Comfort	Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.	Beautifully designed and engineered with three premium foams for cooling, body contouring and pressure-relieving core support. The 2" LSA200 foam top layer provides airflow for a cooler night's sleep and enough bounce for freedom of movement.
Support	Specially designed using a Memory Plus Foam pressure relief layer to cushion your pressure points as a side sleeper. Density of the top and middle layers optimized to give you the right amount of support based on your body type. High-Grade Polyfoam. Providing ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a medium IFD to match your body type. Wrapped Coils. Hundreds of individual coils help to cradle your body while also limiting motion transfer. Edge Support. Each mattress has an individually wrapped spring unit with a reinforced perimeter. This means your mattress will reduce that roll-off feeling and will keep its shape more while sitting on the edge of the bed. Our technology is proven to be substantially better than all foam options.	The Leesa mattress is designed to cradle and support your body while avoiding the sinking feeling and overheating found in other foam mattresses. Pressure Relieving Memory Foam The 2" memory foam layer delivers the body contouring and pressure relief you've come to expect from memory foam.
