Firmness, bounce, and cooling features are a matter of personal preference and aren’t part of our rating system, so these scores are shown in grey.

Product Details
S&S Hybrid has a 12″ profile with two foam layers and one coil layer. This mattress has a medium level of firmness. It feels comfortable when you first lie down and has a subtle “hug,” while deeper pressure reveals the supportive pocketed coils underneath. It also offers a range of features for comfort, cooling, and support.
Priced at $900 for a queen size, S&S Hybrid costs about the same as other popular Canadian hybrid mattress brands. You also have the option to upgrade to the Plush version for an extra $550. That said, the S&S Hybrid mattress’s construction doesn’t include the advanced cooling features you’ll find in other hybrids like Logan & Cove Choice.
Ideal For: Back Sleepers, Side Sleepers

Delivery, Sleep Trial & Returns
Silk & Snow uses various courier services for mattress deliveries and offers free shipping to most Canadian customers (although remote areas may have additional fees). Shipping takes approximately 2–9 business days, depending on your location.
The company provides a 365-night sleep trial. This allows you to test the mattress at home before you commit to keeping it. If you return your Silk & Snow Hybrid during the sleep trial, the company offers free pickup and a refund. Silk & Snow also offers a 15-year warranty.
Silk & Snow Mattress Construction
S&S Hybrid contains 3 mattress layers that work together to provide a balance of comfort and support.
- Layer 1: The comfort layer is 1″ of quilted cooling gel foam and holofibre fill, adding a touch of softness for a plush and refreshing feel.
- Layer 2: The transition layer is 2″ of high-density cooling gel-infused memory foam. This helps shape the overall feel and firmness of the mattress while providing pressure-point relief.
- Layer 3: With 8″ of double-tempered pocketed spring coils, the support layer provides extra support under the hips and shoulders. The foundation also offers a bit of bounce while limiting motion transfer.
S&S Hybrid has a non-removable cover made from polyester and spandex. While the cover can’t be removed, its antimicrobial properties may help control bacteria and germs.

MattressReviews.ca commissions licensed third-party engineers and uses public data to rate mattresses on over 30 criteria.
This allows us to accurately rate and compare the performance of the mattresses reviewed on this website. Engineer independence and operating standards help ensure their results remain unbiased, valid, and reliable. Each mattress was evaluated using the same strict mattress testing methodology to protect the overall integrity of the results. The full report has been given the official stamp of approval from an APEGA-certified engineer operating under a strict ethical code of conduct.
Mattress testing conducted outside of this professional standard poses a greater risk of validity errors or reviewer bias.

5.3 /10
Firmness
In third-party engineer testing (commissioned by us), S&S Hybrid scored 5.3/10 for firmness. This places the mattress in the “medium” category for firmness.
S&S Hybrid has a subtle “hug” when you first lie down. This level of firmness can be comfortable for back and side sleepers. However, you might find it doesn’t offer enough support for your neck, back, and hips if you’re a stomach sleeper. You may find you need the extra support that comes with a medium-firm mattress like Logan & Cove Choice.

7.8 /10
Edge Support
S&S Hybrid features a thick foam encasement around the lower perimeter of the mattress. Given this reinforcement, the mattress receives an above-average score of 7.8/10 for edge support. This means you should experience little to no sinkage if you sit on or lie alongside the mattress edge.
8.0 /10
Motion Isolation
Hybrid mattresses don’t usually offer great motion isolation because of their inner coils. However, S&S Hybrid bucks this trend with a score of 8.0/10. If you share your bed with a partner, you can expect to feel little to no movement when they toss and turn in the night.
4.7 /10
Bounce
Coil-based mattresses tend to be bouncier and more responsive than all-foam and latex mattresses. S&S Hybrid scored a 4.7/10 for bounce, which is slightly below average for a hybrid mattress. This can help you get a restful sleep despite a restless partner, while still getting enough responsiveness to get out of bed easily.
However, if you’re looking for a mattress with lots of bounce for extra-easy movement, S&S Hybrid might not be right for you.

2.8 /10
Cooling Features
S&S Hybrid isn’t generally considered a cooling mattress, but it does have a few features to help regulate temperature. This mattress earns points for its:
- Temperature-balancing fabric in the top cover (only available in the Plush upgrade)
- Layer of gel-infused foam
- Layer of pocket coils, which provide some breathability
If you’re looking for a hybrid mattress with better cooling, consider Logan & Cove Choice instead. Like S&S Hybrid, Choice’s construction includes a layer of cooling gel foam and airflow-promoting pocket coils. However, Choice has additional features like a quilted top cover that contains breathable hollow fibre, gel-infused foam, and cooling nanofibres.

Company Background
Silk & Snow is a relatively small North American company specializing in bed and bath products for Canadian and American customers.
In 2017, the company ventured into the bed-in-a-box market after successfully completing a Kickstarter campaign. At that time, they introduced their initial memory foam mattress, the Original (later rebranded to the S&S Mattress). The company later expanded its product line to include two more mattresses and a line of bath products.
Silk & Snow is rated “A+” with the Better Business Bureau. However, as of this review’s publication, the company holds a customer rating of 2.42/5 stars based on 45 customer reviews. Complaints cover issues like low quality, discrepancies in shipping costs despite the website’s claim of free shipping, challenges in reaching customer service, and delayed order deliveries.
Silk & Snow’s Trustpilot rating is “Great”, but there are still a number of one-star reviews. Negative Silk and Snow reviews mention sagging, stitching coming apart, lengthy processes to honour warranties and returns, and poor post-purchase customer service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I clean the S&S Hybrid cover in the washing machine?
No. The top cover contains quilted foam and can’t be removed or machine washed. You’ll need to carefully spot-clean in case of any spills or messes. That said, the cover has built-in antimicrobial properties to help control the growth of germs and bacteria.
Where can I get a S&S Hybrid mattress?
This mattress is available on the Silk and Snow website and at EQ3. You might also find Silk and Snow mattresses on The Shopping Channel.
Where is the S&S Hybrid manufactured?
According to the Silk and Snow website, all their mattresses are made by manufacturing partners located in Canada.
Is S&S Hybrid eco-friendly?
Silk and Snow Hybrid isn’t made with exceptionally eco-friendly manufacturing practices. However, its foams are CertiPUR-US® registered and derived from natural seed-based oils like soybeans.
What S&S Hybrid mattress alternatives could I consider?
Looking for a Canadian-made, luxury hybrid mattress with a comparable size and price tag, along with a few extra features? We suggest Logan & Cove Choice.
Designed for diverse body types and sleep styles, Choice features 3 layers made from premium materials and a cutting-edge, three-zone coil system that includes micro-coils for added support. Your mattress purchase also comes with a free bedding bundle that includes a mattress protector, pillow(s), sheets, and pillow protector(s).
