Firmness Info

With its unique 2-in-1 design, the Latex for Less Latex Mattress has both a medium side and a firm side, making it the perfect mattress for every body.

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

By using two layers of our all-natural, single-origin latex with different firmness levels, we've created a reversible mattress that caters to the desired comfort of every sleeper. A four layer construction:

  • GOTS Certified Ultra-Soft Organic Cotton Cover
  • 0.5" 100% Natural Wool Fire Barrier
  • 2" Medium-feel Natural Talalay Latex (Density: N2)
  • 6" Firm-feel Natural Dunlop Latex (Density: 85)
  • 0.5" 100% Natural Wool Fire Barrier.

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

Our California wool is all-natural and breathes better than synthetic substitutes. It helps regulate your body temperature throughout the night and provides a natural flame-resistant fire barrier without synthetic chemicals.

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

All natural latex mattresses also contain natural ingredients that are hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, and have a springiness and pressure-relieving properties that neither synthetic latex nor memory foam can match.

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

Our 100% all-natural latex mattress is a pure, botanical product that is sustainably harvested from the Hevea Brasiliensis tree. It contains no harsh chemicals and provides a buoyant, cloud-like sensation for the ultimate sleep experience.

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

The 100% natural dunlop latex molds to your body for unbeatable comfort. For a more responsive feel, the 100% natural talalay latex that has a little more give.

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

When it comes to superior softness, our 100% organic cotton cover outperforms conventionally farmed cotton every time. We only use the finest organic cotton for our cover, because who wants to sleep with a bunch of agrochemicals? The cotton is stretched (not woven) to provide the softest, most welcoming sleep surface imaginable.

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.
