  • 3" T&N Adaptive foam
  • 6.5" polyurethane base foam.
Comfort Info
The Mint has an extra layer of T&N Adaptive® foam for added comfort (when compared to the Original). Infused with cooling ceramic gel and 30% more heat-conducting graphite than our T&N Original Mattress, the Mint offers optimal sleeping temperature throughout the night.
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.
Support Info
Reinforced edges provide support for edge-of-bed sleepers and make it easier to get in and out of bed without disturbing your partner.
T&N Adaptive® foam, which is unique to Tuft & Needle, provides great pressure relief and support and is comfortable for all sleep styles.

Long-lasting, open-cell foam creates a breathable foundation.
Support Specs
The top layer of the Mint is softer than that of the T&N Original, but with a firmer bottom layer for added edge support. This added third layer, the Mint layer, is designed to reduce motion transfer and provide additional pressure relief and softness. The Mint also has a middle transitional layer to keep you from "bottoming out".
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.
Fabric Specs
Plush-Knit Fabric
A thick, cozy knit cover that remains breathable and includes HeiQ NPJ03 to protect your mattress from odour-causing bacteria that can affect its lifespan.
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.
