Firmness Info

While we designed the Bear Mattress to have a solid core support with a nice touch of softness on top for comfort, we would categorize the mattress as a medium-firm. Certain independent reviews for comparison on mattress firmness rate the Bear Mattress a 7.1 on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being most firm.

Our dual comfort design offers two variations: the top side of the mattress is firm; the bottom side is ultra-firm, allowing for an easily flippable, highly customizable sleep.

Comfort
Cooler Sleep. Graphite-Gel + high airflow, open cell Response Foam increase cooling and conductivity up to 7x more than traditional foam mattresses. Graphite Gel Foam. Rapidly adapts to each individual's needed support and comfort while infused graphite gel particles promote a cooler night's sleep.
Engineered to reduce pressure on your circulatory system the Plank provides for better blood flow - and better lower back support, compelling you to inhale more oxygen while you snooze.
Support
Not too firm, not too soft, the Bear Mattress is a perfect blend of cooling comfort, contouring pressure relief and core support designed for all body shapes and all types of sleepers. Offering just the right amount of bounce, Response Foam offers unparalleled pressure relief and pressure mapping for optimal spinal alignment. Support foam strengthens the comfort layers and adds long-lasting durability.
The Plank offers a firmer, flatter, flippable surface for a neutral spine position that's better for your back and posture overall. A 2" layer of our firmest transitional TitanFlex foam adds deep compression support. A 7" high density base foam ensures durability and stability for the life of your bed.
