The Full size Simmons Beautyrest Silver Lydia Manor III Luxury Firm Pillow Top is part of the third generation of the Lydia Manor model, and it features significant improvements from the previous Lydia Manor II. This mattress has a firm Comfort Scale score of 3, and is an excellent option for back sleepers and stomach sleepers looking for a bit of initial padding with solid underlying support. Side sleepers will most likely want to check out the Lydia Manor III Plush or Plush Pillow Top to ensure good pressure relief and spinal alignment.

Improvements from the previous generation of the Lydia Manor begin right in the quilt with the new DualCool Technology Fiber, an ultra soft fiber enhanced with silver that helps move heat away from the body and prevents mildew, odor-causing bacteria, and mold for fresher, cooler comfort. A layer of AirCool Foam utilizes an innovative channeled surface design to promote airflow throughout the mattress while contouring to the body. Over 3 inches of Comfort Foam is included to ensure a firm level of comfort that contours well to the lower back. Another newly added feature is a layer of GelTouch, a soft gel foam that provides soothing comfort with exceptional surface contouring and conformability. This gel also helps promote deeper REM sleep and good blood circulation. Another upgrade from the previous generation of the Lydia Manor is the addition of the innovative BackCare Support Coil System. Utilizing hundreds of micro coils to reinforce the center third of the mattress, the BackCare Support System promotes better back support and helps the mattress resist sagging. A full layer of AirCool Gel Memory Foam provides great pressure relief to reduce tossing and turning, and it also aids in dampening motion transfer when movement occurs. Critical back support is provided through the Beautyrest Pocketed Coil System, an individually pocketed system in which high carbon steel coils closely conform to the curves of your body while providing solid support. A 4-inch foam-encased, ventilated edge support system enhances airflow while ensuring uniform comfort from edge to edge.

In summary, if you are an individual who prefers a firm mattress with plenty of space and a touch of softness on top, the Full size Beautyrest Silver Lydia Manor III Luxury Firm Pillow Top is a great choice. In an industry where only small improvements from previous models is typical, the Lydia Manor III stands out since it has been improved in nearly every way over the Lydia Manor II.
