Spring vs. Hybrid: What's the Difference?
Before you pick a line, pick a build.
Posturepedic Spring
A Spring mattress has individually wrapped coils with gel foam comfort layers on top. It feels like a classic mattress: supportive, a little bouncy, and easy to move on. You'll see two tops:
- Tight Top: a smooth, flat top. Feels firmer and more "on top" of the bed.
- Euro Pillowtop: an extra comfort layer sewn flush with the edges. Feels softer and more cushioned.
Posturepedic Hybrid
A Hybrid also uses wrapped coils, but adds ComfortSense™ Gel Memory Foam on top. You get more of a body-hugging feel, with the lift and airflow of coils underneath.
Rule of thumb: If you like a traditional bouncy bed, go Spring. If you like a little memory foam hug, go Hybrid.
