Bear Mattress is an American sleep products company that specializes in mattresses used in lifestyle and recovery. The brand has developed its idea of enhancing the quality of sleep among athletes and other physically active people by incorporating supportive construction of the mattress and materials that help to control the temperature and facilitate muscle recovery.
The company is primarily a direct-to-consumer brand that sells mattresses on its official site and delivers them directly to customers’ homes. Bear manufactures its mattresses in the United States, and its manufacturing operations are based in a plant in Phoenix, Arizona.
The company’s key products are mattresses that have been innovated with cooling materials and supportive designs to enhance sleep comfort. Its products are categorized as the Bear Original memory foam mattress and some of its hybrid models, including Elite Hybrid, Star Hybrid, and Pro Hybrid. Hybrid models are foam with coils wrapped separately so as to add more support and pressure relief. The brand also creates a kids’ mattress called Bear Cub, designed for growing sleepers. These mattresses feature gel-infused memory foam and zoned coils to keep the spine straight and prevent pressure on the joints while sleeping. Cleaner materials are also a focus of the brand, with CertiPUR-US-certified foams and mattresses produced without fiberglass, formaldehyde, heavy metals, and some flame retardants.
The company retails its products via an online store using a bed-in-a-box shipping process, where mattresses are packed into tight boxes by compressing and vacuum-sealing them, then shipped to customers. Some of the purchases offer free shipping in the United States, a 120-night sleep trial, and a limited life warranty, which gives the customers an opportunity to try the mattress at home before they can make a long-term commitment. Bear also provides financing solutions and packages that include adjustable bed bases or bedding materials.
The company has, over time, established cooperation with showrooms in the country where customers can sample the mattresses before they make a purchase. Bear Mattress has established a successful online mattress business, basing it on performance-based sleep products.
