Ashley Chime Elite 12 Inch Memory Foam Firm Mattress Review

Updated November 10, 2022

The Elite 12 Inch Memory Foam Firm mattress is a medium-firm feeling bed-in-a-box by Ashley Mattress. It's one of the middle-height firm memory foam mattresses in the Chime collection, which range from 8" up to 14" in thickness. The taller the bed, the more foam in the mattress, which adds durability and comfort. We’ve tested and reviewed this bed to help you make an educated choice:

Comfort Scale Rating

At 3.5 out of 10 on our Comfort Scale (a 1 is hard, 10 is softest) the Chime Elite 12 Inch Memory Foam Firm mattress gives you a medium-firm feel. If a softer-feeling bed is something that you’d prefer then another mattress would be a better choice. This mattress is good for those who want a firm mattress that's not overly hard.

Pressure Test Results

We've pressure-tested the Chime Elite 12 Inch Memory Foam Firm mattress with petite, average, and sized people we found hanging around our front office. We had them lay on their side and back sleeping positions to see what kind of support and comfort you can expect. (Learn how we test.) 

This mattress earned a 'recommended' score for most of the body types and sleeping positions, it really performed well. Pressure relief is very important for an undisturbed night's sleep because excess pressure will wake you up from the discomfort and you'll have to roll around in bed until you find another comfortable spot.

Proper spinal alignment/side support is just as central to quality sleep because lack of support will cause discomfort up to, and including lower back pain.  The test results confirm that this bed gives everyone excellent contouring support and great pressure relief.
