Firmness Info

Award-winning comfort, signature "just right" feel. It's a medium-firm feel and support.

On a scale of 10, our mattress has a 6.5 firmness level. We like to refer to it as a "medium firm" - soft at the top, firmer in the middle.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Casper Original is good for sleepers of all kinds who want both support and cooling. Three layers of construction:

  • Breathable Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Memory Foam
  • Durable Polyurethane Support Foam.

Each component of the MOLECULE mattress has been engineered to work synergistically to maximize support, comfort and heat dissipation for the best recovery-focused sleep. Featuring a 4 layer construction:

  • 1" BioCharge™ layer
  • 2" AirTEC™ layer
  • 3" RecoveryFLO™ layer (Density: 1.65lbs, ILD: 40)
  • 6" ContourFLO™ layer (Density: 1.5lbs, ILD: 35).

Comfort Info

A layer of Airscape™ perforated breathable foam increases airflow and circulates air so you don't get too hot at night.

Better sleep leads to peak performance. It's not just the quantity of your sleep, it's the quality. Your body restores itself most during Slow Wave Sleep - replenishing blood and oxygen and releasing essential hormones. Sleep scientists and athletes engineered Molecule's unique sleep system so you benefit from the most revitalizing stage of rest, optimizing your body's recovery and performance.

Support Info

Premium foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure.
Zoned Support™ provides a layer of memory foam with 3 ergonomic zones to help align your spine and provide more relief.
The durable base is engineered to prevent sinking and sagging while supporting your whole body.

The firm base support fosters healthy spine alignment.

Comfort Specs

Stay cool all night with the innovative cooling system. AirScape™:

  • A top layer of perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat.
  • Tiny holes move hot air and body heat away.

The most restorative rest happens when your body temperature is cooler. Only Molecule offers this revolutionary airy, extreme open-cell structure for consistent cooling even when compressed by your body weight. Cozy support with more than seven-times the airflow of traditional memory foam. Active people need more support and airflow than traditional egg-crate foam mattresses can deliver.

Support Specs

Get all-night comfort with the innovative support system. Zoned Support™:

  • 3 zones of targeted support for proper spinal alignment.
  • Softer foam around the shoulders provides more relief to the upper body.
  • Firmer foam under the hips, waist, and lower back helps align your spine.

Ergonomically-engineered Molecule features a meticulously-engineered matrix of hexagon-shaped channels that respond to your unique anatomy and promote airflow even at the deepest depression points. You awake refreshed with relief from sore muscles and joints. Larger hexagon zones in the center designed for additional support and pressure relief in the lumbar region. Varying hexagon zone density around the legs and feet to support the lower body.

Fabric Specs

Planet-friendly textiles. Up to 57 recycled bottles in each cover.

Cover is 98% Polyester, 2% Lycra. It wicks away heat and moisture to keep skin comfortably cool. As your body temperature changes throughout the night, Molecule's advanced cover material responds dynamically, adjusting evaporation and cooling. Microban® antimicrobial treatment keeps your mattress fresh and clean.
