Tuft & Needle vs Boring Mattress - The Clear Winner

I co-founded Tuft & Needle in 2012 and spent a decade learning what makes a great mattress. Boring is everything I've learned, built from the ground up.

    Our mattresses are designed to work with a variety of foundations, but for the best sleep experience, we generally recommend a solid, supportive base with slats no more than 5 inches apart. Here are a few options:

    • Platform Bed: A solid, flat surface with slats provides excellent support and doesn’t require a box spring.
    • Adjustable Base: Our mattresses are compatible with most adjustable bases, which can offer added comfort for those who prefer a customizable sleep position.
    • Box Spring: If you prefer a traditional box spring, especially for added height, just ensure it’s in good condition and offers stable support.

    If you have a specific frame or foundation in mind, feel free to reach out, and we’d be happy to help confirm it’s a great fit!

    No, our products do not contain fiberglass.

    Super comfortable and a great value

    I was looking to replace an original Tuft and Needle when I found this company, started by one of the Tuft and Needle founders. Tried a queen Boring mattress, loved it, and ended up buying a second. It's more comfortable, supportive, and breathable than my old T&N. To anyone looking to replace a T&N and avoid all of the sketchy mattress marketing hype: you've come to the right place.

    Finally, a comfortable mattress

    So I purchased this mattress after buying and returning two others. (One of them being a latex mattress which I really wanted to work). I am a 54 y.o. side sleeper and I sleep hot. I bought the boring AF with the topper thinking I could return the topper if I don’t need it. The mattress was more comfortable right from the start and got better over the next several nights. Even so, I wanted to try the topper and that combo was perfect for my sore joints. It doesn’t retain heat and is perfect! A true medium firmness I would say. Finally!

    Great mattress and exceptional service

    I purchased the mattress from Boring about a month ago and have been quite please with it! Comfortable and easy to set up. More importantly though, I thought the customer support from the company has been excellent. Any time that I had a question about the order, shipping, or set up process, the company is very prompt and helpful in their response. Would recommend!
