The Brentwood Home Cypress Memory Foam is the brand’s value entry into memory foam, redesigned in 2020 and pitched as a more affordable alternative to pricier foam beds. The official page lists a sale price of $539 against a $599 MSRP for the starting configuration, charcoal-infused CertiPUR-US certified memory foam, plant-based BioFoam support layers, and a choice between an all-foam build and a hybrid build with an 8-inch coil unit. It carries a one-year mattress trial and a 25-year limited warranty, unusually long coverage at this price tier. The catch is a policy detail that changes the whole buying decision: the 11-inch hybrid and 13-inch all-foam models are marked Final Sale, no returns, and not eligible for the one-year sleep trial. This review works through the specifications, the size-by-size pricing, and the trial fine print so you can decide whether the Cypress fits your situation or whether you should look elsewhere.

Who is the Brentwood Home Cypress Memory Foam for?
The Cypress is built for budget-focused shoppers who want a memory foam mattress with a charcoal-infused comfort layer and a long warranty, and who are comfortable buying a mattress with limited or no return rights depending on the configuration. It suits guest rooms, first apartments, and kid or teen bedrooms where the priority is a low entry price rather than a long at-home trial. Shoppers who already know they like a medium soft to gentle firm feel, and who are buying a size that is actually in stock, are the natural fit. If you need to try a mattress for months before committing, the final sale terms on several configurations matter more than the foam itself.
Consider the use case carefully. A guest room mattress gets slept on a handful of nights a year, so the risk of a final sale is small and the savings matter. A primary bed for two adults who have never tried memory foam carries a different risk profile, because preference is the one thing a warranty cannot fix. The Cypress rewards the buyer who already knows what contouring foam feels like and simply wants more of it for less money.
What does the official page actually specify?
The specifications describe a mattress line with two construction paths and two heights. The comfort layer is CertiPUR-US certified charcoal-infused memory foam, described by the brand as naturally cooling and plush. The support layers use polyurethane base foam with up to 20 percent plant-based BioFoam. All-foam models use an 8-inch contour-cut BioFoam support core; hybrid models use an 8-inch coil unit with reinforced edges and pocketed coils that the brand says distribute body weight, absorb partner movement, and reinforce the perimeter. The line is offered in a Classic height of 11 inches and a Luxe height of 13 inches, with the Luxe marketed as adding cooling and a plushier feel. Firmness is described as a range from medium soft to gentle firm rather than a numbered scale.

How much does the Cypress cost by size?
Pricing on the official page is shown as a sale price against a struck-through MSRP, and availability varies sharply by size. The table below reproduces the figures the brand displays. Several larger sizes are marked sold out at the time of writing, which is worth checking before you fall for a configuration you cannot order. Prices and stock change, so check the current price on the official site before buying.
| Size | All-Foam Classic 11 inch | Hybrid Luxe 13 inch |
|---|---|---|
| Twin | $539 (MSRP $599) | |
| Twin XL | ||
| Full | Sold out | Sold out |
| Queen | Sold out | Sold out |
| King | Sold out | Sold out |
| California King | Sold out | Sold out |
The page also lists weights, which matter for delivery and for moving the mattress upstairs. A Queen all-foam Classic weighs 72 pounds and a Queen all-foam Luxe weighs 83 pounds; the hybrid versions of the same size weigh 90 and 107 pounds respectively. A Twin all-foam Classic is the lightest option at 40 pounds, while a King hybrid Luxe reaches 135 pounds. The brand notes that its products are handmade in Los Angeles and currently in extremely high demand, which is the stated context for shipping times.

How does the Cypress feel and support the body?
According to the specifications, the Cypress is offered from medium soft to gentle firm, which places it in the softer half of the market rather than the firm, on-top feel that stomach sleepers often prefer. The charcoal-infused memory foam comfort layer is described as plush and contouring, supporting the body’s natural curves and relieving pressure, which is the classic memory foam profile of sink-in comfort rather than buoyant pushback. A numbered firmness scale is not published for this model, so the exact feel will depend on which construction and height you choose.
The hybrid option adds pocketed coils that the brand says distribute weight and relieve pressure points, which typically changes the feel from pure foam contouring toward a more responsive surface. If firmness precision matters to you, confirm the current feel description on your specific configuration before ordering. The gap between medium soft and gentle firm is meaningful for sleep position: side sleepers generally gravitate toward the softer end for hip and shoulder relief, while back and stomach sleepers usually want the firmer end to keep the hips from sinking.
Does the charcoal-infused foam actually sleep cooler?
The brand’s stated claim is that charcoal helps with temperature and moisture control, and that the infused foam moves moisture and heat away from the body so you stay dry, cool, and comfortable overnight. That is a marketing claim from the manufacturer rather than an independent test result, and no third-party temperature measurements for this model are available here. Buyers who sleep hot should treat the charcoal infusion as a feature to verify rather than a guarantee, and should look for any updated cooling details on the Luxe height, which the brand markets as adding cooling.
This matters most for people in warm climates or those who share a bed with a partner, since heat buildup is a common reason foam mattresses get returned. The honest framing is that charcoal infusion is a real material choice with a stated purpose, and that the brand’s own language describes what the foam is designed to do rather than what a thermometer recorded. If you sleep hot and cannot return the mattress, the cooling question deserves extra weight in your decision.
How does the Cypress handle motion, edges, and noise?
For motion isolation, the brand states that the hybrid’s pocketed coils absorb partner movement, which is the documented claim for the coil version. The all-foam configuration has no coils, and no motion transfer measurement is available for either version. For edge support, the hybrid is described as having a reinforced perimeter that the brand says eliminates the roll-off-the-edge feeling; the all-foam model’s edge performance is not separately documented. For noise, no information about how either version sounds over time is available here, so current owner feedback is worth reading on that point.
These three factors matter most for couples sharing a bed and for anyone who sits on the mattress edge daily, such as people getting dressed in the morning. The practical takeaway is that the hybrid build is the one with published claims on both motion and edges, while the all-foam build is the simpler, lighter, cheaper option whose behavior in those areas is left to the buyer to research elsewhere.
What do the trial and warranty really cover?
The headline terms are generous on paper: a one-year mattress trial and a 25-year limited warranty, which the brand describes as one of the best in the industry. That means the trial and return rights advertised do not apply to every configuration, and the specific model you pick determines whether you can send it back.
Read the eligibility note for your exact size and construction before you pay, because a mattress you cannot return is a different purchase than one you can. The warranty length is a genuine strength at this price point, but warranty terms cover defects rather than preference, so a long warranty does not replace a trial period. A 25-year limited warranty protects against manufacturing problems; it does not protect against waking up unhappy with a medium soft feel.
Who should NOT buy the Brentwood Home Cypress?
The final sale exclusions on the 11-inch hybrid and 13-inch all-foam models mean some shoppers will be buying blind with no return path, which is a poor fit for anyone unsure about memory foam. Sold-out Full, Queen, King, and California King listings at the time of writing also rule out the Cypress for many couples until stock returns. And if you want a numbered firmness scale, third-party test data, or a detailed materials breakdown for the exact layer stack, the official Cypress page does not provide those.
The Cypress is a strong fit for a specific buyer: someone who already likes memory foam, wants a low entry price, needs only a Twin or Twin XL right now, and treats a 25-year warranty as meaningful reassurance. It is a weak fit for the opposite buyer: a couple ordering a Queen, unfamiliar with foam feel, who wants months to decide. Matching the mattress to the room matters as much as matching it to the sleeper. A final sale in a guest room is a small gamble; a final sale on the bed you sleep in every night is a large one.
How does the Cypress compare with the Saatva Classic?
The Saatva Classic is an innerspring mattress with a 3-inch Euro pillow top, a dual-coil design of triple-tempered recycled carbon steel, and patented Lumbar Zone technology for spinal alignment. It is offered in three comfort levels, Plush Soft at 3 out of 10, Luxury Firm at 5 to 7 out of 10, and Firm at 8 out of 10, and in two heights, 11.5 inches and 14.5 inches. It carries a 365-night home trial, free white-glove delivery with in-room setup and old mattress removal, and a lifetime warranty. The Cypress offers a one-year trial with final sale exclusions on select models, a 25-year limited warranty, and a starting price far below the Saatva Classic.
The choice is really about risk tolerance and feel preference. The Cypress wins on entry price and on a long warranty at a low cost, and it suits buyers who already know they want contouring memory foam. The Saatva Classic wins on trial length, on delivery service, on warranty duration, and on the ability to pick a firmness level rather than accept a range.

If you are leaning toward Brentwood Home but want a model with a different construction and a different feel, our Brentwood Home Oceano review covers that option in the same detail.
Verdict: the Brentwood Home Cypress Memory Foam is a sensible buy for a budget shopper who already likes memory foam and can live with final sale terms on the configuration they choose. It is a poor buy for anyone who needs months to test a mattress or who wants a firm, on-top feel. If trial flexibility is your priority, the Saatva Classic is the better fit.

- Price at equal size: a $539 starting price against a $599 MSRP is a strong showing in the memory foam category.
- Trial and return terms: a one-year trial headline is undercut by final sale exclusions on the 11-inch hybrid and 13-inch all-foam models.
- Warranty: a 25-year limited warranty is long coverage for this price tier.
- Materials and construction: charcoal-infused CertiPUR-US certified memory foam, plant-based BioFoam, and a genuine all-foam or hybrid choice.
- Public customer feedback: no rating figure is published for this model, so this criterion carries no weight in the score.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Brentwood Home Cypress Memory Foam good for back pain?
The brand describes the charcoal-infused comfort layer as supporting the body’s natural curves and relieving pressure, which is the mechanism most foam shoppers look for when they want pressure relief. No clinical or chiropractic endorsement is claimed for this model, and firmness is given as a range rather than a number, so the answer depends on which construction and height you choose and how your body responds to a medium soft to gentle firm feel.
Can I return the Cypress if I do not like it?
It depends entirely on the configuration. Confirm the eligibility note for your exact size and construction before you pay, since the model you pick determines whether a return path exists at all.
What is the difference between the Classic and Luxe versions?
The Classic stands 11 inches tall and the Luxe stands 13 inches tall, with the Luxe marketed as adding cooling and a plushier feel. Both heights are offered in all-foam and hybrid builds, and both use the same charcoal-infused CertiPUR-US certified comfort layer with BioFoam support layers underneath.
Does the Cypress work on an adjustable base?
The brand states that the mattress can be paired with an adjustable base, and that complete sets start from $998. If you already own an adjustable base, this is worth confirming for your specific size before ordering.
How heavy is the Cypress to move?
Weights vary widely by size and build. A Twin all-foam Classic is the lightest at 40 pounds, a Queen all-foam Classic is 72 pounds, a Queen hybrid Luxe is 107 pounds, and a King hybrid Luxe reaches 135 pounds. If you are moving the mattress up stairs or into a tight corner, the hybrid builds in larger sizes are the ones that need a second pair of hands.
