Comfort
Our 7-layer hybrid mattress fuses the springy support of individually-wrapped coils with the plush comfort of gel memory foam. Experience out-of-this-world comfort, with the best of both worlds. Two one inch layers of special gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam.
The Simba® 5000 PRO Flex Mattress is 14" deep. Our Simbatex memory foam is infused with graphite for cooling. Wool layer - Naturally temperature regulating and a dream for hot sleepers. Whatever the season you can rest cool and rest easy. Our softest sleep surface - With an even thicker knitted cover we’ve layered on the lux – without compromising airflow.
Support
The core of the GhostBed Flex features the patented Ghost Flex innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edge™ Support design. Individual 8.5" coils create the weightless feeling you love, while wrapping them individually creates minimal motion transfer. Plus, two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easy to sit comfortably without slipping off. One inch of Ghost Flex Soft Transition Foam offers pure pressure relief. This layer of soft transition foam contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn. Individual coils offer the responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses, without the worry of wearing out after just a few months. Additionally, the coils near the edge of GhostBed Flex are specially reinforced for better support - so you can sit on the edge of your bed without sliding off.
Up to 5,000 25mm conical pocket miQro™ springs, made with British Steel, enclosed in a 100% polyester pocket. More springs, more comfort - More British Steel miQro™ springs mean greater airflow and better body weight distribution. Plush, lush, gravity-defying comfort.

Delivery Information

Free white glove delivery and setup - You have a choice between having your Simba mattress delivered via shipping courier or via Sleep Country’s White Glove Delivery Service. With their White Glove Delivery Service your mattress will be delivered to your doorstep and placed in your bedroom, while following all COVID-19 safety protocols.
