Kluft
Kluft is the signature brand of E.S. Kluft, who also crafts Aireloom mattresses. The claim to fame of Kluft mattresses is their use of luxury materials like cashmere and Joma® wool. They offer three hybrid mattress collections with pocketed coils, latex, foam and packed luxury comfort materials, and a latex mattress option. Most customers like their Kluft mattresses at first, but durability is a big concern for many reviewers who experienced sagging issues.
Pranasleep
Pranasleep makes a variety of latex, latex and memory foam, and latex-hybrid mattress lines. You may see them sold under the names Lotus, Om, and Karma in addition to Pranasleep. They use high end latex in most of their mattresses, which drives the prices up into the luxury category. Most customers find their mattresses comfortable, but some had complaints about durability.

Kluft's Owner Satisfaction
Getting a sense of how customers feel about mattresses can direct shoppers towards good options. Customers, sadly, don't always have positive remarks about these mattresses. Some are very satisfied with the feel, but others report discomfort. There are more details below to study if you are considering buying.
Kluft's Supportiveness
Having a supportive mattress is essential for having a good night's sleep. At the beginning, these mattresses have high marks for support, but there are some issues with long term support. Check out the mattress specifications to make sure that it fits your body type.
Edge Support
Edge support is an important attribute in hunting down a mattress that is comfortable no matter where you relax on it. These mattresses have okay edge support for most sleepers, but there may be issues with dipping on the edges for some.
Bowling Ball & Density Tests
In initial density and bowling ball tests reported by sleepers and reviewers, there is initial support throughout the mattress is fairly even for most sleepers. Some folks have mentioned that support may degrade over time for some.
Kluft's Durability
These mattresses may not be as long-living as you'd like. Some reviewers have had complaints regarding durability and comfort over a short horizon. If you are larger or are looking for something supportive, these mattresses may provide good comfort initially, but make sure to do some more research before buying.
Pranasleep's Owner Satisfaction
With customer data, it is easier to understand if a mattress will work for you. However, there are a lot of other brands out there competing for your attention. For these mattresses specifically, customers have mixed emotions. Some are cozy in their new mattress, but others have complaints about the feel.
Pranasleep's Supportiveness
Overall, support is important for spine alignment and overall comfort of a mattress over the long term. These mattresses do a good job providing support for most folks, but rarely, some customers have complained about supportiveness.
Edge Support
Edge support is an important attribute for solid mattresses and for those that like spending time on the side or bottom of their mattress. These mattresses have well rated edge support, but some heavier folks may experience more contouring along the sides.
Bowling Ball & Density Tests
Bowling ball tests are good indicators of firmness as well as support. These mattresses provide even support overall, but some customers may have issues with even support long term.
Pranasleep's Durability
Mattresses may not last as long as they used to. Finding a mattress that lasts over 15 years is hard to find. That said, finding a long-living and comfortable mattress can save you thousands. Sadly, sleepers have mixed feelings about these mattresses. Some customers report no problems, but others have issues with the durability over a shorter horizon than average.

Big lump in the middle
Extremely dissappointed after I shelled out so much money. After only a few days, there is severe body contouring and a lump in the middle. This is so ridiculous. I called them and they said that it is normal for a 1.5 inch depression, but I can't believe this because it is unsleepable. I feel like I can barely reach my partner through the hump.

Enjoy it!
7-8 hours of our day is spent asleep. Spend a bit more and enjoy the loveliness of waking without a sore neck or back. So worth every penny. One indulgence you'll get your money's worth. I look forward to my bed every night.

I dislike it intensely
We own a Kluft and I dislike it intensely, so does he. I found that after some time the bed became dented on each side (where we lay) with a rise in the middle. The probable explanation for not liking it might be due to both of us traveling out of the country where the beds were harder in places like Germany and Sweden. We loved those beds a lot and in the future will be getting an extremely hard frame with the one thinner mattress (I believe IKEA has them now). The IKEA bed is unremarkable in appearance, but so so very comfortable. The Kluft bed consist of foam beneath the top layer of fabric and eventually the fabric wore down, revealing the foam. The foam contorted to the shape of our bodies. Neither one of us like the look or feel anymore - we wake with sore backs and some shoulder discomfort. Granted, he had the bed quite a few years, considering the length of time he has had it, I suppose it lasted a while. At one time it felt as if it may have been hard, but really the bed seems more sturdy in appearance than it actually feels.
A week in and I love it!
So far, really enjoying this mattress. It's like sleeping on a cloud!
Already sagging
There is a big indent where I sleep and a hill between my wife and me. It is not what you would expect after spending that kind of money on a mattress. Very dissappointed.
Starting to change
The first few months on this mattress were absolutely amazing. But now there is a major change happening. The bed is starting to sag where my husband and I sleep. The middle is much higher so we it feels like you are rolling up hill when you try to get to the middle. Not good.
Super comfortable
I had a foam bed that offgassed and gave me asthma. This bed didn't do that at all. It is super comfortable and I have been sleeping through the whole night since I've gotten it.
Great to start
I just got the Kluft and really can't complain. It is super comfortable and I am enjoying my sleep more than my 15 year old mattress.
Dented?
The bed was amazing the first 4 months, but now it has a visible dent on my husband's side. He is a little bigger (220lbs) so it could be that. I am still sleeping really well, but he is starting to complain.
Like sleeping on a cloud
this is an I ndulgence for me that is well worth the expense.
Comfortable but hot...
Loved the comfort of the mattress, but the latex in the plush top is hot. Had to put (in addition to the mattress cover, of course the sheets) a down comforter on top of the mattress to block the heat from my body. Finally a good nights sleep. Going to exchange this mattress for one that doesn’t have the latex that close to the top. That particular latex was suppose to keep cool in hot weather and warm in cool weather so I was told. I recommend this product, but it’s not for me.
Like sleeping on a (supportive) marshmallow
This bed is part of a king set used in a new adjustable bed. It is so soft, it's hard to believe it is also supportive. After sleeping (miserably) on firm mattresses for years because I thought that was best for my back, I am now in heaven. Unlike the Sleep Number Bed that we just got rid of -- which only caused sagging in the center when you lowered the number -- this bed is soft everywhere, yet you can also feel it gently supporting your body.
AWESOME
This mattress....AWESOME. I purchased this mattress about 30 days ago and decided to wait before writing a review. This mattress strikes the perfect balance between comfort and support. After topping the mattress with a cotton pad and high quality sheets, this rivals any bed I've slept in at a 5 star hotel. This model is perfect for my needs. I'm as satisfied as the first day I climbed on it.
This mattress rocks for ME
Been on the hunt for a mattress for at least 5 months. I looked at Casper, Vispring and everything in between and the range is huge! I was close to pulling the trigger on a 12k mattress at a mattress boutique in Chicago until I ran into Luke in the bedding dept at the Home location dwntn. He was patient and understanding on how important an investment this was for me. I visited at least 4 times before purchasing and so glad I did. I saved 7 grand and was able to spend a little more on the bedroom furniture that supported it. Luke told me "you can find comfort in just about any new mattress you try". And after laying on many I came to find he was absolutely right. Side back or stomach sleeper take your time and look at it as a true investment.
Recent Kluft Mattress Review
We are enjoying our new mattress and would recommend to others, this is the mattress you want to consider. Friends told us they bought one and we decided we needed one as well. Thanks to Bloomingdales in San Francisco, Hamid, for all his help. Delivery was on time and the installation went smoothly. Thanks Bloomingdales for everything and the bonus dollars and points. We most likely will put it to good use wither here or in New York next month.
New Kluft Mattress
I've only had my Kluft for a little bit, but it sleeps well and when I wake up I no longer have a pain in my back. I would recommend for side or back sleepers.
Love my new Kluft mattress!!
The only thing better than my mattress was my Bloomie’s customer service—from the knowledgeable sales person who didn’t pressure me to spend more than I needed to, to the delivery. When there was confusion about whether the contracted delivery people would take my old mattress away, I called my Bloomie’s sale rep who immediately intervened and made sure it was taken!
Very comfy mattress
I had purchased a different mattress from Bloomingdale's that was too firm for me and caused me terrible back pain. I exchanged that mattress for this one and have been very happy so far; no back pain at all! I have only had the mattress for 2 weeks though, so I only hope that it lasts. I would have given it 5 stars, but the tufting is very deep and you can feel it while you're laying on the mattress. I would have preferred that it wasn't as deep.
Love this mattress
We are so pleased with this mattress, it’s been a long search for the right mattress that I don’t sleep hot on.
Exceeds My Expectations
I did some diligent shopping at several stores in search of quality and a perfect fit before deciding on the Kluft mattress and box springs. My selection was aided by a knowledgeable sales rep at Bloomingdale's who understood construction and materials and value. It became clear to me that mattress products at Bloomingdale's were "best of the best," but with alternative design, materials and price points. I was able to narrow my decision easily. This Kluft mattress and box spring met and exceeded my expectations for luxurious comfort and restfulness and resolving some quality of sleep issues.
Awful
We tried each of the Klufts on display at the store. We ordered the Preston in the king size as it seemed neither too firm nor too soft and the price was acceptable to us. The mattress is worse than the old one we replaced. It does not feel remotely like the model we tried in store. You literally sink into it. My upper back and neck hurt from the misalignment of sleeping on it. We are going to exchange it for a different model. This is my first experience with this brand and I am very diasappointed. We have had the mattress for two weeks and it was awful from day one.
Great mattress while it was new
Purchased this mattress 2 years ago. It is well constructed and looks great. But after two years it became soft and we start having pains in the mornings. Bloomingdales has great service and contacted the manufacturer to diagnose the problem... But the manufacturer did nothing since the indentation was less than 1.5 inches. They suggested to use the mattress that causes us pain for another year and call them for another measurement.... Don't waste your money thinking you are buying something
Great mattress
Very comfortable and wake up feeling refreshed and minimal aches and pains
Firm and Luxe
This mattress is very high quality, luxurious and great to sleep on. It is firm and supportive. Everything you want for a great night sleep.
Top quality, luxury mattress, super comfy
After a long research, we bought this bed and are very happy so far. It's definitely worth the money because we get up in the morning feeling rested and free of any back pain. Quality mattress is very important for good health and keep you away from doctors.
Love our new mattress !!!
We bought the mattress a week ago and until now we are very happy. Its firm the way we wanted and we don't have back pain anymore at night or when we wake up. Highly recommended. Its worth the money
Kluft Reverie is a dream
I have had three spine surgeries and sleeping has been painful ever since. For years I've suspected my mattress, while new at the time, was still too soft. I have my Kluft for a week and I have no pain during the night!! The most firm mattress in their line but not the most expensive!
Worst company to deal with beginning with the VP of sales Bret Swygman
I am a retailer forAireloome mattress and have never been so disappointed with the quality of both the service and the mattresses. I.5" indentation in a mattress is their delineation of when there is a problem! Absurd!! I will not sell another mattress and will never recommend this company to a soul. What a sad state. We can't even get them to return a call. I would rate them a - 1
Sagging mattress
This is a review about the Kluft mattress bought from the Bay on Aug 2017. This is an awareness of this mattress if you want to buy a new mattress and boxspring please go ahead and buy Kluft from the Bay. If not avoid Kluft and avoid buying from the Bay completely. I bought my mattress on Aug 2017 from the downtown Bay on their big bay day sales - the original price of the mattress was over $6000 (King size) and each box spring was $1200. The warranty is for 10 years. I do understand that things don’t last for 10 years…but I was expecting to get at least 5 years out of my mattress…I just got 2 years out of it. The salesman at the Bay insisted that if we don’t buy the box spring, the warranty would be void. So I called up the Bay to tell them that someone needs to come and look at my mattress because it has sunk on both sides but one side has sunk really low. So after 2 weeks of sending them the pictures and answering all their questions and going back and forth, they finally send out a mattress technician on Sept 23, 2019. He came and did say that mattresses should not sink so low in 2 years on one side. I also explained that in the centre of the mattress it is a lot higher than the side I sleep on. The tech took all the information and checked everything and he did agree that there was an issue with the mattress and would let the bay know. I got a phone call from the bay the very next day and they told me that however much the mattress had sunk, it was within the manufacturer’s specification so they couldn’t do anything. They said they couldn’t do anything for us for the next 6 months and only after that they would be able to send another tech to revisit the issue. I spoke to the customer service department and the returns and exchange department, I also spoke to the manager and I explained everything in detail saying that as the night goes on, the mattress keeps sinking and my neck and back hurt. I also explained that I wake up early in the morning so when the tech came at noon, the mattress had again come up. At this point the manager said instead of 6 months, we can come in 3 months to see as a favour to me to send out another tech. I told him if I sleep on the mattress for another 3 months my back is going to be very sore. He said that he couldn’t do anything for me unfortunately since again it was within the manufacturer’s specifications. So everyone do not ever buy a mattress from the Bay. They were very prompt in letting me know that they couldn’t do anything about it. I have to say the Bay is going down in quality and service and their products. Especially stay away from the Kluft brand - they have the big price but the quality is rubbish.
Painful Sleeping
Being newly retired we decided to buy the best mattress money could buy. Boy,was that a mistake. Worst mattress we've ever owned. It's comfy enough at first, but in about an hour's time the pain in my hips and shoulder wakes me up. After six hours or so, I feel like I've been sleeping on the floor. And I'm not a fussy sleeper. Just about any mattress is good enough for me: But not this one.
Not Worth the price
It was very nice in the the first couple of years,but after that the edges started to sag.I am handicapped and need to sit on the side of the mattress to get dressed.It is now so saggy at the edges that I can no longer use it.I did not complain to Kluft or Bloomingdales.I bought another mattress. Good Riddance. Don't waste your money on this mattress
Simply dreadful mattress!
We went to Bloomingdale’s to get a Shiffman mattress but the salesman talked us into a Kluft. After trying many in the showroom, we chose a sale one. When it came it was like a sack of straw. We IMMEDIATELY complained, picked another one at Bloomingdales and had to sleep separately for three weeks, while we waited for the new Kluft. It has been a year. The mattress leaves us with back and hip pain. The middle slopes, the sides slope - it is hideous. We are negotiating to get out of this horror show - but my advice is never ever purchase a Kluft mattress. They are awful.

We have been sleeping
We have been sleeping on our mattress for about a week. Every night I am amazed at how comfortable it is. We wish we bought one long ago.
After our experienced salesperson
After our experienced salesperson at Jordan's Furniture showed us the PranaSleep mattress, we were shown other brands in comparison. Our tired and sore back bodies kept seeking the PranaSleep mattress. After a smooth delivery
we find restful sleep...enriching and restoring life's energy
We bought a memory foam
We bought a memory foam. But found it too soft and movement was different. We returned it and purchased a PranaSleep (Vinyasa Plush Mattress). The difference was dramatic. The Prana Sleep gave us great support. Ability to change
sleeping positions and comfort. We are happy with our Prana Sleep mattress.
I suppose this will be my last note for a while
I suppose this will be my last note for a while to you. I cannot tell you the difference this bed had made in my health. Each morning I feel less like taking any medication for my back!!! I had so much trouble after my hit and
run car injury. And then I found the PranaSleep system. This bed has literally changed my life. I have not once awoken with shoulder pain. Not once with neck pain, and my lower back does not ache. I wake up feeling alive, happy
and renewed. I will never sleep on anything but latex again if I have my say, but the quality of latex matters too. This bed is my answer to so many years of upset and pain. Thank you PranaSleep for creating a piece of art. I am
an artist by the way and I am so impressed with this bed, I only have one complaint now when I go out of town I can't find the sleep I have at home. I love you all, thank you. By the way I hope it feels good to know you have made
an actual tangible difference in my life and the lives of others I am sure. Isn’t that why we are here to help others. Thank you again. Bye for now.
I had a spring pillow soft mattress
I had a spring pillow soft mattress and exchanged for my PranaSleep mattress and I'm glad I did. I sleep through the night no turning and tossing. I can't wait to go to bed at night. I love my new mattress. I have arthritis
and I don't have any more pain.
I have been through several mattresses
I have been through several mattresses since being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 17 years ago. Nothing has helped my pains and poor sleep patterns until I got my PranaSleep mattress. Finally I am getting relief from pressure point
pains and I am getting quality sleep. I believe this mattress is going to give me a better quality of life. Thank you.
Had our first night's sleep on our new PranaSleep
Had our first night's sleep on our new PranaSleep mattress last night and it was wonderful! No sore back in the morning for Robin or sore shoulders and neck for Mark. Really comfortable mattress. Looking forward to more restful
nights to come!
I Love It!!
I Love It!! My hip and back no longer keep me up at night - so glad I made the investment!
We love our new PranaSleep adjustable bed
We love our new PranaSleep adjustable bed. We bought the PranaSleep Vinyasa Super Plush adjustable and must say it is the most comfortable bed we have ever slept on! No pressure points and felt like we were on a cloud!
Thanks so much for being true to your word.
I honestly have never slept better in my life
I honestly have never slept better in my life. I didn't know a mattress could feel this wonderful. It keeps my body cool! No more night sweats. I love you guys!
I truly love my Prana mattress
I truly love my Prana mattress which I bought seven years ago. Every time I travel I can’t wait to come home to my Prana.
It is so comfortable
It is so comfortable - like floating on water. It was a bit pricey - but I think it is going to be worth it. My back is not sore when I get out of bed anymore.
Slept on it last night for the first time
Slept on it last night for the first time. Had my best night sleep in a long time. Very Happy with my buying decision. I'm sure it will only get better as the bed breaks in.
We had never heard of PranaSleep mattresses
We had never heard of PranaSleep mattresses until we went shopping at Jordan's Furniture. The salesman led us to PranaSleep and we bought one after trying it in the store. So glad we did! We love the comfort and support...not
to mention the luxury.
After 2 years
After 2 years we had body impressions and the mattress started hurting our backs. We are only 115 and 150 lbs.
We could have bought
We could have bought two mattresses for the price and now the only place that is comfortable is the middle, but I end up rolling to the sides. Not supportive any more.
great for first year, then aweful
Bought the king for my husband and myself. It's been 13 months, 11 of which were good, and then it just kind of gave up, and it's taco-ing where we each sleep, mostly where our buts are. It's supremely uncomfortable, and I didn't notice it at first, but my husband and I are experiencing back and hip problems and in the last month, suddenly and we're in physical therapy for problems we never had before. So, now we're looking into the warranty to see if we can get a different bed. This bed doesn't stand up at all. Poor value for the money, but it's amazing on day 1. So, if you need a great mattress for 6-10 months, maybe this will work for you. But for $1800 it doesn't work for us. FYI, we're not even big people. He weighs maybe 170 and I'm 130LBS.
Latex Matress
This has been a comfortable mattress but it is very difficult to make the bed. The mattress is extremely heavy, putting the dust ruffel on was almost impossible. Tucking the sheets is equally as hard. I think a lighter weight mattress would have better suited our needs.
Hate it
The worst mattress I’ve ever owned. I’ve only had it a little over 2 years and it’s already sagging. The store where I bought it sent someone out after I PAID $60.00 to have them come only to be called and told the manufacture wouldn’t consider it bad enough. Imagine what it’ll be like in 2 more years. Total waist of $2,000.00!
Prana Falls Short
We bought the Prana based on guidance from the sales person. The first mattress broke down quickly, they agreed to provide a pro-rated credit that we applied to another Prana. Honestly I find hotel beds more comfortable. The Prana shows well and in the show room is comfortable but my wife and I have struggled to get the advertised comfort. Most days we wake up with hip, back and neck pain. Prana is very pricey and I feel like we could've found a better, more comfortable bed for a lot less. We're now contemplating biting the bullet and making a change, it won't be the over-priced Prana.
Absolute rubbish
I've never spent this kind of money on a mattress. Was assured that it was one of the best warranties in the business. The warranty is nonsense and neither the local dealer or the manufacturer has stood by their product. I am purchasing a new mattress because after 6 months in attempts to have them warrant their product they are hiding behind the fine print of their warranty which I suggest your read before purchasing. It requires a minimum VISIBLE deflection. It doesn't matter if the mattress has moved more San Andreas fault - if you cannot see it under the tight top mattress pad - it will not be warranted. I have a Tuft & Needle bed I purchased for our guest bed I started sleeping in because this mattress is literally worse than a camping mattress.
Did not last
We bought a Prana mattress a few years ago and after about a year or so, the mattress got way too soft and we both wake up with back pain on a daily basis. It was Avery expensive mattress that lost their firmness after too short a time! Won’t buy again!
Good while it lasted, which was only 6 years
This mattress was very nice and I slept well for about 5 years. Then about year 5.5, this mattress started to soften dramatically and has started sagging a bit. The sag isn't THAT much, maybe 0.75 inches, but it's the softening of the material that has killed my back. The last six months I woke up aching and feeling like I hadn't slept at all. I had to consume lots of Tylenol and ibuprofen to get back to normal. Then it was like Groundhogs Day...the same. I thought I was just getting old, then I moved to my cheaper guest bed and woke up feeling amazing with no back pain. I tried this 2 or 3 more times over the course of a month and this bed is most definitely the problem. I also purchased a very nice EuroSlat system for my Super Vinyasa. I have reached out to who I bought it from, but they've stopped selling Prana and said to contact Prana. Prana has not returned my phone call or my email that contained all the original sales information. I suspect their warranty is a sham. I figured with the price tag and warranty, it was actually going to be a lasting product. Caveat Emptor.
Worst Mattress ever for the very high price
We paid $1900 dollars for this mattress and after 6 months we wake up every morning with the worst backache ever. I don' t know what to do about this but its horrible. Can't get a good nights sleep. I would like to hear from the company why this is so bad.
I would give it 0 stars if I could
Worst mattress ever, causing back/neck pain. That’s my issue. My husband’s complaint is his shoulders/arms. When not using this mattress, we don’t have these issues. Had I known , salesman never mentioned, that this mattress is made by City Mattress, I wouldn’t have paid 4000 thousand for this piece of garbage. Now looking elsewhere for a new one.
PranaSleep changed my life
I love my Super Vinyasa Plush from PranaSleep. I have a bad back from growing too quickly as a child, and it gives me the right amount of support, with a hint of plushness. I've tried too many mattresses in the past and always disliked them after less than a year. I recommend PranaSleep to all my neighbors, family, and friends.
one year old and sagging already
While it seems comfortable enough in showroom, it began to have sags and soft spots in just a few months. Despite rotating this mattress regularly and then purchasing boards for under the hip and shoulder areeas, we still cannot get a full night's sleep. We are not big people - 160 and 135 lbs. Just one year old and need to find another mattress - don't waste your money.
