Idle has created a mattress with a special design.Idle Mattress Zipper Cover
Unlike other dual-sided bed-in-the-box mattresses which have a different firmness on each side, Idle developed their mattresses with the SAME firmness on both sides.
This was an idea that used to be common for lots of standard innerspring mattresses up until the expenses got expensive to produce them. Then mattress companies stopped offering the ones you might flip and opted for the more affordable to produce one-sided versions.
In a daring move, Idle Sleep has brought back the flippable dual sided mattress.
This distinct style makes it possible for you to turn the Idle over periodically to lengthen the life of the mattress and avoid any drooping or indentations from occurring. This is particularly beneficial in the case of couples where one partner is larger than the other.

Idle Hybrid Mattress OverviewIdle Mattress Zipper Cover
Made by hand in the U.S.A., Idle Sleep has actually been making mattresses ever since 2017.
Idle has a really generous sleep trial period of 18 months which is around 540 days. If at anytime within the 18 month trial you choose Idle is not the right mattress for you, they will coordinate a return with you or donation and refund 100% of your purchase cost. Idle’s trial is the longest in the market– about 540 nights!
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, ozone depleters or TDCPP.
They are both 14″ high, 2-sided and include handgrips for ease in turning over the mattresses.
They are also excellent for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combination sleepers (individuals that rotate between positions during the night.)
People with back pain may certainly find that a hybrid mattress provides them some relief from pain because the pocketed coils will provide support for your spine while the latex or foam will give cushioning support for pressure points.
Both are constructed of materials which are developed to help you sleep cool and get a good nights rest.
THE IDLE HYBRID
1 ″ Quilted Foam Cover— Contouring foam is woven into the upper layer which provides it softness.
1 ″ Response Foam— This layer is created with aerated foam which supplies cooling and bounce.
2 ″ Cooling Buoyancy Foam— Made without visco elastic chemicals to remain cooler than memory foam and offers much better pressure relief for areas like back and hips.
6 ″ Pocketed Coils— This layer serves as the core support of the mattress with high quality steel pocketed innerspring coils that go all the way to the edge of the mattress.

6 ″ Pocketed Coils— This layer has high quality steel pocketed innerspring coils that act as the core support of the mattress.

3 ″ Gel Buoyancy Foam— described above.
1 ″ Top— described above.
The Latex Hybrid is made with 100% organic cotton, wool and natural latex which are fabrics that are known for their cooling qualities.Idle Mattress Zipper Cover
Latex tends to sleep very cool because it is aerated and will not trap heat the in the same way a conventional memory foam mattress does.
The layers are held together with button tufting rather than glue making this a truly environmentally friendly mattress.
What is the firmness of the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses can be found in 2 firmness choices: 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 people will find the Luxury Firm more supportive.
EDGE SUPPORT
This is a measure of how firm the bed is around its perimeter.
The coils on the Idle Sleep mattresses go right to the edge of the mattresses to offer the best 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 very small quantity of motion transfer. The separately enclosed coils isolate motion far better than standard inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box class this one might be an excellent alternative if you sleep with a partner or an animal so your sleep will not be affected by their movement.
