Firmness Info
The best way to feel the Casper Wave Hybrid is to take advantage of our 100-night, risk-free trial. If you're looking for a mattress that can sustain more weight, or you want to be lifted more than cradled, then our hybrids are a great choice.
The 3-inch Purple Grid™ layer is optimal for sleep position changers. Perfect balance of soft and firm for couples with mixed mattress-feel preferences who share the same bed.
Petite customers (115-pounds or less) tend to prefer The Purple Premier, as their pressure points are better cradled due to a thicker Purple Grid. Similarly, customers who weigh 250-pounds or more have expressed a common interest in The Purple Premier, as it offers a bit more support.
Award-winning comfort, signature "just right" feel.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
Our most advanced mattress where ergonomic foam and gel team up with springs:
  • Breathable AirScape™ Polyurethane Foam with Cooling Gel
  • Natural Latex
  • Zoned Memory Foam
  • Polyurethane Foam with Gel Pods
  • Durable Base of Polyurethane Foam with Encased Springs.
The Purple Premier 3 is made with ultra-high-quality materials engineered for the perfect synergy of durability, luxury, and No Pressure Support:
  • 3" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Puple Grid™. Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • 1" High-density cushioning foam help the transition between layers for optimal comfort
  • 7.5" Responsive Support Coils. The gauge of the coils are 13.75 and use 95% recycled steel.
The Casper Original is good for sleepers of all kinds who want both support and cooling. Three layers of construction:
  • Breathable AirScape™ Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Memory Foam
  • Durable Polyurethane Support Foam.
Comfort Info
The most advanced cooling system helps you stay at the perfect temperature all night. Airscape™ 3 with cooling gel offers 3 layers of perforated breathable foam help keep you cool, air channels allow heat to escape to prevent overheating and added cooling gel feels refreshing throughout the night. Plus every mattress saves up to 121 recycled bottles from the environment.
The Purple Grid™ has thousands of open air channels that feel cool as you lie doown and neutralize your body heat throughout the night so you sleep comfortably all night long.
Casper mattresses are specifically designed to sleep cool. We put a lot of R&D into how Casper mattresses perform throughout the night - like running thermal imaging tests and sweat tests. Our mattresses use a breathable comfort foam to offset the memory foam layered beneath it. This construction helps keep things nice and breezy and outrageously comfortable. Plus every mattress saves up to 57 recycled bottles from the environment.
Support Info
The most advanced support system designed for less aches and pains. Zoned Support™ Max offers continuous ergonomic zones for full-body relief, softer foam around the shoulders provides more relief to the upper body and healthy spinal alignment for all sleeping positions.
The Wave Hybrid has enhanced edge support due to the firm foam perimeter encasing the springs, this means getting in and out of bed will be a breeze.
The hyper-elastic polymer gel Grid immediately flexes to support your position and springs back into place as you readjust or move.
The Purple Grid™ is designed to dynamically flex under pressure so it cradles pressure points like your hips and shoulders while still supporting the rest of your body.
A border using high density foam creates reinforced edge support.
The durable base is engineered to prevent sinking and sagging while supporting your whole body.
Comfort Specs
A top layer of proprietary perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat, the tiny holes move hot air and body heat away. This innovative cooling system is designed to help keep you cool all night.
Second layer of AirScape™ helps you stay at the perfect temperature all night. Tiny holes let hot air and body heat out so you don't get overheated
Third layer of AirScape™ helps prevent overheating.
Resilient springs increase airflow.
Air circulates more easily through the interior coils, which perfectly complement the Grid's built-in air channels and temperature-neutral gel material.

Support Specs
Premium AirScape™ foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure.
Memory foam with 3 areas of Zoned Support™ help align your spine and relieve pressure. Softer under shoulders and firmer around the hips, waist and lower back.
Gel pods under the waist and lower back add support and help keep your spine perfectly aligned in any position. Zoned Support™ Max reinforces the layer of memory foam above with continuous support zones to provide full-body relief and ease aches and pains.
Fabric-wrapped springs provide active support and a little lift.
Responsive Support Coils
Individually wrapped stainless steel coils pair with the Grid™ to offer dynamic pressure relief and support. Each coil is wrapped in responsibly sourced premium noise-reducing fabric.
The Purple Grid™ is a flexible gel material that instantly adapts to your body and sleep position, providing soft support where you want it and firm support where you need it. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.
