| Comfort | You can choose from three different operating modes: Manual, Automatic, and Position, which give you total control over the settings. This will give you different comfort levels at each pressure point for maximum support and comfort. | Graphite and gel-beads work to draw away heat all night long, channeling it through breathable, open-cell foam and airy springs. Our hydrophilic foams dissipate moisture, even on hot summer nights. Our proprietary Tuft & Needle Adaptive® foam is breathable and long-lasting, giving you just enough soft without the sink to stay aligned all night. Graphite conducts heat away from you quickly and efficiently as you sleep to prevent you from waking up hot and sweaty. Cooling gel beads wick away heat and help create gradual support as they draw together under your pressure points. |
| Support | The smart sensors of this bed read body pressure and make adjustments in real-time as you sleep. No more fiddling with remote controls. Or you can control each pressure point allowing you to get the perfect customized support while you sleep. | The responsive support of springs meets the long-lasting comfort of our Tuft & Needle Adaptive® foam in our most supportive mattress yet. We took the familiar bounce of traditional design and wrapped it in an ultra-luxurious plush pillow top filled with carbon fiber-infused foam for extended durability. Unlike all-foam mattresses, the Tuft & Needle Hybrid has a more reactive, energetic surface thanks to a tempered spring system. Individually pocketed springs respond to your unique pressure points and provide a subtle, lively bounce - without transferring your partner's every move to your side or waking you up to squeaky springs. Cooling gel beads wick away heat and help create gradual support as they draw together under your pressure points. |
