Memory foam has low resiliency and is famous for its
soft, slow recovery and body-contouring, pressure-relief. (if you’re imagining someone jumping on a bed with a wine glass, you’re on the right track). While it can be ideal for side-sleepers or anyone seeking pressure relief, preference plays a large part in its application.

Some people love it, swear by it, would never sleep on anything else. Others dislike the “sunken-in” feeling that the first camp prefers. As always, it’s ultimately a matter of taste.

Better bounce and resiliency than memory foam and more pressure relief than H.R. options, means hybrid foams are designed to be a happy medium. If you want something that’s middle of the road, some combination using this material may be just the ticket. It’s versatile, comfortable, and has found its way into many of our constructions.

An open-cell design provides a high degree of airflow. Rather than trapping your body heat as you sleep, this design makes your mattress more breathable to avoid over-heating.

At the far end of the resiliency spectrum lies the bounciest foam of them of all: latex-like, high-resiliency (HR) foam. We refer to it as “latex-like” simply because it is polyurethane foam that has been engineered to mimic the feel and properties of latex foam (which can be very heavy and cost-prohibitive). This is the “anti-memory foam.”  If you jump on it, trust us, you’ll bounce.

If you dislike memory foam’s slow recovery feel, or just prefer to a bit more support, this might be the foam for you.
