Conclusion

Tuft and Needle came into the industry in 2012 and became a threat to other brands with the quality it brought. Three mattresses are in its collection. Two are all-foams and one is a hybrid.

T&N comes with its proprietary technology called the T&N Adaptive® Foam which promises unique comfort and then the appearance of coils makes support even better.

But when brought up against Puffy, T&N is no match. While Puffy has two mattresses to offer which are both all-foams, it provided superior comfort with them and enhanced the support they offer to sleepers.

With layers of cloud cooling gel foams and climate cloud foams, comfort is offered on a cool platter.

A body adapting cloud layer provides a more tailored support to the alleviation of back pains through spine alignment and pressure relief.

Puffy also proves to be more durable.
