Overview
A gel foam layer over memory foam and high density foam gives this twin mattress a cooler, pressure-relieving build. The cover is plush and the top is tight.
Gel foam is the reason for the cooler claim, and the extra thickness gives more cushion than slimmer twins. The limit is the lower weight rating and spot-only cleaning.
Who it's for
Teens, kids and guests who sleep warm will use the gel layer and medium feel. Heavier adults, or those who prefer a springy mattress, should look at a different construction.
Pros and cons
- Gel foam for cooler sleep
- Memory foam pressure relief
- Eight inch thickness
- Certified safe materials
- Lower twin weight limit
- Spot clean only
- No coil support
Performance notes
The gel foam layer is designed to carry heat away from the top, and breathability in the cover helps. Memory foam spreads pressure while the high density base supports the weight. A medium feel falls between soft and firm.
