I've had the best sleep of my life on Casper's high-tech $2,000 mattress — and I could never go back to a regular mattress

Earlier this year, I decided it was finally time to upgrade my mattress.

But I didn't just want a bigger mattress; I wanted a better mattress.

I'd heard many great things about Casper, which famously grew from a single person working on a single product to a team of over 30 people working out of an R&D lab in San Francisco. And after learning about Casper's first new mattress since 2014 — the high-tech Wave mattress, which starts at $1,095 — I knew I had to give it a try.

Casper was kind enough to send me a queen-sized review unit of the Casper Wave to try for myself, which retails for $1,995. In my experience so far, I've found it to be one of the best mattresses I've ever slept on, and well worth the investment if you care at all about getting good sleep at night.

Here's what it's like to use the $2,o00 Casper Wave:

Casper calls the Wave its "most innovative mattress." At $1,100 just to start, it's also the company's most expensive.

Whereas most mattresses out there are designed for the whole body — just uniform layers of material from head to toe — the new Casper Wave mattress considers every part of the body.

Compared to the traditional Casper mattress, which starts at $595, the $1,095-to-start Casper Wave is thicker, and features more layers in specific areas to target the important parts of the body, like the spine, shoulders, and hips.

This graphic from Casper breaks down the main differences between the Wave and the other two mattress types.

Compared to the traditional Casper's "Zoned Support," which is firmer under your hips but softer under your shoulders, the Casper Wave's "Hyper-Targeted Support" offers precise support for 36 different points all over your body to relieve pressure and help you sleep more soundly.

In building the Wave mattress, Casper's research and development team explored the details of different body types and how a mattress could provide just the right support where you need it.

"Your shoulders and your hips are the heaviest parts of your body, and if those parts aren't supported properly, you start to kink your spine," says Casper's design director Jesse Mayan.
