Abstract: A mattress for a bedding unit. The mattress comprises a body having a first support surface and a second support surface. Each of the first support surface and the second support surface is configured to support a user thereon and each of the first and second support surfaces have a different level of firmness. At least one top portion is removably attachable to either of the first or second support surfaces of the body. The at least one top portion has a level of firmness less than the level of firmness of the first and second support surfaces such that when the top portion is attachable to either of the first or second support surface, the level of firmness of the first or second support surface is reduced. An overall level of firmness of the mattress can be altered by the user selecting either the first or second support surface alone or in combination with the at least one top portion to provide the overall level of firmness of the mattress that is acceptable to the user.
