Firmness Info
The Tuft & Needle Original mattress is medium-firm in feel. It was designed to be universally comfortable and moderately firm, in order to benefit all different types of sleepers regardless of factors such as age, height, weight, or the way you sleep. If the mattress isn't meeting your expectations, simply reach out to Tuft & Needle to initiate a hassle-free return.
The 2-inch Purple Grid™ layer is ideal for back sleepers and those who prefer a slightly firmer feel to their mattress. This is the firmest of the Purple mattresses.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
The Tuft & Needle Original is a 2-layer mattress:
  • 3" T&N Adaptive foam
  • 6.5" polyurethane base foam.
The Purple Hybrid is made with ultra-high-quality materials engineered for the perfect synergy of durability, luxury, and No Pressure Support:
  • 2" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Puple Grid™. Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • 1" High-density cushioning foam help the transition between layers for optimal comfort
  • 7.5" Responsive Support Coils.
Comfort Info
The heat-wicking graphite and cooling gel in the T&N Adaptive® foam work together to help keep you cool while you sleep. This mattress is designed to pull your body heat away while remaining cozy and comfy.
The Purple Grid™ has thousands of open air channels that feel cool as you lie doown and neutralize your body heat throughout the night so you sleep comfortably all night long.
Support Info
T&N Adaptive® foam, which is unique to Tuft & Needle, provides great pressure relief and support and is comfortable for all sleep styles.
The hyper-elastic polymer gel Grid immediately flexes to support your position and springs back into place as you readjust or move.
The Purple Grid™ is designed to dynamically flex under pressure so it cradles pressure points like your hips and shoulders while still supporting the rest of your body.
A border using high density foam creates reinforced edge support.
Comfort Specs
The addition of heat-absorbing graphite is designed to conduct heat through the bed, away from you.
Cooling gel beads help wick away heat. When you lay down, the cooling beads create additional support for optimal comfort.
Long-lasting, open-cell foam creates a breathable foundation.
Air circulates more easily through the interior coils, which perfectly complement the Grid's built-in air channels and temperature-neutral gel material.
Support Specs
T&N Adaptive® Foam was invented by T&N alongside top American chemists, this foam is durable, breathable, and the perfect balance of flexible support. Engineered based on customer feedback, it provides pressure relief where you need it most.
Responsive Support Coils
Individually wrapped stainless steel coils pair with the Grid™ to offer dynamic pressure relief and support. Each coil is wrapped in responsibly sourced premium noise-reducing fabric.
The Purple Grid™ is a flexible gel material that instantly adapts to your body and sleep position, providing soft support where you want it and firm support where you need it. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.
Fabric Specs
The Tuft & Needle mattress cover is made with a blend of micro polyamide and polyester. It has a soft and plush feel. Micro polyamide is breathable and durable. It keeps you cool and dries up to 8 times faster than cotton. The mattress cover is resistant to pilling and tearing. The Original mattress cover is not waterproof or removable/washable, so if there are any concerns, we'd recommend using a mattress protector.
StretchMax Cover
Boasting even more stretch, the soft top material allows you to feel the full benefits of the Purple Grid, while ultra- breathable woven side panels encourage airflow.
