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

Comfort Info

Variable mattress depths, available in both traditional and non-traditional sizes (including RV sizes), make this the perfect solution for every type of sleeper.

Support Info

The Dreamfoam Essential mattress delivers enhanced contouring and cooling with exceptional pressure point relief.

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

Gel swirl memory foam delivers added cooling.
Open cell technology in each foam layer provides increased airflow and breathability.

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

Support Specs

A top layer of quality memory foam delivers a more responsive sleep experience.
A 4" high-density foundation gives the mattress structural firmness as well as a durable core.

High-Grade Polyfoam
Providing ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a higher 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

An environmentally-friendly Nano Stain Terminator finish guards against splashes, spills and permanent stains.

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.
