Comfy Nights with Tuft & Needle

by Katie Wallace | Updated: November 25, 2017

It can be hard to find the perfect mattress; especially one that makes two people think that it’s perfect.ย  My husband Andy and I have been married for 9 years but that doesn’t mean we like everything the same โ€” although Andy did convert me over to dark chocolate and spicy salsa. If my husband likes soft and I like cushy support, our Tuft & Needle mattress comes pretty close to perfection; lofty support, not too cushy and not too firm. Tuft & Needle seems to have thought of everything. Plus this mattress comes in a box and ships through the mail with Free Shipping and a 100-Night Sleep Trial on all Tuft & Needle products.

This post is sponsored by Tuft & Needle. All opinions are our own.

Andy and I had the opportunity to attend the Tuft & Needle grand opening of the Belltown, Washington retail store. We saw these Tuft & Needle mattresses in person and even took home a complimentary T&N Queen size mattress, standard size pillow and sheet set. Tuft & Needle products offer an impressive first impression and once experienced, the Tuft & Needle set-up does not disappoint.

Why isย Tuft & Needle Different?

Tuft & Needle mattresses are made from high-grade adaptive foam that is the first of its kind. Tuft & Needle created their adaptive foam from scratch in partnership with some of the world’s leading foam scientists; testing, refining and perfecting it at the molecular level. Tuft & Needle engineered their mattress foam into a single material with multiple properties; reducing the need for extra layers and extra glue and allowing for more airflow and cooler sleeping.

Tuft & Needle mattresses and accessories can be purchased on Amazon. Even if you are buying from one of the 5 retail stores, you still purchase Tuft & Needle through Amazon Prime and the products ship to your home. This is convenient for you and efficient for the brand AND you can browse the 11,500+ Tuft & Needle mattress reviews (yep, you read that number right) on Amazon written by other customers. Who doesn’t love the convenience of Amazon Prime??

Once purchased, your mattress, pillows and bed sheets ship right to your door and can be unpacked and ready for slumber in no time. Tuft & Needle aimsย to make a comfortable night’s sleep affordable for all โ€” the Queen size mattress is priced at $575 + Free Shipping. Tuft & Needle also prides themselves on producing quality mattresses that are versatile enough for any sleeper in any position. You may have seen Tuft & Needle featured or mentioned on social media because they have a great online presence. Just take a quick look around and you’ll see just how many people truly love this mattress.

My Tuft & Needle Experience

As a regular side sleeper, the pillow thickness is perfect for me, yet comfortable any which way. The mattress is firm and gives just the right amount to create a comfy sleep space without feeling like you’re sinking. Our Queen size mattress arrived on our doorstep in a streamlined box. Once unrolled, the mattress expanded an impressive amount from its compact shipping size. We put our Tuft & Needle mattress in our RV motor home to replace our average travel mattress. Theย Tuft & Needle mattress fits perfectly in our RV thanks to its compact size and provides amazing restful nights while we are traveling and “glamping” with our young family.

Tuft & Needle hasย five brick and mortar stores but if you don’t live near one, you can easily do your research and order online. Tuft & Needle mattresses come in one style and five sizes; Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, and King. You no longer have to decide which kind of mattress to buy and whether you need to add a memory foam topper;ย  Tuft & Needle mattresses provide high quality comfort in an all-in-one design.

You can also try out aย Tuft & Needle mattress for 100 days risk free! If you don’t like your mattress even after ordering from Amazon Prime, you can still return under theย full refund guarantee with a 100 Night Sleep Trial plus an honest, 10-year warranty you can actually use (no gimmicks). More than 95% of Tuft & Needle customers decide to keep their mattress and refer it to others!

For returns, Tuft & Needle works with local non-profits to get your mattress return into good hands as easily as possible โ€” no need to try to stuff it back in a box. It gets picked up from your home and goes to a good cause. Even after you’ve decided you love your mattress & pillow, you’ll find the mattress has a full 10 year warranty and the pillow has a 3 year warranty. This warranty is *not* pro-rated, which means if you do happen to have an issue within that time, it will be solved for you with no hassle.

๐Ÿงณ Pack light with items that do more

We bring clothes that mix and match, quick-dry layers, fold-flat totes, and activities that encourage creativity. Think art supplies and travel board games. The less we carry, the more we can explore.

๐Ÿฅช Eat often and try new flavors
We use snack stops and meals to experience local culture. Bakeries, fruit stands, and small cafรฉs become our favorite spots. 

๐Ÿž๏ธ Choose simple adventures over packed days
We go on kid-friendly hikes, stop at playgrounds, and tour cultural centers. We visit great houses, historic workhouses, and local museums.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Use screens sparingly
Ideally our kids only use screens on travel days, and with a time limit. Shows and multi-player games can help turn dull afternoons into family fun!

๐Ÿ”ฆ Encourage curiosity
We explore as much as we can with our four kids, shopping at markets, using public transportation, and visiting immersive attractions. We find many free activities, and budget for must-see destinations.

Because we travel with our kids, our children are brave and adventurous โ€” willing to try new things and eager to problem solve. Adventurous kids are resourceful kids!

We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easte We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easter weekend. โ›ฒ๏ธโœจ Even though the streets of Rome were packed, this site had crowd control security, who only let a few people down in front of the fountain at a time.

We stood in line for 10 minutes, and were given unrushed time to take photos and video clips in front of this iconic landmark. ๐Ÿ“ธ We have no idea whether this is normal, but it was such a special highlight in Rome! 

Have you been to the Trevi Fountain? What was your experience with the crowds?

๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Tower Bridge ended up being such a memorable stop! The walkways offer amazing views of the River Thames and the city skyline.

โœจ Fun facts:

Tower Bridge opened in 1894 after eight years of construction.

Itโ€™s a bascule bridge, meaning the roadway lifts up for tall ships to pass through.

The glass floor walkways were added in 2014, giving visitors a thrilling (and slightly scary!) perspective from 138 feet above the Thames.

Our kids loved learning how the bridge lifts up using giant counterweights, and we all left with a new appreciation for Londonโ€™s engineering and history. ๐Ÿ’™

Would you be brave enough to walk across the glass floor? ๐Ÿ˜„
