Honest Thoughts About My Brooklyn Mattress – RVMattress.com Review

This post may contain affiliate links.

Recently I was offered the chance to try out a mattress from RVMattress.com: The Brooklyn Signature Hybrid Mattress, so I could write an RVmattress.com review. Though I did receive my mattress for free and promised to write a review in return, I am under no obligations as to the content of the article, and my review is complete and honest!  Hopefully you find it helpful if you’re shopping for a mattress for your home or RV!

2025 Update: Five Years Later

I wrote this article exactly five years ago, and I’m still using my Brooklyn mattress from RVmattress.com. Read to the end of this article to find out my thoughts on it five years later!

Be sure to check out my Complete Guide to Buying an RV Mattress to read about other mattresses, mattress toppers, and bedding options I recommend.

What is a hybrid mattress?

Hybrid mattresses combine the best features of both a memory foam mattress and a traditional mattress. Like regular mattresses, they typically have a coil support system, but on top of that, they have cloud-like layers of memory foam.

My first time to sleep on a hybrid mattress was at an AirBnb. It was so comfortable that I sent a message to the owner of the Airbnb to find out what kind of mattress it was! She told me it was a hybrid. Right then and there I decided my next mattress would be a hybrid!

The Brooklyn Signature Hybrid Mattress

The mattress I chose is the Brooklyn Signature Hybrid mattress. You can order it in RV sizes at RVMattress.com or in residential sizes at the sister site (owned by the same company), BrooklynBedding.com.

It comes in three levels of firmness, and I had a hard time deciding which was best for me. I ended up choosing the “medium firmness” based on the recommendation of a representative from the company who told me it was ideal for side and back sleepers.

It does have some “give” to it, but it’s supportive and even. I don’t feel like I’m rolling toward my husband’s side of the bed, and if I sit on the edge it doesn’t sink too low. 

Yet, it still has that soft cloud-like quality that originally drew me to a hybrid mattress, and laying on it for hours doesn’t make my joints sore. This is what always happens to me when I sleep on a mattress that’s too firm.

Here are the main features that stand out to me about this mattress:

• Perfect “Goldilocks” firmness: Soft, but not saggy.  Supportive, but not too firm.
• Cool to sleep on. Doesn’t make me sweat, like some foam mattresses I’ve slept on.
• No strong smells. I’m not overly sensitive to smell, but any factory odors I might have noticed were gone within a few days.
• Came rolled up in a box, delivered straight to my door. Much more convenient than having to haul a mattress home from a store!

How it compares to my old mattress

Our old mattress was fine. It was familiar, still in pretty good shape, and didn’t give us backaches or anything.  However, it was starting to dip slightly in the middle, and on some nights when I had trouble falling asleep, it felt impossible to get comfortable.

So far I’ve loved every night on my new Brooklyn Bedding mattress, and a few months later I still think it’s the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever slept on.

Kitty also approves.

Why a mattress from this company is a great choice for an RV

I’ve already talked about how happy I am with having my Brooklyn Bedding mattress in my home. Now I want to highlight some features that I think make it a great choice for your RV as well.

You can order the right size for your RV.

Do you know the difference between a short queen and an Olympic queen?  RVMattress.com does! They even offer a king-sized mattress in six different dimensions!

Since it comes shipped in a box, it’s easier to get into your RV. 

Even if you have a very small RV and can’t fit the box through the door, the mattress doesn’t inflate until you open the sealed plastic, so you can carry it through your RV while it’s still flat. 

One thing I especially like about this mattress, though, is that it has handles built into the sides, which make it a lot easier to pick up and rotate.  (Why don’t all mattresses have these??)

It’s a luxury mattress at an affordable price.

Just because you’re camping doesn’t mean you want to sleep on an uncomfortable mattress! And if you live in your RV full time, that’s all the more reason to buy a quality mattress.

The hybrid mattresses at RVMattress.com are very affordable compared to hybrid mattresses I’ve seen at local mattress stores, and the company frequently runs sales where you can get an even better price. (I’ve seen discounts like 25% off all mattresses during Black Friday and winter sales!)

They offer several styles to choose from.  

You can choose between four different styles of mattress at different price points that each come in three levels of firmness (for the three hybrid models) or thickness (for their memory foam model). Of course you’ll want to read other RVmattress.com reviews before deciding which one is the best choice for you.

With so many styles and firmness levels to choose from, RVMattress.com is an excellent place to buy a mattress that’s a little nicer than your typical memory foam mattress yet is still affordable enough that you won’t feel bad buying it to use just a few times per year.

2025 Update: Thoughts After Five Years of Use

As I mentioned earlier, my husband and I have now been sleeping on our Brooklyn Signature Hybrid mattress nightly for five years, and I can honestly say I love it just as much now as I did when I first bought it. It doesn’t sag at all, hasn’t broken down, and I am experiencing no back issues or soreness when I wake up in the morning. Whenever we go out of town for several days and sleep in hotels and AirBnbs, I always feel so happy to be able to sleep on it again when we come back home. Even now, I still whole-heartedly recommend RVMattress.com and specifically the Brooklyn Hybrid Signature Mattress.
