Rating: 3.7/5 (17 votes cast)

Zinus Memory Foam Cloud Mattress contains three models, 8-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch. These models have few differences except name and thickness. This series has several layers not just two or three and each layer plays a different role. Upper layers are created for providing conforming comfort and lower ones are offering rigid support for your body to land. It’s a typical multiple layer mattress. It’s versatile and accommodating people of various builds and sleep positions. Both heavy and lightweight persons will experience just right sinkage and needed support. This Zinus memory foam cloud like mattress doesn’t feature any gel cooling layer but that doesn’t mean it’s a hot mattress. Few owners report they feel overheating or wake up in sweat. This mattress isn’t American made and completely made in China. If you’re looking for 100% US made mattress, this isn’t the one for you. And it seems being made in China does cause some problems. Read the rest to learn about why owners love it and some dislike it.

Zinus Cloud Memory Foam Mattress Features

Neutral sleep temperature

Zinus Memory Foam Cloud-like Mattress isn’t sleeping hot like other memory foam mattresses. It doesn’t have any gel infused foam layer. Its different design makes it feels not cool or hot. Standard memory foam mattresses usually have a memory foam top layer in contact with our body. Body heat is easily retained in the memory foam and makes us feel overly warm. But in this Zinus Cloud-like mattress, there are two layers on top of memory foam and sleepers aren’t directly laying on it. Top layers absorb and dissipate most body heat and little left to transfer to memory foam layer.

Firmness grade: 5 (1-10 softest to firmest)

Cloud-like is referring to top layers instead of the whole mattress. So it’s not on soft side being too soft. The top comfort layers give you enough depth to sink in but the support layer is rigid and solid. The deeper you go the firmer you feel. Responsive foam and memory foam will let you sink easily to create Cloud-like feel. Compared to other Zinus models, it’s softer and a good choice for people who want to feel like sleeping in a cloud.

This mattress is medium to soft, exactly. This series of Zinus was once named Ultra Plush Cloud-like but they removed Ultra Plush recently. They also updated the product images. I guess they must have heard what customers complain. Many customers reported the mattress wasn’t that plush as described and it felt hard as a rock (which should be attributed to loose quality control). They wanted a soft bed but got a firm one. The product name caused the misconception about firmness. Zinus corrected the name and removed the phrase Ultra Plush. But they didn’t change anything in the mattress except the name and images. It’s still the mattress before.

Made in China

Zinus Memory Foam Cloud-like Mattress is imported from China and there is no doubt it’s made in China. It’s difficult to decide being made in China is an advantage or disadvantage. China-made products are cheap and affordable but they tend to have poor quality control. There is a risk that we will get low quality or lemon models. Oppositely, US made tend to have better quality and durability and also higher price. It’s glad to see Zinus is offering an excellent risk-free 30 day trial. Even if you buy a defective model, you can return it within 30 days. The return policy minimizes the risk that owners bear. For people who don’t want to spend thousands on a mattress, it’s a reasonable choice.

Cheap price

The biggest advantage of China-made Zinus memory foam is it’s very cheap. A 12-inch queen size is less than 2000 at the time of this writing. Many 12-inch mattresses imported from China are $400 at least. Why do we pay extra for the mattress also made in China if we can get the same quality at much lower price? Make a wise decision.

Warranty

Zinus Cloud-like mattress comes with 10 year limited warranty. Like many other brands, it only covers invisible sag greater than 1.5 inches. If your mattress has defects in workmanship and materials, they will replace or repair it. And customers need to pay for replacement or repair. The warranty states electric heating pad cannot be used on the mattress and it will void the warranty. A mattress protector is required to protect from staining.

Zinus Memory Foam Cloud-like Mattress Downside

Some customers reported their mattress didn’t expand to the height it supposed to. It’s the fault of poor quality control. Zinus needs to pay more attention their quality and improve pass rate. But this isn’t the end of the world because it has 30 day free return. Once you find you get a defective mattress, contact customer service for return or replacement.

Zinus Memory Foam Premium Cloud-like VS Zinus Green Tea Mattress

1. Dual 3.5-inch base support foam VS one 5-inch thick layer

Only 12-inch versions of two mattresses have difference in support foam. Dual separate foam bases increase airflow inside but one piece offer a solid foundation. Personally I prefer Cloud-like base construction.

2. medium vs firm

This mattress is named Cloud-like but it doesn’t sleep like cloud. Zinus just wants to tell us it’s the softest mattress among all their products. Green Tea mattress feels nearly the same as Gel green tea, which is firmer. Cloud-like tends to have 5 stars and Green Tea have 7 stars, with 1 to 10 stars 10 being the firmest.

3. which is hotter

Two mattresses don’t have gel foam and they’re not hotter than each other. Actually, sleeping hot or not depends on the sheets that you use. Some people feel overheating and wake up in a sweat on all types of mattresses. If you’re one of this kind, get a cooling sheet made of Egyptian cotton or silk-like. It will help a lot.

4. Other differences

Memory foam mattresses are lack of edge support. It doesn’t change in these two mattresses. But due to default firmness, Green Tea is better than Cloud-like. Cloud like feels more dense where you sink.

    I’m very big at 260 and my husband is 210. Which one do you recommend in this series, 10 or 12 inches? Is 10 inch good enough for us?

  5. Chrisinna says:

    I can’t decide between green tea or ultra plush cloud 12″ queen, I have back pain and am side sleeper. 160lb female.

    I’m worried one will be too firm or too soft. HELP!

    Thank yoU!

      Hi Chrisinna, Very sorry for such a late reply. Both two mattresses aren’t soft mattresses and Ultra Plush feels comparably softer than green tea. Your weight doesn’t make you feel too soft even on a soft mattress. I think you probably feel too firm on both mattresses. I recommend you to choose ultra plush because it’s less firm.
      William
