Essential information

	Douglas	SleepOvation
Type	All Foam	Hybrid (coils and foam)
Launched	2009	2017
Brand	Good Morning	SleepOvation
Made in	Canada	United States
Unique points	Douglas mattresses are made with Canadian-built foams and fabrics. Three layers of high-quality foam: The top 2" comfort layer is made of ecoLight™ cooling gel foam The middle 2" layer is made of Elastex™ foam The bottom 6" support foam isolates movement and provides better edge support The washable cover is made from an eco-friendly Natural Eucalyptus Fabric™.	Our "Tiny Mattress" technology is the most significant mattress invention in the last 100 years. There is no other mattress on the market that compares to our one-of-a-kind technology and it's GREENGUARD Gold Certified. We take a 3" piece of high density hybrid foam optimized for our technology, cut out a 2.25" x 2.25" rectangular cylinder, and then encase it in a fabric pocket. We then attach the Cushion Pocket to a .078" high carbon steel pocketed coil spring to create our patented "Cushion Pocket Spring", better known as the "Tiny Mattress". Finally, we combine roughly 700 of these "Tiny Mattresses" to create a mattress that reacts independently to personal weight and size.

Firmness info	Experience balanced support and pressure-point relief with our medium-firm foam mattress.

Medium Plush Firmness The 700 Tiny Mattresses independently respond to each sleepers' personal weight and size. When you initially sit on the mattress, it feels very plush because all of your weight is concentrated on a few tiny mattresses. As you lie down, your weight is evenly distributed across all the tiny mattresses for a firmer and more supportive feel. The ingenuity of the "tiny mattresses" provide the back support of a firm mattress with plush comfort for a very luxurious feel.

FAQs

Douglas

How often should I rotate my mattress?

It is recommended to rotate mattresses every 4 to 6 months. This is particularly important if there is a significant weight difference between the people using the bed. Rotating a mattress involves turning it 180 degrees, effectively making the foot of the bed the head, and vice versa. This allows the mattress surface to recover from prolonged body indentations, contributing to its longevity.

Is the Douglas mattress good for back pain?

Yes, the Douglas mattress, with its medium-firm feel, is often recommended for individuals experiencing back pain. This firmness level aids in maintaining proper spinal alignment.

Is the Douglas mattress hot?

The Douglas mattress uses Tencel fabric in its cover to draw moisture away from the body, aiding in cooling. However, individuals who are prone to overheating may still find it too warm.

SleepOvation

Can you flip the SleepOvation mattress?

The SleepOvation mattress is not designed to be flipped. It's constructed with coils for support and small squares of memory foam for comfort, and flipping it would disrupt this design.

How much is a SleepOvation mattress?

The SleepOvation mattress, which features the company's proprietary cushion pocket system, is priced a bit higher than other mattresses on the market. Customers can expect to pay around $1,600 for a Twin and $2,200 for a California King.

Who is the owner of SleepOvation?

SleepOvation is owned by Richard Codos, who is the company's Founder & CEO and the inventor of the "tiny mattress" independent support system.
