We sent Bears Original Mattress home with a combination sleeper, and it proved comfortable in every position.

This mattress greatly improved our sleep, leaving us better-rested and discomfort-free for months.

We particularly liked how the grid delivered what felt like targeted support at our hips and along our spine.

We especially loved the counter pressure provided by this firm mattress.

While we tested the Luxury Firm option, it does come in an even more supportive Firm model.

The support of this firm hybrid mattress was a standout for us.

Though it feels plush to the touch, we never felt like we were sinking into its surface.

Rather, we noticed it met our support needs in every sleep position.

The best firm mattresses feel flat and offer even support from head to toe.

And you shouldnt feel any sloping or sinking in if you move closer to the edge of the mattress.

In general, high-density materials will help create this feeling.
