Firmness Info

Our softest airfiber® core now in our signature modular mattress design. Optional pillow top layer adds plushness while you can still enjoy the supportive and breathable comfort we're known for.

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.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The New Airweave Mattress is 8" thick, softer, and ships in 2 boxes so assembly is required. Comes with 3 airfiber® pieces, pillow top layer (optional whether you use it) and 2 covers.

Proprietary memory foam technology & mattress design combines 3 layers of foam:

  • Cooling Gel Memory Foam
  • Bear Dynamic Foam
  • High-Density Support Foam.

Comfort Info

While foam and spring mattresses crowd landfills, airweave is composed of a recyclable plastic airfiber core. The lightweight modular design makes it easier to carry and wash your mattress. Great for frequent movers and a nod to traditional Japanese futon culture which is designed to be easily stored when not in use. Enjoy Airweave for a lifetime by easily replacing parts rather than having to buy (or throw out) your entire mattress. A win for your wallet and the environment.

Cooler Sleep
Graphite-Gel + high airflow, open cell Response Foam increase cooling and conductivity up to 7x more than traditional foam mattresses.

Support Info

We all toss and turn at night but only some mattresses allow us to do this with ease and a low level of motion transfer. Our resilient airfiber core provides you with a high level of support from every angle so you feel more like you're floating on top rather than sinking into your mattress. You'll exert less energy while sleeping allowing you (and your partner) to stay in a deeper more restful sleep.

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.

Comfort Specs

The interwoven airfiber core encourages airflow, which naturally regulates body temperature throughout the night to keep you comfortable. airfiber® disperses body heat and the heat of a blanket thanks to the unique ability to allow airflow through the material. Airweave gets rid of the usual problem of uncomfortable hotspots that most mattresses generate. Control the temperature of your overall sleep environment with the blankets you choose. During the winter, add a warmer blanket to hold in warmer, dispersed air. For warmer months, use a lightweight blanket and you'll enjoy a cooler airflow.

Graphite Gel Foam
Rapidly adapts to each individual's needed support and comfort while infused graphite gel particles promote a cooler night's sleep.

Support Specs

Airfiber is our proprietary technology and material that makes up the core of our mattresses. Through its unique interwoven design, airfiber helps you move easily, evenly distributes weight and allows airflow to help keep you in a deeper more restful sleep.

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.

Fabric Specs

Outer Cover: Polyester 100%, Inner Cover: Modacrylic 60%, Glass Fiber 40%. airweave is entirely washable to minimize dust and allergens. Simply remove the mattress cover to machine wash and rinse the airfiber core with water.
