Made in	United States	United States
Unique points	The Bear Pro hybrid has 4 foam layers: Breathable Quilt Cover Cooling Gel Memory Foam Bear Dynamic Foam Full Individually Encased Coils plus Perimeter Edge Support	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	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.	The SleepOvation mattress is meant to relieve back-pain and correct your sleeping posture, it does feel on the firmer side but not because the mattress itself is firm - but because it's correcting your spine. It's actually a very comfortable plush mattress, but someone who suffers from severe back pain, will feel the mattress to be much stiffer than someone with a healthy spine. It's difficult to compare our mattress to the traditional firmness standards of other mattresses simply because nothing like the 700 tiny mattresses exist.
