Our Verdict

Nectar Premier Copper

Nectar Classic Hybrid

The Nectar Premier Copper and the Nectar Classic Hybrid are pretty evenly matched, and while the Premier Copper has a slight edge overall, they both have their strengths. Despite its medium-plush feel and all-foam construction, the Premier Copper has better edge support and responsiveness than the medium-firm Classic Hybrid, which has a pretty bouncy spring layer. The Classic Hybrid is more cooling, however, so it's a better fit for hot sleepers. Ultimately, your choice will probably depend on your priorities and whether you prefer a foam or hybrid model.
