| Firmness Info | |||||
Novosbed mattresses are available in 3 firmness levels, and all are covered by our Perfect Firmness Guarantee, 120 night sleep trial, and 15 year warranty. Soft: Designed for contouring and plushness without that "quicksand" feeling. Medium: Designed to offer the perfect balance of support and plush-comfort and Firm: Designed to provide firm, comfortable support, with minimal sink-in. * Not quite right? Call Novosbed and they'll send you a Comfort+ kit for free. Unzip the mattress top cover and lay the Comfort+ layer on top. Zip the Comfort+ extender to the base and then to the top cover. Your Novosbed is softer or firmer, as needed. The whole process usually takes less than 2 minutes. | Medium feel top of the bed you need - not too firm, not too soft. Rated a 7 to 8 on the firmness scale. Maximum support - to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs. | Medium Plush Firmness The 700 Tiny Mattresses independently respond to each sleepers' personal weight and size. When you initially sit on the mattress, it feels very plush because all of your weight is concentrated on a few tiny mattresses. As you lie down, your weight is evenly distributed across all the tiny mattresses for a firmer and more supportive feel. The ingenuity of the "tiny mattresses" provide the back support of a firm mattress with plush comfort for a very luxurious feel. | The Simba 1500 is a firm feel, the Simba 2500 is a medium-plush feel and the Simba 5000 Pro Flex is a plush feel. Simba used body profile data from 10 million sleepers (making up over 180 million profile points) to create a mattress designed for every sleep style and body type. Backed by a 100-night trial and 100,000+ five-star global reviews. | A medium-firm performance mattress made with allergen-free graphite latex foam. Designed for active Canadians, and incorporating next-generation cooling and responsive technology to aid in overnight recovery. | The 6" base foam layer adds strength, durability and structure to support sleepers of all sizes, without feeling too firm. |
Mattress Construction | |||||
| Materials Overview | |||||
Superior long lasting comfort, motion isolation, and body contouring with high-density memory foam. 5 layers of construction:
NB: The composition and thicknesses vary based on selected firmness. Weight info is based on the medium firmness. | The Helix Plus is designed for Plus Size and Big & Tall and offers maximum support with a medium feel, it has five layers of construction:
| Our "Tiny Mattress" technology is the most significant mattress invention in the last 100 years. There is no other mattress on the market that compares to our one-of-a-kind technology and it's GREENGUARD Gold Certified. We take a 3" piece of high density hybrid foam optimized for our technology, cut out a 2.25" x 2.25" rectangular cylinder, and then encase it in a fabric pocket. We then attach the Cushion Pocket to a .078" high carbon steel pocketed coil spring to create our patented "Cushion Pocket Spring", better known as the "Tiny Mattress". Finally, we combine roughly 700 of these "Tiny Mattresses" to create a mattress that reacts independently to personal weight and size. | The Simba 2500 is Simba's bestselling Hybrid mattress and has five layers:
| Next-Generation Materials, Built for Performance. Four layers of ultra-premium materials, engineered using next-generation manufacturing techniques to create the only performance mattress in Canada:
| 3-Layer Foam Construction
|
| Comfort Info | |||||
InterLock Blue™ Core Cover Knitted with advanced 2-way stretch, InterLock Blue™ adds a second layer of protection for the foam core, and a second layer of moisture guard for added coolness and comfort. | Ultra breathable cover and hybrid design increase airflow to keep the mattress cooler. No more sweaty nights. | The cover's miniature cushion pads provide an added level of comfort and the engineered air channels promote airflow, to maximize the "tiny mattress" technology. | Added springs and layers provide a plusher, more luxurious feel, even better heat regulation and ultimately an even more comfy night's sleep. Meaning there's now a Simba for a wider range of needs and budgets. | Next-generation cooling technology, designed specifically for active Canadian lifestyles. The channeled top layer of graphite latex foam works with the cooling gel layer below, acting as a thermal superhighway. Excess heat is transported quickly away from your body towards open-air channels where heat and body moisture can escape. Sleep better by sleeping long. Recore's™ motion isolating comfort layer increases the number of uninterrupted sleep cycles you experience overnight, giving you as much restorative rest as possible. Not only does it reduce motion ripples across the bed surface, it's also designed to cushion, contour, and relieve pressure around your joints and muscles. | Beautifully designed and engineered with three premium foams for cooling, body contouring and pressure-relieving core support. |
| Support Info | |||||
2 to 3" Premium Memory Foam Perfect comfort and pressure relief, this layer adds 3 luxurious inches of plush support memory foam to the heart of your Novosbed. | The new Helix Plus has higher density foams to match heavier sleepers and provide increased durability. The coil unit has best in-class edge support, so plus size sleepers never feel like they're falling off the mattress. An extra layer of high density, 4 pound foam is included in one of the three foam layers to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs. | 700 "Tiny Mattresses" For Absolute Spine Support Our independent suspension evenly distributes body weight to alleviate stress on the natural curves of the spine. In addition to relieving back pain, this provides absolute comfort for your preferred sleeping position. | More conical pocket miQro™ springs mean greater airflow and better body weight distribution. Plush, lush, gravity-defying comfort. The springs are lighter and finer than traditional chunky bedsprings, so you won't get that poking-in feeling. And they're made to a patented, cone-shaped design which hugs every point of the body and pivots and flexes to distribute your weight fully for pressure relief. | Supporting you and your body at night helps you achieve greater results during the day. Recore's™ three layers of performance foam are calibrated to a firmness fit for side, back, and stomach sleepers. The support system is designed to provide overall structural integrity, while also encouraging proper spinal alignment by preventing excessive sinkage. | The Leesa mattress is designed to cradle and support your body while avoiding the sinking feeling and overheating found in other foam mattresses. |
| Comfort Specs | |||||
2" Premium Airflow Gel Foam A highly breathable gel memory foam for ultra-luxurious comfort with heat dissipation far superior to that of traditional memory foams. | Our special latex-foam hybrid alternative, designed to be denser to contour to your body. Uniquely pressure relieving, we use 4 pound Memory Plus Foam - a special, ultra dense and extra durable Helix blend. | Cooling Air Channels Our individually sealed cushions create air channels with cool and steady airflow management. Contrary to hot and sweaty sheet foam mattresses, you'll sleep undisturbed and awake refreshed the next day. | The Simbatex foam has an open-cell structure and uses advanced graphite cooling technology to draw heat away from your body, keeping you cool and comfortable. Patented miQro springs allow air to move freely through the mattress - unlike pure memory foam which traps heat in. The conical design of the springs means they are cone-shaped and allow for greater airflow between the springs. | Graphite-Infused Latex Foam Heat-regulating graphite latex helps you keep a cooler core temperature necessary for deep sleep by channeling thermal energy away from your body. Breathable Gel Foam Millions of shock-absorbing air cushions dissipate body heat away from the bed and circulate fresh air around the central layer of the Recore™ mattress. New air channels are created with every little movement throughout the night thanks to next-generation Vortex™ gel foam found only in this performance mattress. | LSA200 Foam The 2" foam top layer provides airflow for a cooler night's sleep and enough bounce for freedom of movement. |
| Support Specs | |||||
Like billions of tiny independent cushion pocket-coil springs, this premium support foam layer supports sleepers while eliminating motion transfer during the night. | Firm Memory Foam provides ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a higher IFD to match your body type. Extra support. Hundreds of individual taller coils designed to cradle and support heavier weight. Reinforced perimeter to provide edge support. The bottom foam layer of the mattress provides base support and durability to the entire mattress. | Individual Vertebrae Support The individual suspension system supports each bone (33) in the human spinal column separately. It cradles the body's curves while providing enough firmness for the back's muscular and bony structures. Plus it's Chiropractor Endorsed! | Up to 2,500 miQro® springs mean greater airflow and better body weight distribution. These 25mm conical pocket springs are made with 100% British steel, manufactured in Leeds, and are enclosed in a 100% polyester pocket. Simbatex memory foam moulds expertly to your body shape. It's like a mattress tailor made for you. High definition foam with edge support means you won't get that feeling of rolling or falling off the bed when sleeping or sitting on the border. A zoned support base provides different levels of support to different areas of your body to reduce pressure points. | The durable support foam gives the mattress its structural integrity while providing surface-wide support and precise pressure-point relief. Latex foam is best for both durable comfort and rapid-response contouring. It has a similar cushioning feel to memory foam and the spring-like resilience of innerspring. Recore™ is carefully calibrated to provide full musculoskeletal relief for better body recovery. | Pressure Relieving Memory Foam The 2" memory foam layer delivers the body contouring and pressure relief you've come to expect from memory foam. |
| Fabric Specs | |||||
Ultra-soft, Moisture-wicking, Washable Cover Made from eco-friendly Tencel® fabric, the luxurious Novosbed top cover draws moisture away from your body for a cool, dry night. It is also removable and machine-washable. | Each Plus mattress comes with our Ultra Breathable Tencel technology designed to increase airflow and to keep you cool. | Our stretch knit polyester and elastane cover is designed to complement the "tiny mattresses" ability to adjust to personal weight and size. More specifically, we've integrated a quilted, internal (FR) mattress pad that offers a more plush level of comfort. This zip-off removable and washable cover allows access to independently sealed cushions and unmatched cleanliness (vacuum in-between each air channel so you can eliminate dust, bacteria, and allergens). | Super soft and breathable sleep surface. A 500gsm hypoallergenic knitted cover. The mattress has four convenient handles (on Queen and King sizes) to allow you to rotate or move your mattress with ease. Whilst the cover itself is not removable or washable, the grey base fabric can be cleaned with a soft, damp and clean cloth using small circular motions. Using a mattress protector could help extend the life of your mattress. | The cover is a blend of polyester, spandex, poly-viscose, and SilverCharged™ thread. Naturally antimicrobial for a cleaner, better sleep surface. Silver-infused thread is woven throughout the machine-washable top cover with additional stretch and softness. | The Leesa Mattress is wrapped in our iconic four-stripe cover that features fire retardant properties. |
