Quick Answer: Layla is an American flippable copper-infused mattress starting at approximately $1,099 Queen in Canada, with a soft side and a firm side. The dual-sided design means you get two firmness options without buying twice, but Layla has no Canadian showrooms, and without testing both sides you are guessing which will work. Restonic ComfortCare ($1,619, 1,222 coils) at Mattress Miracle in Brantford can be tested in person.

Layla stands out in the crowded Canadian mattress market for two reasons: it is flippable, with a distinct soft side and firm side on one mattress, and it is copper-infused throughout the foam layers. Both features have real value for some sleepers and overstated value for others. This guide breaks down what Layla actually delivers and how it stacks up against Canadian alternatives.
What Makes Layla Different
Layla uses copper-infused memory foam as the primary comfort layer on both sides of the mattress. Copper is antimicrobial and provides some thermal conductivity, which can help pull heat away from the body. The soft side uses a 4-inch copper memory foam layer over a 2-inch transition layer; the firm side uses a 1-inch comfort layer over the same core, creating a much flatter feel.
Layla Canada pricing (approximate, CAD, early 2026):
- Layla Memory Foam Queen: approximately $1,099
- Layla Hybrid Queen: approximately $1,549
Layla offers a 120-night trial, lifetime warranty, and free shipping to Canada. There are no Canadian showrooms.
Layla in Canada
Flipping a Mattress in a Canadian Bedroom
The flippable design requires that you occasionally rotate the mattress from soft side to firm side. For a Queen mattress, this means physically flipping a 55 to 75 lb object, which is not easy alone and requires about 2 feet of clearance around the bed. In typical Brantford homes and apartments where bedroom space is limited, this can be impractical. The flippable design is most valuable when you are genuinely uncertain between soft and firm, but physically managing the mattress is a real consideration.

Layla vs Canadian Alternatives
Layla vs Endy
Endy ($895 Queen) is a single-sided medium-firm foam mattress. Layla Memory Foam ($1,099) is $204 more and offers two firmness options. If you are genuinely between soft and firm and want to experiment, Layla justifies the premium. If you know your preferred firmness, Endy offers equivalent core quality at a lower price. Both are Canadian-available but online-only in Brantford.
Layla vs Silk and Snow
Silk and Snow Original ($725 foam, $950 hybrid) undercuts Layla on price significantly. Silk and Snow is a Canadian brand (Sleep Country-owned) with a single-sided medium foam or hybrid construction. For sleepers who know they want medium firmness, Silk and Snow is better value than Layla. Layla's advantage is the dual-firmness option and the antimicrobial copper infusion.
Layla vs Restonic (Mattress Miracle, Brantford)
Restonic offers multiple distinct firmness levels across its range, from plush through firm, all available to test in the showroom. If the appeal of Layla is the ability to switch between soft and firm, the practical in-store equivalent is lying on both a Restonic ComfortCare ($1,619 Queen) and a Restonic Revive ($2,995 Queen) in person on the same visit, which lets you make a real comparison without the logistics of flipping a 75 lb mattress at home.
The Copper Infusion Claim
What Copper Actually Does in a Mattress
Copper is a thermal conductor and has documented antimicrobial properties in laboratory settings. However, the thermal conductivity effect in a mattress is modest: copper particles dispersed through foam do pull heat away from the body surface more efficiently than standard foam, but the effect is less pronounced than gel infusion or open-cell foam structure. Okamoto-Mizuno and Mizuno (2012) in the Journal of Physiological Anthropology confirmed that reducing sleep surface temperature improves sleep onset, which supports the value of any cooling technology, including copper. The antimicrobial properties are real but relevant mainly over long mattress lifespan (8 to 10 years).
Is a Flippable Mattress Right for You?
The flippable design makes sense if:
- You and your partner have significantly different firmness preferences
- You are recovering from an injury and may need to change firmness during recovery
- You genuinely don't know whether you prefer soft or firm
It makes less sense if:
- You have a clear firmness preference already
- Your bedroom is small with limited clearance for flipping
- You can test mattresses in person and confirm the right firmness before purchasing

Is Layla mattress available in Canada?
Yes, Layla ships to Canada with a 120-night trial, lifetime warranty, and free shipping. The Layla Memory Foam starts at approximately $1,099 Queen in Canadian dollars. There are no Layla retail showrooms in Canada, so all purchases are online-only.
Is copper in a mattress actually beneficial?
Copper infusion in mattress foam provides modest cooling benefits (copper conducts heat away from the body surface) and genuine antimicrobial properties over the long term. The cooling effect is real but less impactful than open-cell foam structure or gel infusion. The antimicrobial benefit becomes more relevant after several years of use.
How do I flip a Layla mattress?
Layla recommends flipping the mattress when switching between the soft and firm sides. A Queen Layla weighs approximately 70 to 90 lbs depending on the model. You will need at least 2 feet of clearance around the bed and ideally a second person to assist. Layla's website provides a step-by-step guide for flipping safely.
What is a Brantford alternative to Layla I can test in person?
Mattress Miracle at 441 1/2 West Street carries the full Restonic range across multiple firmness levels. Testing both a plush and a firm model in person will give you the same information that Layla's dual-sided design is meant to provide, without the uncertainty of guessing online.
