The material is supportive-yet-plush, naturally breathable, and cooling.
Latex is significantly more eco-friendly than memory foam and other synthetic materials commonly found in mattresses.

How is the Nest Owl Latex Hybrid Mattress made?
The Owl Latex Hybrid is a customizable mattress made using some non-toxic materials.
Like every mattress the brand sells, the Owl Latex Hybrid is made in Phoenix, Arizona.
All materials are sourced in the United States.
The hybrid design has a steel coil base and a natural latex topper covered in organic cotton and wool.
Latex mattresses (like the Owl!)
use organic, sustainably sourced materials to minimize environmental impact.
Thanks to its comfort layer (aka the star of the show), the Owl is renewable.
This removable layer is whats responsible for the Owl’s customizable firmness.
To start, the Owl Latex Hybrid comes in three firmness levels: plush, medium, and firm.
We had the medium-firm option in our studio to test.
The base of the Owl Hybrid is made from a layer of support foam and individually wrapped steel coils.
These offer support and keep air moving throughout the mattress to help regulate temperature.
This breathability and temperature regulation is important for hot sleepers, who tend to overheat throughout the night.
Features we love on the Nest Owl mattress:
Customization
Customization makes this hybrid mattress very unique.
The removable and exchangeable comfort layer allows you to adjust its firmness after sleeping on it.
This is a huge plus if you arent sure your desired firmness level.
Breathability
Hybrid latex mattresses are naturally more breathable than all-foam mattresses.
How firm is the Nest Owl Latex Hybrid mattress?
This particular mattress lands somewhere between a 6 and an 8 on a firmness scale of 1 to 10.
Its worth noting that a split option is offered in King and California King sizes only.
The exact measurements for each mattress are below.
How much does this Nest Owl Hybrid Latex mattress cost?
Thats a little more expensive than similar beds from mattress brands Avocado, WinkBed,Saatva, and Birch.
The brand also offers discounts regularly.
However, the brand says the plush design is the best option for side sleepers.
Medium and firm wont provide adequate pressure relief for the lower body, and could cause pain or misalignment.
Stomach: Yes (medium-firm or firm)
Our product testers are combination sleepers by nature.
Back: Yes (medium-firm or firm)
Back sleepers will enjoy the firm support of this medium-firm mattress.
A mattress with good motion isolation can minimize this disruption.
But if youre a very light sleeper, it might not muffle movement quite enough.
Even with the reinforced coils, edge support wasnt anything special on this mattress.
Though its an improvement from many softer mattresses weve tried, our team wasnt blown away.
Bounce-back: 5/5
Our bounce-back test evaluates how springy a mattress surface is and how quickly it regains shape.
The results were shocking!
During testing, our team felt they could easily bounce between positionsbut the dumbbell proved there was little bounce.
In the second part of the test, we removed the weight.
Still, this mattress is a little more expensive and has fewer certifications than other latex hybrids weve reviewed.
