Expert Review by Jed
The California King size Beautyrest Silver Lydia Manor III Plush is part of the third generation of the Lydia Manor model, and it includes many significant improvements from the previous second generation model. It has a score of 8 on our Comfort Scale, demonstrating that it is one of the softest models available in the Beautyrest collection this year. For this reason, I recommend it to side sleepers looking for outstanding pressure relief and to back sleepers who enjoy comfort that is enveloping yet supportive. If you’re a stomach sleeper, then you will almost certainly want to search for a firmer mattress, like the Lydia Manor III Luxury Firm or Luxury Firm Pillow Top, to ensure proper spinal alignment.

Improvements start right at the top with the DualCool Technology Fiber, a super soft fiber enhanced with silver that helps move heat away from the body and prevents mold, mildew and odor-causing bacteria to create a cooler, fresher sleeping space. Comfort layers include a layer of AirFeel Foam, an open cell foam designed to move more air through the mattress, and an expertly crafted layer of GelTouch Foam, a soft gel foam that provides excellent surface contouring, conformability, and comfort. These foams work with one another to help soothe pressure points, and they also help prevent tossing and turning. Another improvement to the Lydia Manor III is the expertly engineered BackCare Support Coil System. This system contains hundreds of micro coils that reinforce the center third of the mattress, ensuring the mattress resists sagging and providing additional support to the lower back area. A full sheet of AirCool Gel Memory Foam enhances pressure relief, isolates transfer of motion, and promotes deeper REM sleep. Critical support to the back area is provided by the tried and true Beautyrest Pocketed Coil System. Made using high carbon steel, this system contours well while providing support that is solid. The system is compatible with an adjustable base, and it is beneficial for couples since it transfers very little motion when movement occurs to ensure both people remain undisturbed. The last upgrade from the previous version is the 4-inch ventilated, foam-encased edge support system. This edge system ensures that you can sleep comfortably all the way from edge to edge of the mattress.

In summary, the California King size Simmons Beautyrest Silver Lydia Manor III Plush is a great mattress with plenty of space for couples, and it represents a fantastic step forward in the line. The edge support, quilt, comfort layers, and coil count have all been significantly upgraded from the previous Lydia Manor II, making an already excellent mattress even better.
