The Princess is a decent mattress that's sturdy and provides a luxury cruise-like feel.

But they fall short in several places.

Their overall lack of transparency with product specifications and construction is a huge red flag for us.

Consider superior alternatives like Saatva Classic if you want a true luxury mattress experience that's built to last (+ fantastic policies).

Here are several relevant and useful comments from buyers considering or have already purchased Princess Cruise Mattress.

There are no online reviews, which is typically a red flag.

COMFORT OVERVIEW
Comfort, feel and overall firmness for Princess mattress is extremely subjective.

Firmness isn't the only factor to consider when you're mattress shopping.

Choosing the right bed starts with figuring out how your body responds to lying at different angles.

It's important to understand how a mattress relieves pain and distributes pressure on your sensitive points (neck, shoulder, upper back, lower back, arms, hips, legs), as well as how it feels for couples and sex.

COMFORT SUMMARY
Firmness is very subjective and varies a lot between people. Your firm might be someone else's soft.

Take caution when people make definitive claims about how a mattress will feel.

Princess Cruise's mattress is a single firmness luxury firm comfort level (about a 6.5 on a 1-10 firmness scale). All 3 sleep positions are accommodated well.

EDGE SUPPORT
• Good edge support due to it's pocketed coils.

Note: Edge support is a term used to describe how well mattress edges sustain concentrated weight without collapsing.

Good edge support is important. It helps your mattress last longer (less sagging) and creates a larger overall sleep surface (bonus for couples).

Don't be fooled by low-quality mattresses that appear to have good edge support at first. They break down faster and you'll end up with a bigger headache down the line.

SIDE SLEEPERS
• Your shoulders, hips and torso must evenly distribute support if you sleep on your side. Otherwise concentrated pressure causes long term nerve and pain-related issues.
• Should be comfortable for side sleepers. A good balance of spine alignment and pressure relief.

BACK/STOMACH SLEEPERS
• When you sleep on your back & stomach, your biggest concern should be finding a mattress that keeps your hips from sinking too far in. This knocks your spine out of alignment.
• Mattress falls into the medium-firm/firm range, which is great if you sleep on your back or stomach. Lots of coils and foam support.

MOTION TRANSFER

Motion transfer measures how much movement shifts from one side of the bed to the other. If you sleep with a partner who tosses and turns during the night, you'll want to get a mattress that offers effective motion isolation. Less motion transfer means you'll get more REM sleep.

Dissipates motion efficiently. Energy is evenly dispersed across the sleep surface.
