Comfort	Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.	The Nolah Mattress also sleeps cooler because Nolah is 100% temperature neutral and made entirely without the use of heat-trapping viscoelastic chemicals. Cooling Nolah AirFoam The top 2" of this cooling foam mattress is not temperature sensitive, unlike Memory Foam, so it sleeps cooler and contours better to your body.
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 Nolah Mattress is scientifically proven to provide 4X times less peak pressure on the hips, shoulders and back area compared to high-end memory foams. With a supportive bounce and zero motion transfer, you're are guaranteed to enjoy a deep, restorative sleep every night. Supportive Avena® Foam 1" support layer that's stronger and more durable than Latex. It also provides a healthy and responsive bounce to keep you sound asleep all night.
