Firmness Info
The Nectar Essential Hybrid is a medium-firm mattress. With a 365-night trial, you can sleep on the mattress in the comfort of your own bedroom in both chilly winter nights and hot sticky summer nights before making a decision on whether you wish to keep it or get a refund.
On a firmness scale out of 10 (1 being soft and 10 being firm), the Original Hybrid mattress scores a 7, which makes it the firmest mattress in OTTY’s range.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
The Nectar Essential Hybrid has six layers designed to offer more responsive support. The layers are:
  • Quilted Cooling Cover
  • Pressure Relieving Memory Foam
  • Dynamic Support layer
  • Encapsulated Springs
  • Supportive Base
  • Positioning Base Material.
The OTTY Original Hybrid mattress is the flagship, multi-award-winning model and is where OTTY's journey began. It combines five layers to ensure you get the perfect night's sleep:
  • Luxurious Knit Cover
  • 2cm Temperature-Regulating Memory Foam
  • 2cm High Density Support Foam
  • 16cm Pocket Springs (up to 2,000)
  • AirFlow System + Side Support
  • 5cm High Density Base Foam.
Comfort Info
Six layers of life-changing comfort that minimise motion transfer so you can sleep without interruption and air flow that works to keep you cool. Free from nasties like heavy metals, harmful dyes, or ozone depleting chemicals.
Overheating at night is one of the most common reasons for poor quality sleep. This is why OTTY use many small perforations throughout the mattress layers (the AirFlow system), allowing fresh air to circulate throughout the mattress, removing excess heat and ensuring you stay cool, all night long.
Support Info
The Essential Hybrid is a 25cm thick deep sprung hybrid mattress, designed to offer more responsive support. Combining memory foam and 2 layers of premium foam, you'll get a hybrid experience like no other!
The Hybrid has a combination of springs and foam to create both support from the 16cm pocket springs and comfort from the foam. The springs are individually encased which reduces motion transfer, allowing you and your partner to sleep undisturbed.
Comfort Specs
Dynamic Support layer
Breathable open-cell foam that enhances air flow, regulating your body temperature. Encapsulated Springs
The springs are individually wrapped, allowing air to move freely and making the mattress more breathable.
Temperature-Regulating Memory Foam
Contains perforations in the foam to allow heat to escape, keeping you at the optimum temperature throughout the night. AirFlow System
Unique airflow technology that works alongside the other layers to allow heat to escape and regulate temperature.
Support Specs
Pressure Relieving Memory Foam
This memory foam layer is custom designed to provide comfort and support where your body needs it most. Encapsulated Springs
The spring unit is made of up to 600 individually wrapped, 15cm high gauge steel springs for added bounce, then the whole unit is encapsulated in support foam, to provide a whole nights comfort from the middle to the edge. Supportive Base
This layer works with the springs above to give you support. Positioning Base Material
This keeps your mattress in place so that it won't move around on your bed frame.
High Density Support Foam
This specially designed reflex foam is placed in the middle of the mattress and provides comfort as well as additional support. Pocket Springs
Up to 2,000 16cm tall encapsulated pocket springs are in every Original Hybrid. Springs are the king of support and create the perfect spine alignment and support for your joints and back, ensuring you wake up pain-free and ready for the day ahead. Side Support
The springs are bordered by a foam perimeter creating an edge-to-edge sleeping surface. High Density Base Foam
Creates a sturdy base for the mattress, ensuring longevity and preventing dips and sagging.
Fabric Specs
The quilted polyester cooling cover draws heat away from your body and circulates fresh air as you move in the night.
Luxurious Knit Cover
Made from 97% Polyester and 3% Spandex, this super soft sleeping surface is thanks to the thick knit cover that is both removable and machine washable at up to 40°C.
