Layer breakdown
Polyfoam comfort layer
1.5″ thick · 2.4 lb/ft³ density
Measured at 2.4 lb/ft³ — clears the ~2.2 lb/ft³ durability bar we'd hold polyfoam to even under heavier (200 lb+) sleepers.
Polyfoam transition layer
1.5″ thick · 1.5 lb/ft³ density
At 1.5 lb/ft³ this foam sits under the ~1.6 lb/ft³ we'd want from polyfoam — low-density foam tends to soften and take body impressions sooner, especially under heavier sleepers.
Polyfoam support core
7″ thick · 1.5 lb/ft³ density
Measured at 1.5 lb/ft³ — solid polyfoam for average-weight sleepers, though heavier (200 lb+) sleepers would want closer to 1.8 lb/ft³ here.
