Lull vs Casper

At first glance Lull and Casper look pretty similar, but they end up being very different in terms of construction and feel.  Naturally, people wonder how these two mattresses compare to one another.

 I will go through as many of the objective similarities and differences, as well as my personal experience with each, to help you make a more informed decision if you are deciding Lull vs Casper.

Lull vs Casper

Key Similarities

  • Both have the same general online-only business model
  • Both are made from all foam
  • Both are shipped and delivered in a box (with free shipping)
  • Both mattresses have the same total thickness and thickness of the comfort layer
  • Both have great customer service and friendly trial periods / return policies

Key Differences

  • Lull has memory foam on top, while Casper has latex on top
  • Casper has a bouncier, more responsive feel to it
  • The Casper costs $100 more than the Lull

Construction

The Casper mattress consists of 1.5” of latex, over 1.5” of 4lb. density memory foam, over 7” of 1.8 lb. density polyfoam.

The Lull mattress consists of 1.5” of gel-infused memory foam, over 1.5” of latex-like polyfoam, over 7” of high-density polyfoam.

Casper vs Lull Mattress Construction

The difference in construction creates a different feel between the two mattresses.  The Lull Queen weighs 77 lbs, while the Casper Queen weighs 83 lbs, so given that the thickness of both mattresses are the same, Casper is using more dense foam somewhere.

General Feel

Lull Mattress ReviewThe key difference between the two mattresses is the feel.  By putting memory foam as the top layer, the Lull has a relatively slower response feel.  Because it’s only 1.5” of memory foam (with latex-like foam underneath), it doesn’t have the full Tempurpedic feel, more somewhere in-between latex and memory foam.  

Casper has latex on top, and as a result has a bouncier, more responsive feel.  As you move, the mattress moves right with you very quickly.  Which feel is better?  Well, that really comes down to personal preference.

I feel that the firmness levels are about the same, potentially with Casper being a bit softer.  Note that this is just my subjective opinion.  To me, I felt Lull was better at catering to all possible sleeping positions.  The pressure relief from the memory foam felt great on my side, while it was still firm and supportive enough to sleep well on my back or stomach.  See my personal experience with each in my Lull review and Casper review.

Price

Casper Mattress BoxCasper sells its Queen for $850.  The Lull sells for $800.  You can usually get $50 off the Lull, so the price difference can be as high as $100.

Pick Lull If:

You Are Looking More For A Memory Foam Feel– If you want the pressure relief and feel memory foam is known for without the bounce of latex, that is what you get from the Lull.

You Sleep In Multiple Positions– One of the best parts of the Lull to me was that it did a great job of catering to any sleeping position.  It relieved pressure well on my side but was still quite supportive on my back and stomach.

You Want To Save Some Money– With the price difference of up to $100, you have the opportunity to save a little bit of money by going with Lull.

Pick Casper If:

You Want A Bouncier, More Responsive Mattress– Casper offers the opportunity to have the benefits of a foam mattress without the slow-moving nature of memory foam as the top layer.  If you want a bouncier mattress that responds quickly to movement, then Casper is the way to go.

You Sleep Mainly Just On Your Side– I thought the Casper was a bit on the soft side, which makes it great for side sleeping.

Final Recommendation

I personally prefer the Lull, but I would encourage you to take a look at the key differences and then decide how they relate to your personal preferences.  Both are great options that should have you sleeping well.
