Beautyrest Black® Series Two 16.25" Plush Pillow Top Mattress
Couldn't load pickup availability
The honest verdict: the Series Two Plush Pillow Top is the deep-cushion plush of the Series Two line, a tall 16.25-inch build tuned to about a 3 out of 10. It is for side sleepers who want to sink into a genuine cloud, with the Series Two cooling step-up so all that cushion does not trap heat and the Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil core keeping your spine supported underneath. If you love a deep, pillowy surface and have been burned by soft beds that sag, this is the Black to lie on.
What it is, and the honest feel
This is the softest, most cushioned bed in the Series Two core line. A cool-to-the-touch cover and deep plush pillow top sit over SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam and Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam, all on a Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil support core. Lie on your side and your shoulder and hip get real room to settle in, which is the whole point of a 16.25-inch profile: depth for a proper cloud, not a thin topper over a hard base. Your waist and lower back stay held up while the pressure points sink, so your spine sits roughly level. That backbone under the cushion is the difference between a hybrid like this and plush foam that feels lovely for five minutes and unsupported by morning.
The cooling that separates Series Two
The meaningful step-up from Series One is heat. Series Two adds a cool-to-the-touch cover and Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam, a premium memory foam infused with diamond particles that pull warmth away from the body as you sleep. That cooling earns its keep most in a deep-cushion bed, because cushion is exactly where body heat tends to collect. Gel foam and a coil core that breathes more than all-foam round it out, so this runs cooler than a comparable all-foam plush. No mattress is air conditioning, but for a cloud this deep it stays honest about heat.
Who it suits, and who it does not
This is a side sleeper's bed first. If you want maximum cushion it is hard to beat in this line: the deep pillow top gives the shoulder and hip a place to land while the coils keep the spine supported. It also suits couples where one wants soft, because the pocketed coils move independently and a partner's movement barely crosses the bed.
The Mattress Overstock team would rather be straight about who should skip it:
- Back and stomach sleepers. A 3 out of 10 will likely let your hips dip below your shoulders, the opposite of what those positions want. A medium or firm Black is the better fit.
- Anyone who wants a more accessible plush. The Series One Plush Pillow Top gives a plush pillow-top feel at the entry tier and a lower 14.5-inch height.
- Anyone for whom a tall bed is a problem. At 16.25 inches plus a foundation it sits high; measure your frame and how you get in and out.
Living with it
Switching from an older soft bed that sagged in the middle? The pocketed-coil core keeps the plush from turning into a hammock, so what feels luxurious stays supportive. Plan for deep-pocket sheets at this height. The foams are CertiPUR-US certified, it carries a 10-year limited warranty, and it works on an adjustable base.

What makes this mattress different
Deep, tall plush pillow top
A generous cushioned surface at about 3 out of 10: the deepest, most pillowy feel in the Series Two core line.
Plush on top, coils underneath
The Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil core holds your spine level under the cushion, so plush never turns into sag.
Micro Diamond Memory Foam cooling
A premium memory foam infused with diamond particles draws heat away from your body, the cooling step-up that defines Series Two over Series One.
Cool-to-the-touch cover
The Series Two cover is built to feel cool the moment you lie down and to keep moving heat away through the night, which matters most in a deep-cushion bed.
SurfaceTouch Gel Memory Foam
Gel memory foam quilted right into the surface gives immediate pressure relief where your shoulder and hip land first.
Strong motion isolation for couples
Pocketed coils move independently, so a partner turning over barely crosses the bed, even with all this softness on top.
Tall 16.25-inch build, 10-year warranty
One of the tallest beds in Series Two: plan for deep-pocket sheets, check your frame height, and pair it with an adjustable base if you like. CertiPUR-US certified foams.
A deep cloud with a coil backbone
The Series Two Plush Pillow Top is the cushion end of the Series Two range, and the build is stacked top to bottom to give you sink-in softness without losing support.
The surface. A cool-to-the-touch cover sits over the deep plush pillow top, designed to feel cool the second you lie down. Quilted right into that surface is SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam, the layer your shoulder and hip meet first, for immediate pressure relief.
The comfort layers. Below the quilt sits Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam, a premium memory foam infused with diamond particles that pull heat away from the body as you sleep. This is the cooling step-up that separates Series Two from Series One, and it earns its keep here because deep cushion is exactly where body heat tends to collect.
The support core. All of that rides on the Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil® core, Beautyrest's most advanced individualized support and motion separation. Each coil responds on its own, so your waist and lower back stay held up while your pressure points sink, and a partner's movement barely crosses the bed.
At 16.25 inches it's one of the tallest beds in Series Two, which is the whole point: there's room for a real cloud here, not a thin topper over a hard base. The foams are CertiPUR-US certified, it carries a 10-year limited warranty, and it works on an adjustable base.

Five layers, engineered together: a cool quilted surface, pressure-relieving gel foam, and the Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil® core that defines the Black line.
The deep-cushion bed for side sleepers
Side sleepers: this is the bed. The deep pillow top gives your shoulder and hip a genuine place to sink while the coils hold your spine level. If a sore shoulder has woken you up because your last bed was too firm, start here.
Sleepers who want maximum cushion: at 16.25 inches this is the tallest, most pillowy model in the Series Two core line. Few beds give you this much to sink into.
Hot sleepers who still want soft: deep cushion usually means trapped heat, so the cool-to-the-touch cover and Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam matter here. It runs cooler than a comparable all-foam plush, though no mattress is air conditioning.
Couples where one wants soft: pocketed coils isolate motion, so the plush partner can settle in without waking the other.
Anyone replacing an old bed that sagged in the middle: the pocketed-coil core keeps the plush from turning into a hammock, so what feels luxurious on night one stays supportive years in.
Probably not for you if: you sleep on your back or stomach (a 3 out of 10 will likely let your hips dip below your shoulders, so try a medium or firm Black), or a tall, high-sitting bed is hard for you to get in and out of.

Frequently asked questions
How soft is the Series Two Plush Pillow Top?
A deep plush, about 3 out of 10, and the tallest, most cushioned plush in the Series Two core line. You sink into the pillow top, while the pocketed-coil core keeps the softness from sagging.
Will such a soft, tall bed still support my back?
Yes, that's the role of the Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil® core. Unlike a soft all-foam bed that can sag, the pocketed coils hold your spine level under the deep cushion. It's the case for a plush hybrid over plush foam.
What makes Series Two cooler than Series One?
Two upgrades you can point to: a cool-to-the-touch cover and Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam, a memory foam infused with diamond particles that draw heat away from the body. Both are built to move heat off the surface, which matters most in a deep-cushion plush like this one.
Does all that cushion sleep hot?
Deep cushion is where heat collects, which is why this model leans on Series Two cooling: the cool-to-the-touch cover, Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam, and gel foam over a breathing coil core. It runs cooler than a comparable all-foam plush, though no mattress is air conditioning.
What's inside it, layer by layer?
From the top: a cool-to-the-touch cover, a deep plush pillow top with SurfaceTouch™ Gel Memory Foam quilted into the surface, then Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam for cooling, all over a Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coil® support core. The build is 16.25 inches tall.
Is 16.25 inches too tall?
It's one of the tallest beds we carry, so check your frame height and plan for deep-pocket sheets. With a foundation it sits high, which some people love and others find hard to get in and out of, worth feeling in person.
How does it compare to the Series One Plush Pillow Top?
The feel is similar, plush and pillowy, but Series Two adds the cooling step-up (cool-to-the-touch cover plus Micro Diamond™ Memory Foam) and a taller build. The Series One Plush Pillow Top gives a similar plush feel at the entry tier and a lower 14.5-inch height.
Is it good for couples?
Yes. The Triple-Stranded Pocketed Coils move independently, so a partner turning over barely crosses the bed. It's a strong pick when one person wants soft and both want to sleep undisturbed.
