ComfortCopper-infused Memory Foam whisks away your unwanted body heat allowing for a balanced temperature distribution throughout the night. Copper naturally works to provide you with a cool, clean sleep.What makes Puffy the perfect bed? The secret is consistency. You can expect the same comfortable and supportive sleep year-round - regardless of the environment. Thanks to an additional layer to both Puffy models that is made of our ClimateComfortย™ Foam, this foam provides high pressure-relieving capabilities across a broad range of temperature and humidity levels - making it resistant to the contraction and expansion that often occurs from extreme temperatures (often attributed to seasonal climate change). Specifically, it is designed to prevent contraction in the cold and expansion in the heat. Cooling Cloudย™ Comfort Layer We've got the competition beat! Our patent pending Cooling Cloud Memory foam disperses heat away from your body using convection and conduction allowing for more effective airflow. Puffy's Gel Infused Foam increases airflow 8x more than standard foam mattresses that you can purchase online, leaving you cool, comfortable and well rested.
SupportOur unique five-zoned cut foam provides just the right amount of support in all the right places. Each zone specializes in specific pressure point relief and lumbar support. The different cuts and contours in each of the five zones provides additional airflow.The Puffy Mattress is not only comfortable, but it's also strong and durable. Puffy's 6" Firm Support Layer and its Insta-Firm technology provides 99% better responsiveness and four times the support of standard mattresses. In fact, Puffy will be the most supportive mattress you ever sleep on! The base layer is a polyurethane foam (non-latex) manufactured with our VPF. It is a full six inches and provides exceptional support and spinal alignment for restorative sleep.
