    Bought the Hybrid Elite Ultra after owning a memory foam mattress for 10-15 years. I instantly felt greater support from the springs. I also feel like it sleeps cooler than my old mattress. I cannot sleep if I am too warm, so that has been a big plus. Can’t speak for the durability as I have only owned it for a few months, but it seems to be well constructed.

    I would highly recommend the Bear topper. I purchased the topper to avoid replacing my mattress and what a positive difference the topper has made to my hips, shoulders, and neck pain.

    I'm a lifetime intermediate powerlifter and I watched tons of YouTube channels and came across Alexander Bromley. He recommended this mattress and has an awesome discount code which is just his name and I couldn't pass up saving the money and getting a better night sleep. Being a family man and wanting to have the best sleep possible means that I can be the best dad and husband possible. So much of our waking Life is determined by how well we slept the night before. Why Gamble on having more bad days than good? Go get a brand new mattress and sleep like your life depends on it.

    Polypropylene chemical wreaking mattress. Paid $1900 and had it in my apartment for about an hour. While putting the mattress protector on the bottom of it ripped. The smell continued to linger and I could feel the moist foam poking out of the bottom. Very cheap and I wouldn’t pay even $200 for something made of cheap springs and furniture foam. I wish I could say what it felt like to sleep on but I never got a chance to experience that as it fell apart before I could set it up. Definitely not organic and all natural like they say as the chemical smell gave me a headache. The spring cut my hand when I was moving and I’ve moved close to 10 mattresses in my life whether it’s for moving or disposal and this couldn’t have been worse.

    Updated review: April 24, 2025

    This is an update on a past review I had written for this company. At the time, the delivery was markedly delayed. It turned out to be a delay on the part of FedEx, after all, and was not the mattress company. The mattress company, however, took some responsibility and actually refunded $50 of the cost of the mattress. I found this to be a lot of effort on the part of Bear Mattress to ensure that my purchase met expectations. The mattress is excellent, and now I'm quite satisfied with their customer service.

    Original Review: March 11, 2025

    I ordered the Bear mattress because of a review in a reputable e-magazine, and because it stated Made in America. A firm mattress that was surprisingly very firm, but that was somewhat expected. Construction seems good. Made in America might be mostly true. Delivery was a big problem. First, received a message that the mattress would be delivered on a Saturday, then that was changed to Monday. I thought that was OK. The notice gave me a window of delivery from 8:45-10:45AM. I waited at home until 11:30AM because the notice also stated that I would have to go to FedEx to pick it up if I wasn't home when they delivered.

    I then asked a part-time staff person to sit at my home until it was delivered. The mattress was delivered at about 2:30PM. I complained to customer service and they basically said 1-Time of delivery is not guaranteed, 2-It's not our fault, 3-If you want to go through the process of returning the mattress that's your business. It was one of the most uncaring "customer service" responses I've ever experienced. I rarely complain, probably 3 times in my life, but this was simply irritating. The unsympathetic response is why I wrote this review. Multiple automated emails with nice statements, but once the automated, AI stuff is done, this company makes it clear that you as a customer are just another buck.

    My wife and I chose Bear Mattress over other brands mainly because of the made in America claim. The process of ordering was fine and when we finally got the mattress, two pillows, sheets and the mattress cover (which was fairly quickly), we were very disappointed to see that the "accessories" were not only 100% polyester but made in China!

    This was very misleading and is false advertising. The label on the bed stated that the bed is made from domestic and imported parts. Granted it was "assembled" in America, but how much of it was made in America will probably be very disappointing if I could ever find out. So far the bed is nice, but the hundreds of dollars we spent on it versus another brand and it not being fully an American product has me very upset. I will not recommend this company to anyone.

    I've owned a Bear mattress for about 4 years now. Since then, the quality of the mattress has declined significantly in all facets. This includes the cover falling apart where the threading has loosened and holes form (on the sides and bottom) even with minimal adjusting/movement, mattress sags in the middle/sides and doesn't return back to its original shape, etc.

    My biggest gripe was the customer service aspect of it. I texted, emailed, and called over a year and a half span after reporting the issues with my mattress. Somewhere around the six month time frame, they finally got back to me and said they'd send me a cover and ignored the other issues I had with the mattress. It's going on two years now, I've texted/emailed them back a good four times and they keep saying that the cover was lost in the mail and they'd ship another one but nothing ever came. I gave up and am just going to toss the mattress and look at other options that are more improved than what Bear is providing. Once you buy with them, you are no longer a priority or a concern unless you're buying something else from Bear. I'd pass buying with them when there are other better options out there who provide a warranty/customer service they stand behind.

    After we purchased a mattress, we found out the hard way, that the only ways to exchange a mattress is to purchase a new one and get reimbursed or to let them pick up the old mattress and wait for a refund, then order all over again, meaning upwards of 3 weeks without a bed.

    My husband and I are very different sizes, so decided to try a "split king" mattress which is actually two twin XL. He loved his, and mine was a bit too firm for me. I tried it out for 90 days, and it just didnt work. I do love the Celliant fibers though. You think this is a gimmick, but it truly does make my muscles feel all tingly and I swear helps recovery after a workout. The return process was a dream and the person (yep - a real person answered my call) I dealt with was lovely and easy.

    So I bought this thinking I would get a better mattress since I was paying so much more for it. I slept ok for the first few weeks. After about 99 nights it became evident that my back pain was increasing. I had 100 nights warranty. Since then I sleep on my couch because it's just way more comfy. I will buy an Ashley hybrid next time for half what I paid... $1000 is what Bear mattress stole from me.

    Softness is the main thing when looking for a mattress, if I get this from a mattress I will surely buy it because I've had sleeping disorders over the past years and it is because I was laying in a mattress made of stone I guess. The Bear mattress has given me the comfort I need while sleeping and I haven't experienced any sleeping disorder in the past and it has been the brand I've been using for a long time. But I would improve the material that's been used along the years to make a mattress. Nevertheless it is not an urgent matter to me but it is surely something I wish mattresses companies improve.

    At the time when my girlfriend and I tried it out, it seemed very comfortable. Also it was on sale and fit my needs and my girlfriend at the time liked it. It's very form fitting and quite soft and comfortable. But it took a while to get used to it because it was a bit too soft for my liking. Also, it's getting a bit old and we could use a new one. But it has always been able to help me and my lover get a good night's sleep.

    It made it out to be something very different and much more useful than what I had before. It offered a way to make it into being something very much better and more comfy than what I was use to as well. Plus, it had the best price and the set up to me seemed to be very easy and different from what we had been use to seeing. But the size and color was not the best. It needed something to me that makes it more better for all. It needed to be sent a bit faster as well compared to times I have had before.

    One of the most important aspects of this mattress is its ability to relieve pressure. The pressure points can be formed while lying on a mattress causing pain and discomfort for the sleeper, this is not a problem with this mattress. With some mattresses, you may notice a strong chemical smell when you initially unbox, and this can be bothersome. However, this did not last long, but they should improve this, the smell makes it seem of poor quality. Other than that, the cover is very soft and thin to help with breathability. The thing that sets the Bear mattress cover apart is that it is made with a material unique. Bear used Celliant (material) to aid in recovery by turning body heat into infrared light which in turn would improve blood flow for increased oxygen circulation and temperature regulation, this is amazing and unique.

    The reviews are all very positive and it seems to be better made with more comfort than other brands I had compared them to online. The gel infused memory foam does a great job at regulating my body temperature. I like that the mattress is made to improve blood flow and does a good job of keeping the person from overheating. It's very comfortable and is well made and suited for anyone who has back problems or someone who just finished physical therapy or has a tough time sleeping. I like that it is memory foam and making it easy to move around while laying down. The material of the cover is made of Celliant which helps one lead a more active lifestyle with less aches and pains.

    Bear Mattress is very comfortable and build to quality quilted materials to give you better energy afterwards. This mattress is built to help you with any health problems when you sleep giving you the comfort you need while you sleep throughout the night and help you re-energized well into the next day. And it is very soft. However, I would want to improve the temperature consistency of the mattress. I feel that it sometimes feels hot and get uncomfortable at night. But then the mattress feels cooler after not using it after a while. I may just have to adjust the temperature in the room, but it isn't a big problem at all. Overall it feels great.
