Type of Construction

These Serta hybrid mattresses are made with a combination of gel memory foam and traditional innerspring mattresses. Many people have decided that hybrid mattresses are a great mattress type because they offer the conforming feeling of memory foam with the support that comes from an innerspring. It makes the memory foam feel more responsive, but you still get the benefits of the pressure relief that it provides.

Serta iComfort Hybrid - An Overview

iComfort Hybrid mattresses are made with gel-memory foam providing the conforming layers on top. Those layers then rest on top of the traditional innerspring design. The hybrid design became popular shortly after memory foam mattresses came on the scene. Many people like memory foam mattresses because of the way they conform to your body’s curves.

The flip side is that they can leave you feeling as if you're sinking or stuck in the memory foam. Innerspring support underneath the foam takes care of that problem, so you get the best of both worlds - conforming memory foam on top and springy support underneath.

Serta iComfort Hybrids vary in features and prices but there are two key elements in every model. Every mattress includes TempActiv Gel Memory Foam, which is Serta’s most recent advancement in gel memory foam. TempActiv foam is infused with millions of gel beads that help improve the way it conforms to your body and controls heat. Secondly, every model has the Serta Hybrid Coil Support System which is a variable response coil design that’s soft at first touch and gets firmer with more weight.

There are additional foam layers and materials depending on the model.

The latest Serta hybrid mattress collection contains the iComfort Quilted models. There are 8 different models with the same memory foam and innerspring support system that you get with the regular hybrid models but these have more comfort layers. The Quilted models employ the same snowflake system as the regular hybrids as well, ranging from one to three snowflakes which denote how many cooling layers you get from the various foams within the mattresses.

Key iComfort Hybrid Mattress Features

Cool to the Touch CoverWhite cooling cover with blue stripes and textured stripes

Once you get past the CF1000s, into the CF2000s, CF3000s, and CF4000s, every model features a cooling cover. The cool feel helps you fall asleep faster, by lowering your temperature when you get into bed.

This stimulates melatonin production and signals to your body that it's time to sleep. More levels of cooling in the foams help this process last longer into the night, so you don't overheat and toss and turn.

Carbon Fiber Memory FoamHand pressing into Carbon Fiber memory foam, which is a gray color

Every bed in the iComfort collection features Carbon Fiber Memory Foam. This is a powerful material, providing three major benefits over regular memory foam.

First, it adds a cooling quality - the carbon fiber draws heat away from your body. Second, it adds durability - carbon fiber is super strong and makes the foam last longer. Lastly, it adds support - the strength of the carbon fiber makes this foam much more supportive for your body.

1025 iComfort Hybrid Support System1025 iComfort coil system with foam encasement surrounding the edges

This individually wrapped coil system provides the conforming support that makes these hybrids so comfortable. Each coil can respond to you how it needs to, so you get targeted support, making for great spinal alignment.

It also decreases motion transfer, which is added to with the use of memory foam. Finally, it's adjustable base friendly so you can use whichever type of base you desire.

Delivery Method

Serta iComfort Hybrid mattresses are available in many stores and online. They’re big and heavy mattresses so they’re usually delivered by retailer delivery teams. Front door delivery is free, while in-home setup and old mattress removal is available for a fee.

More about Serta

Serta is one of America’s oldest, largest, and most trusted mattress brands. Serta launched its iconic Perfect Sleeper brand in 1931. Today Serta is the largest mattress brand in the United States. It’s a part of the Serta Simmons Bedding company which operates 36 factories in the US. They also have a broad international presence.

There are hundreds of mattress brands available in stores and online. But most of them are just marketing and reselling beds produced by others. Serta actually is a manufacturer, designing and producing its own mattresses. They leverage their lengthy experience and large size to drive innovation and bring high-quality beds to market.

Serta has sold tens of millions of mattresses while maintaining a high-quality track record and level of sales success. And they have many loyal repeat customers. On the internet, there are review sites that gather and present what they purport to be ratings. However, they have a limited number of reviews. They don't fully reflect the experience of the millions of satisfied owners.

Conclusion

Serta iComfort Hybrid mattresses became popular very quickly because they have premium features and people sleep comfortably on them.

All the mattresses include TempActiv gel memory foam enhancing conforming support and temperature control. The 3-stage pocketed coil innerspring design delivers the right support to all body sizes because of its variable tension design. It’s soft where you like it and firmer where you need the most support.

These beds passed our tests with nearly universal flying colors! It was pretty amazing to see so many of the models generate such strong results. They all did a good job minimizing pressure points and supporting important areas like your lower back, providing pressure relief, and helping with back pain.

Some of the firm mattresses received scores of 'not recommended' for certain types of people, but this is fully expected, as firm mattresses do not offer as much pressure relief. It's something you just have to decide on when determining your preference.

Since all of the models tested so well, you can focus on finding the model that’s best for you. Narrow down the selection to your preferred comfort, features & price and you will arrive at a mattress that’s a good one. We highly recommend these mattresses.
