The Luxe Memory Foam is the tallest of Nectar’s core foam models at 14 inches (36 cm). It uses the same 8-inch base and 3-inch support foam as the Premier, but the memory foam on top grows to 3 inches, three times what the Classic has.

Nectar describes it as medium and we rate it 5 out of 10, the softest of the three foam tiers. You sink into it noticeably, which takes pressure off the shoulder and hip when you lie on your side. Stomach sleepers and heavier back sleepers may find their hips dipping too far.

Three inches of memory foam also means the slow, hugging response that some people love and others find hard to move in. Heat is the usual caveat: an all-foam stack this thick holds warmth, so if you run hot the Nectar Luxe Hybrid is the better version.

A Queen lists at $1,399, double the Classic. The 365-night trial gives you a full year to decide whether the deeper hug is worth that gap.

Our verdict

Conclusion
“The Luxe Memory Foam is for side sleepers who want a soft, cradling bed and like the classic memory foam sink. For most other sleepers the Nectar Premier delivers more support for less money.”
