Idle has developed a mattress with an unique design.Idle Mattress Upside Down
Unlike other 2-sided bed-in-the-box mattresses which have a different firmness on each side, Idle produced their mattresses with the SAME firmness on both sides.
This was an idea that used to be common for lots of traditional innerspring mattresses up until the expenses got too expensive to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you might turn and opted for the less expensive to make one-sided variations.
Thanks to Idle Sleep, the dual sided flippable mattress is back.
This unique style allows you to flip the Idle over periodically to extend the life of the mattress and avoid any sagging or imprints from occurring. This is specifically beneficial when it comes to couples where one partner is much heavier than the other.

You have the choice of choosing 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 discover the Luxury Firm more supportive.
