Short answer: Our Cozey Hybrid Mattress is a 12-inch (30.5 cm) medium-firm mattress with 6 inches of zoned coils under a 2-inch Serene® comfort layer. It comes in Full, Queen and King, with a 100-night trial and a 15-year limited warranty.
It has 513 coils in a Full, 638 in a Queen and 812 in a King, plus a high-density foam rail around the coils so the edge holds up when you sit on it. We built the Hybrid for people who want more bounce, more airflow and firmer edges than an all-foam bed gives. This guide stays on the Hybrid itself. If you are still deciding between coils and foam, our guide to choosing between the Cozey Foam and Hybrid mattresses compares them side by side.

What is inside the Cozey Hybrid Mattress?
A quilted polyester cover (a 390 GSM top panel and a 180 GSM border) sits over five layers. Each one has a job.
What is inside the Cozey Hybrid Mattress?
| Layer (top to bottom) | Thickness | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Comfort layer: Serene® foam | 2 inches (5 cm) | The layer you feel first. It contours to shoulders and hips and eases pressure. |
| Transition layer: high-density foam | 2 inches (5 cm) | Firmer than the comfort layer, so you move into support gradually. |
| Coil layer: zoned coils | 6 inches (15 cm) | The core. It gives the bed its bounce and lets air move through the mattress. |
| Foam edge rail: high-density foam | 3 x 6 inches (7.6 x 15 cm) | A border around the coils that keeps the sides firm. |
| Base layer: high-density foam | 1 inch (2.5 cm) | A stable bottom for the coils to sit on. |
Serene® is a polyurethane comfort foam developed by Carpenter Co. It feels close to memory foam, but it is a different material, and we do not call it a cooling foam. Our guide to Serene foam and memory foam explains the difference and where Serene falls short. The foams in the mattress are CertiPUR-US® compliant, and the mattress is made in Canada.
How many coils does it have, and how do they work?
The coil count depends on the size: 513 in a Full, 638 in a Queen and 812 in a King. The coils are individually wrapped, so each one moves on its own instead of pulling its neighbours along. That is why the bed responds where you press and stays quieter than an older spring mattress.
The coil layer is also what makes the Hybrid sleep differently from our Foam Mattress. Six inches of coils leave open space inside the mattress, so heat has somewhere to go. You also sit a little higher in the bed and roll over with less effort.
Our product page describes the coils as zoned. We do not publish a zone count or map for the Canadian build, so we leave it at that.
What is the foam edge rail?
The edge rail is a 3 x 6 inch (7.6 x 15 cm) border of high-density foam that surrounds the coil layer. Its job is to keep the edge from collapsing when you sit on it.
With the rail, you can sit on the side to put on socks without sliding off. It is the main reason we recommend the Hybrid over the Foam Mattress for anyone who sits on the edge often. The foam edge of our Foam Mattress is standard, so it softens more under a seated person.
How tall is it, and what sizes do we offer?
The Hybrid is 12 inches (30.5 cm) tall in every size, 2 inches taller than our 10-inch Foam Mattress. Look for fitted sheets with pockets of at least 12 inches. Our sizes measure about half an inch under the rounded standard sizes, which is normal for foam and hybrid mattresses.
How tall is it, and what sizes do we offer?
| Size | Width x length x height | Coils | Box weight | From (CAD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Full | 52.5 x 74.5 x 12 inches (133.4 x 189.2 x 30.5 cm) | 513 | 59 lb (27 kg) | $850 |
| Queen | 59.5 x 79.5 x 12 inches (151.1 x 201.9 x 30.5 cm) | 638 | 70 lb (32 kg) | $895 |
| King | 75.5 x 79.5 x 12 inches (191.8 x 201.9 x 30.5 cm) | 812 | 86 lb (39 kg) | $1,095 |
Prices are the ones shown on our product page. Each mattress ships rolled in a single box of 44 x 18.5 x 18.5 inches (112 x 47 x 47 cm), whatever the size, so it fits through apartment doors and stairwells. Two people make a Queen or King easier to carry up stairs. A 12-inch bed also sits higher on a low frame, so our guide to the best mattress for a low-profile or platform bed helps you check the height.
How firm is it, and who is it for?
The Hybrid is medium-firm, about 6 to 6.5 out of 10, roughly half a point firmer than our Foam Mattress. It is soft enough on top to take pressure off shoulders and hips and supportive enough underneath to keep the lower back from sagging. Our guide to mattresses for side and back sleepers explains what each position needs.
It tends to suit:
- Hot sleepers. The open coil layer gives heat more room to escape than a solid foam core.
- Combination sleepers. The bounce makes changing positions easier.
- People who sit on the bed. The foam rail keeps the edge firm.
- Stomach sleepers on the lighter side. The bed holds the hips a little higher.
It is a weaker fit if you want the deepest sink and the least motion transfer, because our Foam Mattress absorbs more movement. It is rated for up to 250 lb (113 kg) per sleeper, and above that most people get better long-term support from a thicker or firmer mattress.
What base does it need, and how do you set it up?
A solid platform, a slatted base with gaps no wider than 3 inches (7.6 cm), a box spring or the floor all work. Queen and King sizes need centre support. On our Ara bed, the mattress rests directly on the slats. Our guide on whether the Ara works with your mattress covers thickness and slat spacing.
Setup takes a few minutes of work and a short wait:
1. Bring the box into the bedroom before opening it.
2. Use the bag cutter to open the wrap, then unroll the mattress flat on your base.
3. Carefully cut the plastic bag and slide it off.
4. Give it 24 to 48 hours to reach full shape. It is usually ready to sleep on after about 30 minutes.
The cover is spot clean only and is not machine washable, so a mattress protector is worth having. Rotate the mattress head to foot every four to six months, and do not flip it.
Our recommendation
Choose the Hybrid if you sleep hot, move around at night, or sit on the edge of the bed. Choose our Foam Mattress if a still, cradling feel matters more to you. If your frame is low, measure first, since the Hybrid is the taller of the two.
