A circular knit cover made with 64% Polyester, 20% Nylon, 13% Polyethylene and 3% Spandex. Polyethylene, which is known to help draw heat away from the body, thus providing a slight "cooling sensation" to the touch. Constructed using alternating nylon and polyethylene yarns. These materials are known to provide give, thus promoting and enhancing the benefits of the memory foam layers beneath it.

Ergonomic handles	No	No
Comfort	Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.	With a cooling cover and a gel-coated memory foam top layer the Nectar Lush helps regulate temperature to stay cool and in a deep sleep. The top memory foam layer helps provide temperature regulation while you sleep. The PCM gel that has been infused into the surface of this component is known to: help draw excess heat away from the body and retain it in the component itself to help cool the sleeping environment to the optimal temperature Release any retained heat from the component back to the body to help heat the sleeping environment to the optimal temperature.
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 Nectar Lush features an innovative memory foam with a higher density than what is found in traditional foam products. The increased density helps provide superior pressure relief for a plush, floaty rest.The top memory foam layer helps provide cushioning for the body at its most sensitive areas, like the pressure points. This is often described as the much-loved, traditional "memory foam" feel: softness, cushion, pressure relief, comfort, etc. The second memory foam layer, or the transition layer, is intended to help provide resistance against the body as you lay down on top of the mattress. If you were to jump onto your mattress, this layer prevents you from feeling the base support layer of foam. The base support layer is intended to provide solid support for the layers above it. It helps give structure and stability for all of the other components to perform as desired.
