Firmness Info
One perfect bed, no more morning blues. Purple gives the best of both firm and soft with our pressure-erasing Purple Grid™.
The best way to feel the Casper Nova 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.
Award-winning comfort, signature "just right" feel.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
The Purple Plus has our signature gel Grid paired with our most premium comfort foam to give you just the right mix of support and cushioning:
  • 2" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Puple Grid™. Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • Premium Comfort Foam layers.
Those who want a plush top layer without sacrificing support and cooling. Made with three layers of premium foam, plus foam-encased springs:
  • Breathable AirScape™ Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Polyurethane Foam
  • Contoured Memory Foam
  • Durable Base of Polyurethane Foam with Encased Springs.
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
Optimal Temperature
With over 1,400 air channels build into the temperature-neutral Grid and premium breathable foams used in the base, you will stay comfortable all night.
Cooling helps keep you at the right temperature for your best. Two layers of perforated breathable foam help reduce heat. Plus every mattress saves up to 70 recycled bottles from the environment.
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
A revolutionary mattress designed for just about everyone. It's designed to not only help you get better sleep, but to soothe joints, release pressure on the hips and shoulders, and support the neck and back. The hyper-elastic gel Grid immediately flexes to support your position and springs back into place as you readjust or move. It's designed to make bedtime the highlight of your day!
Superior plushness without sacrificing support. More support where you need it most with the plushness you crave. Zoned Support™ Pro offers 7 zones of targeted support for healthy spinal alignment, softer foam around the shoulders provides more relief to the upper body and multiple ergonomic points under shoulders, hips, waist and lower back.
A firmer border provides edge support to help you get in and out bed easily.
The durable base is engineered to prevent sinking and sagging while supporting your whole body.
Comfort Specs
Purple's column design allows air to flow freely, preventing moisture trapping, extending the life of the mattress, and providing cleaner, more comfortable sleep. Thanks to the free air flow design and patented polymer materials, Purple naturally sleeps much cooler than memory foam, latex, and other mattress technology.
A top layer of proprietary perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat, the tiny holes move hot air and body heat away. With a thin coating of cooling gel that adds a refreshing feel. This innovative cooling system is designed to help keep you cool all night.
Second layer of AirScape™ helps prevent overheating. These air channels allow heat to escape.
Resilient springs increase airflow.

Support Specs
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.
Premium Comfort Foam: Enjoy the plush feeling of premium comfort foam. A perfect sidekick to the Purple Grid™, it enhances the Grid's response by hugging your unique shape and bouncing back when you move. It also isolates motion for uninterrupted sleep.
Premium AirScape™ foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure. This has a plush, velvety soft feel.
A second layer of supportive foam has 3 ergonomic zones to help align your spine and provide more relief.
A third layer with Zoned Support™ Pro relieves pressure under the shoulders, and provides more support under the waist, lower back, and hips to align your spine. These zones reinforce support from the layers above.
Fabric-wrapped springs provide active support and a little lift.
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.
Fabric Specs
Cooling Cover

A super plush and stretchy top. This velvelvety-soft layer makes bedtime feel extra cozy. Knit fabrics stretch in 4 ways so you feel the full benefits of the layers below. The added pillow-like fabrics cradle your body and make you feel as if you were sinking into a cloud.
