Firmness Info

It's designed to be universally comfortable with a medium firmness that can fit any sleep preference, body weight, and shape. It's not too firm, not too soft, but just right and a 5.0 on the 10.0 firmness scale. This perfect feel is achieved by our Nolah AirFoam™ that has the bouncy support of Latex and gentle body contouring of Memory Foam.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The 9" PacBed Original is back and better than ever! Leaner and lighter than the 11" version, the PacBed Lite still offers the great comfort and support that you expect from the PacBed, but at a lighter price. A 2-layer construction:

  • 3" 3lb Density CoolRest® Advanced Gel-Infused Memory Foam
  • 6" 2lb Density High Quality Support Foam
  • Smooth Knit Cover.

10" Tall 3-Layer High-Resilience Polyurethane Foam Construction:

  • 2" Pressure relief Nolah AirFoam™
  • 1" Latex-Like Support Foam
  • 7" High-Density Polyurethane Foam
  • Botanic Origin Tencel™ Cover.

Comfort Info

Support foam created to work in tandem with our CoolRest® Gel memory foam and provide perfect support for consistent and long lasting comfort.

The Nolah Mattress also sleeps cooler because Nolah is 100% temperature neutral and made entirely without the use of heat-trapping viscoelastic chemicals.

Support Info

High quality support foam designed to support and correctly align your spine so you can sleep better with less tossing and turning.

The Nolah Mattress is scientifically proven to provide 4X times less peak pressure on the hips, shoulders and back area compared to high-end memory foams. With a supportive bounce and zero motion transfer, you're are guaranteed to enjoy a deep, restorative sleep every night.

Comfort Specs

Open cell structure increases air flow, contributing to a cooler sleep.
3 lb density memory foam rebounds (takes it shape) quicker making it easier to change positions.

Cooling Nolah AirFoam™
The top 2" of this cooling foam mattress is not temperature sensitive, unlike Memory Foam, so it sleeps cooler and contours better to your body.

Support Specs

CoolRest® advanced gel-infused memory foam perfectly contours to your body providing improved pressure relief to reduce tossing and turning.

Supportive Avena® Foam
1" support layer that's stronger and more durable than Latex. It also provides a healthy and responsive bounce to keep you sound asleep all night.

Fabric Specs

Soft polyester knit cover for comfort and stretch, perfect for memory foam. Polyester fabrics and fibers are incredibly strong and durable, resists abrasion and dries quickly. Breathable for better temperature control. Accentuates the memory foam feel.

Botanic Origin Tencel™ Cover
New snow-white Tencel™ cellulosic cover of botanic origin defines a new standard of sustainability and natural sleep comfort.
