Our Verdict
Nectar Classic
Beautyrest Mattress
The Beautyrest Mattress is better than the Nectar Classic for most people. The Beautyrest has significantly better edge support, so it's more comfortable to sleep near the edge of the mattress. It's also much more responsive, so you're less likely to feel stuck in place, and it's slightly more cooling. That said, the Nectar offers better motion dissipation, so you might prefer it if you're a light sleeper. It also uses better-quality foam overall, although it's not a very durable mattress either.
