Construction comparison

Latex hybrid vs all-latex mattress

The top comfort material can be similar, but the support core changes the mattress. A hybrid puts latex over coils; an all-latex mattress uses latex layers for both comfort and support.

Hybrid

Choose it when coils are a feature

If you like a spring-supported feel, want a reinforced perimeter or prefer the airflow potential of an open coil core, a hybrid is the logical direction.

All-latex

Choose it when you want latex throughout

If avoiding metal coils or maximizing latex content is central to your decision, an all-latex construction is the more direct fit.
