Firmness info

A medium-soft firmness offering support for any sleep position including back, side, and stomach sleepers.

Generally speaking, we describe both of our mattresses as medium-firm in feel. However, we also understand even that description can be subjective. Two people sleeping on the same mattress might have contrasting opinions - it could be too soft, too firm, or just right. That's why we offer our 100-night sleep trial to ensure every person has the opportunity to decide if the Tuft & Needle mattress is the right fit for them, and return it if it's not.

FAQs

Awara

What firmness level is Awara?

Awara classifies the Natural Hybrid as a 7 on a firmness scale of 1 to 10, indicating it's a medium-firm mattress. This level of firmness is typically suitable for back, stomach, and combination sleepers, but may be too firm for those who sleep on their side.

Is the Awara mattress really non toxic?

Awara has chosen to use a combination of natural latex and individually-wrapped pocket coils in their mattresses, avoiding the use of any poly foams or memory foams. This results in a mattress that provides luxurious support without the use of toxic materials.

Is Awara mattress really organic?

Yes, the Awara mattress is constructed with GOLS-certified Latex and GOTS-certified organic cotton. In addition, for every mattress sold, Awara, a ClimatePartner-certified company, plants 10 trees.

Tuft & Needle Mint

How soft is Tuft and Needle Mint?

The Tuft and Needle Mint mattress is slightly softer than the original, with a firmness level of medium to medium-soft, or a 4 out of 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).

Does Tuft and Needle Mint sleep hot?

The Tuft & Needle Mint is not cool to the touch, but it is very cooling for a foam mattress. It uses graphite and cooling gel beads to promote breathability, making it suitable for hot sleepers who prefer a gentle all-foam feel.

Is Tuft and Needle Mint good for stomach sleepers?

The Tuft & Needle Mint provides enough support to prevent most stomach sleepers' hips from sinking in excessively and causing strain on their spines. However, some stomach sleepers, especially those who weigh more or carry most of their weight near their midsections, may experience more significant sinkage.
