Firmness Info

We designed the Bear Hybrid with a nice plush, quilted top so you feel like you are on top of a cloud, but your back and body will love the firmer core support. Overall, it would be rated a medium mattress, and on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being most firm, Bear Hybrid is categorized as a 6.

Two comfort levels within the one mattress, 80% of latex customers choose a Luxury Plush comfort range (a 4-5 on the firmness scale). It conforms and supports your body effortlessly while still maintaining an ultra-luxurious, plush feel. The Gentle Firm side is 18% firmer than Luxury Plush, for those who want a slightly firmer feel. Gentle Firm still provides uplifting, pressure-free support (a 7-8 on the firmness scale). How do you choose a Zenhaven comfort level? You simply flip the mattress over.

Ergonomic Handles
Comfort
Copper-infused Memory Foam whisks away your unwanted body heat allowing for a balanced temperature distribution throughout the night. Copper naturally works to provide you with a cool, clean sleep.
Zenhaven's American-made Talalay latex offers a range of health benefits. It's naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to mold, microbes and dust mites. It contains no volatile organic compounds or other harmful substances found in chemical-based bed foams. And it has a uniquely resilient feel that elevates and conforms to your body for perfect support, total comfort, and a truly restorative night's sleep. Latex has an open cell structure that allows air to circulate freely, countering body heat and providing cool, comfortable sleep. This natural air flow gives you a mattress that's seven times more breathable than other types of latex.
Support
Our unique five-zoned cut foam provides just the right amount of support in all the right places. Each zone specializes in specific pressure point relief and lumbar support. The different cuts and contours in each of the five zones provides additional airflow.
By varying the size and distribution of the "pinholes" formed during the Talalay process, we created a seamless mattress layer with 5 distinct zones of density, providing Zenhaven with firmer support beneath the torso and shoulders and more subtle support elsewhere. The result is pressure-free support and better spinal alignment. Natural latex is the best-kept secret in sleep, and once you have experienced it, nothing else will do. It instantly responds to every curve of your body for pressure-free support and incomparable comfort on both traditional and adjustable bases. A Zenhaven exclusive, our Talalay latex comfort layers feature a proprietary 5-zone design that gives you firmer support where you need it for the ultimate in comfort and spinal alignment.
