Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System Review

by Sleep Sherpa Sleep Expert


The Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System is a three-layer, all latex mattress system.  For this review, I received a free plush version of the mattress since it can be hard to achieve a plush feel with an all latex mattress. I was excited to review this mattress because there aren’t as many all latex mattresses available online and this one comes in at a competitive price after discounts. Right now a queen size retails for $1,756 after the 20% off discount on their site. Although that’s considerably more than a typical foam mattress, you can expect a much longer lifespan and the peace of mind knowing you are sleeping on natural materials.

You also get a 100 night, risk-free trial where you can sleep on it in the comfort of your own home and if you aren’t happy with it during that time, it’s a free return. You also can do a free comfort exchange which means if you like the construction and feel of the mattress but it may be too soft or firm, Luma will exchange it for a better fit, for free. That’s still not very typical with an all latex mattress. You also get free white glove delivery which means it will be brought into your home and set up for free.

Overview of the Luma Sleep Latex Slumber System

Here’s an overview of the system and what you can expect upon opening and setup. Note that the pillow top will come in a separate box.

Construction of the Luma Mattress

Luma Latex Construction

The mattress with the pillow top measures 11 inches deep. The construction is as follows.

2 inch natural latex pillow top (option for Talalay latex for extra cost)

2 inch natural latex transition layer

6 inch zoned dunlop latex core

 

How Much Does the Luma Latex Slumber System Cost?

Below are the prices of the Luma Latex as of this writing. For an extra $60 you can have a Talalay latex pillow top instead of dunlop.

 

My Luma Latex Slumber SystemFindings

If you have never slept on latex, I would urge you to give it a try. Especially if you find memory foam too slow to recover. The reason latex is more expensive is that it takes more time to produce but you just can’t replicate the feel with memory foam or springs. Everyone is different when it comes to their preference for sleep materials but I have found most people will appreciate the feel of latex at the right firmness.

The plush model I tried contours well for side sleeping and will work well for back sleeping. Stomach sleepers may want to look at the medium for firm.

Luma Sleep Contouring

A latex mattress like this one isn’t going to have as good of edge support as a spring system because you really can’t zone out the edge to make it firm so if you like sleeping right up to the edge this may take some getting used to.

The reason this mattress is constructed to have a latex topper as the comfort layer is to reduce the impact of returns. If you find it too firm or soft, Luma can send out a firmer or softer topper to make it easier to adjust and lessen the environmental impact. It’s also much easier to exchange the topper rather than the whole mattress.

I found this mattress to be temperature neutral. It didn’t trap heat like a foam mattress. That’s largely because of the stretch knit cover and the latex underneath that has holes throughout that allow for airflow.

My Luma Mattress Recommendation

The Luma Latex Slumber System is a great introduction to latex mattresses. Especially when you consider the fact that you get a 100-night trial and the option for a comfort exchange if you like the overall feel but may want to tweak the firmness. Aside from latex being a renewable material, it’s also comfortable, offers great pressure relief and support and is resilient so changing positions at night is easy.
