Idle has created a mattress with a special style.Idle Sleep Company
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 a model that used to be common for numerous standard innerspring mattresses till the expenses got too expensive to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you might turn and opted for the cheaper to produce one-sided models.
In a bold move, Idle Sleep has brought back the flippable dual sided mattress.
This special style enables you to turn the Idle over occasionally to extend the life of the mattress and prevent any drooping or imprints from happening. This is particularly useful when it comes to couples where one partner is heavier than the other.

Idle Hybrid Mattress OverviewIdle Sleep Company
All Idle mattresses are made by hand in Colorado Springs, CO ever since 2017.
Idle has an extremely generous sleep trial period of 18 months which is about 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 industry– about 540 nights!
How is the Idle Hybrid Mattress Constructed?
Idle has 2 designs that are made with Certipur certified foams which means that they contain no PBDE’s, TDCPP or ozone depleters.
Idle mattresses are 14″ tall and smartly made with handgrips attached to the sides which make it easier to turn them.
They are likewise ideal 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 springs will provide support for your spine while the foam or latex will give cushioning support for pressure points.
Both are constructed of materials that are produced to help you sleep cool and get a good nights rest.
THE IDLE HYBRID

1 ″ Response Foam— This layer is developed with aerated foam which provides cooling and bounce.
2 ″ Cooling Buoyancy Foam— Made without visco elastic chemicals to remain cooler than memory foam and provides much better pressure relief for areas like hips and back.

The cover of the Idle latex hybrid is made of natural cotton and wool which are both breathable materials and assist with air flow and cooling.Idle Sleep Company
Latex tends to sleep very cool since it is aerated and won’t trap heat the in the same way a standard memory foam mattress does.
The layers are held together with button tufting instead of glue to make this a truly environmentally friendly mattress.
How firm is the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses come in 2 firmness choices: Medium and Luxury Firm.
You have the option of picking 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.
Larger people will discover the Luxury Firm more supportive.
EDGE SUPPORT
This is a measure of how firm 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
Even though there is some bounce with the Idle, there is a minimum amount of motion transfer. The separately wrapped coils isolate movement much better than standard inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box category this one may be a good choice if you sleep with a spouse or a pet so your sleep won’t be impacted by their movement.
