Firmness Info

It's designed to be universally comfortable with a medium firmness that can fit any sleep preference, body weight, and shape. It's not too firm, not too soft, but just right and a 5.0 on the 10.0 firmness scale. This perfect feel is achieved by our Nolah AirFoam™ that has the bouncy support of Latex and gentle body contouring of Memory Foam.

Comfort
Sleep Cool and Breezy Sleep easy with a heat-conductive copper-infused comfort foam, layered with innerspring coils and Sleep Recovery Technology™ for a cool-to-the-touch sensation. Stay cool throughout the night
The Nolah Mattress also sleeps cooler because Nolah is 100% temperature neutral and made entirely without the use of heat-trapping viscoelastic chemicals. Cooling Nolah AirFoam The top 2" of this cooling foam mattress is not temperature sensitive, unlike Memory Foam, so it sleeps cooler and contours better to your body.
Support

The Nolah Mattress is scientifically proven to provide 4X times less peak pressure on the hips, shoulders and back area compared to high-end memory foams. With a supportive bounce and zero motion transfer, you're are guaranteed to enjoy a deep, restorative sleep every night. Supportive Avena® Foam 1" support layer that's stronger and more durable than Latex. It also provides a healthy and responsive bounce to keep you sound asleep all night.
