Comfort
Our materials come from nature - whether it be wool sustainably sheared from New Zealand sheep or latex tapped from trees. These premium materials are comfortable on your body and conscience. 100% all natural & organic Birch Wool provides unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation. Birch Wool is designed to retain shape with a natural elasticity of each fiber. Talalay latex is up to 7 times more breathable than other types of latex. Natural latex is also hypoallergenic and anti-microbial.
Specifically designed mattress to keep even the warmest of sleepers cool. You don't have to be a hot sleeper to love iComfort. You just have to like your sleep environment to be refreshingly comfy. Three cooling upgrades available: Cooling Upgrade (CF2000): 11.5" Additional cooling and firmer support. Max Cooling Upgrade (CF3000): 12.5" Cooler and more breathable. Max Cooling & Pressure Relief Upgrade (CF4000): 13.5" Feels and sleeps cooler, with air support layer to take pressure off joints. Every iComfort mattress is made with our exclusive Carbon Fiber Memory Foam. This system channels heat away from your body. Gel Active® Max Foam (used only in CF2000 model) is an open celled memory foam helps promote airflow, so you don't have that hot, stuffy feeling when falling asleep. UltraCold System™ (used in the CF3000 and CF4000 models) The layer of extra-cool Carbon Fiber Memory Foam is engineered to work hard at absorbing excess heat from your body, then channel it away, all while you sleep comfortably.
Support
We spent countless hours finding the right density of latex, quantity of wool, and type of steel springs to provide unprecedented comfort and pressure relief. Each mattress features a reinforced perimeter for best in class edge support. The coils that run along the outside of your mattress are actually firmer, so no more feeling of falling off the bed when lying down or sitting on the edge. Natural Talalay latex provides response to cushion your pressure points while giving support. Our latex is carefully managed to ensure consistency. Hundreds of individual steel coils help to cradle your body and provide support, while also limiting motion transfer. Additionally, the reinforced perimeter coils provide best in class edge support.
Multi-layered foam technology adds support, resilience, and temperature regulation for the coolest, most comfortable sleep ever. Carbon Fiber Memory Foam provides exceptional strength for back and neck support. Air Support™ Foam (used only in CF4000 model) moves with your body and contours around it to help alleviate aches and pains caused by pressure points.
