Firmness Info

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.

Plush comfort with firm support. The Nolah Signature is a soft/medium on the firmness scale, rated a 4-5 out of 10.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

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

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

The Nolah Signature has 75% more premium pressure-relieving AirFoam™️ than the Original 10" mattress, and has the following 4 layers:

  • 2.5" Plush Contouring Nolah AirFoam™
  • 1.5" Deep and Supportive High-Resilience Foam
  • 1" Firm Pressure-Relieving Nolah AirFoam™
  • 7" Reinforced High-Density Core Foundation Foam.

Comfort Info

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

The Signature 12" mattress offers the same ground-breaking benefits as the Original, but with next-generation technology and the added luxury of a second AirFoam™️ layer. This all-in-one mattress sleeps cool, provides unbeatable pressure relief, and withstands years of wear and tear. It makes memory foam mattresses look and feel outdated.

Support Info

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.

This luxury mattress relieves pressure on the neck, hips, and shoulders to reduce nightly aches and pains while providing perfect spinal alignment and lumbar support.

Comfort Specs

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

Nolah AirFoam™ is guaranteed to sleep cooler than memory foam. The generous 2.5" comfort layer keeps you cool.

Support Specs

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.

The plush AirFoam™ top layer provides unbeatable pressure relief and contours perfectly to your body without trapping you "in the mattress" like memory foam.
High-resilience foam in the second layer is stronger and more durable than memory foam and provides a healthy and responsive bounce to keep you sound asleep all night.
The firmer AirFoam™ used in the third layer elevates pressure relief. Without pressure points on your neck, hips, and shoulders, lying in bed will feel like floating on a cloud.
The base reinforces the support and contouring of the upper layers.

Fabric Specs

Breathable TENCEL™ Cover made with naturally soft, long-lasting and breathable TENCEL™ fibers. Clinically-Proven Celliant® Cover (optional) with Sleep Recover Technology™
This specialized, one-of-a-kind cover absorbs the body's natural heat and reflects far Infrared light back to the skin helping your body recover faster and sleep better.

Luxurious Organic Cotton Cover
When only the purest and best is good enough, Nolah turned to soft luxurious organic cotton. This signature, diamond-patterned, organic cotton cover is unbleached and free from harsh chemicals. It stays cool, is breathable, and wicks away moisture to keep you comfortable all night. It comes in an aesthetically-pleasing ivory color.
The border cover is made with premium four-way knitted poly-yarns, this cover was designed for durability. The bottom cover features a non-skid fabric to ensure the mattress doesn't move on the bed frame.
