Idle has actually created a mattress with a special style.Idle Sleep Hybrid Reviews
Unlike other flippable 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 typical for lots of traditional innerspring mattresses up until the expenses got too high to produce them. Then mattress brands stopped offering the ones you could turn and chose the more affordable to manufacture one-sided versions.
In a bold move, Idle Sleep has actually brought back the flippable dual sided mattress.
This unique style allows you to turn the Idle over occasionally to prolong the life of the mattress and prevent any drooping or imprints from taking place. This is especially helpful when it comes to couples where one partner is bigger than the other.

Idle Hybrid Mattress OverviewIdle Sleep Hybrid Reviews
Handmade in the U.S.A., Idle Sleep has been making mattresses since 2017.
You can try out an Idle mattress risk free in your house for a full 18 months to choose if Idle is comfortable for you. If at anytime within the 18 month trial you decide Idle is not the best 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 two models that are made with Certipur certified foams which means that they contain no PBDE’s, ozone depleters or TDCPP.
They are both 14″ tall, 2-sided and incorporate handgrips for ease in moving around the mattresses.
They are also excellent for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combo sleepers (people that rotate between positions throughout the night.)
People with back pain may find that a hybrid mattress gives them some relief from pain since the pocketed coils will provide support for your back while the latex or foam will give cushioning support to 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 cover of the Idle latex hybrid is made from natural cotton and wool which are both breathable fabrics and aid with air flow and cooling.Idle Sleep Hybrid Reviews
Latex tends to sleep really cool since it is aerated and won’t trap heat the in the same way a conventional memory foam mattress does.
Rather than using glue to hold the mattress layers together, Idle Sleep uses button tufting which is an environmentally friendly method.
How firm is the Idle?
The Idle Sleep mattresses can be found in 2 firmness options: Medium and Luxury Firm.
You have the choice 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 individuals will find the Luxury Firm more supportive.
EDGE SUPPORT
This is a measure of how firm the bed is around its border.
The coils on the Idle Sleep mattresses go right to the edge of the mattresses to offer the best support whether you are sitting on the edge or sleeping near it.
MOTION TRANSFER
Despite the fact that there is some bounce with the Idle, there is a minimum amount of motion transfer. The individually enclosed coils isolate motion better than conventional inner springs. Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box class this one may be an excellent option if you sleep with a significant other or an animal so your sleep will not be disturbed by their movement.
