- 2″ Quilt – The cover is quilted with 2″ of durable contouring foam for additional softness and comfort. It provides extraordinary pressure relief and creates a cloud-like feel. It also comes with hand-stitched Button Tufting, which increases durability and ensures the layers are held in place perfectly.

- 1″ Micro Coil Unit – This layer is 1″ of individually wrapped independent coils with multiple support zones, which provide improved back support while allowing greater airflow through the mattress for cooler sleep.
- 1″ Copper-infused Memory Foam Layer – This layer is made of 1″ of the proprietary copper-infused memory foam. It provides incredible pressure relief and features super-conductive copper beads which draw heat away from your body for a cooler and fresher sleep.
- 1″ Firm HD Poly Foam Layer – This layer is 1″ of the special polyfoam designed to provide extra deep support and promote proper body alignment. It also serves as a transition layer between the layers on top and firm pocketed coil system below.
- 8″ Zoned Coil Unit – This layer is 8″ of Zoned pocketed coils. There are 3 individually wrapped coil zones designed to provide extra support right to those areas of your body where you need it the most. With coils layered from edge-to-edge across the width of the mattress, this durable coil unit also provides excellent edge support.
- 1″ Base Support Foam Layer – This layer is made of 1″ of high density foam that serves as the foundation for other layers above and provides greater stability and durability to the mattress. It also allows you to place the mattress on any solid surface, including a slatted bed, box spring or even an adjustable base.
Napa mattress layers
The Napa mattress has a unique cooling cover that is extremely smooth, cool and fresh to the touch and that ensures a cooler and more comfortable night’s sleep from the first night.
Firmness and Support
The Napa mattress comes in three firmness options: Soft, Medium and Firm. The one that we got is a Medium firm version and we felt it to be around a 7 on the firmness scale (10 being the firmest).
In terms of support, the Napa mattress does an excellent job of providing amazing support in all sleeping positions and for all types of sleepers, including heavier sleepers.
Various layers of special foams on top work perfectly with the layer of micro coils and pocketed coil unit, that also feature a special zoned technology, to provide just the right amount of support to those areas of your body where you need it the most.

Comfort
The Napa mattress is one of the most comfortable mattresses we have tried out so far. It features 8 layers of various proprietary designed foams, zoned micro coils and pocketed coil unit, all of which make this mattress one of the most luxurious hybrid mattresses currently available on the online mattress market.
All layers of the Napa mattress work together to provide an ideal balance of pressure relieving comfort and support and there is also enough responsiveness and push back and bounce with this mattress which facilitates moving around and getting in and out of bed during the night and make this mattress ideal for sex as well.

Sleeping Hot
The Napa mattress sleeps pretty cool due to the use of various cooling technologies used in its construction.
A breathable quilted top, the layers of Titan Hyperflex foam and copper-infused foam, individually wrapped micro coils, pocketed coil system, and soft and breathable cover of this mattress all work together to dissipate excessive body heat, prevent its retention, allow greater airflow thorough the mattress and keep things cool and comfortable all night long.
Sinkage and Motion Transfer
As for sinkage and motion transfer, the Napa mattress does an excellent job of minimizing the amount of sinkage and motion transfer due to its unique 16″ thick design and highest quality materials used in its construction.
Its incredibly thick design and the use of various layers of special proprietary foams, zoned micro coils and pocketed coil system prevented us from sinking too much into the mattress and feeling enveloped by it.
The edge support is also excellent with this mattress due to the special coil unit which features coils layered from edge-to-edge across the width of the mattress.

As for motion transfer, there is not too much of it as various layers of special proprietary foams and a layer of individually wrapped micro coils did a good job of isolating motion transfer.
Smell / Off-Gassing
As for smell / off-gassing, the Napa mattress gets excellent marks in this category for not having too much of a noticeable smell upon opening the box. Its hybrid construction also minimized the amount of off gassing smell to the least bit and any smell that was present dissipated quickly, within a few hours.

IDLE Sleep Hybrid
Construction and Materials
The IDLE hybrid mattress is a 14″ hybrid pocketed coil and foam mattress made up of various layers of foam and pocketed coils, with the top comfort layers which are basically duplicated when flipped over.
- A Natural Fire Resistant Barrier – Beneath the cover there is a natural fire resistant barrier that is free of carcinogenic chemicals, gases, toxins, HCN, HCI, and bromine.
- 1″ Top Comfort Layer – This layer is 1″ of contouring IDLE foam that is quilted into the cover and designed to provide softness and comfort to the top layer of the mattress.
- 2″ Cooling & Pressure Relief layer – This layer is 2″ of IDLE Cooling Buoyancy foam, a custom blend of foam that reacts faster than memory foam, provides better support, promises 4x better pressure relief than traditional memory foam and also helps provide more cooling to the mattress.
- 1″ Supportive Transition Layer – This layer is 1″ of the special foam that provides support and serves as the transition layer between the top comfort layers of memory foam and pocketed coil system below.
- 6″ Support Layer – This layer is 6″ of Quantum edge-to-edge high quality steel pocketed innerspring coils sandwiched between the layers of foam that acts as the core support to the mattress and provides deep compression support with great edge support.
- 1″ Supportive Transition Layer – same as top layers
- 2″ Cooling and Pressure Relief layer – same as the top layers
- 1″ Top Comfort Layer – same as top layers
- A Natural Fire Resistant Barrier
IDLE Sleep Hybrid mattress layers
The cover of the IDLE Sleep hybrid mattress is infused with Thermocool – a material that aids in heat dissipation and acts as phase-change temperature regulating material that cools you when you’re warm, and warms you when you are cool.
It also features beautiful and durable carry handles and has a nice pattern on it that feels good and adds to the overall comfort and luxuriousness of this mattress.
Firmness and Support
Unlike the Napa which comes in 3 firmness options, the IDLE Hybrid mattress comes in 2 firmness options, Medium and Luxury Firm. We tested the medium firm model, and rate it around a 6.5 out of 10 (10 being firmest). The company says it is more of a 5.5 / 6, but in our experience, and like many hybrid models, it feels firmer.
In terms of support, the IDLE mattress does a really good job of providing excellent support in all sleeping positions, with the top memory foam comfort layers providing body hug and contour with the underlying spring support layer providing the deep compression support for the body.

Comfort
The IDLE Sleep Hybrid mattress is a rather comfortable mattress designed to provide the “best of both worlds”, the feel of the bounce and support of innerspring coils and the body hug and contour of memory foam. But, we can say that Napa is more comfortable and more luxurious.
The nice 14″ thickness of this mattress with its high quality pocketed coil support layer does a really good job of providing excellent support in all sleeping positions, with the top memory foam comfort layers providing body hug and contour and the underlying spring support layer providing the deep compression support for the body.

Sleeping Hot
Various cooling technologies used in the construction of this mattress make it sleep incredibly cool.
The Thermocool infused top layer as well as the IDLE Cooling Buoyancy foam, combined with the innerspring coil layer which by design provides good airflow and discourages heat retention, all contribute to helping this bed sleep much cooler than many models we have tested.
Sinkage and Motion Transfer
This mattress does an good job with sinkage, especially compared to most mattresses we have reviewed. Its thick 14″ design and high quality coil construction along with layers of foam that helps minimize sinkage to the least bit.
Idle Sleep hybrid profile
Edge support is also very good with this mattress due to the edge-to-edge Quantum Coil design of the mattress.
As for the motion transfer, it is a little bit higher than in most memory foam mattresses we have reviewed, but it is to be expected with the hybrid construction of this mattress which naturally provides more bounce than the full foam or latex mattresses due to the innerspring coils in its construction.
Smell / Off-Gassing
The IDLE Sleep Hybrid gets high marks in this category for not having a noticeable smell upon opening the box. Its hybrid construction minimizes the degree of off-gassing typical for memory foam mattresses.
