Firmness Info

One perfect bed, no more morning blues. Purple gives the best of both firm and soft with our pressure-erasing Smart Comfort Grid™. Wake up on the right side the World's First No Pressure™ mattress.

Generally speaking, we describe both of our mattresses as medium-firm in feel. However, we also understand even that description can be subjective. Two people sleeping on the same mattress might have contrasting opinions - it could be too soft, too firm, or just right. That's why we offer our 100-night sleep trial to ensure every person has the opportunity to decide if the Tuft & Needle mattress is the right fit for them, and return it if it's not.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

Three layer construction:

  • Top Layer: 2" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Smart Comfort Grid™ Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • Middle Layer: 3.5" 1.8 lbs density polyurethane foam
  • Base Layer: 4" 2.0 lbs density polyurethane foam

Our Tuft & Needle Mattress is the original, universally comfortable mattress that changed an entire industry. Mint® is everything that makes the original great, with exciting new features:

  • 3" Tuft & Needle Adaptive® foam (3.5lb density) infused with ceramic gel
  • 2" Tuft & Needle Adaptive® foam (3.0lb density) infused with graphite
  • 6.5" High-density polyurethane foam foundation (1.8lb density)
  • Four sides of edge support (1.8lb density).

Comfort Info

Ventilation is the key to sleeping just right - not too hot, and not too cold. Purple achieves the ultimate sleep comfortability by combining a totally new material with a totally unique design. Purple remains temperature-neutral so you don't sleep hot and sweaty at night.

  1. More Graphite
    30% extra graphite maximizes cooling, sweeping 50% more heat away from the body.
    2. Higher Quality Gel
    Upgraded Ceramic Gel absorbs 5 times more heat than conventional blue-gel products.
    3. Open Cell Technology
    Our open-cell foam technology is designed to allow air to flow freely through the mattress, increasing breathability.
Support Info

A revolutionary mattress designed for just about everyone. It's designed to not only help you get better sleep, but to soothe joints, release pressure on the hips and shoulders, and support the neck and back. It's designed to make bedtime the highlight of your day!

The three layers in the Mint® Mattress work together to provide remarkable support that you'll find comfortable immediately as well as throughout the night. We increased the softness of the top layer for better pressure relief, increased the firmness of the bottom support layer (for edge support), and added a middle transitional layer to keep you from "bottoming" out.

Comfort Specs

Purple's column design allows air to flow freely, preventing moisture trapping, extending the life of the mattress, and providing cleaner, more comfortable sleep. Thanks to the free air flow design and patented polymer materials, Purple naturally sleeps much cooler than memory foam, latex, and other mattress technology.

  1. Comfy Top Layer
    We optimized the top layer of Tuft & Needle Adaptive® Foam to be a progressive combination of comfy and pressure relieving.
    2. Cozy Cover
    A new thick, knit cover adds durability and coziness.
    3. Pressure Relief
    Our progressive support and super comfortable top layers are designed to remove pressure points and bring relief.
Support Specs

The Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ Purple is a pressure-releasing material. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.

  1. Progressive Support
    Ordering our layers in a gradual firmness combines comfort and support. The more you push, the more it pushes back to meet you.
    2. More Gel Beads
    30% more gel beads in our second layer add cushion-like support.
    3. More Edge Support
    Our improved, firmer base layer adds comfortable edge support.
Fabric Specs

NEW SoftFlex Wave Knit: 29% Viscose, 67% Polyester, 4% Lycra (all +/- 5%). A custom, super-soft knit with tons of stretch so it can flex with both your movement and the Grid's. Its breathable material is also the perfect complement to the Grid's 1,800+ air channels.

Our ultra plush Mint® Mattress cover is made with polyester and viscose. It has a super soft, cozy touch and adds just a hint of cushion. Viscose is commonly known as rayon and is used in clothing. 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.
