Firmness Info

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.

Support Info

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

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.

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.

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.

Support Specs

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

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.

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.

Organic Cotton Cover
A cover of quilted organic cotton completes one of the world's healthiest and most comfortable natural latex mattresses.
