Construction
The Contour5 has a high-density foam support base. This is topped with a 2″ transition layer available in two firmnesses to suit your comfort preferences. On top of this is the luxurious, body-hugging core of 3″ ultra-premium 5-lb. memory foam and a 1.5″ layer of gel-infused high-density 4-lb. memory foam. The streamlined waterfall knit cover has flanged and tape-edge construction for improved layer anchoring and durability.
It features two dedicated comfort layers: a 2″ layer of cooling gel-infused memory foam and a 2″ layer of 5-zone natural latex for lumbar support. Like all of our mattresses, Solaire has a breathable cover made with organic cotton.
Materials
In the Contour5, you’ll find an ultra-premium 5-lb. memory foam core that gives the mattress its luxurious body-cradling feel. Plus, there’s also a CoolVent™ System that absorbs and disperses excess body heat and gel-infused 4-lb. memory foam with airflow channels. All of the foams are CertiPUR-US®*certified.

Comfort & Feel
Back Support
The Lumbar Zone® PCM Matrix is positioned at the center third of the mattress (where most of your body weight lies) to regulate temperature, absorb and disperse excess body heat, and allow for optimal support where you need it most.
The 50 firmness settings allow you to adjust the mattress’s firmness for maximum back comfort. The mattress’s combination of memory foam and latex layers helps to distribute weight evenly, minimizing pressure points that can exacerbate back pain.
Cooling Features
The cover is made with breathable organic cotton that sleeps cool. The CoolVent™ System contains a phase change material that absorbs and disperses excess body heat, while the gel-infused 4-lb. memory foam has airflow channels for added breathability.
Solaire’s cover is made from naturally breathable organic cotton, which helps wick away moisture and contribute to a cooler sleep surface. A 2″ layer of gel-infused memory foam helps draw heat away from the body. Below this layer is a 1″ natural latex layer known for its breathability and ability to regulate temperature. Solaire’s core consists of air chambers that can be individually adjusted for firmness, while allowing for airflow to prevent heat buildup and promote a cooler sleep environment.
Firmness Options
The Contour5 comes in two firmnesses: Medium and Firm. Medium hugs the body without letting your hips sink in too deeply. It’s ideal for side sleepers but also great for back and combination sleepers and couples with different preferences. Firm has less of a body-hugging feel and more responsiveness than Medium. It’s ideal for back and stomach sleepers, those who need or prefer a firm mattress, and heavier sleepers who weigh over 230 pounds.
