Casper vs. Loom & Leaf: Firmness & Feel Differences
Read more about the firmness and feel differences between the Casper and Loom & Leaf in this section.
What’s the Firmness Of the Casper & Loom & Leaf Mattresses?
The Casper mattress is considered medium-firm. This level of firmness does a great job of providing both pressure relief and support that suits every sleeping position. Meanwhile, the Loom & Leaf comes in two firmness levels: Relaxed Firm and Firm. The Relaxed Firm is a medium-firm bed that will suit most back or side sleepers. Meanwhile, the Firm option is extra firm which is a great option for back or stomach sleepers.
What Do the Casper & Loom & Leaf Mattresses Feel Like?
The Casper’s comfort layer is an incredibly soft and responsive polyfoam that provides immediate comfort and light contouring that works well for back, stomach, and side sleepers. In contrast, the Loom & Leaf has a contouring feel that memory foam lovers are used to.
What’s It Like to Sleep On the Casper & Loom & Leaf Mattresses?
Lightweight and average-weight people would find ergonomic support for the lower spine and the shoulders when sleeping on the Casper mattress. Similarly, the Loom & Leaf is ideal for a comfortable snooze throughout the night, especially for those who suffer from back pain, and can support anyone from lightweight to heavyweight people.
The Casper vs. Loom & Leaf Mattresses By Body Type
Casper Performance By Body Type & Sleeping Position:
| Body Type: | BACK SLEEPERS | STOMACH SLEEPERS | SIDE SLEEPERS |
| Lightweight (< 130 lbs): | 5 | 4 | 4 |
| Average-weight (130–230 lbs): | 5 | 3 | 5 |
| Heavyweight (> 230 lbs): | 3 | 2 | 2 |
Loom & Leaf Performance By Body Type & Sleeping Position:
| Body Type: | BACK SLEEPERS | STOMACH SLEEPERS | SIDE SLEEPERS |
| Lightweight (< 130 lbs): | 5 | 5 | 3 |
| Average-weight (130–230 lbs): | 5 | 5 | |
| Heavyweight (> 230 lbs): | 4 | 3 | 4 |
1 = Very poor, 2 = Not good, 3 = Fair, 4 = Good, 5 = Excellent
Average-Weight Sleepers (130–230 lbs)
The Casper mattress provides excellent comfort for average-weight back sleepers and side sleepers. It keeps the hips and neck in line while also protecting pressure points such as the shoulders, hips, and lower parts of the back. The Loom & Leaf mattress, on the other hand, is great for average-weight stomach sleepers and back sleepers. It is firm enough to prevent excess hip sinkage while still experiencing decent support and spine alignment.
Heavyweight Sleepers (> 230 lbs)
Heavyweight stomach sleepers and side sleepers might not get the proper spine alignment and comfortable pressure relief they need on the Casper mattress. However, heavyweight back sleepers and side sleepers will experience great support and prevent pressure on the lower back and hips from the Firm version of the Loom & Leaf mattress.
Lightweight Sleepers (< 130 lbs)
Lightweight back sleepers can look forward to the Casper mattress, especially when you’re looking for one that fills in the small of your back. Combination sleepers who move around often throughout the night are a good fit for the Casper mattress. Meanwhile, lightweight back sleepers and stomach sleepers are suitable for the Loom & Leaf mattress thanks to its firmness. Lightweight side sleepers may experience some discomfort from the Loom & Leaf but should still experience enough spine alignment.

Comfort Layers
Casper’s proprietary Airscape foam is soft, delivering a generous cushion along the mattress surface. Loom & Leaf comfort layer is made of memory foam infused with cooling gel and perforated for better airflow.

Casper vs. Loom & Leaf Mattress Performance Ratings & Differences
The Casper 4.8/5
The Casper Original mattress is an all-foam bed that pairs plush polyfoam with Zoned Support memory foam for excellent pressure relief and body alignment. The Casper Original provides comfort for back, stomach, side, and combination sleepers who weigh less than 230 lbs, and its motion isolation makes it good for couples.
The Loom & Leaf 4.0/5
The Loom & Leaf by Saatva focused squarely on dethroning Tempur-Pedic as the main name in memory foam mattresses. Of all of the direct-to-consumer mattresses we’ve tried, the Loom & Leaf feels the most like Tempur-Pedic and at a fraction of the price.
Temperature
Foam beds tend to retain heat more than hybrid or innerspring beds, so the Casper and Loom & Leaf tend to sleep a little warm. Still, this will only be an issue for those who sleep really hot at night. If you’re choosing between the two, we think Loom & Leaf stays a little cooler, probably because of the cooling gel in the top layer.
Motion Transfer
All-foam mattresses typically reduce motion transfer better than hybrid and innerspring mattresses, so it’s no surprise that the Casper and Loom & Leaf mattresses both keep motion transfer to a minimum. Even so, we think the Casper does a slightly better job in this category.
Edge Support
Neither Casper nor Loom & Leaf have any edge support features. Still, we felt supported on the edges of both mattresses, though we sunk a little lower into the Loom & Leaf.
Pressure Relief
The Casper and relaxed firm Loom & Leaf provide a similar amount of pressure relief. We think that the Loom & Leaf is a little more effective at cushioning your shoulders and hips, but it’s pretty close. The firm Loom & Leaf has enough pressure relief for stomach sleepers and lightweight or average-weight back sleepers, but not side sleepers.
Pain Relief
The Casper is one of the best beds for lightweight and average-weight people with back pain. With a soft comfort layer that cushions the body and a Zoned Support transition layer, the Casper is designed to keep the spine properly supported in every sleeping position. The Loom & Leaf offers the best pain relief to those with lower back pain who weigh under 230 lbs. The Firm option is supportive enough to keep these folks situated on top of the mattress. T
Durability
The Casper is protected by a 10-year warranty, and the Loom & Leaf is protected by a 15-year warranty, so even if your mattress develops defects, you can make a claim and receive repairs or a replacement.

Our Casper vs. Loom & Leaf Final Review
The Casper and Loom & Leaf both make use of contouring memory foam layers, but otherwise feel like pretty different mattresses. The Casper’s Zoned Support layer is ideal for back sleepers and those with back pain. The dense foam layers also keep motion transfer to a minimum, which is a great feature for couples. The Loom & Leaf comes with a luxury price tag, but the relaxed firm is our pick for side sleepers, and the firm version is well-suited to stomach sleepers.
Casper & Loom & Leaf FAQs
Do Casper mattresses sag?
Casper mattresses are unlikely to sag in the first seven to ten years of ownership so long as they are set atop a supportive base. Casper covers body indentations of greater than 1 inch during the 10-year warranty, so you’re covered in the case of a deep impression.
Is the Loom & Leaf mattress flippable?
No, the Loom & Leaf is a one-sided mattress, but it’s offered in two different firmness levels: Relaxed Firm and Firm. If you’re interested in a flippable memory foam mattress, check out the Layla mattress. Also, Saatva offers a flippable latex mattress—the Zenhaven, which has medium-soft and medium-firm sides.
Does the Loom & Leaf work for heavy people?
Technically, yes, the Loom & Leaf works for heavy people (which we define as those over 230 lbs). We even recommend it to heavyweight back and side sleepers. It is not the best fit for heavier stomach sleepers and those who want a really durable mattress, since it lacks support coils.
