There are two things that make this mattress unique. First of all, it is entirely made in the US, which means higher quality control. The second thing regarding this mattress is that it is marketed with a slightly different strategy. Unlike its competitors’ mattresses which are suitable for all body types and all kinds of sleepers, this one is extremely precise in these terms. The manufacturer believes that separate mattresses should be made for different body types as a perfect mattress for everyone cannot be made.
Therefore, whether you choose Twin, Full, Queen, King, or California King, you need to know that this mattress is made primarily for the people who have average to bigger body. On the other hand, they also believe that if you have the adequate body figure, you will not have to worry about the sleeping position on this mattress.
Features of Sleep Innovations Shiloh 12″
Foam Layers
Although it is 12-inch thick, this mattress has only two layers of memory foam. The upper layer, which is located beneath the cover, is 2.5-Inch thick and it is a SureTemp memory foam which provides great comfort for the people of average and big body size.
The layer beneath it is, on the other hand, more responsible for keeping the mattress in place and lower the possibility of sagging, noise, motion transfer and enhancing the edge support. This lower layer is 9.5-inch thick, and it is one of the thickest support layers in the industry of memory foam mattresses.
back to menu ↑Quality of material and durability
The mattress is offered with two different types of cover. The first type is a smooth polycotton cover, and it is made for people who like their mattresses in one piece and simple in looks. The second type is a quilted cushioned cover, and it consists of two parts. The upper part is white, and it has extra cushioning with a modern pattern design while the lower part is plain gray, also in patterns.
We were not able to find any official certification for the memory foam of this mattress. However, if we take into account the popularity of this product (number of customer reviews and number of ratings), we can conclude that there were no serious problems the quality and durability. The only thing that may bother you for the first couple of weeks, however, is the smell.
back to menu ↑How it feels
The manufacturer marketed this mattress with “lightly cradling comfort” description. Furthermore, the level of firmness is medium, but the users mostly reported as firmer than described. In fact, many mattresses with memory foam have this problem of being unexpectedly firm. However, their purpose is not to be soft but to be comfortable, and on that scale, Sleep Innovations’ mattress scores 9/10.
As mentioned previously, the edge support is mainly dependent on the lower layer of memory foam, and the 9.5-Inch thick base support here will make sure that the edges never become sloppy. Generally speaking, memory foam mattresses have a tendency to become sloppy after a couple of years, but this one extends that period to decades.
Furthermore, noise in this mattress virtually does not exist and the chance of you waking up to the sound of the mattress is minimal. This can be very useful if you are a light sleeper and when even the most quiet sound can wake you up.
Apart from noise, motion transfer is also minimal, and you will not feel that you are sleeping next to somebody at all, no matter how much they toss and turn.

Overall sleep experience
There are no reports of some extreme negative cases when it comes to the overall sleep experience on this mattress. However, the only thing that many users saw as discomforting is the smell of rubber that comes with the mattress. All other reviews for mattresses state the same problem, and it is kind of a universal problem for memory foam mattresses – they all smell for the first couple of weeks.
The smell can be fought by adding another cover of yours, which is freshly washed and ready to use. What you must never do with this mattress is take its original cover off because the warranty will become void once you do that.
back to menu ↑Pricing
The price range for this mattress is usually under 500$ but it may fluctuate so we suggest to have a look price history below. This is not the example of an affordable mattress, but certainly it will not break a bank and it’s still way cheaper than products from brands like Tempur-Pedic, Sealy, Beautyrest and ect. Mattresses within similar price range include Sleep Innovations Alden 14-inch Memory Foam Mattress and Brentwood Home Bamboo Mattress, Gel Memory Foam, 13-Inch
