Bear Original Hybrid Mattress

The Bear Original Hybrid is an 11-inch hybrid mattress built around Celliant infrared technology, an FDA-determined medical device material woven into the quilted cover that converts body heat into infrared energy to promote local circulation and recovery during sleep. This makes it a standout option for active sleepers and athletes who want a mattress that actively supports overnight recovery rather than simply providing cushioning. Gel swirl memory foam in the comfort layer adds surface-level heat dissipation and pressure relief. The support core features 6-inch Ascension coils, individually wrapped pocketed springs that allow each coil to respond independently to pressure, limiting motion transfer and maintaining consistent support across all sleep zones. A dynamic transition foam layer between the gel memory foam and the coils ensures smooth weight distribution without abrupt firmness changes. DuraDense base foam anchors the system below the coils for long-term structural integrity. The mattress comes in a single medium-firm (6 out of 10) feel, which suits back, side, stomach, and combination sleepers seeking a balanced surface. Bear has earned GREENGUARD Gold and CertiPUR-US certifications across the Original Hybrid, with the mattress named NCOA Best Affordable Cooling Mattress of 2026. At $1,184 list price for a queen, it delivers premium certifications, a Celliant cover, and a 365-night trial with limited lifetime warranty at a price point significantly below mid-range competitors. An optional CoolForce layer upgrade is available for sleepers who want additional active cooling beyond the Celliant infrared system.
