Firmness Info

Both MOLECULE mattresses are considered to be medium to medium-firm.

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

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).

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

Support Specs

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.

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

Fabric Specs

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.

The Nod Mattress cover is a viscose/polyester blend.
