The unique design of the Idle Sleep mattress will interest a great deal of individuals.Idle Sleep Hybrid Mattress Reviews
Unlike other dual-sided bed-in-the-box mattresses which have a different firmness on each side, Idle created their mattresses with the SAME firmness on both sides.
This was an idea that used to be typical for lots of conventional innerspring mattresses till the expenses got too expensive to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you could flip and went with the cheaper to make one-sided variations.
In a bold move, Idle has actually brought back the flippable 2-sided mattress.
This unique style allows you to turn the Idle over occasionally to prolong the life of the mattress and prevent any sagging or imprints from taking place. This is particularly advantageous when it comes to couples where one partner is bigger than the other.

How is the Idle Hybrid Constructed?
Idle has two models that are made with Certipur certified foams which indicates that they contain no PBDE’s, ozone depleters or TDCPP.
Idle mattresses are 14″ tall and designed with handgrips attached on the sides which make it easier to turn them.
They are also ideal for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combo sleepers (individuals that rotate between positions during the night.)
The hybrid mattresses are also preferred for people with back pain because the coils will give your back support while the foam or latex 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.

The cover of the Idle latex hybrid is made from natural cotton and wool which are both breathable materials and aid with airflow and cooling.Idle Sleep Hybrid Mattress Reviews
Latex tends to sleep very cool because it is aerated and won’t trap heat the in the same way a conventional memory foam mattress does.
The layers are held together with button tufting instead of glue to make this a truly natural mattress.
What is the firmness of the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses come in 2 firmness possibilities: Medium and Luxury Firm.
You have the option 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 discover the Luxury Firm more supportive.
EDGE SUPPORT
This is a measure of how supportive the bed is around its perimeter.
The coils on the Idle Sleep mattresses go right to the edge of the mattresses to offer 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 quantity of motion transfer. The individually wrapped coils isolate motion much better than traditional inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box class this one may be a good alternative if you sleep with a spouse or a pet so your sleep will not be affected by their movement.
