The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) is a high-end bed-in-a-box. It uses memory foam for its comfort layers, and its lower polyfoam layers are marketed as Cooling Cloud and Climate Comfort foam.
The manufacturer describes it as a 'Medium-Plush' mattress, but it's firm and best-suited for average and bigger back and stomach sleepers. Side sleepers, especially lighter people, may want something plusher. You don't sink very deeply into the comfort layers. As an all-foam mattress, it's hardly bouncy at all. It's not very responsive and creates a moderately contouring feel—you may find this contouring feels like a pleasant hugging sensation or like you're stuck in place.
The Puffy Lux variant sold in the U.S. has a different design and performance. See the Differences Between Variants section below for more details.

The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) isn't a durable mattress. It uses only lower-quality foam, including the memory foam upper comfort layer and polyfoam transition and support layers. This makes the mattress prone to sagging or forming permanent body impressions sooner compared to models that use denser, higher-quality foam.

The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version)'s cooling performance is just satisfactory. It's not cooling enough for hot sleepers, who may have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, since it holds onto quite a bit of heat all night. If you don't sleep hot, it might still make you feel warmer than usual, but you may not mind if you virtually never feel overheated when trying to sleep.

The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) is great for motion dissipation. This all-foam mattress isolates motion well, so while you may feel it in the lumbar area when your partner rolls over, not much movement reaches your feet or head. It dissipates quickly, so you won't feel like you're bouncing around whenever your partner moves.
Great motion isolation, so movement is unlikely to wake you up.
Great edge support.
Decent cooling.

The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) is somewhat responsive. Its memory foam comfort layers take a moment to bounce back after being compressed. This helps create a hugging sensation but can also make you feel constricted, especially if you move around a lot as you sleep.
More responsive than many mattresses with memory foam.
Great edge support.
Decent cooling.
Best suited to average-sized and heavier back and stomach sleepers.
May make you feel stuck in place.

Popular Mattress Comparisons
The Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) is a firm mattress that best suits stomach and back sleepers. Its upper comfort layers of memory foam give it a slow-moving feel. However, it recovers its shape faster than some other memory-foam mattresses, such as the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Adapt, so it's worth considering if you like feeling held in place but want to be able to move around a little more easily. The great motion isolation is a plus when sleeping with a partner, since you won't feel every little move they make. That said, despite its 'Cooling Cloud' and 'Climate Comfort' foam layers, its cooling performance isn't good enough for hot sleepers. It's a decent option if you rarely feel overheated at night, but it can still make you feel a little warmer. The Tempur-Pedic is a good memory foam mattress for better cooling, and if you're not attached to the memory foam feel, you might prefer the medium-firm Purple Mattress.

The DreamCloud Hybrid (Canadian Version) and Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) perform similarly but have different strengths. Both mattresses have great motion isolation, so they're ideal for partnered sleeping, but beyond that, they're pretty different. The DreamCloud mattress is more cooling, so it's a better choice for hot sleepers. It's also more responsive, making moving around on the surface more comfortable. On the other hand, the Puffy Lux has much more robust edge support, which extends the comfortable sleeping surface and makes it easier to get in and out of bed. Either mattress could be a good choice, depending on your priorities.
The DreamCloud Premier Hybrid (Canadian Version) is better than the Puffy Lux (Canadian Version) for most people. The Dreamcloud has more bounce and is more responsive, so it feels easier to change sleeping positions. Its has significantly better cooling and slightly better motion dissipation and edge support. That said, if you're looking for a classic memory foam feel, you might like the Puffy's slow-moving feel better.
