1-Beautyrest Black Hybrid XCS

The Hybrid products are a cross between an all-memory foam mattress and innerspring mattresses. As far as the Hybrid goes, the top layer on which you lay is memory foam, all the way down to the layer of foam above the springs (the layer above the springs is usually the only non-memory foam layer and will be ½” polyurethane). When you lay on a Hybrid mattress, it usually feels more comparable to a traditional foam mattress, with a sinking-in feeling, but combines the bounciness of an innerspring mattress  

In the traditional lines, the foam layers are a combination of polyurethane foam and memory foam layers. The top layers will be polyurethane foam followed by memory foam layers deeper down in the mattress. Memory foam is a slow-recovery material, whereas, polyurethane foam is a quick-response foam. This will provide a very different feel than a Hybrid product.   

Additionally, Hybrid mattresses tend to have a flatter top, while traditional mattresses will have the more common tufted top. 

The Hybrid mattress is great for the person who is looking for a blend of traditional and all-foam mattresses. The Beautyrest Select Hybrid mattress line provides a comfortable memory foam top that provides a cradling sensation, along with supportive premium memory foam for restful sleep.

The Beautyrest Select Hybrid Mattress has a height of 13”.

The Beautyrest Select Hybrid mattress comes with the option to choose between a Firm, Medium, or Plush firmness.

Firmness is going to be subjective from person to person, but we do have a few guidelines that can help you to find the best fit for you. We recommend thinking about what you are looking for in a mattress first, and where your problem areas are. It tends to be easier to point in the direction of what model may work best from there.   

The easiest way to narrow down what you are looking for is to dive into what kind of sleeping position you prefer.   

Stomach sleepers tend to benefit from an overall firmer feel. Usually trying to avoid a pillow top model, and searching for a mattress that is going to be on the Firm or Extra Firm side will help with the support the stomach sleepers need, and will not be too soft. We usually recommend not selecting a model that is softer than a medium feel, as that tends to be too soft for this type of sleeper.   

Back sleepers tend to benefit from a Firm to a Medium feel mattress. These mattresses provide enough support to keep your neck and back aligned and offer enough pressure relief to help cradle those critical pressure points.   

Side sleepers usually find themselves looking into a Medium or Plush feeling mattress. Often, side sleepers will look at a Pillow Top model to add an extra bit of softness to the mattress's comfort level. Side sleepers have critical pressure points on the hip and shoulder area that often require a bit more pressure relief that comes from a Medium mattress or softer.   

These guidelines tend to narrow down the search a little bit, but it is important to remember each person is different and will have different needs.
