| Question | Latex hybrid | All-latex |
|---|---|---|
| Support core | Steel coils | Latex foam |
| Typical feel | Responsive, spring-supported | Responsive, foam-supported |
| Edge design | Can use reinforced perimeter coils | Depends on latex density and layer design |
| Airflow | Open coil core can promote airflow | Depends on latex perforation and cover |
| Weight | Often heavy | Can be very heavy because latex is dense |
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.
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.
Leaning hybrid?
Eco Terra is one example of the latex-over-coils architecture discussed here. Compare it with other hybrids before deciding.
