• The pocketed coil system further enhances airflow by preventing heat buildup.

Comfort

• The 2-inch pillow-top design with quilting foam and organic cotton adds a plush and luxurious feel, making the mattress exceptionally comfortable.
• Talalay latex adapts immediately to your body, providing a responsive yet gentle surface that cradles you as you sleep.

Back Support

• The 6-inch pocketed coil system is designed to provide targeted support and isolate motion. It adapts to your body’s contours, ensuring proper spinal alignment and reducing strain on pressure points.

• The transitional comfort foam layer evenly distributes body weight, enhancing support while maintaining a smooth transition to the coil layer.

Pressure Relief

• Its natural Talalay latex layer is available in three firmness levels (Plush, Medium, and Firm), catering to different sleeping styles and ensuring pressure relief for stomach, side, and back sleepers alike.

• The latex and foam layers work together to reduce stress on joints, particularly for side sleepers who need relief in areas like shoulders and hips.

Q2. How firm is Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress?

Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress offers 3 firmness levels.

• Plush – Soft and ideal for side sleepers or lighter individuals seeking pressure relief.
• Medium – Balanced and versatile, perfect for combination sleepers and the most popular choice.
• Firm – Supportive and firm, best for back and stomach sleepers needing extra lumbar support.

This range ensures a personalized sleep experience for various preferences and needs.

Q3. How thick is the Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress?

Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress has a total thickness of 13 inches.

This 13-inch construction combines comfort, support, and durability for a premium sleeping experience.

It has 5 thoughtfully designed layers:

1. 2-inch Organic Stretch Knit Cotton and Joma Wool Cover & Quilting Foam – Soft, plush, and breathable for a luxurious pillow-top feel.

4. 6-inch Reinforced Edge Coil Support Pocketed Coils – Offers durable support and motion isolation.

Q4. Is Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid Mattress Safe?

Yes. From my own experience reviewing the mattress, I can say that it’s built with safety in mind.

• CertiPUR-US® Certified Foams: I felt reassured knowing the foams used are CertiPUR-US® certified, which means they’re free from harmful chemicals, like formaldehyde or heavy metals. The mattress uses foams that are free from harmful chemicals, heavy metals, and formaldehyde.
• Natural Talalay Latex: Sourced and made in the USA, it is hypoallergenic and non-toxic.
• Made of Organic Materials: The cover is made from organic cotton and Joma wool, offering a safe and breathable surface.
• Non-Chemical Fire Barrier: What really impressed me was the non-chemical fire barrier made of hydrogenated silica. It’s rare to find fire safety measures that avoid toxic chemical treatments, but this mattress does just that.
• Minimal Off-Gassing: Additionally, the factory airing process ensures there’s minimal off-gassing, so you don’t have to worry about any strong odors when you unbox it. Foams and latex are aired out in the factory, ensuring a low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) product.

For me, this level of attention to detail made it clear that the Nestbedding Owl prioritizes health and the environment. The mattress’s thoughtful construction ensures a safe sleeping environment for you and your family.

Firmness

Let me start by explaining about mattress firmness in simple terms. Mattress firmness refers to how soft or hard a mattress feels when you lie down on the bed. It’s a perspective of your comfort level, and in turn contributes to deep sleep and a well-rested body.

It’s typically measured on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being extremely soft and 10 being very firm. The right firmness level helps you with pressure relief, promotes spinal alignment, and eases joint pain, especially in relation to your sleep position.

Does Firmness Affect Your Sleeping Style and Comfort?

Firmness is key to comfort, as it affects how well the mattress supports your body and keeps your spine in a neutral position. Too soft a mattress can lead to misalignment, while too firm a mattress can create pressure points. The goal is you choose a mattress that supports your body without cutting down on comfort.

Firmness Levels in Owl Mattress

Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress offers three firmness levels:

1. Plush – Ranging from 3 to 5 on the firmness scale, this is ideal for side sleepers needing pressure relief for their shoulders and hips. It’s best for sleepers under 140 lbs.
2. Medium – This mattress ranges from 4 to 6 on the scale, and is great for combination sleepers or back sleepers. Specially those who want a balance of support and comfort. It suits most body types and sleeping positions.
3. Lux Firm – It ranges from 7 to 9, and suits best for back and stomach sleepers needing firmer support. I would recommend this for someone who needs proper lumbar alignment.

Selecting the right firmness ensures that you get proper spinal alignment and thereby a more restful sleep.

Material & Construction

Q1. What are the unique technology, design, and materials used in the construction of the Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress?

Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress stands out for its thoughtful design and its quality materials. It combines advanced sleep technologies to create a mattress with luxurious comfort and robust support.

Here’s my breakdown of the mattress layers and materials.

1. First Layer: Organic Stretch Knit Cotton, Joma Wool Cover & Eco-Flex Quilting Foam (2″)

• Its top layer is made from soft organic stretch-knit cotton combined with Joma wool. This naturally breathable material helps regulate temperature and adds a touch of plushness.
• The quilted foam provides an additional layer of comfort while improving overall durability.

2. Second Layer: Natural Talalay Latex (3″)

• This layer features Natural Talalay Latex, which is a key element in providing consistent support and comfort. The latex is sourced and made in the USA and comes in varying densities (14 ILD for Plush, 24 ILD for Medium, and 36 ILD for Firm).
• It adapts to your body’s contours, providing pressure relief and support.
• Talalay latex is known for its breathability, offering airflow and cooling properties.

What is Mattress ILD?

ILD (Indentation Load Deflection) is a measure of a mattress’s firmness. It indicates how much pressure is needed to compress the foam by 25% when a 4-inch diameter disk is pressed into it.

For example, a lower ILD (i.e. 14 ILD) means softer foam, while a higher ILD (i.e. 36 ILD) indicates firmer foam. The ILD helps you determine the overall feel and support of a mattress.

3. Third Layer: Certi-PUR Transitional Comfort Foam (1″)

• A transitional layer of Certi-PUR certified comfort foam sits between the latex and the coil system.
• This foam helps with even weight distribution and ensures a smooth, gradual transition to the coils beneath, enhancing overall comfort and reducing pressure points.

4. Fourth Layer: Reinforced Edge Coil Support Pocketed Coils (6″)

• This layer consists of individually wrapped pocketed coils that provide strong support, particularly around the edges of the mattress. The coils help isolate motion, so you won’t feel your partner move during the night.
• Its coil system is designed to offer targeted support to different areas of your body, ensuring proper spinal alignment.

5. Fifth Layer: Support Foam (1″)

• The final layer is a support foam that acts as a buffer between the coil system and the foundation.
• This foam helps distribute pressure evenly across the mattress, adding to the mattress’s structure and support.

These materials make Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress a decent choice for a range of sleeping styles, as I’ll be discussing in the later sections of this mattress review.

Rating

Repositioning

Q1. How would you rate Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress from a repositioning & responsiveness perspective? 

Repositioning & Responsiveness

Repositioning

Repositioning is how easily you can move or shift positions while sleeping. You need to consider whether the mattress is making you feel stuck in one spot.

Owl Latex Hybrid mattress performs exceptionally well in this area. The combination of natural Talalay latex and individually wrapped coils allows for quick responsiveness, making it easy for you to change positions throughout the night without resistance.

Whether you are a side, back, or stomach sleeper, the mattress adjusts smoothly as you move.

How does Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid fare?

I find the Owl mattress fares really well when it comes to repositioning. Its in-built Talalay latex layer provides a responsive surface that prevents you from feeling “stuck” in the mattress. Added to that are its pocketed coils that support quick motion without disrupting your sleep.

This makes the mattress ideal for combination sleepers who shift positions in sleep often.

What Is Meant By Mattress Responsiveness?

By responsiveness, we understand how well a mattress adapts to your position changes or aligns to the contours of your body when you move or shift your weight. A highly responsive mattress will quickly adjust to your body shape and changes in position, providing consistent support throughout the night.

Nestbedding’s Owl mattress, with its hybrid design of latex and pocketed coils, offers a responsive sleep surface. You stay supported all throughout without feeling stuck in this mattress.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Q2. How would you rate Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid Mattress for providing comfort and pressure relief to sleepers? 

Comfort & Pressure Relief

Comfort Features

This Latex Hybrid mattress provides comfort due to its layered construction.

The top layer of Talalay latex offers a soft yet supportive surface that contours to your body’s natural curves without causing any sinking or heat retention. This creates a plush, cloud-like feel that’s perfect for those who enjoy a gentle sleep surface but still need solid support.

Its hybrid design, with the support of individually-wrapped coils beneath the latex, ensures that comfort is balanced with structural integrity, providing an overall comfortable sleeping experience.

Pressure Relief

In terms of pressure relief, Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress excels. The latex layer provides a cushioning effect that reduces pressure points, particularly for side sleepers who often experience discomfort around the hips and shoulders.

Its individually-wrapped coils further enhance pressure relief by offering targeted support where it’s most needed, adapting to your body’s weight distribution.

This helps maintain spinal alignment and reduces the likelihood of waking up with aches or pains, making the mattress suitable for individuals prone to pressure-related discomfort, like those with arthritis or chronic pain.

Cooling & Temperature Control

Q3. How would you rate the cooling and overall temperature control characteristics of Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress?

Cooling Technology

I’d recommend the Owl Latex Hybrid mattress if you’re a hot sleeper seeking a mattress with cooling technology.

It features a combination of organic cotton and Joma wool in its top layer, which naturally breathes and helps wick away moisture, keeping the surface cool.

Additionally, the natural Talalay latex used in the second layer offers a breathable and responsive surface that prevents heat retention, making it ideal for people who tend to sleep hot.

Temperature Regulation

In terms of temperature regulation, this mattress maintains an ideal sleep environment. The breathable organic cotton and Joma wool cover, combined with the latex’s airflow properties, ensure consistent airflow throughout the night.

What does this help with?

This helps to maintain a balanced surface temperature, so you won’t wake up feeling too hot or cold.

Overall, I find the mattress does a good job to prevent overheating. It ensures a comfortable sleep temperature.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

Q4. Does Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress provide reasonable motion isolation when sharing a bed with others?

Motion Isolation

On reviewing Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress, I was impressed by how well it handled motion isolation.

If you’re sharing your bed with a partner, especially one who tosses and turns, you’ll appreciate how this mattress minimizes disturbances.

The combination of the Talalay latex and individually-wrapped coils works together to absorb and reduce motion transfer.

You could easily move around without waking up your partner, making it a good choice if you want to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep without interruptions.

Edge Support

Q5. How would you rate the edge support of Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattresses?

Edge Support

The edge support of Nestbedding’s Owl Latex Hybrid mattress fairs well for most sleepers. Due to its reinforced edge coil system, I experienced that it provides excellent stability and support to the edges.

You could comfortably sit or sleep near the edge without feeling like I might roll off. Whether you’re sitting on the side to put on shoes or stretching out, the mattress holds its shape and doesn’t sag, offering consistent support throughout the entire sleeping surface.

This makes it a reliable mattress option for those who tend to sleep close to the edge or need reliable edge support for various activities.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Side Sleepers

My Recommendation

For side sleepers, I recommend the Plush or Medium firmness level of the Nestbedding Owl Latex Hybrid mattress.

Why Choose These Mattresses?

Side sleepers often need a mattress that contours to their body, particularly around the shoulders and hips, to reduce pressure points. The Latex Hybrid, with its latex comfort layer and responsive coil system, offers excellent pressure relief while maintaining proper spinal alignment.

The Plush model’s firmness (ranging from 3-5) provides a softer surface, ideal for those who prefer a cradling feel, while the Medium level (4-6) balances comfort and support.

Stomach Sleepers

Recommended Models

For stomach sleepers, the Firm version of the Owl Latex Hybrid mattress is the best choice.

Reason Behind Choosing The Mattresses

Stomach sleepers require firmer support to keep their hips from sinking too deeply, which could strain the lower back.

Its Firm level (7-9) provides the stability needed to maintain a neutral spine, offering a supportive yet comfortable sleep experience. The latex layer’s natural resilience and the pocketed coil base work together to prevent sagging while providing gentle cushioning for the chest and stomach areas.

Back Sleepers

My Recommendation

Back sleepers will benefit most from the Medium firmness level of the Owl Latex Hybrid mattress.

Why Choose The Mattresses?

Back sleepers need a balance of comfort and support to maintain the natural curve of the spine.

The Medium level (4-6) delivers just the right amount of contouring for the lower back while ensuring the hips and shoulders are supported evenly.

The latex layer’s responsiveness and the hybrid design make repositioning easy, which is especially useful for back sleepers who might shift positions during the night. The supportive coil system also enhances alignment, contributing to a restful sleep.
