The unique design of the Idle Sleep mattress will interest a lot of people.Idle Mattress Opening
They have actually made a mattress with the SAME firmness on both sides which helps this mattress stick out from other 2-sided bed-in-the-box brands that have a different firmness alternative on each side.
This was a concept that used to be common for lots of traditional innerspring mattresses until the expenses got too high to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you could flip and went with the cheaper to make one-sided variations.
Thanks to Idle Sleep, the dual sided flippable mattress is back.
This distinct design allows you to turn the Idle over periodically to lengthen the life of the mattress and avoid any sagging or imprints from occurring. This is specifically helpful in the case of couples where one partner is bigger than the other.

Idle Hybrid Mattress OverviewIdle Mattress Opening
Handcrafted in the USA, Idle Sleep has been making mattresses ever since 2017.

How is the Idle Hybrid Mattress Constructed?
Both the Idle Hybrid and the Idle Latex Hybrid are made with Certipur certified foams which means that they consist of no PBDE’s, TDCPP or ozone depleters.
They are both 14″ tall, 2-sided and feature carry handles for ease in flipping over the mattresses.
They are also well-suited for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combination sleepers (people that turn between positions during the night.)
The hybrid mattresses are also preferred for people with back pain because the springs will give your spinal column support while the latex or foam will cushion your pressure points.
You can sleep cool on these mattresses because the materials that they are made out of are known for their cooling properties.

Latex tends to sleep really cool because it is aerated and won’t trap heat the way a conventional memory foam mattress does.
Rather than using glue to keep the layers together, Idle Sleep uses button tufting which is an eco-friendly method.
What is the firmness of the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses come in 2 firmness options: Medium and Luxury Firm.
You have the choice of picking out a mattress with 2 Luxury Firm sides, 2 Medium sides or Medium on one side and Luxury Firm on the other side.
The Medium is around a 6.5 out of 10, where 10 is the firmest. The Luxury Firm is around a 9 out of 10.
Heavier individuals will find the Luxury Firm more supportive.
EDGE SUPPORT
This is a measure of how supportive the bed is around its boundary.
The coils on the Idle Sleep mattresses go right to the edge of the mattresses to provide the very best edge support whether you are resting on the edge or sleeping near it.
MOTION TRANSFER
Even though there is some bounce with the Idle, there is a minimum amount of motion transfer. The separately wrapped coils isolate motion much better than traditional inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box class this one might be a good option if you sleep with a spouse or an animal so your sleep won’t be disturbed by their motion.
