Purchasing and Returns
For those unsure if the hush mattress is the right fit, Hush offers a 100 night sleep trial, allowing you to genuinely test the mattress before committing. The hush warranty cover spans 10 years, providing long-term peace of mind. If the mattress doesn't meet your expectations during the night sleep trial, the return process is straightforward: simply contact Hush's customer service team and they will arrange for the mattress to be picked up from your home at no additional cost, issuing a full refund once the return is processed.
To complement your purchase, Hush is currently offering a free bedding bundle plus up to $500 off — making this already exceptional good mattress an even stronger value. The free bedding bundle includes premium bedding essentials to complete your sleep setup from night one. Adding a mattress protector to your order is also recommended to preserve the mattress cover and maintain the hush warranty cover.
Unboxing and First Impressions
The Hush Graph-Iced Cooling Mattress arrives as a bed in a box — compact, well-designed, and easy to transport and manoeuvre into the bedroom. This bed in a box format makes it particularly convenient for tighter spaces or narrower bed frame setups. The unboxing process is straightforward: the mattress comes securely rolled and vacuum-sealed and expands immediately once removed from the box. Within minutes, it fully takes shape, revealing its sleek, high-quality design. First impressions confirm this is a premium cooling mattress built to last.
Construction
The Hush mattress construction is a masterclass in layered sleep engineering, combining graphite infused memory foam, phase change material, and pocket coils into a cohesive, high-performance hybrid mattress. Here’s a complete breakdown:
1 & 2. Graph-Iced Dual Fusion Layer (Graphite Infused Memory Foam)
Unlike traditional all foam mattresses where the top layer primarily offers cushioning, the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress combines comfort with advanced iced cooling technology. These two top layers feature graphite infused memory foam — a form of infused memory foam that actively draws heat away from your body. The graphite infused foam dissipates body heat rapidly, ensuring a cooler sleeping position throughout the night. This graphite infused foam is what sets the Hush Graph-Iced apart from standard memory foam or innerspring mattresses — it truly performs. The phase change material embedded within these layers further enhances cooling features by absorbing and releasing heat as your body temperature fluctuates.
3. AirCross Body Ventilated Transition Layer
The body ventilated transition layer — Hush’s proprietary AirCross design — boosts breathability with specialized ventilation channels. This ventilated foam transition layer enhances airflow, reduces heat buildup, and keeps you cool throughout the night. It functions as the cooling cover of the internal structure, working in tandem with the outer cooling cover to deliver comprehensive temperature management. This ventilated foam design addresses one of the core weaknesses of all foam mattresses: the tendency to trap body heat — effectively solving it.
4. IcedShift Cooling Band (Phase Change Material)
The IcedShift Cooling Band is a standout feature and another application of phase change material technology within the hush mattress construction. Embedded within the mattress, this innovative band actively pulls heat away from your body, maintaining a consistent, comfortable temperature. By efficiently dissipating excess heat, it helps prevent overheating — a critical advantage for hot sleepers who struggle with memory foam mattresses that trap body heat.
5. Foam Encased Pocket Coils
The foam encased pocket coils are your key to uninterrupted sleep. These pocket coils provide both firm support and targeted pressure relief while eliminating disturbance from your partner’s movements. Unlike the coil systems in basic innerspring mattresses, the foam encasement around each of these pocket coils significantly enhances motion isolation and reduces noise — making the Hush Graph-Iced a true hybrid mattress that outperforms all foam mattresses on responsiveness.
6. Ultra Support High Resilient Foam Base
The high resilient foam base is the essential foundation of the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress, delivering the stability and durability needed for a restful night. This base ensures the mattress maintains its shape and structure over time, providing consistent firm support from edge to edge. The high resilient foam base works in harmony with the foam layers above to create a balanced, comfortable usable sleep surface that lasts.
Antimicrobial Copper Foam Layer
The hush mattress also incorporates an antimicrobial copper foam layer within its construction. Copper infused memory foam is well established for its antimicrobial properties — actively inhibiting the growth of bacteria, mould, and mites within the mattress. This copper infused memory foam element supports hygiene and long-term freshness, contributing to better sleep hygiene over the life of the mattress.
Comfort
If you’re in search of a soothing, cooling mattress with superior pressure relief, the Hush Graph-Iced has you covered. This hush mattress offers ultimate comfort for all sleeping positions, whether you sleep on your back, side, or stomach. It does a stellar job at alleviating back and shoulder pain, as well as reducing stiffness — while the graphite infused memory foam top layers deliver more pressure relief than standard memory foam options at this price point.
While maintaining a neutral spine and proper spinal alignment, and providing ample support for key areas of your body, this good mattress is sure to become your most-loved sleep setup. The combination of infused memory foam comfort layers and supportive pocket coils gives the Hush Graph-Iced a feel that neither all foam mattresses nor basic innerspring mattresses can replicate. As a certified sleep science coach would confirm, this kind of layered, zoned support is exactly what quality restorative sleep requires.
Firmness
The Hush Graph-Iced Cooling Mattress scores 5.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale — a medium firm mattress profile with a Medium-Plush feel. This makes it a medium firm mattress suited to a wide range of sleepers, most notably side sleepers and combination sleepers. In our testing for this mattress review, the Graph-Iced Mattress provided ample support while maintaining excellent edge support and minimizing motion transfer.
For sleepers who require a firmer mattress — particularly heavyweight stomach sleepers or heavier back and stomach sleepers — the firmness level may feel slightly soft, and a firmer mattress option within Hush’s lineup should be considered. That said, for the majority of sleeping positions, the medium firm mattress profile of the Hush Graph-Iced is an ideal balance of comfort and support.
Motion Transfer
Have a partner, pet, or child who tosses and turns? The Hush Graph-Iced Cooling Mattress features proprietary Zero Motion Transfer technology, which isolates movement with remarkable precision. Thanks to the foam encased pocket coils firm support base, you will feel virtually no movement — including someone getting in and out of bed — allowing you to sleep undisturbed throughout the night.
In our hush mattress review testing, the motion isolation performance was exceptional. The foam layers above the pocket coils absorb surface-level movement, while the individually wrapped pocket coils prevent vibration from travelling across the mattress. The result is one of the best motion isolation scores we’ve recorded in any hybrid mattress at this price point — a 10/10. For couples, this alone makes the Hush Graph-Iced a compelling choice over standard innerspring mattresses or basic all foam mattresses.
Cooling
The cooling features of the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress are genuinely class-leading. The cooling cover and multiple layers of cooling features work together to create a sleep environment that simply does not trap body heat — even for dedicated hot sleepers.
The system begins with the AirCross body ventilated transition layer, a ventilated foam layer that enhances airflow and supports temperature control. The IcedShift cooling cover band further optimizes heat dispersion using phase change material technology. Two layers of graphite infused foam — the graphite infused memory foam dual fusion layers — add additional heat dissipation, ensuring the mattress stays cool all night long. The phase change material embedded throughout actively responds to fluctuations in your body temperature, absorbing and releasing heat as needed.
For hot sleepers who have struggled with memory foam options that trap body heat, the Hush Graph-Iced is a revelation. Similar to the Casper Wave Hybrid Snow, our testing recorded a surface temperature of just 14.8°C — the best cooling result in this mattress review category. Whether you’re comparing it to a snow mattress or any other cooling mattress on the market, the Hush Graph-Iced stands at the top.
Edge Support
The Hush Graph-Iced Mattress features excellent edge support, making it a standout choice for those who value stability and durability across the entire usable sleep surface. The reinforced perimeter — a feature often underrated in bed in a box mattresses — ensures the mattress maintains its structure even when pressure is applied near the edges.
This good edge support is particularly beneficial for individuals who like to sit or sleep close to the edge of their bed frame, as it provides confidence and comfort without the sensation of rolling off. The bed’s strong support at the perimeter also means heavier individuals can rely on full edge support across the entire width of the mattress — a meaningful advantage over most all foam mattresses where edges tend to compress prematurely. In our testing, the good edge support of the hush mattress remained consistent even under significant lateral body weight.
Sinkage and Responsiveness
The Hush Graph-Iced Cooling Mattress offers a balanced level of sinkage, making it an excellent option for those who seek firm support without feeling stuck in the mattress. When lying down, you experience a subtle contouring effect as the foam layers respond to your body’s shape — but it doesn’t sink excessively. This level of sinkage is ideal for those who prefer a sleeping position that offers both comfort and pressure relief.
The Graph-Iced Mattress is highly responsive to your body, seamlessly adapting to movements thanks to the graphite infused foam layers and reactive pocket coils. This responsiveness is a major advantage for combination sleepers who change sleeping position throughout the night — a quality that most all foam mattresses simply cannot match. The hush mattress recovers quickly from compression, ensuring the usable sleep surface always feels fresh and supportive.
How does it suit different sleeping positions?
Side Sleepers
For side sleepers, the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress delivers excellent pressure relief and firm support for a restful night. The infused memory foam top layers contour closely to the shoulders and hips — the key pressure relief zones for side sleepers — while the pocket coils ensure spinal alignment is maintained. Average weight side sleepers will find the Medium-Plush feel ideal, while lightweight side sleepers will particularly appreciate the cradling quality of the graphite infused memory foam without excessive sinkage.
Back Sleepers
The Hush Graph-Iced Mattress uses a combination of foam layers and pocket coils to ensure the spine stays aligned, offering enough pressure relief around the lumbar area while maintaining a supportive medium firm mattress surface. Back sleepers will appreciate how the mattress adapts to their body’s natural curve, providing proper spinal alignment without the excessive contouring that can cause misalignment on softer mattress options. The infused memory foam layers deliver consistent spinal alignment support whether the sleeper is lightweight or of heavier body weight.
Stomach Sleepers
Stomach sleepers will find the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress supportive enough to prevent their hips from sinking too deeply, which can cause spinal misalignment. The medium firm mattress surface prevents the mattress from sinking excessively — a common issue for stomach sleepers on softer mattress designs. Lightweight stomach sleepers and average weight stomach sleepers will find the balance of cushioning and support excellent. Heavyweight stomach sleepers may prefer a firmer mattress for maximum hip and midsection support, but the Hush Graph-Iced remains a strong option for back and stomach sleepers of light to medium body weight.
Back and Stomach Sleepers
For those who alternate between back and stomach sleeping positions, the medium firm mattress profile of the Hush Graph-Iced delivers consistent spinal alignment across both orientations. Back and stomach sleepers need a mattress that maintains neutral spine support without excessive sinkage in either position, and the hush mattress delivers exactly this. The foam encased pocket coils provide a responsive, adaptable firm support base for all back and stomach sleepers, regardless of body weight.
Combination Sleepers
The Hush Graph-Iced Mattress is ideal for combination sleepers, offering a balance of comfort, responsiveness, and cooling features to suit those who shift sleeping positions throughout the night. The graphite infused foam adapts quickly to movement, allowing seamless transitions between back, side, or stomach sleeping position without feeling stuck. The top layers provide the right amount of cushioning to relieve pressure points in the shoulders and hips, while the pocket coils maintain proper spinal alignment regardless of sleeping position.
Lightweight Sleepers
The Hush mattress offers a plush yet supportive top layer that cradles lighter bodies without feeling overly firm, ensuring more pressure relief in key areas like the hips and shoulders. The responsive graphite infused memory foam adapts quickly to movement, making it easy to shift sleeping positions without feeling stuck. The cooling features of the Hush Graph-Iced ensure lightweight sleepers who tend to sleep hot will also stay comfortable throughout the night.
Heavy People
Heavier sleepers will find the hush mattress equally accommodating, thanks to its deep firm support layers that promote proper spinal alignment. The mattress evenly distributes body weight to reduce pressure points on joints, offering long-lasting comfort throughout the night. The edge support is particularly valuable for heavier individuals who need beds with strong support stability when sitting or sleeping near the edge of their bed frame.
Should You Buy Hush Graph-Iced Cooling Mattress?
The Hush Graph-Iced Mattress is the ultimate investment in your sleep if you’re looking for a medium firm mattress that combines advanced breathability, superior cooling features, and zero motion transfer. Its innovative foam layers — from graphite infused memory foam and copper infused memory foam to the body ventilated transition layer and foam encased pocket coils — work together to keep you cool, supported, and undisturbed throughout the night.
Whether you’re a dedicated hot sleeper, a back and stomach sleepers type who needs consistent spinal alignment, or a combination sleeper seeking responsive pressure relief, this hush mattress is your perfect mattress. With its blend of luxury and practicality, the Hush Graph-Iced is your key to waking up refreshed, revitalized, and ready to take on the day.
Compared with other mattresses on the market — such as the DreamCloud Original, Nectar Luxe Hybrid, and Logan & Cove Pinnacle Hybrid — that claim cooling features but fail to deliver, the Hush Graph-Iced Mattress stands apart, providing outstanding value. It is also worth noting that Hush’s parent company is the same Canadian brand behind the beloved Hush Blankets and Ontario Hush Blankets weighted blanket range, which speaks to their deep expertise in sleep comfort. The hush blankets weighted blanket lineup has earned a loyal following, and the same philosophy of science-backed sleep comfort runs through every hush mattress.
For those exploring hush mattress alternatives, a snow mattress from Silk & Snow or another hybrid mattress in this price range may be worth comparing — but based on cooling features, motion isolation, and pressure relief, the Hush Graph-Iced is difficult to beat. You can purchase through Sleep Country or Sleep Country Canada directly at sleepcountry.ca, with the 100 night sleep trial and hush warranty cover offering complete peace of mind.
