Both iterations of the Wave Hybrid mattress feature continuous ergonomic zones with gel pods placed in the mid-section for added lower back support, but of course you're paying extra for the advanced cooling tech of the Wave Hybrid Snow. Meanwhile, the original Casper Wave Hybrid mattress is roughly $500 less than the new Wave Hybrid Snow. (Of course, Tempur-Pedic has space-age tech from NASA on its side.) However, the Casper Wave Hybrid Snow is still a significant bargain versus the comparable Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Breeze cooling mattress with a starting retail price of $3,949 for a twin-long. These prices have remained unchanged since its launch in April 2021 - notable since many mattress brands have been increasing MSRPs on their top models due to inflation. The MSRP for a twin-sized mattress is $2,295, which is in the neighborhood of other companies' premium queen mattresses. At full price, a queen-sized mattress costs $3,395, while a king goes for $3,995. The Casper Wave Hybrid Snow is the company's top-of-the-line mattress and most expensive option. Still significantly less than top rival the Tempur-Breeze.Costs $500 more than the original Wave Hybrid.Most expensive mattress in Casper's lineup.Finally, an innerspring base adds further support and lift, and helps circulate air through the mattress. Then there's a layer of gel pods to reinforce the support layer above. Next, there's a thin layer of breathable, perforated foam coated in cooling gel, followed by another layer of perforated foam, this time with six heat-wicking bands spaced horizontally across the mattress to pull heat away from your body.Īfter this, there's a memory foam layer divided into three zones to provide pressure relief to your shoulders, waist and lower back, and help align your spine - they're firmer around the lower back and softer under the shoulders. This is what creates the cool-to-the-touch sensation. The top three layers aid temperature regulation, with a QuickCool Cover on top that's infused with phase-change material.

The Casper Wave Hybrid Snow is comprised of six layers.
