If you sit on the edge daily, prioritize models that tested best for edge support (Austin or Prescott).
-
If you toss and turn, prioritize responsiveness over plushness to avoid a stuck-in-foam feeling.
-
If you’re setting up a guest room, choose based on the widest comfort band (Austin) or simplest value (Clarksville).
-
Rotate the mattress periodically so the most-used zone doesn’t become the only “broken-in” zone.
-
If shoulder pressure is your issue, avoid firmer options unless you already know you like a firm surface.
-
Keep a mattress protector on from day one to preserve hygiene and reduce long-term wear.
FAQs
Which Two Brothers Mattress model is best for back pain concerns?
If your main issue is lower-back tightness from sitting, Prescott Firm usually keeps the hips more level, while Austin Medium balances lift and cushioning. If you’re a light side sleeper, Charley may feel better at the shoulder but less stable at the hips.
Which model is most couple-friendly for motion isolation?
Charley Memory Foam isolates motion best and stays very quiet. Austin Medium is the best coil-based compromise: it reduces partner disturbance without feeling slow or stuck when you reposition.
Which model is best for a guest room on a tight budget?
Clarksville Euro Top is the simplest value play for occasional use, especially for back sleepers. If your guests vary a lot in sleep position, Austin Medium is the safer “most people sleep fine on it” choice.
