Firmness

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

Repositioning means that sleepers can change position quickly. many people toss and frequently turn while sleeping.

The Bear Original is unlike other available foam models. The foam in Bear Original doesn’t conform and cradle the body much. Besides, it eliminates the feeling of floating on top of the Mattress like other beds. For these characteristics, Original makes it a bit easier to move around on the bed than on other memory foam mattresses. However, heavy people tend to sink deeper into the mattress, making it challenging to move around.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Generally, foam mattresses, particularly memory foam mattresses, tend to cradle the sleeper’s body, redistributing body weight. It can help relieve aches and soreness in the areas that exert the most force on the Mattress.

The Bear Original uses multiple layers of cooling, contouring, and comforting memory foam to increase the pressure-relieving properties that help you sleep better and recover faster. The brand goes beyond traditional foams and uses Graphite-gel infused foam in the comfort layer and responsive transition foam to keep sleepers’ bodies cool and spine aligned. Moreover, it uses brands Celliant® technology weave brands to promote cooling and recovery in the cover. Celliant is a unique fiber that utilizes organic minerals to redirect your body’s heat back as infrared light. This energy boosts blood circulation in the body for muscle recovery.

• Back Sleepers: People who sleep on their back tend to require more support — particularly around the hips, which may sink into softer mattresses and prevent proper spinal alignment. Sleepers sleeping on Bear Original mattress will get enough firmness or back support. It is mainly for the average weight & Heavy group. However, individuals on the lighter side may see some challenges with this firmer bed.
• Side sleepers: Side sleepers will greatly appreciate Bear Original. With the comfort and support layers, the Mattress will absorb the pressure and provide a comfortable night’s sleep.
  Lightweight and average-weight side sleepers will enjoy the feel softness of the bed.
• Stomach sleepers: Achieving good spinal alignment for stomach sleepers can often be trickier as the hips can tend to sink too far with some mattresses. Stability and support are crucial for “stomach sleepers” to not cause back or hip pain. Bear Original is suitable for lightweight stomach sleepers with a medium-firm configuration but may create challenges for heavy sleepers who may experience sinking in and make a spinal curvature.
• Combination Sleepers:  Bear pro is quite comfortable for the most lightweight and average-weight combination sleepers.

Cooling & Temperature Control

The Bear Original is intended to sleep more relaxedly than other foam mattresses. The open-cell structure of brands foams allows for better airflow and prevents overheating while one sleeps. Bear Original’s graphite gel memory foam disperses heat, helping you sleep cooler.

The Bear Original offers good thermal neutrality without overheating, unlike other foam mattresses. Fact is, Bear Originals though memory foam, do not provide as much conforming or the feeling of sinking into the Mattress as market available models.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

This category rates how well a mattress can prevent other sleepers in a bed from feeling when their sleep partner rolls over, shifts, or changes positions.

Memory foam mattresses provide a high degree of motion isolation by absorbing motion and spreading. Since Bear’s memory foam is firmer than its competitors, the responsiveness is higher, and motion isolation is lower. It means that light sleepers may notice their partner’s movements.

Edge Support

There is no separate Foam perimeter to the Bear mattresses, and the only support foam is a different layer of High-Density Foam. It means that the edge does not have a separate support system, making it easier to move in or out of bed. The problem magnifies significantly for sleepers with higher body weight, who will feel deeper sinkage.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Young or old, nobody is immune to back pain, whether chronic or temporary. It is essential to pay attention to where you put your head (and back, of course).

Let’s get a detailed idea about the Sleeping style

• Side Sleepers:  The USP of Bear mattresses is its support to people with active lifestyles. It means that the foam is comparatively more firm. So, side sleepers with light body weight may experience some pressure on their hips and shoulders. But this level of support should be good for people with heavier body weight.
• Back Sleepers: Bear mattress feels natural for people with over 150 pounds since it conforms appropriately to their body weight. The conforming is limited but comfortable for back sleepers with less weight than this. There is a good balance between conforming and supporting people with body weights between 150 and 250 pounds.
• Stomach Sleepers: For stomach sleepers of weight lower than 150 pounds, the support and stability of Bear are good. But for people with body weight above 250 pounds, the support to mid-section is often not enough. This might cause the Mattress to sag in between, and spinal alignment may be disturbed.
• Heavy Sleepers: Bear performs the best for people with higher body weight if you are a side or back sleeper. The Bear mattress might lead to some discomfort in the shoulders and hips in the morning for stomach sleepers.

Mattress Review and Rating

Repositioning

Repositioning means sleepers can change position quickly. many people toss and frequently turn while sleeping.

Moving on the Bear Hybrid mattress with a medium-firm feel is relatively easy compared to most hybrid models. Most sleepers don’t sink deep in the Mattress, so the sensation of being “Trapped in“the bed is not there. Knitted with Celliant’s Infrared Yarn Technology, the quilted, hand-tufted cover of the Bear Hybrid harnesses your body’s internal energy to promote recovery and overall well-being. Sleepers can switch positions easily as there is a bounce from the spring layer. Bear hybrids are pretty responsive.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Generally, foam mattresses, particularly memory foam mattresses, tend to cradle the sleeper’s body, redistributing body weight. It can help relieve aches and soreness in the Mattress areas that exert the most force.

Bear Hybrid’s Serene® Foam allows for up to 4x more pressure relief by better conforming to the body contour. What is more, there are two comfort layers, the second being a gel-infused polyfoam. It allows for better spreading of body weight and reduces pressure buildup. Thus, Bear hybrid offers a better balance of support and pressure relief while avoiding the “hug,” which some sleepers like to avoid. Unlike other Bear all-foam mattresses, the support layer of Hybrid is spring-based, which allows for more airflow. It keeps the temperature lower. Also, Bear’s exclusive Celliant technology and gel-infused polyfoam support this by soaking excess body heat.

• Back Sleepers: People sleeping on their back tend to require more support — particularly around the hips, which may sink into softer mattresses and prevent proper spinal alignment. Sleepers sleeping on Bear Hybrid mattress will get enough firmness or back support. It is mainly for the average weight & Heavy group. However, individuals on the lighter side may see some challenges with this med firm bed.
• Side sleepers:Side sleepers will greatly appreciate Bear hybrid. With the comfort and support layers, the Mattress will absorb the pressure and provide a comfortable night’s sleep.
  Lightweight and average-weight side sleepers will enjoy the feel softness of the bed.
• Stomach sleepers: Attaining good spinal alignment for stomach sleepers can often be trickier as the hips can tend to sink too far with some mattresses. Stability and support are crucial for “stomach sleepers” not to cause back or hip pain. Bear Hybrid is suitable for lightweight stomach sleepers with a medium-firm configuration but may create challenges for heavy sleepers who may experience sinking in and make a spinal curvature.
• Combination Sleepers:  Bear Hybrid is quite comfortable for majority lightweight and average weight combination sleepers.

Cooling & Temperature Control

Bear Hybrid ensures sleepers Sleep Cool and Breezy. Mattress with heat-conductive copper-infused comfort foam, layered with innerspring coils and Sleep Recovery Technology™ for a cool-to-the-touch sensation.

Folks who tend to run warm can stay cool throughout the night.

Excellent cooling with Bear Hybrid. The secret lies in natural Copper Foam combined with Feran Ice fabric creating a heat-dissipating, temperature-regulating system that promotes better airflow distribution.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

This category rates how well a mattress can prevent other sleepers in a bed from feeling when their sleep partner rolls over, shifts, or changes positions.

The trade-off for better temperature regulation and border support in Hybrid models is its lower motion isolation. The spring base gives a certain bounciness, leading to motion transfer. However, these are Marshall or pocketed coils and have a specific separation from other rings. So, the movement of your partner might be noticeable but will not hinder your sleep significantly.

Edge Support

Bear Hybrid provides better edge support than other Bear mattresses due to its coil base. However, this is still a bit low than other Hybrid models in the market, which was felt during some controlled experiments. It does not reduce the usable surface area of the Mattress considerably; even if there is, then it can be some loss over a 10-15 year horizon.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Young or old, nobody is immune to back pain, whether chronic or temporary. It is essential to pay attention to where you put your head (and back).

Let’s get a detailed idea about the Sleeping style

• Side Sleepers:  Bear Hybrid has enough balance between conforming and support for lower-weight side sleepers. For people with slightly heavier weight, the bouncy responsiveness of the Mattress may lead to a buildup of pressure around their shoulders and hips.
• Back Sleepers: The firmness of the Hybrid Mattress ensures that it can support back sleepers from all weight groups. The three layers of foam ensure that the pelvic area doesn’t sag in too deep while maintaining healthy alignment.
• Stomach Sleepers: Stomach sleepers need firmer mattresses to prevent straining their spine and their midsection from sinking in too much. This pressure is higher for people with more weight, especially over 250 lb.
• Heavy Sleepers: Bear Hybrid scores well over other Bear mattresses and competitor mattresses concerning heavy sleepers. It is comfortable for side and back sleepers, but the support is not enough for stomach sleepers.
