Construction & materials

	Helix Midnight	Plank by Brooklyn Bedding
Layers	Helix Two Touch Design, Memory Plus Foam, High-Grade Polyfoam, Wrapped Coils, DuraDense Foam.	0.75" Quilted Top, 2" TitanFlex Foam, 7" High-Density Base Foam, 1.5" Quilted Bottom.
Cover	Helix Two Touch Design. Each mattress comes with a top cover layer with stretch and a soft touch as well as a lower cover layer for airflow and breathability. Top cover - 100% soft polyester. Lower cover - Jersey knit fabric with woven fire barrier. Upgrade to ultra cool knit cover for cooler nights (available at checkout). This Ultra-Cool Cover is designed using phase change material to keep your body cool when you sleep. Simply zip on the Ultra-Cool Cover in place of your standard cover for quick and easy use.	The flippable design of the Plank allows you to choose your ideal firmness level: a .75" quilted top layer, patterned with continuous stitching, ensures zero loft for an ultra-firm sleep experience - or, flip the mattress, and a 1.5" quilted layer, patterned with tack-and-jump stitching, creates minimal loft for a firm sleep experience.
Machine-washable cover	No	No
Ergonomic handles	No	No
Comfort	Uniquely pressure relieving, we use Memory Plus Foam - a special Helix blend.	Engineered to reduce pressure on your circulatory system the Plank provides for better blood flow - and better lower back support, compelling you to inhale more oxygen while you snooze.
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 Plank offers a firmer, flatter, flippable surface for a neutral spine position that's better for your back and posture overall. A 2" layer of our firmest transitional TitanFlex foam adds deep compression support. A 7" high density base foam ensures durability and stability for the life of your bed.
