Bear Elite Hybrid Luxury Firm

GoodBed Expert Review
Our Take on Bear Elite Hybrid Luxury Firm

Founder of GoodBed
Michael Magnuson

Founder of GoodBed, Leading Mattress Expert

Bottom Line - Is the Bear Elite Hybrid Luxury Firm the right mattress for you?
Bottom line best icon BEST if you
  • Want a mattress with a medium amount of softness
  • Are mainly a back sleeper (though this mattress can also be good for side sleepers who prioritize firm support over extra pressure relief)
  • Often sit or sleep along the edge of your bed (edge support is very good)
  • Prefer a slightly above average amount of 'memory feel'
  • Enjoy sleeping just a bit more 'in' your mattress than 'on' it
Bottom line not ideal icon NOT IDEAL if you
  • Don't like a lot of bounce in your mattress
  • Want a natural or organic mattress (though this mattress is still OK in terms of avoiding harmful chemicals)
Sounds good so far? Get the full details.

This is an in-depth overview of the Bear brand of mattresses, currently consisting of four primary models. We also have an in-depth review of the Bear Original, the company's first mattress.

Additional Information

General Description

Elite Hybrid Features

  • The cool to the touch, hypersoft hand-quilted cushioned cover combines PCM Fabric and Celliant fiber for all-night cooling and recovery while also providing supreme comfort without sinking in or feeling stuck.
  • Copper-infused Memory Foam harnesses the natural power of this antimicrobial element to eliminate unwanted body heat for a cool, clean sleep.
  • Zoned & Cut Comfort Foam provides additional airflow and enhances specific pressure points differently in each of the five zoned sections to release muscle tension and provide lumbar support.
  • Individually encased pocketed spring coils contour to your curves for exceptional comfort and support. Each coil reacts to your body’s pressure independently which minimizes and reduces movement.
