Firmness Info

Medium feel top of the bed you need - not too firm, not too soft. Our most common feel choice. Balanced support - best for side sleepers with thin to average body types. A 4-7 on the firmness scale.

The Bear Pro is rated a 6.5 on the firmness scale, with 1 being soft and 10 being firm. The Pro's responsive foams provide medium-firm support and the perfect amount of bounce. Contours and cradles the body, but with a nice bounce. Pressure point relief for Side Sleepers who don't want their arms to fall asleep at night. Just the right amount of bounce for Back Sleepers who don't like the "sinking" feeling of too much memory foam.

Ergonomic Handles
Comfort
Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.
Hot Sleepers Take Comfort The combination of cooling gel memory foam and individually encased coils offers heat absorption with greater airflow to combat those hot nights. Reduces trapped body heat while you sleep
Support
Specially designed using a Memory Plus Foam pressure relief layer to cushion your pressure points as a side sleeper. Density of the top and middle layers optimized to give you the right amount of support based on your body type. High-Grade Polyfoam. Providing ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a medium IFD to match your body type. Wrapped Coils. Hundreds of individual coils help to cradle your body while also limiting motion transfer. Edge Support. Each mattress has an individually wrapped spring unit with a reinforced perimeter. This means your mattress will reduce that roll-off feeling and will keep its shape more while sitting on the edge of the bed. Our technology is proven to be substantially better than all foam options.
Adapts to Your Shape and Sleep Position Our responsive and supportive foams contour to your body's shape. Keep the pressure off of your back, hips and shoulder in any sleep position. Feel supported no matter how you sleep
