Lab Verdict
Cooling was a wash — both mattresses landed within half a degree of each other after 60 minutes of body heat. Nolah Evolution 15 isolated motion better for couples (0.09g vs. 0.11g on the Leesa Sapira Hybrid). Pressure mapping put both beds well under the 32 mmHg capillary-closure threshold for side sleepers. Perimeter compression was nearly identical — neither bed is the obvious pick on edge support alone. Nolah Evolution 15 returned more energy on rebound (58% vs. 41%), favoring combo sleepers.
