Pros & Cons

Mattress Construction

The Aspire Hybrid is 14'' thick. It consists of smart design and high-quality materials, which include consecutive layers of specialized foam as well as coils supporting the mattress and increasing its durability.

Cover: Freeze Plus Cooling non-skid breathable fabric designed to draw heat from sleepers' body.

Layer 1: 1.5'' of soft Atlas PR Gel Memory Foam providing sleepers with enhanced comfort and pressure relief.

Layer 2: 1.5'' of gel-infused proprietary Cloud Motion Memory Foam delivering extra contouring and reducing motion transfer.

Layer 3: 1'' of dense and elastic OrtoFlex Comfort Foam which provides orthopedic support by preventing excessive sinking.

Layer 4: 8'' of pocketed steel coils manufactured using an ultrasonic welding process, which increases their strength. The coils reduce sagging and add durability to the mattress.

Layer 5: 2'' of high-density Everlast Foam supporting the coils as they compress and reducing creaking noise.

Base: Non-skid fabric which prevents sliding keeping the mattress in place.

Feel

The cover of the Aspire Hybrid is characterized by a smooth and gentle satin-like texture. Its breathability keeps the surface of the mattress cool and dry.

The multiple layers of soft memory foam, especially the Cloud Motion Memory Foam with its gel, provide a cozy melting into the bed sensation.

The cushy foam is countered by the coils below, which curb excessive sinking and prevent sleepers from being trapped in the foam. All in all, the Aspire Hybrid gives a medium-soft feel.

Pressure Relief

Side sleepers weighing up to 250 pounds will feel comfortable sleeping on the Aspire Hybrid. It'll cradle their body mitigating pressure in their hips and shoulders while at the same time generate enough lift to help them maintain healthy posture.

On the contrary, the mattress won't be able to sufficiently support side sleepers whose weight exceeds 250 pounds. They'll suffer from over sinking, which may result in discomfort and pain.

The Aspire Hybrid works quite well for light and average weight back sleepers. Two layers of cushy memory foam will envelop their body and relieve excessive pressure in the thoracic and lumbar spine. The dense and flexible OrtoFlex foam in the 3^rd layer together with the coils below will distribute their weight evenly across the mattress reducing sinking and alleviating pressure points in their body.

XL back sleepers, much like plus-size side sleepers, will need a more supportive mattress to carry their weight.

The Aspire Hybrid's medium-soft feel will appeal to lightweight stomach sleepers. The thick layers of memory foam will wrap their abdomen area decreasing pressure in their lumbar back. At the same time, they'll feel highly comfortable and stable thanks to the support provided by the coils.

Stomach sleepers weighing more than 150 pounds won't feel stable enough on the mattress. Excessive sinking will throw their spine out of its natural alignment causing them pain. They may even suffer from curvature disorder in the long run. They'll require a firmer mattress.

Motion Isolation

The Aspire Hybrid scores high when it comes to motion isolation. Its two upper layers of thick memory foam absorb most of the kinetic energy generated by sleepers' movements. In other words, your partner's movements will stay on his/her side of the bed and you'll enjoy quiet and peaceful nights even if that partner is a restless sleeper.

Repositioning

Lightweight sleepers won't have a problem moving at night. In contrast, heavier sleepers may find it more difficult to maneuver on the surface of the mattress. The heavier they get (especially if they weigh close to or more than 250 pounds), the more effort they will have to exert in order to change sleep positions. The coils won't be able to provide enough pushback to prevent them from over-sinking and being stuck in the soft foam.

Edge Support

Surprisingly, the Aspire Hybrid is quite supportive on its perimeter despite its two layers of soft memory foam. The dense OrtoFlex Foam in the 3^rd layer together with the 8'' coils hardened by the ultrasonic welding manufacturing process do a good job keeping the mattress' edges stable.

What it practically means is that light and average weight sleepers will have a bigger surface to lie on the mattress as they won't need to move towards the center. XL sleepers, however, will most likely have a different experience lying close to the edge. Excessive sinking will make them feel less secure.

Heat Retention

Being more contouring, foam mattresses have higher capacity for retaining heat compared to latex mattresses. However, the Aspire Hybrid is an exception to that. It was especially designed to provide efficient temperature control.

Its Deep Plus Cooling cover uses phase change technology, which draws heat from the body and makes it disperse across the mattress preventing the creation of hot spots.

The gel in the Atlas PR Memory Foam facilitates breathability and helps regulate temperature. It works well with the coils, which enable free flow of air in and out of the mattress increasing the efficiency of the cooling effect.

To make a long story short, the Aspire Hybrid is a good choice if you tend to sleep hot or if you live in a hot and humid area.

Frame and Foundation

The Aspire Hybrid is compatible with most foundations, frames and adjustable bases you'll find on the market as long as they are robust enough to carry its weight. Hope offers you its own sleep platforms.

The Hope Upholstered Foundation is made of Pine and Spruce solid wood. It can support up to 750 pounds. It'll take you less than 15 minutes to assemble it.

It can carry up to 700 pounds. The Universal Bed Frame can easily be assembled, and it fits all mattress sizes. It's price is $108.
