The first is a dedicated 0.75\" zoned lumbar support layer between the memory foam and the coil core, a component built to firm up under the lower back and hold the spine in line. The second is density: the copper memory foam moves from 4 lb to a 5 lb HD 5.0, which contours further into the shoulder and hip before it bottoms out and carries more heat with it as it goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n          \u003cp\u003eMaking room for those changes takes height. The Elite stands 15.5\" on ten layers, and the extra load of that comfort stack sits on up to 900 Ascension Max individually encased coils, the ultra-durable step in Brooklyn Bedding's coil range. The cooling architecture carries over unchanged from the standard ThermoBalance: ThermoCool cover, ThermoPhase phase-change foam, copper-infused memory foam and the 360° airflow design. Soft, Medium and Firm are picked at purchase, and Brooklyn Bedding builds the whole thing in its own Arizona factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n          \u003cdiv class=\"spec-banner\"\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card\"\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__label\"\u003eProfile\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__value\"\u003e15.5\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__sub\"\u003eTen layers of construction\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card\"\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__label\"\u003eLumbar layer\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__value\"\u003e0.75\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__sub\"\u003eZoned support foam, Elite only\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card\"\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__label\"\u003eMemory foam\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__value\"\u003eHD 5.0\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__sub\"\u003e5 lb copper-infused, up from 4 lb\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card\"\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__label\"\u003eCoil unit\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__value\"\u003eAscension Max\u003c\/div\u003e\n              \u003cdiv class=\"spec-card__sub\"\u003eUp to 900 encased coils, 8\" core\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003c\/div\u003e\n          \u003c\/div\u003e\n          \u003cdiv class=\"value-bar\"\u003e\n            \u003cspan class=\"value-bar__item\"\u003eZoned lumbar support layer\u003c\/span\u003e\n            \u003cspan class=\"value-bar__item\"\u003eUltra-durable coil system\u003c\/span\u003e\n            \u003cspan class=\"value-bar__item\"\u003eGREENGUARD Gold \u0026amp; CertiPUR-US\u003c\/span\u003e\n            \u003cspan class=\"value-bar__item\"\u003eLimited lifetime warranty\u003c\/span\u003e\n          \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"overview__image\"\u003e\n          \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/brooklynbedding.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/thermobalance-carousel-texture_c8b0412c-f145-4489-8e82-4e934118fca4.jpg?format=webp\u0026amp;quality=70\u0026amp;v=1771969298\u0026amp;width=1200\" alt=\"Close-up of the quilted ThermoBalance Elite surface with the ThermoCool and ThermoPhase badge on the fabric\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" loading=\"eager\"\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- ============ TECH CARDS ============ --\u003e\n  \u003csection class=\"section--dark\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"section__eyebrow\"\u003eThe Elite Upgrades\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch2 class=\"section__title\"\u003eWhere the extra 1.5 inches goes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"section__lead\"\u003eThe Elite spends its added height on support and density.
