The Beautyrest Black Mariela Extra Firm is the most luxurious extra firm mattress available from Beautyrest. If you're looking for the best in construction and support, and you enjoy a very dense overall feel, the Mariela Extra Firm may be perfect for you.

The quilt on the Mariela feels soft to the touch and includes Tencel fabrics to help regulate body temperature and moisture. The comfort padding layers are all high-quality and CertiPUR-US certified to meet the highest quality standards in bedding. Key comfort features include a layer of Black Ice Memory Foam, the newest comfort material in the Beautyrest line. This high-end comfort material contours to the body in order to reduce tossing and turning, and includes diamond particles as well as phase change material to draw heat away from the sleeping surface. Another key layer is Comfort Response Latex which helps create a healthier sleep environment by being anti-microbial and anti-dust mite. Back support comes from the top-of-the-line advanced pocketed coil system. This system uses alternating rows of 3-piece braided coils that provide the best in support in durability. The individually wrapped system means each coil works independently to contour to your body and help minimize the motion felt when one person moves. The 360-degree foam encased edge is sturdy and allows you to sleep all the way to the edge without noticing a big difference in comfort or support.

Overall, the Mariela is a well-made mattress and, while it may not be for everyone because of its extremely firm feel, it's one of the best choices Beautyrest has available.
