Bear Original vs Saatva Zenhaven Latex

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.

Two comfort levels within the one mattress, 80% of latex customers choose a Luxury Plush comfort range (a 4-5 on the firmness scale). It conforms and supports your body effortlessly while still maintaining an ultra-luxurious, plush feel. The Gentle Firm side is 18% firmer than Luxury Plush, for those who want a slightly firmer feel. Gentle Firm still provides uplifting, pressure-free support (a 7-8 on the firmness scale). How do you choose a Zenhaven comfort level? You simply flip the mattress over.

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

• Cooling Gel Memory Foam

Pure tree-tapped latex and advanced 2-in-1 comfort innovation create the ultimate sleep experience.

• 1" Organic Wool Layer (both sides of Zenhaven have a flame-retardent barrier made of 100% organic New Zealand wool, not chemicals, which also adds breathability and moisture-wicking properties)
• 2x 1.5" 100% Talalay Latex "5-Zone" Comfort Layers (N2 - gentle firm side, N1 - luxury plush side)
• 2x 3" 100% Talalay Latex Support Cores (N4 - gentle firm side, N3 - luxury plush side).

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

Zenhaven's American-made Talalay latex offers a range of health benefits. It's naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to mold, microbes and dust mites. It contains no volatile organic compounds or other harmful substances found in chemical-based bed foams. And it has a uniquely resilient feel that elevates and conforms to your body for perfect support, total comfort, and a truly restorative night's 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.

By varying the size and distribution of the "pinholes" formed during the Talalay process, we created a seamless mattress layer with 5 distinct zones of density, providing Zenhaven with firmer support beneath the torso and shoulders and more subtle support elsewhere. The result is pressure-free support and better spinal alignment.

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

Latex has an open cell structure that allows air to circulate freely, countering body heat and providing cool, comfortable sleep. This natural air flow gives you a mattress that's seven times more breathable than other types of latex.

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.

Natural latex is the best-kept secret in sleep, and once you have experienced it, nothing else will do. It instantly responds to every curve of your body for pressure-free support and incomparable comfort on both traditional and adjustable bases. A Zenhaven exclusive, our Talalay latex comfort layers feature a proprietary 5-zone design that gives you firmer support where you need it for the ultimate in comfort and spinal alignment.
