Firmness Info

The 6" Dreamfoam Essential is the firmest option, rated a 7 to 9 on the firmness scale. The 8" Dreamfoam Essential is firm-medium (6 to 8 on the firmness scale), the 10" Dreamfoam Essential a medium-firm (5 to 7 on the firmness scale), the 12" a medium (4 to 6 on the firmness scale) and the 14" a medium-soft (3 to 5 on the firmness scale).

The Nod mattress offers a medium firmness, so it's perfectly in the middle in terms of feel. It's soft to the touch, but very supportive when you lay out on the surface as it responds to your weight.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Dreamfoam Essential mattress is designed for an elevated sleep experience at an everyday price. Two layers of construction:

  • 2" Gel-Swirl Memory Foam
  • 4" High-Density Base Support Foam
Note: Prices and construction based on the Firm 6" model.

Exclusive to Amazon, the Nod is 100% polyurethane foam and not comprised of their proprietary T&N Adaptive foam. It has 2 layers of construction:

  • 2.5" Comfort Layer of Responsive Foam
  • 5.5" Supportive Base Layer.

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.

The foam used in the Nod mattress is an open-celled polyurethane foam that we engineered to have the benefits of memory foam's pressure relief and latex's support, without their drawbacks (like memory foam's sinking and sleeping hot, and latex's lack of pressure relief). That said, both memory and synthetic latex foams are subsets of polyurethane foam.

Support Info

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

Being comfortable isn't all about a soft top layer, we designed our mattress to give you the support you need for a restful night's sleep.

Comfort Specs

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

We chose an open-cell foam which allows air to freely flow throughout the night, overcoming foam's reputation for sleeping hot.

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.

We designed our top layer to be adaptive without feeling like quicksand - cradling your pressure points and meeting you where you are.

Fabric Specs

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

The Nod Mattress cover is a viscose/polyester blend.
