As Purple is the best of all premium mattresses, it fairs better than every other mattress on any given parameter.

Whereas, Tuft and Needle is the most affordable mattress in premium mattresses segment and costs half the price of Purple mattress.

Why Purple?

The topmost smart-grid layer is innovative and not to be seen in any other mattress

  • It perfectly absorbs pressure

  • Significantly reduces motion isolation (collapses only in areas where pressure is applied) and

  • Keeps the sleeping surface cool by effectively dissipating heat

Why Tuft and Needle?

Proprietary foam, which is a mix of both latex and visco-elastic foams, is the real game changer for Tuft and Needle

  • Simple two layer construction

  • Budget friendly in premium mattresses segment

Why Layla?

Mattressess come with fixed firmness level. They can either be firm, medium firm/medim plush or soft. But none of them offer dual firmness levels.

But Layla mattress is an exception as it comes with two different firmness levels. Yes, Layla is a flippable mattress that is medium plush on one side while the other side is medium firm.

Another advantage with Layla mattresss is the infusion of copper into the top layer. Copper infused mattesses are relatively more cooler than regular cooling gel infused mattresses.

Additionally, Layla comes with 120 night trial and lifetime warranty.
