Conclusion
While Nectar is a China-made mattress ,Casper is a USA brand in the front-line of the industry. Both are unique in the sense that each offers a single type of mattress.
While Nectar focuses on all-foam mattresses, Casper has all three mattresses on coil foundations. When brought head to head, Casper the hybrid specialist does better than Nectar the all-foam specialist.
Casper offers the combination of memory foam, latex and polyfoam layers to create a unique and comfortable sleeping experience for every sleeper while Nectar uses just memory foam. Casper also comes with two firmness options: the wave Hybrid mattress is on the firm side while the Nova Hybrid is on the medium-firm position in the firmness scale. This gives every sleeper a tailored support.
