| Firmness info | The GhostBed Flex is a 5.5 to 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale (10 = too hard, 0 = too soft). The feel is slightly softer than the GhostBed. | 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. |

| Comfort | Our 7-layer hybrid mattress fuses the springy support of individually-wrapped coils with the plush comfort of gel memory foam. Experience out-of-this-world comfort, with the best of both worlds. Two one inch layers of special gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam. | 1. More Graphite 30% extra graphite maximizes cooling, sweeping 50% more heat away from the body. 2. Higher Quality Gel Upgraded Ceramic Gel absorbs 5 times more heat than conventional blue-gel products. 3. Open Cell Technology Our open-cell foam technology is designed to allow air to flow freely through the mattress, increasing breathability. 1. Comfy Top Layer We optimized the top layer of Tuft & Needle Adaptiveยฎ Foam to be a progressive combination of comfy and pressure relieving. 2. Cozy Cover A new thick, knit cover adds durability and coziness. 3. Pressure Relief Our progressive support and super comfortable top layers are designed to remove pressure points and bring relief. |
| Support | The core of the GhostBed Flex features the patented Ghost Flex innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edgeย Support design. Individual 8.5" coils create the weightless feeling you love, while wrapping them individually creates minimal motion transfer. Plus, two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easy to sit comfortably without slipping off. One inch of Ghost Flex Soft Transition Foam offers pure pressure relief. This layer of soft transition foam contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn. Individual coils offer the responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses, without the worry of wearing out after just a few months. Additionally, the coils near the edge of GhostBed Flex are specially reinforced for better support - so you can sit on the edge of your bed without sliding off. | The three layers in the Mintยฎ Mattress work together to provide remarkable support that you'll find comfortable immediately as well as throughout the night. We increased the softness of the top layer for better pressure relief, increased the firmness of the bottom support layer (for edge support), and added a middle transitional layer to keep you from "bottoming" out. 1. Progressive Support Ordering our layers in a gradual firmness combines comfort and support. The more you push, the more it pushes back to meet you. 2. More Gel Beads 30% more gel beads in our second layer add cushion-like support. 3. More Edge Support Our improved, firmer base layer adds comfortable edge support. |

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?
