Why Scores Moved
| Category | Why | Receipt wanted |
|---|---|---|
| Support 3.7 / usable | Loaded height does the main work here: 4.2 in under 10 lb, then side/back angle. | Side 4.1 deg, back 2.7 deg; fixed loft risk noted. |
| Comfort 3.8 / usable | hybrid comfort starts with first squish. The 2 a.m. roll-over gets a vote too. | Night notes, pressure marks, cover wrinkles, and whether 50% memory foam and 50% polyester or recycled polyester depending on sku shifts. |
| Cooling 3.5 / usable | Material airflow plus heat rise. A cold cover earns points with the probe. | TRI 64.6, +7.5 F heat rise, 10 minute pad. |
