Firmness Info

The mattress for those who love the feeling of truly luxurious sleep and are looking for a medium-firm feel, essential cooling and pressure relief features. This mattress has two upgrade options available:

  1. Cooling Upgrade: If you're looking for a medium-firm feel, but tend to be a hot sleeper or live in a warmer environment, our Beautyrest Black with Cooling Upgrade is perfect for you.
  2. Cooling + Comfort Upgrade: This mattress is for those looking for the pressure relief of a plush pillow top without sacrificing cool sleep.

The Nod mattress offers a medium firmness, so it's perfectly in the middle in terms of feel. It's soft to the touch, but very supportive when you lay out on the surface as it responds to your weight.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

Beautyrest Black is our premier line, and proudly features our greatest innovations, so you can wake up feeling your very best every day. The Beautyrest Black (L-Class Medium) is a five layer design:

  • 0.5" Plush Comfort Foam
  • 1" Medium Comfort Foam
  • 1.5" Energy Foam
  • 0.5" Beautyrest® Gel Memory Foam
  • T3 Pocketed Coil® Technology with BeautyEdge®.
Tip: there are many models under the Beautyrest Black name so be careful when comparing instore with online that the codes are the same! Mattresses purchased online come with a 100-night in-home trial and free White Glove delivery: delivery, setup, and removal of your old mattress.

Exclusive to Amazon, the Nod is 100% polyurethane foam and not comprised of their proprietary T&N Adaptive foam. It has 2 layers of construction:

  • 2.5" Comfort Layer of Responsive Foam
  • 5.5" Supportive Base Layer.

Comfort Info

If you choose to upgrade:

  1. Cooling Upgrade: Has all the features of the Original plus an additional layer of memory foam (RightTemp™ Memory Foam) infused with highly conductive and durable carbon fiber which makes this up to 20% cooler than the Black Original.
  2. Cooling + Comfort Upgrade: has the same comfort layers as the Cooling Upgrade plus an additional 2" layer of GelTouch® Foam that offers airflow and breathability.

The foam used in the Nod mattress is an open-celled polyurethane foam that we engineered to have the benefits of memory foam's pressure relief and latex's support, without their drawbacks (like memory foam's sinking and sleeping hot, and latex's lack of pressure relief). That said, both memory and synthetic latex foams are subsets of polyurethane foam.

Support Info

Hand-picked Technoluxe foams are designed to reduce pressure on key spots like hips and shoulders.
Our T3 Pocketed Coil® Technology is designed to reduce motion transfer, absorb energy, and provide durability.
BeautyEdge® for reliable edge support. If you choose to upgrade:

  1. Cooling Upgrade: Has all the support features of the Original.
  2. Cooling + Comfort Upgrade: has two additional inches of high quality memory foam (GelTouch® Foam) for even better pressure relief than the Cooling Upgrade, especially around areas like the hips and shoulders.

Being comfortable isn't all about a soft top layer, we designed our mattress to give you the support you need for a restful night's sleep.

Comfort Specs

We chose an open-cell foam which allows air to freely flow throughout the night, overcoming foam's reputation for sleeping hot.

Support Specs

The Technoluxe Memory Foams system includes more, higher quality memory foams than in any Beautyrest mattresses. These Technoluxe foams are designed to offer sophisticated pressure relief.
Our T3 Pocketed Coil® Technology (our most advanced spring support yet) provides our best support and durability while also preventing partner disturbance.

We designed our top layer to be adaptive without feeling like quicksand - cradling your pressure points and meeting you where you are.

Fabric Specs

Most advanced cooling technology: BlackICE™ 4.0 is a combination of cool-to-the-touch fabrics and heat-wicking materials like silver and SilkAir™ fiber. The High Airflow SilkAir™ Fiber which is super breathable, to help you stay cool throughout the night.

The Nod Mattress cover is a viscose/polyester blend.
