Obasan's 8" Essential mattress delivers an ideal sleep experience especially for slim side sleepers and back and stomach sleepers. The 8" Essential mattress is a beautifully handcrafted mattress that incorporates the highest quality, breathable, 100% certified organic materials. It provides an incredibly comfortable, dry, cool sleep for one or two sleep partners, based on individual tailoring for individual sleepers.

The Obasan Adjustable Core System provides highly flexible support layers. Cores can be purchased separately, which ensures the mattress can be altered at any given time. The 8" Essential mattress is available with a soft, medium or firm middle layer. Queen and king mattresses feature a middle layer that is split, allowing each individual sleeper to choose their own firmness.

The 8" Essential mattress is Obasan's firmest adult mattress and includes a built-in topper that provides body contouring and pressure relief. It also comes with a removable cover that can be easily spot cleaned and aired out. Obasan does not use harmful, fire retardant chemicals. Instead, Obasan uses organic wool that is quilted into the cover and is an all-natural fire barrier.

The 8" Essential mattress is an excellent choice for parents as a one-time investment in their child's sleep. Out-of-town guests will sleep well on an 8" Essential mattress in your guest room.

Recommended maximum weight per sleeper of approximately 225lbs (100 kg).
