Product Description

Fully Flippable Mattress

The Qualicum, formerly known as our "Model Eight" - is a fully reversible "flippable" hand tufted hybrid mattress. A 6" Spring unit wrapped in cotton felt, with 2" of 100% Natural Talalay Latex on each side and as always a layer of Organic Cotton ticking quilted through Joma Wool®.

Unsurpassed Longevity

The traditional way of manufacturing this model ensures unsurpassed longevity and comfort levels. This is truly two mattresses in one package. Model 8 is a rare example of when the B Side is just as good as the A Side.

Hand-Tufted

We start the build by encapsulating a 6′′ individual pocket coil spring in a thick layer of natural cotton felt.  Next we place 2 inches of 100% Natural Talalay Latex foam on each side followed by fastening our organic cotton and natural Joma Wool® quilt to it.

The next step for our Qualicum is tape edging. Then this mattress goes into our tufting press. This time intensive process ensures that all of the components will work together in perfect harmony for many years to come.

This mattress is also available with Dunlop GOLS Certified Organic latex rubber.

What is a tufted mattress?

Tufting is a traditional process in which a large needle is pushed through the mattress in a systematic pattern with a heavy duty thread and is tied off into rosettes or “tufts”. This process is useful to hold various components of a layered mattress together. It also provides a pillowy undulating surface which some sleepers prefer.

Can the Qualicum mattress be customized?

The Qualicum has 2 inches of natural latex on each side, the top, and the bottom, that can be customized. It’s a fully reversible mattress.

Does the Qualicum mattress ship for free across Canada?
