Hush is a Canadian company that makes high-quality mattresses and blankets. Hush has recently entered the mattress market with two new models: the Arctic Luxe and the Iced Hybrid. These mattresses offer top-of-the-line materials to help you sleep more comfortably, and they aim to bring features that are lacking in other brands. Their blankets were a huge hit in Canada, and they are confident that their mattresses will be just as successful.

• Pros and cons.

• Feel and comfort.
• Construction and design.
• Performance test results.

Hush Iced Hybrid Overview

Pros

• Hypoallergenic: The mattress is made with Hush's proprietary graphite-infused Super Elate foam, which is antibacterial and allergen-free.
• Breathable: The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is breathable thanks to its unique blend of materials and construction techniques, including Hush Iced, graphite-infused Super Elate foam, and pocket coils.
• Affordable: The Hush Arctic Luxe was considered affordable for its exceptional performance. However, Hush Iced has proven to be even more affordable and competitively priced.
• Temperature Regulation: The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress has one of the best temperature regulation technologies on the market. It is infused with Hush Iced Tech, a phase-change material that helps regulate body temperature. This means that the mattress will stay cool when you're hot and warm when you're cold.

Cons

• May be a bit firm: The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is not as plush as the Hush Arctic Luxe mattress because it does not have a pillowtop layer. However, heavy-weight sleepers may prefer the firmer feel of the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress, as it will provide more support and less sinking.

Who we Recommend the Hush Iced Hybrid for

• Side Sleepers: The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress has a medium-firm feel that provides good support for side sleepers. The memory foam layer conforms to the body, while the pocket coils provide support.
• Couples: Couples need a mattress that provides good motion isolation. The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress has pocket coils, which are individually wrapped coils that allow for more airflow and reduce motion transfer. This means that you won't feel your partner's movements as much when you're sleeping.
• Hot Sleepers: The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress contains Hush’s proprietary cooling technologies, including Hush Iced, graphite-infused foam, and pocket coils. These technologies work together to help you stay comfortable and cool throughout your sleep.

Unboxing the Hush Iced Hybrid

Hush understands that the way a product is delivered and packaged can be a sign of its quality, so they put a lot of effort into ensuring that their customers have a smooth and hassle-free unboxing experience.

The mattress is delivered compressed in a box. You simply need to unbox it and place it on your bed to set it up. The compression makes it easier to lift.

We unboxed the mattress and placed it on the bed. We removed the plastic wrapping, and the mattress expanded to its full height of 11 inches in exactly 2 minutes. Setting up the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress was a breeze.

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress had excellent corner expansion, which means that the corners of the mattress expanded all the way to the very ends. This provides excellent support throughout the entire surface area of the bed and makes the mattress look sleek.

Most bed-in-a-box mattresses release a slight chemical odor when they are first unpacked. However, the Hush Iced Hybrid did not produce any odor at all. This is because Hush uses high-quality organic adhesives in the manufacturing of their mattresses. These adhesives are more expensive than traditional adhesives, but they do not produce any odor.

We were very impressed with the unboxing experience, and we believe that most people will be as well.

Firmness, Feel, and Comfort For Hush Iced Hybrid

Hush Iced Hybrid Firmness

Depending on your sleeping preferences, the firmness of a mattress is an important consideration. A mattress that is too firm can be uncomfortable, while a mattress that is too soft may not provide enough support.

The Hush Iced Hybrid is a medium-firm mattress, a 6.5 on our scale, that is ideal for most sleepers. It is soft without being too plush, and it provides a comfortable, supported, and responsive sleep experience.

Hush Iced Hybrid Feel

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is a soft and supportive mattress with a luxurious-looking cover that has a unique wave-like design. The top layer of foam is soft and responsive, while the layers of memory foam and pocket coils provide support.

Unlike the Hush Arctic Luxe, which has a pillowtop layer that makes it plusher, the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress does not have a pillowtop layer. However, the mattress still feels soft for lightweight sleepers thanks to the layers of foam. Heavyweight sleepers may find that the mattress feels just the right amount of firmness as they sink in and feel the true support of the mattress.

Overall, the materials in the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress allow for a comfortable sleep, even though it is not considered a plush "cloud-like" sleep experience. The Arctic Luxe, on the other hand, is categorized as such. Click here to read our review of the Arctic Luxe mattress.

Hush Iced Hybrid Comfort

We tested the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress in a variety of sleeping positions. The mattress was comfortable and supportive in all positions because it provided a good balance of coziness and support. This makes it a great choice for most sleepers, specifically side and back sleepers. We will discuss this in greater detail later in our review, specifically in the pressure relief testing section.

However, it is important to note that your individual sleep needs can vary depending on your body type and preferred sleeping positions.

Constructions, Materials, and Design

MaterialsandDesign

The Hush Iced Hybrid is a luxurious 11-inch mattress made with high-quality, CertiPUR-certified foams and materials that are free of harmful chemicals. It is designed to provide comfort, support, and breathability.

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is constructed with a number of different layers, each of which serves a specific purpose. This helps to ensure that the mattress will remain comfortable and supportive for many years to come.

Layers

1. Removable Cover - A luxuriously designed cover that wicks away heat and helps you sleep cool. You can easily remove and wash it whenever you need to refresh your bed, thanks to a hidden zipper.
2. Bamboo Viscose Cooling Foam - The top layer of foam is made of bamboo viscose, which is a naturally cooling material. This layer helps to regulate your temperature throughout the night, so you can stay cool and comfortable.
3. Super Elate Foam - Hush's proprietary Super Elate foam is the next layer of foam. It is infused with silver and copper, which help disperse heat and prevent the growth of bacteria. The Super Elate foam also provides excellent pressure relief, so you can wake up feeling refreshed.
4. Honeycomb Pocket Coils - The third layer of the mattress is made of 4-inch honeycomb pocket coils. These coils are shorter than standard coils, making them more responsive and supportive. The honeycomb design also helps isolate motion, so you won't be disturbed by your partner's movements.
5. Edge Support Encasement - The perimeter of the mattress is encased in a layer of firm foam. This foam helps to bolster the edges of the mattress, so you can get the same support from edge to edge.
6. Foam Support - The bottom layer of the mattress is made of high-density foam. This foam helps to prevent the mattress from sagging over time and ensures that it lasts for many years.

Performance of Hush Iced Hybrid

Cooling

Hybrid mattresses are known for their ability to keep sleepers cool. The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress takes this a step further by using a combination of cooling and heat-absorbing materials, including bamboo viscose and Super Elate foam, to create a neutral temperature profile. This makes it noticeably cooler than other hybrid mattresses.

A mattress with good cooling performance can help you stay cool and comfortable all night, especially if you tend to sleep hot or share your bed with a partner.

To assess the Hush Iced Hybrid's cooling performance, we performed our standard cooling test, which involved lying on the mattress for 20 minutes and then measuring how warm it got.

During our cooling performance test, we were impressed by the Hush Iced Hybrid's ability to regulate heat. We didn't feel any heat building up, even after 20 minutes of lying on it. While it is not as cool as the Arctic Luxe, we were still impressed by how well the Iced Hybrid wicks moisture away.

Accordingly, the Hush Iced Hybrid scored a 4.9/5 on our test.

Responsiveness

A responsive mattress is one that springs back quickly into place after you move. This allows you to move freely and sleep in all positions without feeling stuck. Hybrid mattresses are known for their great responsiveness, and that includes the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress.

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is made with a combination of foam and coils, which gives it a responsive feel. The foam layers provide a soft and comfortable feel, while the coils provide support and bounce.

To assess the responsiveness of the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress, we performed our standard responsiveness test. We placed a 20-pound ball on the mattress and then removed it. The mattress fully recovered in a matter of seconds, indicating that it is very responsive. This means that you will be able to switch positions easily without sinking into the mattress.

The Hush Iced Hybrid's responsiveness is excellent, earning it a well-deserved 5/5 score.

Motion Isolation

Motion isolation is especially important for couples or those who share a bed, as it can help reduce disturbances.

To assess the motion isolation of the Hush Iced Hybrid mattress, we performed our standard motion isolation test. We placed a glass of water on the mattress and dropped a 20-pound ball on the opposite side of the glass. The water in the glass barely moved, indicating excellent motion isolation.

We also conducted a second motion isolation test by having one person roll on one side of the bed while the other person reported any motion they felt on their side. The results of the second test were the same as the first: our partner did not feel any motion propagation to their side of the bed. This indicates that you will not feel any disturbance if your partner moves during the night.

Overall, the Hush Iced Hybrid isolates motion through its pocket coil design, high-density foam, and bamboo viscose layer. The pocket coil design prevents motion from traveling between coils, while the high-density foam and bamboo viscose help reduce motion transfer.

This makes the Hush Iced Hybrid a good choice for people who share a bed and want to minimize disturbances. We rate it a 5/5 regarding motion isolation.

Edge Support

Hybrid mattresses, like the Hush Iced Hybrid, are often favored for their edge support. This is because the pocket coil design of the mattress helps to distribute weight evenly, even at the edges. This prevents the mattress from sagging, which can be a problem with some traditional mattresses.

We performed two tests to evaluate the edge support of the Hush Arctic Luxe mattress. First, we applied firm pressure to the edge of the mattress with both hands and observed how well it resisted sinking.

When we pushed against the edge of the mattress, we felt significant resistance. This is an indicator of good edge support.

For the second test, we sat on the edge of the mattress to measure the amount of sinkage caused by our weight. The mattress provided excellent support, and we did not feel like we were going to fall out of bed or sink too much. The amount of sinkage was minimal.

Overall, The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress has exceptional edge support, which is important for people who like to sleep close to the edge of the bed or who need a sturdy surface for sitting or getting in and out of bed. Therefore, it scored a 5/5 regarding edge support.

Noise

To determine the noise levels of the Hush Iced Hybrid, we conducted our standard noise test. This test involves dropping a 20-pound ball onto the mattress and listening for any squeaks or noises using our highly sensitive microphones.

We were only able to hear a faint thud, but no annoying noises. This is impressive, as coil mattresses sometimes suffer from squeaking. The memory foam layers in the Hush Iced Hybrid mute the coils, which is why it is so quiet.

This is a great feature for couples who share a bed or for people who live in apartments or other shared living spaces.

This mattress scored a strong 4.8/5 regarding noise.

Sex

When choosing a mattress for sex, there are four key factors to consider: bounce, cooling, edge support, and noise.

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress is a good choice for sex because it is cool, silent, bouncy, and has good edge support. The responsive foam layers and springy coils in the mattress allow for more freedom of movement, making it ideal for couples. The mattress is also silent and has cooling technology, which helps keep you comfortable.

We gave this mattress a 4.9/5 score regarding sex performance.

Pressure Relief

The Hush Iced Hybrid mattress offers great pressure relief, especially in the top layers. This is due to the use of memory foam and bamboo viscose, which are both known for their ability to conform to the body and reduce pressure points. The mattress also has a pocket coil support layer, which provides additional support and helps prevent the mattress from sinking too much.

We used our standard pressure relief test to evaluate how the mattress responds to different sleeping positions. This test involves resting for 20 minutes on the mattress and then measuring the pressure in different body zones. The pressure map below illustrates the findings of the test.

As you can see, the pressure relief is very good throughout the mattress. The pressure map shows that there are no significant pressure points, even in areas where people typically experience pressure, such as the shoulders and hips. This means that back and side sleepers will greatly benefit from this mattress.

The results are positive overall, with some variations depending on your body type and how you sleep. This is why we gave this mattress a 4.9/5 regarding pressure relief.
