U11 Solstice
U11 Solstice is the lower of the two
adjustable airbed models in the
Ultimate Series of the
2015 Collection by
Comfortaire. It is similar to the
Elite S in the
Elite Comfort Series of the
2013 Comfortaire Collection. Like the other
Ultimate Series model, the
U15 Harmony, this is a split-top mattress: one mattress with two head sections. On an
adjustable base these can be raised and lowered separately while a couple still shares the same
mattress. Though different in other features, this mattress is like the
Sleep Number model
X12 in having the split top.
The
U11 Solstice has dual air support. Each side is controlled separately for individualized comfort, as is the case with all
Comfortaire mattresses in two-sleeper sizes. The
Solstice uses the
Attune Design air support system with urethane film air chambers atop a high density
foam support core. This was developed by
Comfortaire from its
Original Air Technology.
The urethane air chambers are shorter (3½") and thinner-walled than the previous 6" high
cotton-latex version. They are also higher up in the mattress, closer to the sleepers, and extend the full width and length for
Edge-
to-
Edge Air Support with full adjustability.
The 2" base foam support core is made of highly resilient synthetic
latex. The purpose of this layer is to support the air chambers while serving as a shock absorber. This is also to help the air support unit to conform to the sleeper's body for pressure relief and proper spinal posturing. Since the support core is only 2" high, it does not require perimeter encasement.
At the top of the
Comfortaire U11 Solstice is the
cover made of
bamboo fibers, the same as used in
G13 Horizons and
G12 Sonata in the
Genesis Series. Bamboo fibers, with their mesh-like structure, wick up moisture and carry it away from the sleeping surface. This moisture evaporates to create a cooling effect (this is the principle used in swamp coolers).
The only thing between the
Attune Design air chambers and the cover is the 3¼"
Evellafoam comfort layer.
Evellafoam is a fusion of
memory foam and synthetic latex, combining benefits of both materials. It is scented with green tea extract for odor protection and freshness. Green tea extract is an antioxidant, inhibits microbes, and is hypoallergenic.
The preferred
foundation for the
U11 Soltice split-top air bed is an
adjustable bed, especially one with only the head adjustable, or a split-sized unit with synchronized foot sections.
Comfortaire sells the
Silhouette by
Leggett & Platt, which is available in split sizes.
The
Comfortaire U11 Solstice comes with a 25-year (4/25) limited warranty. The first four years are not prorated, and the remaining years are. It is anticipated that retailers will be carrying this model by the end of 2014.
