  • Halo Memory Foam
  • Point Elastic Airgocell Memory Foam
  • Supportive foam that relieves pressure
  • 7 different zones of pocket springs
  • HRX Supreme™ Foam. HRX stands for High Resiliency Extra

  • Anti-allergenic removable knitted cover

Comfort Info
Improved infinity pocket springs with a breathable layer of Point Elastic Airgocell foam work together to create a sleep environment that is both cool and comfortable all night long.
The increased size of the springs allows for improved airflow. The Point Elastic Airgocell foam absorbs and evaporates sweat, further regulating your temperature and ensuring a restful night's sleep.
Simbatex® foam has 30x more airflow than dense, standard memory foam. It is also infused with natural graphite, which has an excellent ability to draw away excess heat.

The 7 different zones of pocket springs are tailored to provide optimal support for specific parts of your body (head, shoulders, chest, lower back, hips, thighs, and feet). Combined with supportive pressure-relieving foam, our mattress provides exceptional support, aligning your spine and reducing pressure points for a truly restorative sleep experience, even as you change positions throughout the night.
