Therapedic BackSense Potomac Plush
A softer, more comfortable value mattress with real support underneath
The Therapedic BackSense Potomac Plush is the softer version in the Potomac collection and one of the first mattresses in the Therapedic value range that feels genuinely soft while still being supportive.
It is a good choice for customers who want a plush surface but are not ready to move into a more expensive pillowtop, hybrid, or luxury mattress. It works well for guest rooms, RVs, second bedrooms, side sleepers, and shoppers who want a comfortable mattress at a moderate price.
Comfort and feel
The Potomac Plush has a soft, cushioned feel compared with the Potomac Firm. It offers more give at the shoulders and hips, making it a better option for side sleepers and people who dislike hard mattresses.
This is not an ultra-plush luxury bed. It is a value plush mattress — soft enough to give real pressure relief, but still practical in price and construction.
Best for
- Side or stomach sleepers
- Lighter-to-average-weight sleepers
- Guest rooms and second bedrooms
- RVs and vacation homes
- Shoppers who want plush comfort without premium pricing
- Customers who tried the Potomac Firm and wanted the same basic value story with a softer feel
Construction highlights
The Potomac Plush uses a comfort package that includes TheraSoft™ plush polyurethane quilt foam, additional polyurethane foam, a gel visco-elastic memory foam lumbar layer, support foam, and 5-zone plush polyurethane foam.
That layered comfort system gives the Potomac Plush more pressure relief than the firm version, while the innerspring unit underneath keeps the mattress from feeling too soft or unsupported.
Support system
The Potomac Plush uses a 13-gauge pocketed spring system. The listed spring counts are:
- Twin: 286
- Full: 396
- Queen: 504
- King: 648
Important details
- Plush comfort level
- Approximate 12- to 13-inch profile
- 5-zone plush foam comfort layer
- Gel memory foam lumbar layer
- Available in standard and RV Queen sizes
- Built in Rock Island, Illinois
- Can be paired with a standard or heavy-duty wooden foundation
Our final take
The Potomac Plush is a strong value choice for people who want something soft and supportive without overspending. It is especially useful for guest rooms and RVs because it gives a more comfortable first impression than many budget mattresses, while still staying in a reasonable price range.
