HIBER vs Endy Petite: Which Canadian Kids Mattress Is Best for Your Family?

When it comes to choosing the right mattress for your kids, safety, comfort, and values matter just as much as price. Recently, Endy launched its 7-inch Petite mattress, landing right between Haven Sleep Co.’s HIBER 6” and 8” models. At first glance, the two mattresses seem similar, but the details reveal very different approaches to how kids should sleep. Let’s break it down.

1. Covers: Polyester vs Bamboo + Tencel

Endy’s Petite mattress uses a 100% polyester knit cover. It’s lightweight and easy to zip off, which is handy for cleaning up spills or messes. Haven’s HIBER, by contrast, features a natural bamboo and Tencel blend. Parents love it for its softness, breathability, and eco-friendly profile. The HiberNate bundle includes a free mattress protector so the mattress requires less cleaning and can be spot cleaned it soiled. If your family values natural fibres and a cooler night’s sleep, HIBER clearly has the edge.

2. Foams: Petroleum vs Soy NaturFoam

Inside the Endy is straightforward polyurethane foam—petroleum-based and widely used in mass-market mattresses. Haven differentiates itself with NaturFoam, which blends high-quality foams with soy-based content. This renewable component makes HIBER a better choice for families who prioritize eco-friendly and vegan materials.

3. Height: One Middle Option vs Flexibility

Endy lands at a single 7-inch height. Haven offers flexibility:

6-inch profile: Safer for bunk beds and top bunks with railings, reducing fall risks.
8-inch profile: Adds a plush comfort layer, perfect for older kids, teens, or lower bunks.

With HIBER, parents can choose based on age and safety needs rather than settling for “one size fits all.”

4. Comfort: One Feel vs Options

Endy takes the “simplify” approach: a single medium feel for all sleepers. Haven recognizes that kids—and parents—may prefer different comfort levels. The HIBER 6” leans toward medium-firm support, while the 8” version adds a plusher feel. That choice makes HIBER more adaptable to different sleep styles and ages.

5. Manufacturing: Hand-Sewn vs Zipper-Assembled

Endy assembles mattresses in Canada, but most materials are sourced offshore. Their design allows for quick zip assembly without sewing. Haven, on the other hand, hand-sews each mattress in Mississauga and Calgary. This made-to-order approach takes a little longer to ship, but ensures craftsmanship and allows for custom lengths and widths—a rare option in the bed-in-a-box category.

6. Delivery: Speed vs Fresh-to-Order

Because Endy warehouses inventory in major cities, customers often receive mattresses within a day or two. Haven makes each mattress fresh, so delivery takes longer. The trade-off? HIBER arrives freshly made rather than sitting in a warehouse, and you can order unique sizes not available from mass-produced competitors.

7. Ownership: Family Business vs Corporate Backing

Haven Sleep Co. is proudly family-owned and operated in Canada, with deep roots in supporting Canadian communities and eco-friendly manufacturing. Endy, while marketed as Canadian, is owned by Sleep Country and backed by a venture firm. For families who prefer to support independent, values-driven businesses, Haven’s ownership story matters.

Final Verdict

If you want speed, simplicity, and a one-size-fits-all mattress, Endy Petite checks the box. But if you value eco-friendly materials, customizable comfort, and Canadian craftsmanship, Haven’s HIBER gives you more options and a story you can feel good about.

At the end of the day, it comes down to this:
