Tuft & Needle Mattress Review 2022

Tuft & Needle Mattress Review 2022: Ranked #1 for easy to maintain and in the top 3 for customer service. (Click here to see all the ANS Best Mattress Award Winners) 

The best selling point for the Tuft & Needle (T&N) Mattress is its super strong value! Though priced lower than most other on-line options, the Tuft & Needle Mattress is thoughtfully crafted with ideal support, comfort, pressure relief, and spinal alignment. As one of the more popular internet mattresses, with over one million people choosing Tuft & Needle every night, it offers a medium-firm feel that works well for all sorts of sleepers. With its cooling gel, graphite, breathable cover, and two air-circulating barriers, the T&N mattress is designed to keep you cool. 

The T&N Mattress is also super comfortable! The luxurious, plush cover and pressure relieving Adaptive Foam, give the Tuft & Needle Mattress its fantastic comfort. The cover is pleasant to the touch and has a luxurious, lofty, cool, plush feel that is made with polyester and Micro Polyamide. Micro Polyamide is a fabric that dries 6-8 times faster than cotton and is durable and long-lasting. The T&N Adaptive® foam makes up the top, comfort layer and gives the bed its universally comfortable, cool and responsive properties. It also provides great pressure relief and is not too soft. A sleeper will not feel caught in the mattress, but rather above it. Still the mattress conforms well to your body, no matter what type of sleeper you are. Using customer’s feedback, the Company engineered this new foam that has the benefits of memory foam and latex, but not their drawbacks.

Another strong point T&N has is their great reputation. The Company has high customer satisfaction and is becoming known for having a solid mattress at a great price point. Other areas where T&N did well include their customer service and having a mattress that is easy to move. Other areas where the mattress ranked high include in the essential areas of having a good warranty and trial period. T&N also did fine with all types of sleepers, whether side, stomach or back and with limited off-gassing and being socially good.

Tuft & Needle Mattress Review 2022

Snippet:

Tuft & Needle, a Phoenix-based mattress company, is leading the revolution against mattress markups, poor customer service, and inferior products by creating exceptional, honestly-priced products, and redefining the purchasing experience.

Snapshot:

When You’re Comfortable, You Sleep—It’s That Simple. We built our mattress with only the features people care about. 

Pressure Relief – We created our T&N Adaptive® foam to feel comfortable and provide great pressure relief without feeling too soft or like Quicksand. 

Support – Without support, a mattress may only be comfortable for a few hours. Our 7-inch support layer provides the ideal base for a full night’s sleep. 

Cool Sleeping – In addition to the heat wicking graphite and cooling gel in our T&N Adaptive® foam, our cover is extremely breathable to keep you cool.

Soft Without The Sink:

The Tuft & Needle Mattress is soft and comfy while still being bouncy and supportive. 

T&N ADAPTIVE® FOAM -We’ve engineered a new foam based purely 
on customer feedback. It captures the best benefits of memory foam and latex while leaving their negative attributes behind.

IDEAL SUPPORT – Our foam is ideal for sleepers of any size or weight — and this is what makes it special. The more pressure you put on it, the more 
it reacts to support you.

SUPPORTIVE BASE LAYER – Our custom T&N Adaptive® Foam is paired with a high quality support layer that forms
 the perfect foundation for our mattress.

Top 20 ConsiderationsRatingDetail
Essentials:
1Good Value?94.04%Super strong value! Though priced lower than most other on-line options, the Tuft & Needle Mattress is thoughtfully crafted with ideal support, comfort, pressure relief, and spinal alignment. As one of the more popular internet mattresses, with over one million people choosing Tuft & Needle every night, it offers a medium-firm feel that works well for all sorts of sleepers. With its cooling gel, graphite, breathable cover, and two air-circulating barriers, the T&N mattress is designed to keep you cool. It’s proprietary, one of a kind T&N Adaptive® Foam, in addition to keeping away the heat, delivers great comfort at an almost unbeatable price.
2Comfortable?91.72%Outstandingly comfortable! The Tuft & Needle Mattress is not only low priced, it is very comfortable and cool, offering great support and an excellent, adaptive feel. The luxurious, plush cover and pressure relieving Adaptive Foam, give the Tuft & Needle Mattress its fantastic comfort. The cover is pleasant to the touch and has a luxurious, lofty, cool, plush feel that is made with polyester and Micro Polyamide. Micro Polyamide is a fabric that dries 6-8 times faster than cotton and is durable and long-lasting. The T&N Adaptive® foam makes up the top, comfort layer and gives the bed its universally comfortable, cool and responsive properties. It also provides great pressure relief, and a medium firm feel that is not too soft. A sleeper will not feel caught in the mattress, but rather above it. Still the mattress conforms well to your body, no matter what type of sleeper you are.
3Supportive?92.22%The superb combination of Adaptive® Foam on top and Support Foam on the bottom, gives the Tuft & Needle mattress great overall structure. The top layer of Adaptive® Foam, a Tuft & Needle proprietary foam layer, gives support to the sleeper while conforming to his or her body. The Supportive Base Layer, complements the top layer well, providing the needed, sturdy overall foundation. Together, the two layers work well to give the mattress a medium firm, universal feel with great support for pretty much everyone. As the sleeper applies more pressure, the foam provides more resistance, and the spine continues to stay straight. Thus, this mattress is designed to support all kinds of sleepers – side, back, or stomach and all sizes – from the small to the large.
4Durable / Quality Built?91.70%
Excellent Quality! Many features of the Tuft & Needle mattress exude quality. Among these are the T&N Adaptive Foam, conducting graphite, cooling gel, and Micro Polyamide luxury cover. First, the Adaptive Foam is a new foam engineered based purely on customer feedback. It has the positive attributes of memory foam and latex while not the negatives. Included are benefits such as the feel of memory foam and the buoyancy of latex, but not the heat retention of memory foam and the price of latex. Second, the graphite is infused into the Adaptive Foam and acts as a conductor by pulling away heat from the sleeper. Next, the cooling gel which is also infused in the Adaptive Foam, absorbs latent heat and has it dissipated through the graphite. Lastly, the luxurious, cool, plush cover is made with polyester and Micro Polyamide, a fabric that dries 6-8 times faster than cotton. It is durable, long-lasting, and pilling and tearing resistant. In addition to these high quality features, the mattress’s quality can be seen in the many certifications it has. These certifications include the CertiPUR-US® for not having harmful chemicals, the GREENGUARD Gold for top air quality, the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® for top quality products, and the Parent Tested Parent Approved™ for being strongly recommended. Even though other comparable mattresses have more than two layers, Tuft & Needle believes in quality over quantity. They believe their two layers are the best, and refuse to add extra layers just so they can charge a higher price. As further evidence of this quality, Tuft & needle backs up their mattress with a ten year warranty. Moreover, they are constantly working to improve their products. Thus, their present mattress is even better than their mattress from a year ago.
5Sleep Cool?93.31%Wow! The Tuft & Needle mattress will keep you cool in so many ways. Many comparable mattresses only have one or two features to keep a sleeper from getting too warm, while Tuft & Needle has five. Starting from the top, the cover (1) is not only luxurious, lofty, and plush, it is extremely breathable. It is made with polyester and Micro Polyamide, a fabric that dries 6-8 times faster than cotton, helping you keep cooler. Below the cover and above the Adaptive foam are two thin barriers (2) that allow air to flow through the foam and circulate all around the sleeper. Next, the Adaptive foam (3) is a new kind of foam that has a lot of the feel of memory foam, but does not trap heat like memory foam often does. Lastly, infused within the Adaptive foam are two cooling features, graphite (4) and cooling gel (5). Graphite is a natural conductor that draws heat away from the body, while the cooling gel absorbs underlying heat and has it dissipated through the graphite.
6Warranty? 94.51%Tuft & Needle offers a 10 year full-replacement, non-prorated warranty. The warranty covers defects in the mattress, both manufacturing and workmanship. Body impressions greater than 3/4 of an inch are covered by the warranty. It also covers any material breakdown of the foam or defects with the cover.
7Return Policy?95.87%100 day, no-fee, no-risk, full-money-back trial. If returning mattress, no preparation is necessary. The buyer does not have to wait before returning the mattress.
Company:
8Customer Service?96.20%Excellent customer service.
9Good Reputation?96.81%The Tuft & Needle mattress is manufactured in the USA, has a BBB rating of A+, is highly rated by customers, and has been in business since 2012. The Company pioneered the disruption of the mattress industry as one of the first bed-in-a-box mattresses. Even though customers love these mattresses, Tuft & Needle has made many improvements to it. Per their website, 95% of their customers keep their mattress. The T&N Mattress has many certifications including CertiPUR-US® for not having harmful chemicals, the GREENGUARD Gold certification for top air quality, the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification for top quality products that come in close contact to the skin, and the Parent Tested Parent Approved™ certification for being strongly recommended. Tuft & Needle has more 5-star reviews than any other mattress based on Amazon.com reviews for mattresses $500+ as of 11/21/18.
10Socially Good?95.81%Per the T&N website, they believe everyone deserves a good education, a clean community and a great night’s sleep. Since the start of Tuft & Needle, they have intentionally made being socially good the heartbeat of their company. To date, Tuft & Needle has donated over $9M and 1,500 volunteer hours to 400+ schools and also homeless shelters. Products are CertiPUR-US and Green Guard certified. They have STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® and Parent Tested Parent Approved™ certifications. All foam is poured and cut in the USA.
Attributes:
11Motion Transfer / No Sinkage?92.68%The T&N mattress does pretty well at absorbing movements. While memory foam mattresses are known for isolating movements, the T&N mattress for the most part will keep one sleepers movements from disturbing the others. Regarding sinkage, moving on the mattress or getting up out of bed is not difficult. Moreover, T&N offers great weight distribution and was designed for the sleeper to stay on top of the mattress rather than sinking in. You will not feel trapped in a T&N.
12Edge Support?91.01%T&N mattresses provide uniform support from edge to edge. This means that for most people sitting or sleeping on the edge will not be a problem. Only larger people should take some caution when approaching the edges.
13Bouncy?93.70%Some bounce without the sinking quicksand feel.
14Noisy?96.17%As is common with most foam mattresses, Tuft & Needle is silent.
15Off-Gassing?93.80%Very little unpleasant initial odor. Any unboxing smell merely comes from new foam being packaged. It does not come from any harmful chemicals or gasses. T&N mattresses are GREENGUARD Gold certified, meaning they have gone through very stringent testing that ensures the mattresses do not contain any detrimental substances. If there are any initial odors, they will dissipate quickly. Airing out the mattress will speed up this process.
16Easy to Handle / Break In / Maintain?96.22%Even though you can sleep on your new mattress immediately after unboxing it, Tuft & Needle recommends letting it air out and expand for two to three hours. The break-in period is then two to three weeks for the mattress to fully expand, become even softer, reach optimal support, and provide full pressure relief. At 72 pounds for a queen, the lighter weight of the mattress makes it easier to move. One larger person can likely move it, but it may take two smaller to medium sized people. Like most mattresses, there are no side straps to aid in moving. Rotating the mattress from head to foot should be done a couple times per year. Flipping the mattress is unnecessary however, as the comfort layer should always be on top. T&N recommends that sleepers spot clean any stains on the cover with a mild detergent and water. Customers should dab the mattress when spot cleaning rather than rubbing it. Customers should also not remove the cover at any time. Even though there is a zipper, the cover is not designed for removal. A mattress protector is recommended to keep the cover clean and prevent any accidents or stains from ruining your mattress. T&N sells their own protector that is specifically designed for their mattress. It is lightweight, noiseless, and water resistant.
Sleeper Type:
17Good for Backs?95.36%Like memory foam, the Tuft & Needle mattress offers great distributed support and pressure-point relief that helps relieve back pain. The firmness level at about a 7 out of 10 is perfect for back sleepers. Back sleepers will also like how this mattress evenly distributes weight, has very little sinkage, and provides great support.
18Good for Side Sleep?94.77%Even though the Tuft & Needle mattress is firmer at about a 7 out of 10 than some side sleepers usually prefer it, this mattress seems to please all types of sleepers – back, stomach, and side. Side sleepers will like that this mattress offers great spine alignment, support, and pressure point relief.
19Good for Stomach Sleep?95.33%Stomach sleepers will enjoy the medium firm feel of the Tuft & Needle mattress. They will also love the consistent support, pressure point relief, and the limited sinkage.
20Good for Larger Sleepers?93.05%The firmness of the T&N mattress appeals to heavier and larger people. However, larger people might prefer a thicker mattress (greater than 10″), a heavier mattress (greater than 72 pounds), and higher foam density (greater than 2.9 lbs / per square foot).
