Firmness Info

The Birch Mattress was designed with a medium-firm feel. If you're looking for something softer, we offer a Plush Pillow Top that lays directly on top of your Birch to provide an extra soft layer - this 3" pillow top can be purchased after you receive the mattress if you do want a softer feel or with your mattress.

The Nectar Premier is plush but highly supportive. Around a 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale. You have a full 365 nights to try the mattress in the comfort of your own home. Nectar Premier is the result of strategic engineering for comfy, cool, and supportive slumbers for all sleeper styles. So whether you sprawl like you're single or conk out on your side, Nectar's ideal ratio of softness, firmness and support works for you.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Birch mattress was designed by Helix, the team behind the leading mattress brand in customized sleep. Birch takes those learnings in comfort and uses all natural and organic materials. The Birch mattress is a 6 layer construction:

  • Cover - Organic Cotton
  • Fire Retardant Cover - Wool
  • Comfort Layer - Birch Wool
  • Pressure Relief Layer - Natural Talalay Latex
  • Support Layer - Individually Wrapped Coils
  • Base Layer - Wool Batting.

The Nectar Premier Memory Foam Mattress features 13" of premium materials and has 3 layers:

  • 3" Memory Foam with Surface-Infused Phase Change Material (PCM) Gel (Density: 3.5 lbs, ILD: 10)
  • 3" Memory Foam (Density: 2.5 lbs, ILD: 18)
  • 7" PU Support Foam (Density 1.8 lbs, ILD: 36).

Comfort Info

Our materials come from nature - whether it be wool sustainably sheared from New Zealand sheep or latex tapped from trees. These premium materials are comfortable on your body and conscience.

While Nectar uses cooling materials in the cover, Nectar Premier builds on this by using ActiveCool memory foam, which dynamically adjusts to individual body heat. So if you sleep hot, it wicks your heat and stores it. If you sleep cool, it releases stored heat to help warm you. And with the Premier, you get the cooling cover, too. So you, or you both, or you all sleep even-steven and wake up like hibernation's over.

Support Info

We spent countless hours finding the right density of latex, quantity of wool, and type of steel springs to provide unprecedented comfort and pressure relief.
Each mattress features a reinforced perimeter for best in class edge support. The coils that run along the outside of your mattress are actually firmer, so no more feeling of falling off the bed when lying down or sitting on the edge.

More Cradling And Contouring. Less Motion Transfer.
The Nectar Premier features an innovative memory foam with a higher density than what is found in traditional foam products. The increased density helps provide superior pressure relief for a plush, floaty rest.

Comfort Specs

100% all natural & organic Birch Wool provides unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation. Birch Wool is designed to retain shape with a natural elasticity of each fiber.
Talalay latex is up to 7 times more breathable than other types of latex. Natural latex is also hypoallergenic and anti-microbial.

The top 3-inch layer of gel-infused memory foam with phase-change material (PCM) helps provide temperature regulation while you sleep. (Designed in labs to react to your rising and dropping body temperatures, auto-adjusting to your temperature as you sleep.)

Support Specs

Natural Talalay latex provides response to cushion your pressure points while giving support. Our latex is carefully managed to ensure consistency.
Hundreds of individual steel coils help to cradle your body and provide support, while also limiting motion transfer. Additionally, the reinforced perimeter coils provide best in class edge support.

The top memory foam layer helps provide cushioning for the body at its most sensitive areas, like the pressure points. This is often described as the much-loved, traditional "memory foam" feel: softness, cushion, pressure relief, comfort, etc.
The second memory foam layer, or the transition layer, is intended to help provide resistance against the body as you lay down on top of the mattress. If you were to jump onto your mattress, this layer prevents you from feeling the base support layer of foam.
The base support layer is intended to provide solid support for the layers above it. It helps give structure and stability for all of the other components to perform as desired.

Fabric Specs

The Birch Mattress has a cover that is made using natural, organic cotton. It is designed to be highly breathable with a subtle stretch and soft touch.

A soft, breathable poly-blend cover featuring heat wicking, cooling technology. Polyethylene, which is known to help draw heat away from the body, thus providing a slight "cooling sensation" to the touch. Constructed using alternating nylon and polyethylene yarns. These materials are known to provide give, thus promoting and enhancing the benefits of the memory foam layers beneath it.
