Bear Original vs Dreamfoam Essential

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.

The 6" Dreamfoam Essential is the firmest option, rated a 7 to 9 on the firmness scale. The 8" Dreamfoam Essential is firm-medium (6 to 8 on the firmness scale), the 10" Dreamfoam Essential a medium-firm (5 to 7 on the firmness scale), the 12" a medium (4 to 6 on the firmness scale) and the 14" a medium-soft (3 to 5 on the firmness scale).
