The Nolah Air Foam Mattress
After testing hundreds of foam formulations and mattress constructions, Nolah created its flagship Air Foam mattress. This marvelous mattress is 100 percent temperature neutral and reportedly sleeps cooler than any other memory foam mattress on the market, with or without cooling gel. Performance tests also showed four times less peak pressure on the sleeper’s hip and back areas, as compared with traditional memory foam mattresses. Also cause-conscious, for every mattress sold, Nolah will adopt an endangered American wildlife through its wildlife conservation partner, Defenders of Wildlife. Customers can choose from more than 20 endangered animals like bald eagles, snowy owls and dolphins and are then sent an official wildlife adoption certificate as proof that their contribution helped protect American wildlife. $519, nolahmattress.com.

‘Healthy’ Headphones by Puro Sound Labs
How loud is too loud? Did you know that one in five teenagers and adults suffer from some type of hearing loss? Sound is measured in decibels, andat 85 dB and above, long or repeated exposure can cause hearing loss, which is 100 percent preventable! Because people are being exposed at a younger age with the increased use of electronics, noise-induced hearing loss has reportedly increased 31 percent since the ’90s. Puro’s BT2200 headphones have a unique approach to safe listening. First, block out 82 percent of the background noise (comparable to some of best active noise-cancelling headphones on the market). Second, limit volume to 85 dB. This is the maximum safe listening level as recommended by audiologists. And third, offer studio-grade audio quality with Puro’s patent-pending Balanced Response curve. $99-$109.99, purosound.com.
