Firmness info	We make one model of mattress that is designed to be universally comfortable and moderately firm, in order to benefit all different types of sleepers regardless of factors such as age, height, weight, or the way you sleep. We like to describe it as firm enough to be supportive, yet soft enough to be comfortable! We've designed our foam to work with those who like soft mattresses as well as those who like firm, so we encourage everyone to give us a try regardless of your usual preference. If you're not 100% satisfied, you can return it for a full refund.	The Zoma Sports Mattress is most comfortable for back and side sleepers, as stomach sleepers may find it too soft. Zoma's Triangulex technology makes back and side sleeping more comfortable, too, as it offers extra support for your torso and adequate cushioning for your shoulders to prevent tossing and turning and keep you sleeping soundly all night long.

Comfort	Our foam works in three ways to draw heat from your body and disperse it out of the mattress. Heat Wicking Heat is drawn into the mattress where gel and graphite work together to disperse heat outward and away from your body. Breathable With the help of our fabric, air flows through the foam cells to boost the speed of heat transfer through the mattress. No More Quicksand Our support layer helps hold you closer to the surface to avoid the oven effect caused by sinking in too deeply. Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam We've engineered a new foam based purely on customer feedback, unparalleled in comfort and support. It's not memory foam or latex. It's Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam.	Zoma mattress materials are made with Variable Pressure Foaming, a process that produces naturally open-cell foams. This helps reduce the buildup of uncomfortable heat and moisture. The Reactiv layer of is designed with enough bounce and responsiveness to keep you lifted in the mattress instead of sinking uncomfortably far into the bed. Plus, this layer isolates motion, so you can toss and turn as much as you want without disturbing a sleeping partner.
Support	Designed to be one type of comfort, we are continuously tweaking the mattress to be universally comfortable for everyone. Our foam supports the natural posture of your spine, relieves back, shoulder, and neck pain and naturally breathes so you don't sleep hot. Supportive Base Layer Our custom Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam is paired with a high-quality support layer that forms the perfect foundation for our mattress. Our foam is ideal for sleepers of any size or weight - and this is what makes it unique. The more pressure you put on it, the more it reacts to support you.	The Zoma is a memory foam mattress designed to help athletes sleep deeper and recover faster, but even if you aren't an athlete, you can benefit from Zomas sleep-promoting technologies. Equipped with contouring memory foam for cushioning comfort and responsive support foam to prevent sinkage, the Zoma has everything you need to help you get the sleep you need to perform your best day-to-day. The Zoma Triangulex layer includes 3 zones (Head & Shoulders, Hips & Lower Back and Upper & Lower Legs zones) that help to reduce acute pressure on the mid-body and lead to overall better spinal alignment during side-sleeping. The Triangulex is made up of hundreds of triangular segments spaced according to the strategic comfort zones. Reactiv responsively contours to the body to minimize motion transfer and provide continuous support. The result? An undisturbed rest and active recovery. Support+ is the high-density base for the Zoma mattress. It provides consistent, reliable pressure relief for the hips and shoulders, while maintaining the spine's natural alignment.
