The Casper Mattress is made of the combination of latex foam and memory foam the cover of the Casper Mattress is removable and easy to wash. 99% of the cover is polyester, while the 1% elastin. Thanks to this small amount of elastin the cover fits perfectly around the edges of the mattress. Also, this makes the cover easy to remove and put back on. The foam used for this product is highly breathable doesnβt retain heat.
Support
The Casper Mattress falls into a category ofΒ medium to low firmness mattresses. This means that this product still acts as a quality memory foam mattress (adjusts to the shape of your body) while being softer and less supportive. This trait can be both a positive and negative thing, depending on whoβs using it.
People who require firm and highly supportive mattresses due to the medical reasons are advised to use the trial period first. Now, people who enjoy softer, snuggly mattresses, they can really fall in love with this Casper Mattress.
As we said before, this mattress has a moderate firmness level and provides a unique, tender feeling of support. So, if you feel a bit unsure about the softer mattress, use the Casper trial period! Maybe this firmness level is right for you.
For the end of this section, we must mention that the weight of the person who is using the mattress can influence the level of the mattressβ support noticeably. So, the higher the weight of the sleeper – the bigger softness of the mattress. Foam reacts to body heat and pressure so you will probably get a kind of sinking feeling if you lie down on it. Of course, there could be many variations of this effect. Other sleeping habits can also influence this feature. You may not experience this at all, but, as we said, the trial period is long and risk-free.
Comfort
The comfort level of the Casper Mattress comes from its gentle support, softness and breathability. The Casper Mattress isnβt one of those mattresses that will make you feel uncomfortable due to the firmness. This mattress aims for a more tender approach towards the support. It will act as a supportive sleeping surface, but, it will retain some softness. People who are tired of too firm foam mattresses may like the Casper Mattress for this quality!
Besides moderation and balance in firmness and softness, this mattress offers another comfy thing! Due to the breathability of the Casper Mattressβ layers, sweating or feeling to hot overnight can become the part of your history. The Casper Mattress allows free airflow and this way prevents accumulation of heat or moisture. Mattresses that have high breathability can significantly reduce various irritabilities that lead to disturbed sleep or frequent waking up. Also, the breathability of a mattress can shorten the timespan needed to fall asleep.
Bounce
Those who like neither to be pushed up by a firm mattress nor to sink into a soft one, will enjoy The Casper Original Foam Mattress. This product is designed to maintain the balance between the softness and firmness and to be somewhere βin betweenβ. The same happens with bounce. If you like the moderation you will be pleased. If a partner decides to get up before you, you probably won't feel a thing.
Breathability
The product is highly breathable, but it's not hypoallergenic. You are not going to be sweaty or feel too hot on this mattress. But, if you do have a sensitive respiratory system, you should try the product out first. All the layers of the mattress allow the free airflow. So, this product is good news for those who canβt stand when their mattress gets too warm. Since the Casper Mattress doesnβt retain heat, itβs a great choice for the summer months. Make sure to use lightweight covers.
Smell
The issue with smell does happen with this product, but it is not hard to get rid of it. You can air the mattress as soon as you unpack it, just in case. If you do sense the chemical smell, leave the mattress for a whole night, or two – that much needs to air thoroughly. Washing the cover can also help if you can still sense the traces of smell after the airing. This issue is unfortunately quite frequent with foam products. So, donβt be discouraged if you experience it, too. Just let the airing do its job.
Durability
Casper company offers a 10-year warranty on this product, so, itβs clear that we are talking here about one pretty durable mattress. But, the durability of this product depends on many factors, such as airing, the weight of the sleeper, proper care of the cover and frequency of flipping.
Price – quality ratio
Casper Mattress is one of those products that some will simply love while others wouldnβt benefit from them at all. This mattress aims for the balance in softness and support. To some extent, this is exactly what it offers. But, the problem lies here: the mattress has a unique softness level that can be recognized as good or bad only by personal preference. So, if you like soft mattresses without spring core, for you the price-quality ratio of the Casper Mattress is just perfect! If you like firm, supportive mattresses, then, we advise you to test the product yourself first. This especially goes if you have bigger bed frame.
The mattress is made of four various foam layers. There are two main types of foam in the mattress: latex foam and memory foam. The cover is made of 99% polyester and 1% elastin.
