Idle has created a mattress with a distinct design.Idle Sleep Colorado
Unlike other 2-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 typical for numerous traditional innerspring mattresses till the costs got expensive to produce them. Then mattress companies stopped offering the ones you might turn and opted for the cheaper to produce one-sided models.
In a daring move, Idle has actually revived the flippable 2-sided mattress.
This unique style allows you to flip the Idle over periodically to prolong the life of the mattress and avoid any sagging or indentations from taking place. This is particularly beneficial in the case of couples where one partner is larger than the other.

Idle Hybrid Mattress OverviewIdle Sleep Colorado
All Idle mattresses are hand made in Colorado Springs, CO since 2017.
Idle has a really generous sleep trial period of 18 months which is about 540 days. If at anytime within that trial duration you choose Idle is not the right mattress for you, they will coordinate a return 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?
Idle has 2 models that are made with Certipur certified foams which means that they contain no PBDE’s, TDCPP or ozone depleters.
They are both 14″ high, 2-sided and feature carry handles for ease in handling the mattresses.
They are also ideal for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combo sleepers (individuals that rotate between positions during the night.)
People with back pain may find that a hybrid mattress provides them some relief because the pocketed coils will support your back while the foam or latex will provide cushioning support for pressure points.
You can sleep cool on these mattresses because the fabrics that they are made out of are known for their cooling properties.
THE IDLE HYBRID
1 ″ Quilted Foam Cover— Contouring foam is woven into the top layer which provides it softness.
1 ″ Response Foam— This layer is developed with aerated foam which supplies cooling and bounce.
2 ″ Cooling Buoyancy Foam— Made without visco elastic chemicals to stay cooler than memory foam and offers far better pressure relief for places 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.
2 ″ Cooling Buoyancy Foam— explained above.
1 ″ Response Foam— described above.
1 ″ Quilted Foam Cover— described above.
The Thermocool fabric cover will help keep regulate the temperature, so you will sleep comfortably.
IDLE LATEX HYBRID
Available with Dunlop or Talalay latex.
Cover— This all cotton cover actually has a 1-inch layer of natural wool woven into it to supply more comfort and additional softness.
3 ″ Gel Buoyancy Foam— Talalay or 100% Natural Dunlop Latex layers supplies cooling and bounce to the mattress as well as providing it more firmness than ordinary memory foam. The latex is naturally hypoallergenic and has anti-microbial qualities, too.
6 ″ Pocketed Coils— This layer has high quality steel pocketed innerspring coils that serve as the core support of the mattress.
They go all the way to the edge of the mattress for optimal firmness from edge to edge.
3 ″ Gel Buoyancy Foam— described above.
1 ″ Top— described above.
This mattress is made with 100% organic cotton, wool and natural latex which are fabrics that are recognized for their cooling qualities.Idle Sleep Colorado
Latex tends to sleep very cool since 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 a green method.
What is the firmness of the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses come 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 discover 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 best support whether you are resting on the edge or sleeping near it.
MOTION TRANSFER
There is not much movement transfer although these mattresses do have some bounce. The separately enclosed coils isolate movement better than traditional inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box classification this one may be a great option if you sleep with a significant other or a pet so your sleep will not be impacted by their movement.

- Mattresses sleep cool
