Bear Hybrid Performance Highlights

✅ Pros

• While the bed-in-a-box industry standard is a 10-year warranty, Bear takes it to the next level with their generous 20-year warranty, showing their confidence that the Bear Hybrid will last you for years to come.
• Responsiveness: If you are a person who tosses and turns at night, a mattress with good responsiveness is what you should look for. Bear Hybrid scored an impressive 9 out of 10 in our responsiveness test, meaning it adjusted quickly to movement.
• Cooling: Using a combination of pocketed coils, cooling gel memory foam, and a Celliant cover, Bear Hybrid sleep exceptionally cool.
• Edge Support: Bear Hybrid’s edge support allows you to comfortably sleep on the edge of the bed without feeling like you’re falling.

❌ Cons

• When you free the Bear Hybrid from its plastic wrapping, you may notice a slight odor. This is normal with boxed mattresses and should go away in a few hours.
• The Bear Hybrid didn’t do the best job at motion isolation in our mattress test, meaning it may not be the best option for people who sleep with a partner.
• This mattress scored a 7 out of 10 in our pressure relief test, meaning it doesn’t do the greatest job at easing the pressure from hips and shoulders.

Bear Hybrid Mattress Unboxing

The Bear Hybrid mattress took just over a minute and a half to set up. Bear was a little heavy on the packaging, and the mattress a bit heavy to pick up, so we suggest moving the mattress with a partner. There was a slight off-gassing smell; let your mattress air out for a few hours, and it should go away.

Customer Reviews

On Pain Relief

• “I bought it just off the reviews without trying it and I love it. I have a slipped disc and it’s the best mattress by far I’ve ever had to date.” -Lucie R.
• “I was skeptical to buy a mattress online but after all my research and reading bona fide reviews, I settled on the Bear Hybrid. It was a great decision. The mattress is extremely well made, very comfortable for both back and side sleeping and with the accompanying frame and foundation, provides me a great night’s sleep. I especially like the construction elements of the hybrid mattress and my spouse who has arthritic issues has definitely gotten relief. We would eagerly consider another purchase and recommend the product and company highly and without reservation…..thanks Bear!!!!” -Robert L.

On Comfort

• “Like sleeping on a cloud. Very comfortable that it turned me into a back sleeper. When side sleeping felt that I was sinking in at times but nothing that disrupted sleep. Very good at transferring body heat.” -Justin J.
• “I’ve been sleeping on my Bear Hybrid now for 2 months and from Day 1, it has been the best sleep I have ever experienced. I used to wake up stiff and sore but with Bear I wake up, heck bounce up, refreshed with no soreness at all. By far the best purchase I have made. Thank you Bear, well done!!!” -Gary S.

On Buying a Bed Online

• “Like many people on the market for a new mattress, we put in some time doing our research. We read countless reviews, watched numerous YouTube videos, and asked family and friends. While Bear wasn’t the #1 mattress-in-a-box Instagram ad in our feeds, it was the consistent winner for quality for the price. We settled on the Bear Hybrid, which has been an absolute dream (pun intended). After the first night, my husband and I woke up feeling so refreshed. And after 2 months, it holds up! There is enough support for myself (a side sleeper), and enough memory foam softness for my stomach-sleeping partner. It has completely changed our quality of sleep, so much so that we are left wondering how we ever rested on our old mattress! I highly recommend this mattress – you won’t be disappointed.” -Aubrey G.
• “After many hours and lengthy research and plenty of local store visits we decided to take a chance on the Bear hybrid. After the FIRST night I was able to sleep through the entire night and woke up well refreshed. Typically every morning I crack my back when driving to work now I can’t even crack my back if I tried! 10/10” -Sal M.
