Cover	Featuring the same cover used in other GhostBed models, the cover contains a proprietary formulation developed in Japan where cooling properties are woven directly into the fibers of the yarn, creating the Ghost Ice Fabric. The Ghost Ice Fabric is instantly cool to the touch, and will absorb and trap heat that is released by the body. Molecular changes in the fabric will neutralize the heat, keeping the sleeping surface cool.	Each Plus mattress comes with our Ultra Breathable Tencel technology designed to increase airflow and to keep you cool.

Comfort	3D Matrix Polymer Layer offers 3 dimensions of comfort:The 3D Matrix layer is an integrated thermal conductive gel polymer. As excess heat accumulates under and around the sleeper, it is absorbed into 3D Matrix layer. As a fully connected sheet, that absorbed heat travels away from the sleeper. Conventional Foam layers comfort you by compressing as different parts of the body "press" on the foam. The 3D Matrix layer is an omni directional layer which stretches in all directions to mold and contour to each individual part of the sleeper's body. The 3D Matrix layer is ergonomically designed which allows the sleeper to sleep on the mattress, NOT in it. The GhostBed 3D Matrix Mattress features the exciting new 3D Matrix technology. This new comfort layer technology is revolutionary because it automatically bio-adjusts to two different body shapes and body temperatures at the same time, creating the ideal sleeping environment for both sleepers. The 3D Matrix layer automatically bio-adjusts to both sleep partners through simultaneous heat diffusion and weight distribution - two critical elements in sound sleep. The 3D Matrix allows excess heat is drawn away from the body. The Gel Polymer layer stretches in all directions conforming to the body without causing it to sink into the mattress. Gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam.	Ultra breathable cover and hybrid design increase airflow to keep the mattress cooler. No more sweaty nights. Our special latex-foam hybrid alternative, designed to be denser to contour to your body. Uniquely pressure relieving, we use 4 pound Memory Plus Foam - a special, ultra dense and extra durable Helix blend.
Support	The core of the GhostBed 3D Matrix features the patented Ghost 3D Matrix innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edge support Design. With two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easier to sit comfortably without slipping off the edge plus you can sleep right on the edge without feeling like you'll fall off. The 3D Matrix ensures body weight is distributed evenly, relieving pressure and reducing the body's need to reposition itself, allowing each sleeper to wake up well rested, free of aches and pains, and energized to embrace the coming day. Ghost 3D Matrix Soft Transition Foam is one inch of pure pressure relief. This layer contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn. Individually wrapped coils provide that sturdy, responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses you're used to.	The new Helix Plus has higher density foams to match heavier sleepers and provide increased durability. The coil unit has best in-class edge support, so plus size sleepers never feel like they're falling off the mattress. An extra layer of high density, 4 pound foam is included in one of the three foam layers to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs. Firm Memory Foam provides ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a higher IFD to match your body type. Extra support. Hundreds of individual taller coils designed to cradle and support heavier weight. Reinforced perimeter to provide edge support. The bottom foam layer of the mattress provides base support and durability to the entire mattress.
