What is a cashmere mattress?
"Cashmere mattress" usually refers to a mattress that has cashmere wool incorporated into its comfort layers or cover—not one made entirely of cashmere. Monarch Rest’s Fuchsia collection is made up of cashmere mattresses.
Is the mattress made entirely of cashmere?
No. Cashmere is used in the quilted cover and/or comfort layer. The core underneath, which could be made of foam, latex, or coils, contains no cashmere. The Fuchsia mattress has a coil base and cashmere and wool comfort layer.
What does cashmere actually do for a mattress?
It adds a soft, silky feel to the surface and helps regulate temperature. Cashmere fibers trap warmth in cooler conditions while still allowing airflow, so the mattress stays comfortable from season to season.
Does cashmere affect how supportive a mattress is?
No, the cashmere is part of the comfort layer and affects feel and breathability, not the structural support, which comes from the layers below. Fuchsia has a solid foundation of encased coils.
Will the cashmere wear out or flatten over time?
Cashmere is a natural fiber that can compress and soften with years of use. This affects the surface plushness but not the mattress’s overall support.
Does cashmere make a mattress hot to sleep on?
Not typically. Cashmere is breathable and helps wick moisture, which is part of the reason it's used for temperature regulation rather than heat retention.
Does a cashmere mattress come with a warranty?
Monarch Rest’s cashmere mattress, Fuchsia, is backed by a 20-year warranty covering defects in workmanship or components, including impressions exceeding 1 inch. See the complete warranty for details.
Is the Fuchsia cashmere mattress a hybrid mattress?
Yes, the Fuchsia mattress is crafted with a foundation of encased coils and padded with Talalay latex, cashmere, and wool, making it a hybrid mattress.
What are encased coils? Why do hybrids use them?
Encased coils are individual springs in their own fabric pocket, which allows them to compress and expand independently, instead of as a unit. Hybrid mattress manufacturers use encased coils because they reduce motion transfer between sleepers.
Do hybrid mattresses use memory foam or latex?
Hybrid mattresses can use either, or sometimes a combination of both, in their comfort layer. Memory foam hybrids offer closer body contouring and a slower, more cushioned feel, while latex hybrids respond more quickly, sleep cooler, and tend to last longer. The Fuchsia collection contains both gel memory foam and natural Talalay latex in its comfort layer.
Do hybrid mattresses need to be rotated?
Yes, rotating a hybrid mattress 180 degrees every 3 to 6 months helps distribute wear evenly across both the coil base and the comfort layer, extending its lifespan. Most hybrids are one-sided and shouldn't be flipped, since the comfort layer is only on one side. The Fuchsia Duo, however, is double-sided and can be flipped, with a full comfort layer on both sides.
Do hybrid mattresses have good motion isolation?
Hybrid mattresses with encased coils typically offer good motion isolation, since each coil compresses individually and the foam comfort layer helps to absorb motion.
