Firmness Info
Medium feel top of the bed you need - not too firm, not too soft. Our most common feel choice. Extra support - best for back and stomach sleepers, or side sleepers with larger body types. A 4-7 on the firmness scale.
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.

Support foam strengthens the comfort layers and adds long-lasting durability.
