Loom and Leaf Construction Takeaways
- The cover is quilted with a nice organic cotton and is zoned to provide more support in the middle of the mattress where you need it the most (where most of your weight is)
- The top layer is 2 inches of gel memory foam.
- The next layer is 2.5 inches of 5 lb. density memory foam.
- After a transition layer is a high-density support layer.
- This is a true memory foam mattress. The company uses premium foams and does a very thorough job of making sure the mattress will sleep cool.
Ghostbed Construction Takeaways
- The cover is thin and is made from polyester
- The top layer is 1.5 inches of synthetic latex. There are holes punched in them to allow for extra airflow.
- The next layer is 2 inches of gel memory foam
- The base layer is 7.5 inches of high-density polyfoam
- Taken together the mattress is designed to have the benefits of latex and memory foam without the drawbacks. It has good bounce and you sink into the mattress just a little bit.
