In our labs, it took a long time to diffuse the heat from two warm gel packs we placed on top of the mattress.įor what it’s worth, I never noticed that the mattress felt hot during the 30 nights I slept on it. Considering this, it was surprising that the Casper Wave Hybrid was one of the worst mattresses we’ve tested when it comes to heat retention. In general, hybrid mattresses do a decent job at remaining cool through the night, especially when compared to foam beds-the reason being, air can circulate around coils than throughout solid foam. What we don’t like about the Casper Wave Hybrid MattressĪfter testing it in our lab, we found the Casper Wave Hybrid mattress to be a bit too soft for our liking. If you’re looking for this balance, it might be a great option. The Casper’s surface felt more like that of a soft mattress, yet the spring base provided sufficient support so that I didn’t feel as if I was sinking into the mattress.

What we like about the Casper Wave Hybrid Mattress Its cushioning The next layer is a 1.5-inch piece of memory foam that has “ergonomic zones to help align your spine.” There’s also a 1.5-inch piece of polyurethane foam that integrates “gel pods under the waist and lower back add support and help keep your spine perfectly aligned.” The foam layers rest atop hundreds of springs. The company doesn’t readily advertise specifics about the mattress’ layers, but a customer service rep was able to quickly provide further details: The first layer is a 1-inch layer of polyurethane foam that has a “thin coating of cooling gel adds a refreshing feel.” The second layer is a 1.5-inch piece of latex, which Casper claims will provide further cooling to keep you comfortable overnight. The Casper Wave is a hybrid mattress, meaning it has a layer of foam resting atop a base of supportive coils. We previously tested the Casper Original and decided to give one of the brand’s higher-end offerings a go.

The company also carries a variety of other products, ranging from pillows to comforters and even dog beds. It has since expanded its lineup to include three mattresses: the Casper Original, Casper Wave, and Casper Nova. It’s been around since 2014, when the company launched its first mattress. We tested Casper's newest mattress, the Wave Hybrid, to see how it compares to the brand's other products.Ĭasper is one of the older bed-in-a-box brands.
