Conclusion
Ecosa and Nest barely share anything in common. Nest is an older brand with 5 mattresses featuring a combination of hybrids, all-natural, all-latex and a flippable mattress while Ecosa sells just one.
When it comes to offerings, Nest does pretty well with its variety of options and on comfort, Nest featured an Energex cooling foam amongst other layers rich in features. On support, the coils of its hybrids and base layers provides the needed foundation for a good sleep.
However, Ecosa beats it to the game of comfort starting from its waterproof inner cover that features the Tencel Technology which makes it sheer breathable and then it went ahead with its exclusive Eco-Tex memory foam that offers better comfort in plush luxury and super coolness with its pin core holes for air flow.
Ecosa does better with support which is offered by it’s ergonomic support layer designed to alleviate back pains. Ecosa is conscious of the fact that 1 in 3 Americans suffer from back pain.
