Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

If you've always loved traditional innerspring mattresses, but you're tired of wearing a groove in every mattress after just a couple of years, the GhostBed Flex is made for you. The GhostBed Flex has 7 layers:

  • Ghost Ice Fabric - Smooth, silky viscose-polyester blend
  • 1" Cool Fiber Layer - Creates air flow so you sleep cooler
  • 1" Gel Memory Foam - Gives that Ghost Hug feel
  • 1" Gel Memory Foam - Relieves pressure and wicks away heat
  • 1" Ghost Flex Soft Transition Foam - Reduces the urge to toss and turn
  • 8 .5" Individually Wrapped Support Coils - Enjoy the sturdy, responsive support of the traditional innerspring mattresses you're used to
  • 1" High Density Support Foam - Extra support and durability from the base up.

All the essential features at an affordable price. Featuring a 3 layer construction:

  • 2" RestoreFLO™ layer (Density: 2.5lbs, ILD: 9)
  • 3" RecoveryFLO™ layer (Density: 1.65lbs, ILD: 40)
  • 7" ContourFLO™ layer (Density: 1.5lbs, ILD: 35).

Comfort Info

Our 7-layer hybrid mattress fuses the springy support of individually-wrapped coils with the plush comfort of gel memory foam. Experience out-of-this-world comfort, with the best of both worlds.

Our engineers set out to develop the perfect recovery-focused mattress at an affordable price that still incorporates the key elements of Air-Engineering that sets MOLECULE apart. The MOLECULE 1 is the perfect combination of value and temperature-regulating features. Furthermore, Molecule mattresses are fabricated virtually emissions-free. Variable Pressure Foaming VPF™ is the most environmentally-friendly foam manufacturing process.

Support Info

The core of the GhostBed Flex features the patented Ghost Flex innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edge™ Support design. Individual 8.5" coils create the weightless feeling you love, while wrapping them individually creates minimal motion transfer. Plus, two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easy to sit comfortably without slipping off.

An ample seven inches of firm support foam in the base layer fosters healthy spine alignment.

Comfort Specs

Two one inch layers of special gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam.

Proprietary foam (RestoreFLO™) has enhanced and consistent airflow properties, even when compressed. The foam is infused with gel micro beads for ideal temperature and moisture management. Scientifically tested for long-lasting durability and comfort.

Support Specs

One inch of Ghost Flex Soft Transition Foam offers pure pressure relief. This layer of soft transition foam contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn.
Individual coils offer the responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses, without the worry of wearing out after just a few months. Additionally, the coils near the edge of GhostBed Flex are specially reinforced for better support - so you can sit on the edge of your bed without sliding off.

RestoreFLO™: Features exceptional pressure relief.
RecoveryFLO™: Precision-contoured 3D geometric surface provides targeted, self-adjusting support for different parts of the body. A 3-Zone dynamic response layer with smaller diamond zones for a softer feel around the head and feet and larger hexagon zones in the center designed for additional support and pressure relief in the lumbar region.

Fabric Specs

Cooling fiber is woven directly into the cover to help create airflow. Topped with Ghost Cooling Fabric for a refreshing feel.

Our advanced cover material features a unique combination of heat and moisture wicking technologies to further regulate the microclimate between your body and the sleep surface. As your body temperature changes throughout the night, an embedded temperature sensitive polymer, responds dynamically, adjusting evaporation and cooling. Cover is 98% Polyester, 2% Lycra.
