Lab Verdict
Layla Hybrid ran measurably cooler in our 60-minute body-heat test (2.5°F surface rise vs. 3.3°F on the Nectar Memory Foam). Nectar Memory Foam isolated motion better for couples (0.06g vs. 0.1g on the Layla Hybrid). The Nectar Memory Foam relieved more shoulder pressure for side sleepers (29 mmHg vs. 31 mmHg). Perimeter compression was nearly identical — neither bed is the obvious pick on edge support alone. Responsiveness was comparable; repositioning effort should feel similar on either.
