When Casper introduced its original bed-in-a-box, it changed the way people shop for sleep forever. Today, The Casper Mattress continues to be one of our most popular models, combining pressure relief, cooling technology, and reliable support in one streamlined design.
Whether you’re a side sleeper looking for plush comfort, a back sleeper needing spinal support, or simply searching for a mattress that sleeps cool, The Casper is designed to deliver balanced comfort night after night.
In this Casper mattress review, we’ll break down the technology behind The Casper Mattress, including its construction, firmness levels, materials, sizes, and what makes it stand out from traditional memory foam mattresses.
What is The Casper Mattress made of?
Premium materials & certifications
The Casper is made in Canada using high-quality materials designed for comfort, durability, and safety.
Highlights include:
- Made in Canada
- CertiPUR-US® Certified Foam
- Hypoallergenic construction
- Latex-free materials
- Recycled polyester and recycled cotton in the cover
- 100% polyurethane foam layers
These materials are selected to provide a cleaner, more comfortable sleep environment while supporting long-term performance.
Inside The Casper: Four layers of pure comfort
The Casper Mattress is built with four carefully engineered layers that work together to provide cooling comfort and long-lasting support.
1. Cooling Eco Knit Mattress Cover
The outer mattress cover is designed with sustainability and comfort in mind. Made with recycled materials and cooling technology, the Cooling Eco Knit Mattress Cover delivers a cool-to-the-touch feel the moment you climb into bed.
The breathable knit construction also helps improve airflow around the mattress surface, creating a more comfortable sleep environment.
2. AirScape® Cooling Foam
One of Casper’s signature innovations is its AirScape® Cooling Foam. This responsive, gel-infused foam layer features a perforated surface that promotes airflow and helps move heat and humidity away from the body.
Traditional memory foam can sometimes retain heat, but AirScape® Technology helps create a breathable sleep surface that keeps hot sleepers more comfortable throughout the night. It also adds a subtle bounce that makes changing positions easier.
3. Pressure-Relieving Premium Memory Foam
Beneath the cooling AirScape® layer is Casper’s Pressure-Relieving Premium Memory Foam. This layer gently contours to the body to absorb pressure and reduce motion transfer.
That means less strain on common pressure points like the shoulders, hips, and lower back, while also minimizing disruptions from a partner moving during the night. The result is a more cradled, supportive sleep experience that helps promote deeper rest.
4. ProSupport High-Density Base Foam
At the foundation of the mattress is ProSupport High-Density Base Foam, a durable support layer designed to maintain the mattress’s shape over time.
This firm base helps prevent sagging and sinking while supporting proper spinal alignment. It also reinforces the comfort layers above it, ensuring the mattress remains supportive and consistent for years to come.

Why do Canadian sleepers love The Casper Mattress?
A best seller for a reason
The Casper Mattress is trusted by sleepers everywhere because it blends the contouring comfort of memory foam with responsive support and a breathable design. Unlike older memory foam beds that can trap heat or feel overly soft, The Casper is engineered to help sleepers stay cool, aligned, and comfortable throughout the night.
Its thoughtfully layered foam construction provides pressure relief without excessive sinking, making it a strong choice for a wide range of sleep positions and body types.
Available in three firmness levels
One of the standout features of The Casper Mattress is that it comes in three firmness options (Plush, Medium, and Firm), allowing sleepers to choose the feel that best matches their comfort preferences.
Plush
The Plush model is ideal for side sleepers and combo sleepers who want maximum pressure relief and a softer, more contouring feel. Its cushioning comfort gently hugs the body while still providing the support needed for proper alignment.
The Casper Plush memory foam mattress is especially popular among sleepers who prefer a “sink-in” feel without sacrificing support. The softer foam layers cushion pressure points around the hips and shoulders, making it an excellent option for side sleepers.
Medium
The Medium firmness is designed as the most versatile option in the collection. It offers a balanced blend of cushioning and support, making it ideal for side, back, and combination sleepers.
For many shoppers, the Medium version delivers the classic “just right” mattress feel.
Firm
The Firm model provides a sturdier sleep surface with responsive support. It’s best suited for back and stomach sleepers who want stronger support and enhanced spinal alignment.
The firmer feel also appeals to sleepers who prefer sleeping more “on” the mattress rather than deeply contouring into it.

Sleep cool all night
Temperature regulation is one of the biggest reasons sleepers choose The Casper. The combination of the Cooling Eco Knit Cover and AirScape® Cooling Foam helps prevent overheating while maintaining the body-contouring feel memory foam is known for.
For sleepers who often wake up warm or uncomfortable, this cooling-focused design can make a noticeable difference in overall sleep quality. However, if you’re looking for maximum cooling, consider Casper’s most advanced and award-winning cooling mattress, the Wave Hybrid Snow.
Is The Casper Mattress worth it?
The Casper Mattress continues to earn its reputation as a best-selling bed-in-a-box by combining innovative sleep technology with everyday comfort and support. From the breathable AirScape® Cooling Foam and Cooling Eco Knit Mattress Cover to the Pressure-Relieving Premium Memory Foam and ProSupport High-Density Base Foam, every layer is thoughtfully designed to help sleepers rest more comfortably night after night.
With Plush, Medium, and Firm options available, The Casper makes it easy to find the right feel for your preferred sleep position and comfort level. Add in premium materials, cooling performance, and the convenience of easy delivery, and it’s clear why The Casper remains a go-to choice for so many sleepers looking for a reliable memory foam mattress.

How do I clean my Casper mattress?
Wondering how to clean a memory foam mattress? Start with these steps.
Step 1: Protect your mattress
We strongly recommend using a mattress protector to prevent damage to your Casper bed (plus a protector makes cleaning simple—just remove and wash as needed). Check out the Casper Mattress Protector or Casper QuickCool™ Mattress Protector, both of which are waterproof and designed to shield your mattress against stains, dirt, and wear.
Step 2: Keep it clean
No protector? Just spot clean gently with mild detergent and water, and let it air dry.
Step 3: Rotate to maintain
Rotate your mattress 180 degrees every three to six months to ensure it wears evenly. Do not flip it—Casper beds are designed with a specific top and bottom.

Who is The Casper Plush Mattress best for?

It’s also a good fit for anyone who enjoys a “sink-in” feel without sacrificing supportive alignment.

Why choose The Casper Mattress?
Inspired by the first mattress that pioneered the bed-in-a-box category, The Casper is an upgraded take on the original memory foam mattress. Designed exclusively for Casper, it combines premium comfort foams, enhanced cooling features, and a high-quality cover to deliver a more comfortable, supportive, and refreshing sleep experience, all with the convenience of easy delivery to your door.
Is The Casper Mattress good for side sleepers?
Yes, The Casper Mattress is one of the best mattresses for side sleepers. It features a blend of ProSupport High-Density Base Foam, Pressure-Relieving Premium Memory Foam, and AirScape® Cooling Foam to keep your spine properly aligned. This balance helps side sleepers avoid shoulder and hip soreness while maintaining healthy posture throughout the night.
The Plush version of this mattress is generally recommended for side sleepers as it provides extra cushioning around the shoulders and hips. Further, The Casper’s layers of breathable foam (including a layer of AirScape® Cooling Foam) improve airflow and reduce heat buildup, which is a bonus if you tend to get warm while sleeping on your side.

How long does a memory foam mattress last?
Wondering “how long does a mattress last?” The average mattress lasts between 7 and 10 years when cared for properly. However, memory foam mattresses, especially those made of high-density foam, like The Casper, can retain their shape and offer support longer than low-quality foam mattresses (sometimes up to 12 years).
Whether it's foam, spring, or hybrid, the longevity of a mattress is tied to the quality of the components. Casper Canada mattresses are backed by a 10-year warranty and use the highest quality components, like CertiPUR-US® Certified Foam, to ensure every mattress provides years of comfortable, restful sleep.
