Tiami Mattress Review: The Luxury Hybrid From Leesa’s Founders, With Perfect 10 Cooling and Motion Isolation Scores

Tiami Mattress Review: Cool, Quiet and Supportive Luxury, Designed for Couples and Hot Sleepers Tiami’s best-documented strength is exceptional cooling and motion isolation in a luxury hybrid. NapLab’s testing gave it a perfect 10/10 for cooling, 10/10 for motion transfer and 9.2 for edge support, for an overall 9.29, praising its “Perfect 10/10 for cooling, low level so motion transfer, and fast material responsiveness.” Customers echo that. One said “I’ve always slept hot. This mattress is so cool. How does it do that?”, another wrote “When my wife gets in or out of bed, I can’t feel a thing,” and a third said “The support has nearly cured my ever-present back pain.” Tiami was created by the founders of Leesa Sleep, one of the original online mattress brands, and it’s positioned as a design-forward luxury mattress, available to try at select Design Within Reach Studios. A portion of every purchase supports sleep-equity programs focused on women’s mental health, which Tiami calls a permanent part of its business. Tiami makes one mattress, the Tiami Hybrid, a 12-inch flat-top hybrid built in layers. An organic cotton cover (more than 90% organic cotton) sits on top. Below it, an Energex comfort layer gives gentle pushback and cooling, a memory foam recovery layer relieves aches, and free-floating poly foam cubes add targeted pressure relief. A double-pocketed coil support system (7-inch, 14-gauge coils), which Tiami says delivers 7x more airflow than standard designs, sits underneath, with 10-inch perimeter coils for advanced edge support that extends the usable sleep surface. NapLab rated its feel slightly firm at 7 out of 10, with minimal sinkage that creates a “floating” feel. Pricing is premium. NapLab lists Twin XL at about $1,292, Full $1,677, Queen $1,957 and King and California King $2,307, while Tiami’s site has shown a Queen at $2,096.50 on sale from $2,995. Tiami offers free delivery, a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty, and you can call a founder directly with questions. The honest caveat: Tiami offers only one firmness option, and its slightly firm, low-sinkage feel may not suit lighter side sleepers. NapLab said “The only sleeper group I’m more concerned by is lighter-weight side sleepers.” Low bounce reduced its intimacy score, its 100-night trial and 10-year warranty are below average for luxury mattresses, and it’s expensive. Independent customer reviews are limited, since most testimonials come from Tiami’s site.

Full Review Breakdown
Construction: Layer by Layer
Tiami’s 12-inch hybrid is engineered for cooling, support and quiet sleep. The organic cotton cover, more than 90% organic cotton, is soft and breathable, helping heat escape rather than trapping it. Beneath it, the Energex comfort layer provides gentle, responsive pushback and cooling, so you feel cushioned without sinking deeply. A memory foam recovery layer adds pressure relief for aches and pains, and free-floating poly foam cubes respond independently to different parts of your body, relieving pressure at the shoulders and hips. The support core uses a double-pocketed coil system with 7-inch, 14-gauge coils, which Tiami says provides 7x more airflow than standard designs while reducing motion transfer. Around the edges, 10-inch perimeter coils create strong edge support, so you can sleep or sit near the edge without feeling like you’ll roll off. One customer said “I can sleep on the edge and never feel like I’m going to fall off.”
Cooling and Motion Isolation
Cooling and motion isolation are Tiami’s standout strengths. NapLab gave it perfect 10/10 scores for both, praising its “Perfect 10/10 for cooling, low level so motion transfer, and fast material responsiveness.” Hot sleepers notice the difference. One customer said “I’ve always slept hot. This mattress is so cool,” and another couple said they’re “sleeping so much better and cooler.” For couples, motion isolation can transform sleep quality. One husband said “When my wife gets in or out of bed, I can’t feel a thing,” and another couple praised “Motion isolation is excellent.” That combination makes Tiami ideal for partners with different schedules, restless sleepers and anyone woken by a partner’s movements. Use breathable cotton or linen sheets and a thin, breathable mattress protector to preserve its cooling performance.
Firmness, Feel and Who It Suits
NapLab rated Tiami slightly firm, 7 out of 10, with testers scoring it between 6 and 7.5. It has minimal sinkage, about 1.66 inches, creating a “floating” on-top feel rather than a hugging, sink-in sensation. That makes it excellent for back and stomach sleepers who need their hips supported in line with their spine, and for side sleepers who like pushback and minimal sinkage. Customers with back pain are especially enthusiastic. One said it “nearly cured my ever-present back pain,” and another said it “melts away my pains and lower-back stiffness.” But Tiami offers only one firmness, and NapLab cautioned that lighter-weight side sleepers may find the extra support problematic, since they may not sink enough to relieve shoulder and hip pressure. Its low bounce also lowered NapLab’s intimacy score to 7.4. If you prefer a plush, cloud-like mattress, Tiami may feel too firm.
Price, Trial, Warranty and Value
Tiami is a luxury purchase. NapLab lists Twin XL at about $1,292, Full $1,677, Queen $1,957 and King and California King $2,307, while Tiami’s own site has shown the Queen at $2,096.50 on sale from $2,995. Free delivery is included, and you can try it in person at select Design Within Reach Studios, a big advantage for a premium online mattress. Tiami even lets you call a founder directly. Its 100-night trial and 10-year warranty, however, are shorter than many competitors, which offer 365-night trials and lifetime warranties, so read the trial and return terms carefully. Part of every purchase supports sleep-equity programs focused on women’s mental health. For couples, hot sleepers and back pain sufferers who want premium cooling, quiet and support, Tiami offers excellent performance for the price.
Products Worth Buying
Tiami Hybrid Mattress (Queen)
The most popular size for couples and the best way to experience Tiami’s strengths. The Queen delivers perfect 10/10 cooling and motion isolation in NapLab’s testing, so partners with different schedules, restless sleepers and hot sleepers can rest undisturbed. Its 12-inch hybrid construction combines an organic cotton cover, Energex cooling foam, memory foam, free-floating foam cubes and double-pocketed coils with 10-inch perimeter edge support. Its slightly firm 7/10 feel suits back, stomach and many combination sleepers, and customers with back pain praise its support. Lighter side sleepers should test it first at a Design Within Reach Studio. Pair it with breathable bedding to maximize cooling, and use the 100-night trial to confirm comfort.
Tiami Hybrid Mattress (King / California King)
The best choice for couples who want maximum personal space, families who share the bed with kids or pets, and taller sleepers who prefer the extra length of a California King. Tiami’s excellent motion isolation really shines in a larger size: one customer said “When my wife gets in or out of bed, I can’t feel a thing.” Strong 10-inch perimeter coils make the full surface usable right to the edges. Measure your bedroom and bed frame carefully, since King and California King dimensions differ. Use a sturdy, supportive foundation or platform base, and choose cooling sheets and a breathable protector to keep its 10/10 cooling performance intact.
Tiami Hybrid Mattress (Full / Twin XL)
Tiami’s smaller sizes bring the same luxury construction, cooling and support to single sleepers, guest rooms, teens and college dorms. The Twin XL is ideal for taller teens and dorm beds, while the Full suits solo sleepers who want extra room or smaller guest bedrooms. Because Tiami is slightly firm with minimal sinkage, it’s especially well suited to back and stomach sleepers and people with lower back pain who need consistent support. Lighter-weight side sleepers may want a softer mattress or a topper. Check bed frame compatibility, and remember the 100-night trial period when deciding. Try Tiami at Design Within Reach Studios — in-store experience One of Tiami’s most valuable perks is the ability to test the mattress in person at select Design Within Reach Studios before buying, rare for a premium online mattress brand. It’s especially useful because Tiami comes in only one firmness, so you can confirm whether its slightly firm, floating feel suits your sleeping position and body weight. Lie in your usual sleep position for at least 10 to 15 minutes, test the edges by sitting and lying near them, and bring your partner to check motion isolation together. If you have questions, Tiami even lets you call a founder directly. Ask about current promotions and free delivery when ordering.
What Customers Actually Think
I’ve always slept hot. This mattress is so cool. How does it do that?
When my wife gets in or out of bed, I can’t feel a thing. We both wake up well-rested.
Perfectly balanced — not too firm, not too soft. The support has nearly cured my ever-present back pain.
Perfect 10/10 for cooling, low level so motion transfer, and fast material responsiveness
The only sleeper group I’m more concerned by is lighter-weight side sleepers, as the extra support could be problematic.
Is It Worth It?
Yes, for couples, hot sleepers and back pain sufferers who want premium cooling, near-silent motion isolation and strong edge support. Tiami’s construction and lab scores are outstanding. Its single firmness and shorter trial are the risks, so test it at Design Within Reach if possible, especially if you’re a lighter side sleeper.

Final Verdict
Tiami is a thoughtfully engineered luxury hybrid from Leesa’s founders, combining an organic cotton cover, Energex cooling foam, free-floating foam cubes and double-pocketed coils into a mattress that sleeps exceptionally cool, isolates motion almost completely and supports the back beautifully. NapLab’s perfect cooling and motion scores, and enthusiastic customers, back that up. One firmness, a slightly firm floating feel that may not suit lighter side sleepers, a shorter trial and premium pricing are the trade-offs. Test it in a Design Within Reach Studio if you can. For couples and hot sleepers, Tiami is one of the best luxury hybrids available. Scorecard
