Idle has created a mattress with an unique style.Idle Sleep Location
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 a model that used to be common for numerous traditional innerspring mattresses until the costs got too expensive to produce them. Then mattress companies stopped selling the ones you might turn and chose the less expensive to make one-sided variations.
Thanks to Idle Sleep, the 2 sided flippable mattress is back.
This special style makes it possible for you to turn the Idle over periodically to lengthen the life of the mattress and avoid any sagging or indentations from occurring. This is especially beneficial in the case of couples where one partner is bigger than the other.

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, TDCPP or ozone depleters.
They are both 14″ tall, 2-sided and include handgrips for ease in handling the mattresses.
They are also suitable for all sleepers: side, stomach, back and combo sleepers (people that turn 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 latex or foam will cushion your pressure points.
You can sleep cool on these mattresses because the fabrics that they are made out of are known for their cooling qualities.

Latex tends to sleep very cool due to the fact that it is aerated and won’t trap heat the in the same way a traditional memory foam mattress does.
Instead of using glue to keep the mattress layers together, Idle Sleep uses button tufting which is a green method.

You have the option of deciding upon 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.

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

Compared to other hybrids in the bed-in-a-box category this one might be an excellent alternative if you sleep with a significant other or an animal so your sleep won’t be affected by their movement.
