The Beautyrest Black C-Class Collection is the mid-range in the brand, and it has five mattresses. This is the new Beautyrest Black C-Class mattress collection. It offers more comfort layers and cooling technology inside the top of the mattress compared to the previous C-Class collection. In addition to the C-Class Collection, there are three more collections positioned above this one in all of the Beautyrest Black collections, the L-Class, K-Class, and X-Class.
The C-Class is one of four available Collections from Beautyrest Black. You can view all the collection comparisons and details.
K-Class - Top of the line with” SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam and a layer of micro coils.
X-Class Collection - Mid-range hybrids with AirCool Memory Foam and pocketed coils.
C-Class - Mid-range with SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam.
L-Class - Entry-level.
The C-Class Collection is consistent with all Beautyrest Black beds in that they are innerspring mattresses. They have what they call the Zoned T3 Pocketed Coil which is the latest design from Beautyrest, and they've been using pocketed coils forever. There is now a firm mattress available in this collection. This collection has everything from a firm mattress to a plush pillow top mattress.
All five mattresses in this collection share 3 important features shared in all Beautyrest Black mattresses.
All of the mattresses use the Zoned T3 Pocketed Coil design spring system. The design of this coil is the most advanced by Beautyrest and they only offer it on their luxury Black mattresses.
Also, these mattresses use a foam layer called BlackIce with Plant-Based Technology on the top of the mattress. This material is the latest in cooling technology, if you put your hand on the mattress you can actually feel the cooling nature. A cool mattress is crucial to sleeping well especially if you are a hot sleeper.
And lastly, Beautyrest includes a lot of premium foams in the construction of the mattresses. The four models in the C-Class collection have layers of foams arranged in order and quantities to make each mattress feel and serve a different purpose. The mattresses range in height from 13 3/4" to 16".
The C-Class stands above the lower L-Class because the C-Class has a layer of SurfaceTouch™ Memory Foam. This formulation is new to Beautyrest and is only available on the C-Class or more expensive K-Class mattresses. This material is better because it also helps to maintain a cool sleeping environment to promote a better night's rest.

Here are the reviews for the models in the C-Class collection.
Beautyrest Black C-Class mattresses can be purchased from approved stores and online retailers. They are not available factory direct from Beautyrest Black. They’re shipped uncompressed and are delivered by home delivery services. Delivery is free to your front door or you can pay a fee for in-home setup and the removal of an old existing mattress.
The Beautyrest Black C-Class Collection is the mid-range in the brand, and it has five mattresses.
These mattresses use the BlackICE 4.0 with plant-basic cooling technology which lies just beneath the surface to enhance heat dissipation.
The new models use SurfaceTouch Gel Memory Foam as well as Alpaca, Cashmere, and Silk Fibers in the comfort layers.
Beautyrest Black is a brand produced by Simmons Mattress Company, which has been a leader in mattress manufacturing for over 100 years. Their Beautyrest Black luxury brand has been sold for many years. As for the parent company Simmons, many people remember the “bowling ball” commercial where a bowling ball was dropped on a mattress to highlight their pocketed coils (a glass of wine would sit undisturbed when the ball bounced on the other side of the bed.)
In recent years Simmons merged with Serta into the Serta Simmons Bedding Company, making them one of the two largest mattress companies in the world (TempurSealy is the other.) Simmons now markets the Black, Platinum, Harmony Lux, and Silver mattress collections.
Being a large manufacturer, Simmons engineers and makes many of its own components in addition to manufacturing. With their longevity and size, they have accumulated a lot of experience and knowledge in making mattresses. Simmons makes millions of mattresses each year and they’ve maintained a positive reputation over the long run. While some review sites call out consumer complaints, those sites fail to provide the context that there are tens of millions of customers sleeping on Beautyrest mattresses. And all taken altogether Simmons Beautyrest has a highly positive customer reputation.
The C-Class hits the sweet spot in the Beautyrest Black Collection of mattresses. It has new SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam, which helps to keep the mattress cool so you can sleep better (a cool bed is important for better sleep, a hot mattress can make it hard for you to sleep.) Whether you like a firm or plush mattress, this collection of luxury mattresses provides cushioning that helps with pressure relief and back pain for the back sleepers, side sleepers, and stomach sleepers. This collection has comfortable materials from the top layer to the bottom no matter what your sleeping position is.
These five mattresses give you a choice of firm or soft or adding a softer pillow top. The pillow top models are quite tall at 16 inches. This gives you an indication of the number of foam layers they include in their beds, which in part, can help you understand and justify their higher price points.
Beautyrest Black is a dominant luxury brand in the mattress world. They are made with high-quality, premium materials. In addition, they include the most recent and most advanced materials available in mattresses (like SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam and Zoned T3 Pocketed Coils.) The beds aren't cheap so that can be a limiting factor if your budget can't stretch that far. If not, the L-Class offers slightly better prices and makes a good alternative choice for you.
