Kin By Tuft & Needle Firm 8" Adaptive Foam Mattress

I bought a Nod by Tuft & Needle from Amazon 5 years ago. It's by far the best mattress I've ever had. It's memory foam but it's not super squishy. It's medium soft. Movement doesn't transfer. I'm a side sleeper, sometimes stomach and an ex bought one because mine was so comfortable. ETA it doesn't trap heat but it's an online order so you can't test it. It's still going strong.

Thank you so much for posting this. I have sciatica issue and currently sleep on a memory foam mattress from turf and needle. I went on vacation to italy and the bed was a simmons cares mattress. My back stopped hurting and actually did not hurt for the first 5 days after I returned home. Now I have been home for 2 weeks and my back is in so much pain. It never dawned on me that the bed could be causing my back pain. The bed is manufactured in italy but I hope that there is a similar one available in the US. Any suggestions for a similar mattress?

We recently got rid of a 10 year old Tuft and Needle memory foam mattress, and went with a full latex mattress. Now that we’re past the adjustment phase, I don’t think we’ll ever be without latex. We love it.

We’ve had a king size Leesa (Classic, I think) for seven years and it’s maybe the best mattress I’ve ever had. I think we paid $1200. We also have a king Tuft and Needle from Amazon for about $600. It’s been good, albeit on the firm side so we put a 2” gel pad and it’s really nice. We have had mattresses from Puffy (not bad) and IKEA (way too firm). All of these are bed-in-a-box type mattresses.

I second Tuft & Needle. Although a lot of the cost of the mattresses you buy is for the cover. The next time I need a mattress, I think I would look for just foam with the right density (uncovered), and then find a cover for it myself.

Get a solid wood or steel platform frame and spend your money on a good midrange mattress (Costco, Sleep On Latex, Purple, Casper, Tuft & Needle) and a latex mattress topper if needed. I would estimate $200 frame, $500-$1000 mattress, $150 topper.

tuft and needle is fine for the price but nothing special
