The unique design of the Idle Sleep mattress will appeal to a lot of individuals.Idle Hybrid Latex Mattress Review
Unlike other dual-sided bed-in-the-box mattresses which have a different firmness on each side, Idle created their mattresses with the SAME firmness on both sides.
This was a model that used to be common for many standard innerspring mattresses up until the costs got expensive to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you might flip and went with the cheaper to produce one-sided versions.
In a bold move, Idle has actually brought back the flippable 2-sided mattress.
This distinct design enables you to flip the Idle over periodically to extend the life of the mattress and prevent any sagging or imprints from occurring. This is especially helpful in the case of couples where one partner is heavier than the other.
