Who We Recommend the Botanical Bliss For:
- Sleepers who want more bounce – These quick-responding latex layers have a lot of bounce both at the surface and base level that helps with repositioning, so you should not ever feel like you are stuck. However, unlike some innerspring beds, this bounce remains localized and should not disturb your partner.
- Eco-friendly shoppers – This product has received environmental certifications, such as OEKO-TEX® and GREENGUARD Gold, which means the materials have been rigorously tested for harmful levels of dangerous chemicals.
- Folks who overheat – Latex does a great job resisting body heat, and PlushBeds has aerated the layers in this model for even more airflow.
Who We Don’t Recommend the Botanical Bliss For:
- Those who prefer a memory foam feel – Latex is a naturally-derived foam, but it doesn’t give the same sinking feeling many people associate with memory foam. This can be great for sleepers looking for more firmness and pushback support.
- Budget shoppers – This mattress was built with a lot of premium natural materials, including certified organic latex, cotton, and wool. While we appreciate the premium quality of these products, their inclusion does make this bed less of an ideal mattress for budget shoppers.
First Impressions: Firmness & Feel
Firmness Scale: 5/10 (Medium)
Please remember that firmness is a subjective characteristic and your shape will dictate how you experience a bed. A heavier person whose weight can more easily push through softer comfort and support layers may experience a bed as softer than a lightweight person. The way you are shaped could also play a role here. Consider your weight, shape, and size when evaluating firmness scores.
A big factor when considering purchasing a mattress is its firmness. Mattress firmness reflects how soft or firm the bed feels when you lie on top of it, and we rate mattress firmness on a 1-10 scale with 10 being the most firm.
We rated the Botanical Bliss’s firmness level a 5 out of 10, which means that this mattress hits right in the middle of our scale. Considering that this bed has a medium feel, many sleepers should find this mattress comfortable. However, some sleepers, like heavyweight folks and stomach sleepers (two groups who typically need more support) may find this mattress too soft. PlushBeds also offers a medium-firm option that falls a bit higher on the firmness scale (more like a 6 out of 10) which may suit these sleepers better.
How Does It Feel?
When you first lie down on this mattress, you’ll notice the soft-to-the-touch cotton knit cover. You’ll also immediately notice the soft, contouring Talalay latex that’s quickly followed by the springiness of the Dunlop latex which lies underneath. As you sink further down, you should feel the Botanical Bliss conforming to your curves without hugging you too tightly.
What We Like About the Botanical Bliss
- Toxin-free materials – This mattress is made entirely of eco-friendly and toxin-free materials.
- Isolates motion – The latex used in the Botanical Bliss does a great job of limiting motion transfer from one sleep mate to the other.
- Sleeps cool – Already naturally breathable, the latex material is further aerated with tiny holes for even more airflow, while the breathable cotton and wool wick away moisture.
Our Botanical Bliss Complaints
- High price point – Although the premium, non-toxic materials used can help justify this cost, the Botanical Bliss is definitely expensive.
- Unsupportive for heavyweight sleepers – Folks who weigh more are likely to find that the medium firmness is too soft. Heavyweight sleepers may push through the layers and bottom out to the bottom for an overall unsupportive sleep experience.
- May not be easy to move or set-up – This mattress is made with layers of dense latex materials that make it heavy. It may be difficult to move this mattress on your own.
Testing the Botanical Bliss: How it Performed
We tested the Botanical Bliss for side, stomach and back sleepers to better understand which sleep positions that this mattress is best suited for. Body weight can also affect how you experience a mattress so we made sure to consider this factor as well. Additionally, our testers examined qualities such as: supportiveness, responsiveness, motion isolation, temperature regulation, and how well it performs for couples.
Sleeping Positions for Different Body Types
The Botanical Bliss can support between 225-275 pounds per side depending on the thickness level chosen. That’s about 500 pounds for the entire mattress, so heavyweight couples may need a mattress with a higher weight capacity for better support.
| Weight | Side Sleepers | Back Sleepers | Stomach Sleepers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lightweight Sleepers (-130 lbs) | ★★★ | ★★☆ | ★★★ |
| Average-Weight Sleepers (130-230 lbs) | ★★★ | ★★☆ | ★★☆ |
| Heavyweight Sleepers (+230 lbs) | ★☆☆ | ★☆☆ | ★☆☆ |
Side Sleepers
- Lightweight Sleepers – The soft comfort latex layers conform to a lightweight sleeper’s curves and helps to relieve pressure on the small joints of their shoulders and hips.
- Average Weight Sleepers – Average-weight side sleepers should appreciate the soft upper layers of latex that provide pressure relief, gently cradling the hips and shoulders.
- Heavyweight Sleepers – Heavyweight side sleepers may not receive the support they need from this mattress as they will likely push through the soft layers quickly which could cause pressure buildup.
Back Sleepers
- Lightweight Sleepers – Lighter back sleepers should enjoy how the soft latex layers cradle them while also supporting healthy spine alignment.
- Average Weight Sleepers – While most average-weight back sleepers should feel well-supported by this bed, some may find this bed too soft to provide adequate lumbar support.
- Heavyweight Sleepers – The softness of this latex mattress may cause heavyweight back sleepers to sink too far into this mattress, leading to spine misalignment.
Stomach Sleepers
- Lightweight Sleepers – Folks who are more petite should find that they are gently cradled and that their hips are supported so that they don’t sag.
- Average Weight Sleepers – Although some average-weight sleepers may feel that the Botanical Bliss mattress provides adequate support for their hips, some sleepers in this group may not receive the necessary support to keep their hips from sagging.
- Heavyweight Sleepers – For most heavyweight stomach sleepers this mattress is too soft to keep their hips raised and spine aligned.
Pressure Relief & Pain
Considering that latex is known to relieve pressure, the all-latex Botanical Bliss does an excellent job when it comes to pressure relief. Latex provides a similar cradling sensation as memory foam without making you feel trapped in its layers. This helps provide pressure relief while also making it easy to reposition and get comfortable in any sleep position.
Back Pain – The latex layers should provide plenty of contouring support that help sleepers wake free of pain in their back. However, some average-weight to heavyweight sleepers may want a firmer mattress for greater support and spine alignment.
Hip Pain – Since latex does such an excellent job of relieving pressure, the PlushBeds should alleviate hip pain for most sleepers. The material contours around the hips, cradling it just enough for pressure relief without sacrificing support.
Shoulder Pain – Similar to hip pain, shoulder pain should be a thing of the past with the PlushBed’s latex construction. While some sleepers may sink too far into this mattress – which can cause pressure buildup — most should find they’re able to get the support and relief they need.
Support
If a mattress is too soft, your body may sink through the layers and leave your spine in an unnatural position. This can lead to chronic back pain and prevent you from getting a good night’s rest. Adequate support promotes a neutral spine and is especially important for those who sleep on their stomach or back.
The Botanical Bliss has layers of softer latex near the surface and firmer latex at the base. This allows for good pressure relief on the surface, while the denser foams at the bottom provide good pushback support for the spine. This is especially important for heavier folks who find they bottom out on traditional all-foam beds. Heavyweight sleepers looking for even greater support may want to opt for the medium-firm PlushBeds model.
Motion Transfer
In general, foam beds perform better in this category than innerspring mattresses, and memory beds typically score the highest. Though not as adept as traditional memory foam, the all-latex Botanical Bliss does an excellent job isolating motion. Light sleepers who share their sleep space with a partner who changes positions a lot should sleep undisturbed in this bed.
Temperature Regulation / Cooling
Latex is a naturally cooling material, so hot sleepers should be pretty pleased with the cooling abilities of the Botanical Bliss. The latex is also aerated and topped with breathable cotton and wool to wick away moisture and promote temperature-regulating airflow.
Performance for Couples
Couples who share a bed often pay attention to factors like bounce and motion isolation. The latex makeup of the Botanical Bliss bed provides excellent bounce. This means that couples can reposition themselves easily without feeling stuck. Sexually-active couples should also appreciate this quality. Finally, this mattress’s cooling and motion-isolating properties make this bed a good choice for most couples, although some may prefer the dual-firmness option which provides a medium feel on one side and a medium-firm sensation on the other.

Preference-based Features
Multiple Firmness Options
The Botanical Bliss model is available in Medium or Medium-Firm comfort levels that are each available in three different thicknesses: 9-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inch. The internal layers can be switched around to change the feel and level of firmness.
At-home Customization
The company offers a 100-night in-home comfort exchange for a small refundable deposit, so you can swap out the top layer for either a softer or firmer feel.
Optional White Glove Delivery
When you order your mattress, PlushBeds sends you information about local contractors they have partnered with who can assist with assembly and/or removal of your old mattress for a nominal fee.
Bed-in-a-box
Botanical Bliss is a bed-in-a-box that is built to order and delivered directly to your front door. The King and California King sizes may arrive in two separate boxes due to weight restrictions and require some assemblage.
High Bounce
Latex is a much bouncier material than traditional memory foam. This can be helpful for assisting repositioning in sleepers with limited mobility. It also means you should never feel stuck in the mattress.
Eco-Conscious Materials
The PlushBeds brand was founded with the goal of creating eco-conscious and toxin-free products that are healthier for people and the planet. This bed has multiple certifications around eco-friendly materials, including organic latex, cotton, and wool.
Adjustable Base Compatible
Handcrafted in the USA
Construction: What’s Inside the PlushBeds Botanical Bliss?
The cover is made from GOTS-certified organic cotton which helps to provide moisture absorption and unrestricted airflow. Cotton is also known for its breathability, and the organic certification provides peace of mind that it’s sustainably created without pesticides or herbicides.
Botanical Bliss offers different comfort levels (Medium and Medium-Firm), as well as three thickness options (9-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inches). These options allow you to change up the dimensions, layering, and specifications, which provides a customized bed that’s best suited to your needs. Let’s review the layers of the 9-inch Botanical Bliss.
- Beneath the cover lies a layer of GOTS-certified organic New Zealand wool. Wool offers exceptional temperature control and breathability, helping your body maintain a comfortable temperature all night long. This is followed by a cotton panel to help prevent the wool from shifting.
- The first layer includes three inches of Talalay Latex, a material that’s designed to gently contour to the sleeper and foster pressure relief. The immediate response and bounce help make repositioning easy, and the plush quality caters well to sensitive areas like the hips and shoulders.
- The support core of this bed is made up of 6 inches of dense Dunlop latex. This firm foundation provides great support as the body sinks into the deeper layers.
On the 12-inch model, you’ll get an additional 3 inches of latex foam in the middle of the mattress.
Unboxing & Off-Gassing
The Botanical Bliss mattress arrives rolled and compressed in a box. It is a fairly heavy mattress so you may want to solicit the help of a friend or family member to help you move it. Once it is out of the box and positioned, the mattress starts to take shape. Although you may notice a slight off-gassing smell, it is generally not very pungent with the Botanical Bliss, thanks in large part because this bed is made from latex.
Certifications
- Eco-Friendly Certifications – This mattress has multiple certifications, including OEKO-TEX®, which evaluates textiles for acceptable levels of hazardous chemicals and flame retardants at all processing levels. It also holds a GREENGUARD Gold certification, reflecting the world’s most rigorous emissions standards, eco-INSTITUT® certification, signifying low levels of hazardous chemicals, and other certifications from Control Union and Forest Stewardship Council.
- Certified Natural Materials – The materials also hold multiple certifications including USDA certified organic cotton, wool, and latex. The latex is certified by GOLS, and the cotton and wool are GOTS-certified.

Overall Summary
The PlushBeds Botanical Bliss latex bed is packed with natural materials – from the cover to the foundation – that provide an organic, pressure-relieving sleep experience.
Side Sleepers
5/5
Side sleepers are the most prone to developing pressure points because they sleep with their weight concentrated on a smaller surface area. This mattress has a softer comfort layer that is designed to conform to curves and relieve pressure.
Back Sleepers
4/5
Back sleepers should feel the comfort layer conform to and support their lumbar region, while the supportive base layer works on holding their spine straight. While the Medium may work well for lighter back sleepers, average to heavier folks may find that the Medium is too soft to provide support.
Stomach Sleepers
4/5
Stomach sleepers need a bed with good support to keep their hips from sinking too low and holding their spine at an awkward angle. Most lighter stomach sleepers should feel supported by the Medium, but heavyweight sleepers may find the brand’s Medium-Firm model a better fit.
Combination Sleepers
5/5
Moving around on the surface should not be difficult because of latex’s natural bounce and the denser support layer. Combination sleepers, who like to alternate between sleep positions, should enjoy the versatility of the Botanical Bliss.
Couples
3/5
This bed is exceptionally designed in all the areas that are important for couples. The materials naturally excel in wicking away moisture and regulating temperature. The latex is also known for isolating motion while still providing optimal bounce.
Heavy Sleepers
3/5
Latex is known for its durability, so the foam shouldn’t break down as quickly as memory foam under heavier weight. However, most heavy sleepers may find the Medium is too soft regardless of sleeping position. Those who weigh more than 230 pounds may want to consider the 12-inch Firm model that has the most support and durability.
Lightweight Sleepers
5/5
Individuals under 120 pounds should be very pleased with the Medium since it allows them to sink in deeply enough to achieve pressure relief and cradling support. This mattress should be suitable for all sleeping positions, but stomach and back sleepers can experiment with switching the top and middle layers for a little extra support.
Average Weight Sleepers
4/5
Side sleepers of average weight should enjoy the pressure-relieving properties of the Botanical Bliss mattress. The soft upper latex foam layers should conform to the curves of the sleeper’s body and provide relief to shoulders and hips. Average-weight back sleepers should also appreciate how the latex supports their lower back.
Overall Value
4/5
The Botanical Bliss is stacked top to bottom with some of the highest-quality latex on the market, and its top-notch comfort and durable support make it a great value. Natural latex is a worthwhile investment that can last longer than other mattress materials, but the company also offers a lifetime warranty for an even better guarantee of this bed’s lifespan.
Our Verdict
The PlushBeds Botanical Bliss is a durable mattress made from high quality, eco-conscious materials. The latex should conform nicely to many sleepers curves, which helps relieve pressure around the shoulders and hips.
We believe that combination sleepers and those who co-sleep should benefit the most from this mattress’s bouncy feel. Hot sleepers should also like this bed’s cooling properties, while lightweight and average-weight sleepers should appreciate the Botanical Bliss’s balance of comfort and support.
However, although we feel this mattress is appropriately priced, given the quality of the materials used and the durable craftsmanship, it’s likely too expensive for budget shoppers.
