The Beautyrest Black C-Class Medium Pillowtop is a great, all-around luxury mattress. It's the sister model to the softer "Plush" Pillowtop model. It's priced at $3,499 (queen-size) which denotes it's a luxury bed, and we've outlined the features in our review below.
The C-Class Medium Pillowtop mattress has a medium, mid-range comfort feel; we rate it a 6 on our 10 point Comfort Scale (a 1 is hard, 10 is softest.) Since this mattress is a medium feeling bed, it will appeal to most people unless you prefer a softer bed (or a very firm bed.)
Here’s our quick C-Class Medium Pillowtop Video Review. It highlights the features, benefits, and our impression.

We tested the C-Class Medium Pillowtop mattress and will publish our results soon. We tested it with petite, average, and large body size people on their side and back sleeping positions to see what kind of support and comfort you can expect. (Learn how we test.)
A medium-feeling pillowtop mattress like this one is generally a good comfort that is preferred by most people no matter their body shape or sleep position. This bed is highly recommended to most people as its comfort and support would be ideal for almost everyone. However, during testing, we did discover that the C-Class Medium Pillowtop is not recommended for large people who sleep on their sides. The bright red area shown on the image below shows that this bed causes significant pressure on the shoulder which would lead to tossing and turning throughout the night.
Please review our test results presented below in your decision-making if you're considering this mattress for your next bed:
The pressure test results for this mattress are not yet available but it will be available soon. Below is just an example.

This layer is 100% natural and will help wick away moisture and enhance the cooling features within the mattress.
Arguably the best comfort foam in mattresses, latex provides superior pressure relief for less tossing and turning while pushing back against the body for a more supportive feel. Anti-microbial and anti-dustmite properties contribute to a healthier sleep environment.
Exclusive to Beautyrest Black, this coil works to provide individualized back support, ease of movement, and pressure point relief throughout the night.
This durable foam utilized below the coil unit helps create a supportive, durable foundation for the no-flip mattress design.
Compared to the old model, the new C-Class Medium Pillow uses SurfaceTouch Gel Memory Foam as well as Alpaca, Cashmere, and Silk Fibers in the comfort layers. You can compare the old model here.

This mattress uses the BlackICE 4.0 with plant-basic cooling technology which lies just beneath the surface to enhance heat dissipation.
The Black C-Class Medium Pillowtop is very similar to the Plush Pillowtop model with the same prices and features. The only difference is this model has a 2" GelTouch Foam instead of 3" of Beautyrest Gel Memory Foam. This subtle difference gives the Medium model a medium feel, not as soft as the other bed. With the exception of larger people who sleep on their sides, this bed is recommended for most people.
It has the same key features as all Beautyrest Black beds: BlackICE cooling material and the Zoned T3 Pocketed Coils. It also has GelTouch Foam which is an advanced cooling and conforming foam. It is an advanced, premium foam in C-Class and K-Class models.
At a queen price of $3,499, it's not a cheap bed and it's not something most people can afford. However, it does offer good value for the price if you are shopping in this price range. The premium cooling materials, the comforting and conforming foams, and the advanced pocketed coil design are all worthy features.
