If you’re shopping for a new mattress, you’ve probably come across two popular options: hybrid mattresses and natural mattresses. Both offer comfort, support, and durability — but the right choice depends on your sleep style, preferences, and budget.
At Lola Sleep, we keep things simple by offering both Natural and Hybrid collections, so you can find the perfect fit without the confusion.
What Is a Hybrid Mattress?
A hybrid mattress blends pocket springs with layers of foam such as memory foam or support foam. This design combines the contouring comfort of foam with the bounce and support of springs.

Contours to your body for pressure relief.

Natural mattresses use luxurious fillings such as silk, wool, cashmere, and cotton combined with pocket springs. These breathable layers help regulate temperature and wick away moisture naturally.

-
Naturally breathable and cooling.
-
Hypoallergenic and chemical-free.

FAQs About Hybrid and Natural Mattresses
Which is better?
It depends on your needs. Natural mattresses are more breathable and eco-friendly, while hybrids offer contouring pressure relief at a lower price point.
Do hybrids last as long as natural mattresses?
Both are built to last, but natural fillings like wool and cotton can improve durability with proper care.
Which is cooler: natural or hybrid mattresses?
Natural mattresses are typically cooler thanks to breathable fibres. Hybrids can feel warmer because of memory foam layers, though they’re excellent for pressure relief.
Which Mattress Should You Choose?
- Choose a Hybrid Mattress if you want modern comfort, body-contouring foam, and excellent value.
- Choose a Natural Mattress if you prefer breathable, hypoallergenic comfort with premium materials.
