Brooklyn Bedding Sedona Elite — 5 Years Old
The Cover
Still in great shape. The GlacioTex+ fabric showed some minor pilling but no tears, stains, or breakdown. The hexagon pattern was still crisp. For 5 years of nightly use, this cover held up exceptionally well.
Body Impressions & Sagging
Checking the mattress condition at pickup
Minimal impressions. Maybe half an inch where the main sleeper laid, but nothing severe. After 5 years of nightly use, that's impressive. Most mattresses at this age show 1-2 inches of compression. No sagging in the middle.
How It Feels
When I laid down, the mattress still pushed back. It didn't feel dead or bottomed out. The dual-coil system was still doing its job — conforming to my body but providing support. That responsive feel was still there after 5 years.
This is where the Sedona Elite shines. The combination of micro coils and pocketed coils creates a different feel than a standard hybrid. It's more responsive, more supportive, and based on what I've seen, it lasts longer.
The Layers
The layers exposed after 5 years of use
Layer 1: Copper-Infused Memory Foam (Top)
After 5 years, this foam still had density. When I pressed into it, it pushed back. No crumbling, no dust, no breakdown. The comfort layer had compressed slightly where the sleepers laid, but it wasn't destroyed. In cheap mattresses, this layer turns to powder after 2-3 years.
Layer 2: Transition Foam
Still solid. This layer sits between the foam and micro coils and was doing its job — no poke-through, no degradation.
Layer 3: Micro Coil Layer (1,000+ coils)
Brooklyn Bedding claims over 1,000 micro coils in this layer. After 5 years, they still had tension. When I pressed on them, they pushed back. These tiny individually wrapped coils create the responsive feel, and they were still working.
Layer 4: Main Pocketed Coil Unit (8 inches)
The main support layer — 15-gauge steel, zoned support. Firmer in the middle, softer at the edges. I compressed individual coils by hand and they still had snap. These weren't fatigued yet. This is what determines how long any mattress lasts.
The dual-coil system is legitimate — not marketing speak. There are genuinely two separate coil layers working together. The foam density matches what you'd expect at this price point. This is the real deal.
Fiberglass Check
No fiberglass fire sock inside
No Fiberglass
Brooklyn Bedding doesn't use fiberglass in any of their mattresses. Made in their USA factory.
At this price point ($1,799), you shouldn't be worrying about fiberglass anyway. But I checked — no fiberglass fire sock. Brooklyn Bedding uses safer alternatives across their entire lineup.
Who This Mattress Is For
Good For
- Couples who want a long-lasting mattress
- People who want premium construction
- Hot sleepers (copper foam + coils breathe well)
- Anyone wanting 10+ year durability
- People who appreciate quality materials
Probably Not For
- Budget shoppers (there are cheaper options)
- People who need an ultra-soft mattress
- Anyone who moves frequently (it's heavy)
- People who don't need premium longevity
The Sedona Elite is Brooklyn Bedding's premium line. If you're looking for a mattress that'll last 10+ years of nightly use, this is one of the better options I've seen at this price point.
My Take
I've picked up dozens of Sedona Elite mattresses through our recycling business over the years. They consistently hold up better than most mattresses at this price point.
The dual-coil construction distributes weight across two coil layers instead of one. That's why these last longer than single-coil hybrids. Most Sedonas we pick up are 8-12 years old and still functional — owners are replacing them because they want something new, not because the mattress failed.
At $1,799 for a Queen, you're paying for materials that hold up. If you want a mattress that'll last 10+ years, this is a solid choice.
This is what good construction looks like.
