Firmness Info

A firmer and supportive feel.

We make one model of mattress that is designed to be universally comfortable and medium firm, in order to benefit all different types of sleepers regardless of factors such as age, height, weight, or the way you sleep. We like to describe it as firm enough to be supportive, yet soft enough to be comfortable!
We've designed our foam to work with those who like soft mattresses as well as those who like firm, so we encourage everyone to give us a try regardless of your usual preference. If you're not 100% satisfied, you can return it for a full refund.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

A 3-layer construction:

  • 3" 3lb Density CoolRest® Memory Foam Infused with Liquid Gel
  • 2" Pluralux Foam
  • 7" 2lb Density Sure Align Support Foam
  • Smooth Knit Cover.

Two-layer blended foam designed by and proprietary to Tuft & Needle:

  • The comfort foam layer is 3" of a very high-density foam that we created to achieve our universally comfortable, cool and responsive properties. The density is about 2.8 lbs/cubic ft.
  • The support foam layer is 7" of a high-density poly-foam. The density is about 1.8 lbs/cubic ft.

Comfort Info

3 lb density memory foam rebounds (takes it shape) quicker making it easier to change positions.
The TENCEL® cover is a performance fabric like no other, absorbing moisture completely and naturally, creating a cooler and more comfortable sleep. With more breathability than cotton, and a softer hand than silk, TENCEL® can be found anywhere from athletic wear to luxurious bedding. Nothing is dreamier than going to sleep on a bed made with TENCEL® fibers.

Our foam works in three ways to draw heat from your body and disperse it out of the mattress.
Heat Wicking
Heat is drawn into the mattress where gel and graphite work together to disperse heat outward and away from your body.
Breathable
With the help of our fabric, air flows through the foam cells to boost the speed of heat transfer through the mattress.
No More Quicksand
Our support layer helps hold you closer to the surface to avoid the oven effect caused by sinking in too deeply.

Support Info

Our CoolRest™ gel advanced memory foam quickly conforms to your body for pressure relief and support without letting you sink too far into the mattress.

Designed to be one type of comfort, we are continuously tweaking the mattress to be universally comfortable for everyone. Our foam supports the natural posture of your spine, relieves back, shoulder, and neck pain and naturally breathes so you don't sleep hot.

Comfort Specs

Open cell memory foam increases air flow, contributing to a cooler sleep.
Sure Align foam works in tandem with CoolRest® Gel memory foam and provides perfect support for long lasting comfort.

Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam
We've engineered a new foam based purely on customer feedback, unparalleled in comfort and support. It's not memory foam or latex. It's Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam.

Support Specs

CoolRest® Gel memory foam perfectly contours to your body providing improved pressure relief to reduce tossing & turning.
Sure Align foam designed to support & correctly align your spine so you can sleep better.

Supportive Base Layer
Our custom Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam is paired with a high-quality support layer that forms the perfect foundation for our mattress.
Our foam is ideal for sleepers of any size or weight - and this is what makes it unique. The more pressure you put on it, the more it reacts to support you.

Fabric Specs

The TENCEL® cover offers unique moisture management properties - absorbs 50% more moisture than cotton, making it a highly effective performance fabric. Rapid absorption of moisture proves most effective in inhibiting bacterial growth naturally, without adding any chemicals.

Our plush Tuft & Needle Original Mattress cover is made with a blend of micro polyamide and polyester. It has a lofty, soft feel which is very pleasant to the touch. Micro Polyamide is commonly used in clothing for men, women, and children as an alternative to cotton that dries 6-8 times faster, helping you sleep cooler, longer. With durability in mind, we've designed a fabric that will last. Our mattress cover fabric is pilling-and tearing-resistant. We ask that customers do not remove our cover at any time, as the cover is not designed to be removed for any reason. The zipper on the bottom of the mattress is for assembly only.
Add antimicrobial protection by HeiQ for an additional $50.
