Firmness Info

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.

If you already know that you love a soft or firm mattress then follow your heart. However, if you are unsure you can follow this quick guide to make a selection:
1. Back Sleepers and Stomach Sleepers should choose the Firm Mattress
2. Side Sleepers and 'Free Style' Sleepers should choose the Soft Mattress
3. If either you or your partner is heavier than 220 lbs, the Firm Mattress may be the option for you.
4. If you are lighter than 130 lbs, the Soft Mattress may be the option for you.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

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.

Whether you prefer a firm or a softer experience, our hybrid mattresses play with varying layers of foam, natural latex and our pocket coil system.
Firm:

  • 1" Cooling Infinity Foam
  • 2" Responsive Natural Latex
  • 8" Edge-to-Edge Coil System
  • 1" High Density Support Foam
Soft:
  • 2" Cooling Infinity Foam
  • 1" Hybrid Transition Foam
  • 8" Edge-to-Edge Coil System
  • 1" High Density Support Foam.

Comfort Info

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.

With reduced motion transfer, you and your partner can experience an uninterrupted night's sleep for your perfect sleepy sanctuary.

Support Info

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.

The various blend of ingredients deliver the perfect amount of body contouring and pressure relief with extra soothing support. The Infinity Foam top layer is our unique material that prevents heat retention for a cooler night's sleep, and gives the perfect balance of support, contouring, and pressure relief in all the right places. This is our finishing touch to give you an unparalleled indulgent experience.

Comfort Specs

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.

Our unique foam construction provides contoured support & breathability for the coolest night's sleep.

Support Specs

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.

Our edge-to-edge pocket coil system was created to provide superior edge support. Each coil is individually wrapped so it can compress and expand independently, providing you with pressure relief where you need it most. The coils are positioned between layers of foam to allow you to feel like you're floating on air.

Fabric Specs

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.
