- Cross-cut foam surface – horizontal cross-cuts zone pressure across 5 therapeutic zones
- Sloped heel section – offloads pressure from vulnerable heels
- Multi-stretch cover – fluid resistant, low shear, vapor permeable; tolerates disinfectant cleaning
- Non-skid vinyl bottom – waterproof bottom cover keeps the mattress in place on the deck
- 350 lb capacity – HCPCS E0184
- 3 year foam and cover warranty
The Entry Point of the Gravity Line
The Gravity 6 is where Drive's long-term-care foam line starts: a latex-free therapeutic foam mattress whose top surface is cut in a horizontal cross-cut pattern, creating five therapeutic pressure zones that flex independently under the body. The heel section slopes away to offload the heels. The removable multi-stretch cover is fluid resistant, low shear, and vapor permeable, and it tolerates disinfectant cleaning; underneath, a non-skid waterproof vinyl bottom keeps the mattress planted on the deck. It is 36 x 80 x 6 inches, rated to 350 lb, and meets CFR 1632 and 1633 flammability standards.

Why Choose the Drive Gravity 6 Foam Mattress
Choose the Gravity 6 for straightforward long-term-care foam: zoned cross-cut redistribution, a sloped heel, and a disinfectant-tolerant cover at the line's entry price — and step up to the Gravity 7, 8, or 9 when you need more layers, capacity, or warranty.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the 5 zones do?
The cross-cut pattern divides the surface into five therapeutic zones that flex at different rates under the head, torso, seat, legs, and heels, spreading pressure instead of concentrating it.
How is the Gravity 6 different from the Gravity 7?
The Gravity 7 adds a layered build (3 full layers) with a die-cut top, a visco heel, more lengths and perimeter options, and a 7 year foam warranty. The Gravity 6 is the single-size entry model with a 3 year warranty.
Does the Gravity 6 need a pump or power?
No. It is a foam mattress with nothing to plug in, inflate, or maintain.
Will it stay in place on the deck?
Yes — the bottom cover is non-skid waterproof vinyl, made to grip the deck instead of sliding during repositioning and transfers.
How do I clean it?
The multi-stretch cover removes for cleaning, wipes down in place, and tolerates disinfectant cleaning (see the user manual for suggested disinfectants).
What size bed does it fit?
Any 36 x 80 in deck — the standard homecare and long-term-care size. Capacity is 350 lb.
What warranty does it carry?
Drive covers both the foam and the cover for 3 years under its limited warranty.
