Abstract: A mattress includes a foam layer positioned over a platform including a bladder having top and bottom surface joined by threads such that upon inflation the platform stiffens due to strain locking. The foam layer may include an upper layer and a lower layer that is firmer than the upper layer. The foam layer may include a polyurethane foam, such as memory foam. Zipper portions on the edges of the platform may secure to zipper portions on edges of the foam layer. Feet removably mount to a lower surface of the platform, which may include protrusions or straps for securing to the feet. The platform layer may be deflated and rolled with the foam layer for transport and storage.
