Tuft & Needle Original review

Tuft & Needle Original is the cheapest mattress in this list, at $559.20 for a queen in a 20% sitewide sale when we checked. It is a plain all-foam bed: a cooling cover over T&N Adaptive foam, which the company says combines the pressure relief of memory foam with better breathability, then Support Foam and a durable Base Foam for a 12-inch profile. Tuft & Needle says this is its firmest feel, so it suits back and stomach sleepers more than side sleepers. The foams are CertiPUR-US certified, the mattress is Greenguard Gold certified, and the company says it contains no fiberglass. The terms are standard rather than generous: a 100-night sleep trial, free returns and shipping and a 10-year limited warranty. Shoppers who can stretch to $699 get a 365-night trial and a Forever Warranty with the Nectar Classic, which is why the T&N Original ranks lower despite its price.
