The Top 10 Mail Order Beds – Our 2023 Reviews

Nectar hasn’t been on the market very long; the company has only been in business since 2016. However, you would never know that based on how popular the brand has become in just a handful of years.

The bed should provide a medium to medium-firm feel that delivers pressure relief and temperature control as the foams contour the sleeper. This 12-inch mattress features a polyurethane cover that should feel soft and cool to the touch.

What makes Nectar so exceptional?

• The company provides a high-end product made of durable materials and sells it at a great price, making it a good value option. They believe in their mattress so much that they offer a full year for shoppers to adjust to their new bed and guarantee satisfaction for life. This, combined with the overall comfort and versatility offered by this bed, makes it an excellent, can’t-miss product.

The Nolah memory foam mattress excels in pressure relief, which is great news for side sleepers. Those who sleep on their side often struggle with hip and shoulder relief, as they’re constantly focusing their body weight on a more narrow surface area, and the Nolah aims to help.

Why did Nolah make this list? 

• Nolah offers a comfortable, all-foam design that should provide a medium to medium-soft comfort level with pressure relief, minimal sinkage, and excellent motion isolation.
• Not only do shoppers get all of the above benefits, but the Nolah boasts notable temperature control. Many memory foam mattresses struggle with cooling, but the brand claims their proprietary Nolah AirFoam™ is 100% temperature neutral, providing a comfortable night’s sleep night after night. This bed should have you dreaming peacefully for years to come.
• Shoppers will also get an impressive lifetime warranty and a 120-night trial with their purchase.

Hybrids are versatile beds most people love, making them a good choice for a guest room. This DreamCloud is a luxury mattress with a mid-range firmness that supports the body in all sleeping positions. The company gives a lifetime warranty and 365 nights to decide if this is the right bed for your guest room.

The construction of the DreamCloud Luxury Hybrid starts with a soft-to-the-touch cover with quilted foam for plushness, comfort, and a luxurious feel. Next is the pressure-relief comfort layer with gel memory foam that cools the body, contouring to all shapes. The third layer prevents you from sinking into the bed, while the fourth keeps all the foam layers sturdy and structured. The bottom of the bed features a targeted-support coil layer with individually-wrapped coils that adapt to all body shapes.

Why does it stand out?

• DreamCloud is a luxury hybrid bed with premium materials that bring comfort, support, and responsiveness in all sleeping positions.

Many mail-order sleep products have an all-foam or hybrid construction. Saatva flips that market on its head by providing an innerspring that is shipped and set up for consumers for free, without ever compressing the mattress.

A cozy Euro top, two coil systems, lumbar support, and reinforced foam around the edges help ensure that shoppers seeking back pain relief can receive excellent support and comfort.

Why is Saatva’s innerspring so special?

• The company offers luxury materials and construction at a more affordable price. Shoppers can choose the comfort level that works best for them as the company offers plush soft, luxury firm, or firm models.
• The company relies on certified organic cotton in the cover and recycled steel springs to ensure consumers receive a healthy, eco-friendly bed.
• Customers purchasing a Saatva bed will get complimentary white glove delivery, so no heavy lifting is required, which is also helpful for those living with back pain.

Pillow tops give mattresses added plushness on the surface that enhances the feel of the bed. If this sounds like something you’d enjoy, the WinkBed comes with a Euro-style pillow top, which means the edges are sewn flush with the rest of the mattress.

The WinkBed’s Euro top features two inches of soft, gel-infused foam. The gel is great for hot sleepers because it helps prevent the material from becoming too warm. Underneath the Euro top, you get 2.5 inches of SupportCell foam for added comfort. The WinkBed’s 8-inch high support unit is comprised of individually wrapped coils. The coil layer includes 5-zoned support to provide extra pushback in the heavier areas that need it most. An inch of polyfoam lies at the bottom, giving the mattress structure and durability.

What stands out?

• Shoppers can choose from three different firmness options, which means the WinkBed should accommodate many types of sleepers.

Puffy is a popular mail order mattress that aims to keep allergy symptoms at bay. Its hypoallergenic cover should keep dustmites, debris, and other irritants from gaining too much ground. The cover is also stain-resistant and easily washable, thanks to a zippered design.

The Puffy rates at a 5.5 on our firmness scale, which means it should fit side and back sleepers well. It has a 6-inch layer of support foam at the base and a transitional 2-inch layer of thick Climate Comfort™ Foam just above it. The top of the Puffy features Cooling Cloud™ Foam, which is gel-infused for cozy temperature regulation.

Why we think you’ll love it

• This mattress should give sleepers the support they need without neglecting important pressure relief for areas like the shoulders and knees.

The Bear Star Hybrid comes compressed and packed into a box. Bear ships the mattress straight to your door, but you should first wait around 48 hours before using it. You’ll have to wait because the bed is compressed and therefore, will need time to expand to its full size.

This hybrid is rated 6 out of 10 on our firmness scale, so it should work well for most sleeping positions. The responsive foam layers and mid-range firmness should provide enough pressure relief for side and back sleepers, while stomach sleepers may like a firmer bed. The cooling gel foam is the first layer under the cover, keeping hot sleepers comfortable while preventing the pressure from building up in sensitive areas.

Why did we pick it?

• The Bear Star's hybrid design includes an edge-to-edge coil unit for bounce and high-quality support. The coils are individually-wrapped, responding to movement separately so that minimal motion is transferred from one edge to another.

Many people sleep hot and find it incredibly difficult to stay cool and dry throughout the night. All-foam products or memory materials can sometimes add to this overheating, as some of them allow the sleeper to sink into the dense, body-hugging foams. Thankfully, many companies have been hard at work coming up with ways to beat the heat and promote a cooler sleep experience.

What makes the Aurora Luxe so cool?

• Phase-changing technology is woven into the cover and top layer, along with copper gel-infused foams for a start. Individually pocketed coils promote airflow to further regulate temperature.
• The Aurora Luxe is available in three comfort options, soft, medium, and firm so that shoppers can find the feel that works best for their personal position preference.
• Good bounce and quickly responding foams should ensure easy repositioning.

Layla offers a unique memory foam experience by combining convoluted foam and copper-infused materials. This should prevent overheating even as shoppers sink into the pressure-relieving comfort layer. People of different sizes and position preferences can choose between medium-soft or medium-firm comfort options by simply flipping the mattress.

Why is Layla such a great memory foam mattress?

• By infusing the materials with copper, this product works to reduce a major sticking point for many shoppers considering a memory foam bed’s deep hug. Sleepers should remain cool and comfy all through the night.
• The dual-sided comfort options also earn this mattress a spot on our list, as different types of sleepers can still enjoy this product by flipping the bed to their desired feel.
•  Layla’s competitive pricing, generous sleep trial period, and lifetime warranty further add to its appeal and customer-friendly value.
