| Comfort | The only smart mattress with advanced cooling and heating technology designed to help you fall asleep faster and keep you asleep. | The Leesa Hybrid mattress combines Leesa's premium cooling and pressure-relieving foams with an advanced pocket spring system that actively responds to your body's pressure points throughout the night. As your body presses into the mattress, Leesa Hybrid's individually-wrapped coils gently push back, providing unparalleled support, edge to edge. Cooling Premium Foam The 1.5" top layer is a high performance 3.75 lb high density foam. This performance layer does not retain heat, is hole-punched to allow airflow cooling, and provides enough bounce for freedom of movement. |
| Support | Dual-Zone Cooling & Heating. Independently set each side of the bed to anywhere between 55°F-110°F. Schedule on and off times from the Eight Sleep app. Advanced Sleep Tracking. Individual sleep tracking on each bed side, supporting two sleepers. Metrics include sleep stages, sleep time, toss and turns, and more. | The Secret is in the Springs Our pocket-springs were created after many hours of prototyping to find the perfect gauge wire that gives superior edge support. Once perfected, the coils are encased and placed between layers of foam for the perfect fusion of pocket springs and high performance foam. Pressure-relieving Memory Foam The 1.5" memory foam layer delivers the body contouring and pressure relief you've come to expect from memory foam. Supportive Springs Premium grade steel springs nestled between two layers of 1" stabilizing foam provide a unique core support layer. |
