Firmness Info

The best way to feel the Casper Nova Hybrid is to take advantage of our 100-night, risk-free trial. If you're looking for a mattress that can sustain more weight, or you want to be lifted more than cradled, then our hybrids are a great choice.

Softer top of the bed to give you that plush comfort you love. Like sinking into a cloud. Balanced support - best for side sleepers with thin to average body types. A 2-3 on the firmness scale.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

Those who want a plush top layer without sacrificing support and cooling. Made with three layers of premium foam, plus foam-encased springs:

  • Breathable AirScape™ Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Polyurethane Foam
  • Contoured Memory Foam
  • Durable Base of Polyurethane Foam with Encased Springs.

The Sunset offers balanced support and a plush feel, it has four layers of construction:

  • Cover: Helix Two Touch Design
  • Comfort Layer: Memory Plus Foam (Density: 2.5 PCF)
  • Transition Layer: Helix Dynamic Foam
  • Body Shape Layer: 6" Wrapped Coils
  • Base Layer: DuraDense Foam.

Comfort Info

Cooling helps keep you at the right temperature for your best. Two layers of perforated breathable foam help reduce heat. Plus every mattress saves up to 70 recycled bottles from the environment.

Support Info

Superior plushness without sacrificing support. More support where you need it most with the plushness you crave. Zoned Support™ Pro offers 7 zones of targeted support for healthy spinal alignment, softer foam around the shoulders provides more relief to the upper body and multiple ergonomic points under shoulders, hips, waist and lower back.
A firmer border provides edge support to help you get in and out bed easily.

Specially designed using a Memory Plus Foam pressure relief layer to cushion your pressure points as a side sleeper.
Density of the top and middle layers optimized to give you the right amount of support based on your body type.

Comfort Specs

A top layer of proprietary perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat, the tiny holes move hot air and body heat away. With a thin coating of cooling gel that adds a refreshing feel. This innovative cooling system is designed to help keep you cool all night.
Second layer of AirScape™ helps prevent overheating. These air channels allow heat to escape.
Resilient springs increase airflow.

Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.

Support Specs

Premium AirScape™ foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure. This has a plush, velvety soft feel.
A second layer of supportive foam has 3 ergonomic zones to help align your spine and provide more relief.
A third layer with Zoned Support™ Pro relieves pressure under the shoulders, and provides more support under the waist, lower back, and hips to align your spine. These zones reinforce support from the layers above.
Fabric-wrapped springs provide active support and a little lift.

Helix Dynamic Foam
Providing ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a lower IFD to match your body type.
Wrapped Coils
Hundreds of individual coils help to cradle your body while also limiting motion transfer.
Edge Support
Each mattress has an individually wrapped spring unit with a reinforced perimeter. This means your mattress will reduce that roll-off feeling and will keep its shape more while sitting on the edge of the bed. Our technology is proven to be substantially better than all foam options.

Fabric Specs

A super plush and stretchy top. This velvelvety-soft layer makes bedtime feel extra cozy. Knit fabrics stretch in 4 ways so you feel the full benefits of the layers below. The added pillow-like fabrics cradle your body and make you feel as if you were sinking into a cloud.

Helix Two Touch Design
Each mattress comes with a top cover layer with stretch and a soft touch as well as a lower cover layer for airflow and breathability. Top cover - 100% soft polyester. Lower cover - Jersey knit fabric with woven fire barrier.
Upgrade to ultra cool knit cover for cooler nights (available at checkout). This Ultra-Cool Cover is designed using phase change material to keep your body cool when you sleep. Simply zip on the Ultra-Cool Cover in place of your standard cover for quick and easy use.
