The 15 Best Online Mattress Companies of 2023

Avocado Mattress

View On Avocadogreenmattress.com

Founded in 2016 as a result of frustration with dishonest marketing, non-green options, and overpriced mattresses, Avocado sought to change things in the industry by creating affordable mattress options that are made with nontoxic, natural, and organic materials. 

The Hoboken, New Jersey-based brand currently has 14 retail locations, with more on the horizon. Of course, you can also purchase one of its mattresses on the company’s website. The brand has five mattresses built for adults as well as three crib options and one kid-sized mattress. As far as the adult mattresses go, they’re all available in sizes twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king (with two of the options available in the split California king size), and they’re built with green standards in mind.

Avocado’s best seller is the Luxury Organic Mattress, a softer option that includes 17 layers of latex, alpaca, wool, silk, and hemp. The mattress offers a choice between the standard option, which ranks a 5/10 on the firmness scale, and the much plusher option, which sits at a 3/10 on the firmness scale. While the price point is higher than many others on the list, you are getting a lot of mattress and a lot of detailing; each mattress is needle tufted by hand. One drawback, however, is that some customers found it to be slightly more firm than expected.

Layla Mattress

View On Amazon View On Laylasleep.com

When brothers Akbar and Akrum Sheikh set out to enter the mattress manufacturing marketplace in 2016, their goal was to create a great mattress as well as a great way to buy a mattress. After years of dealing with less-than-honest business practices from distributors, the two brothers wanted a system that kept prices down and provided quality products. Today, you can purchase Layla’s American-made mattresses on the company’s website and on Amazon.

Layla offers both a memory foam mattress as well as a more expensive hybrid option. Products are available in twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king. The memory foam mattress uses copper gel, which is able to adjust to your shifting weight with increased firmness, offering support all night long. Additionally, copper is conductive, which allows it to draw away heat from your body, ensuring a cooler night of sleep. 

However, some customers found this particular Layla mattress to be slightly too firm for their needs. With just two mattresses to choose from, the hybrid alternative may not be any less firm for those in need of extra softness.

Bear Mattress

View On Bear

Bear was started by a family with 25 years in the mattress business. The goal of the company was to create mattresses to help everyone, from professional athletes to teenagers, ensure they wake up feeling their absolute best. With three different mattress options covering every size from twin to split king, you can try out and purchase Bear’s mattresses at a number of locations across the United States. The mattresses can also be found on the company’s website.

If you’re a hot sleeper, the Bear Elite Hybrid is a great pick. It includes copper-infused memory foam to ensure a cool night of sleep, and edge-to-edge individually encased coils increase the durability of this mattress. It’s also UL Greenguard Gold Certified, meaning you can rest easy knowing you’re not breathing in harmful chemicals. Plus, it comes in a box! 

One drawback with Bear mattresses, though, is that some customers have complained the product can soften over time, losing the support present in the beginning.

Nest Bedding

View On Nest Bedding

Nest Bedding is a family-owned company founded in 2011. While it’s famous for being one of the first mattress-in-a-box companies, Nest also creates mattresses with a special focus: using only clean, American-made materials. 

The brand has showrooms in California, Washington, Texas, Illinois, and Minnesota, but you can easily purchase through the company’s website as well. Nest has nine different mattresses with options ranging from hybrid to latex, so there’s something available for every kind of sleeper. There’s also a handy quiz to help you find out which one is best for you.

The Robin, a flippable memory foam hybrid, is an option for all kinds of sleepers—stomach, back, and side alike—because of its dual firmness options (medium feel on the top and a firm feel on the bottom). Plus, you get the best of both worlds with CertiPUR-US certified foams offering cushiony support and coils that offer airflow and edge support. Not firm enough? Flip it to the other side! One drawback: Customers have complained that the sides aren’t labeled, meaning they aren’t sure which firmness they’re getting.

Purple

Purple is the culmination of 20 years of work for two brothers, Tony, an aerospace engineer, and Terry, a manufacturing and materials expert. They set out to create mattresses that would alleviate pain so that people could live their best lives. Today you can purchase through the company’s website, Mattress Firm, and Amazon.

With its Essential Collection, Purple offers three mattresses at lower prices, all using the company’s GelFlex Grid. The Premium Collection also includes three mattresses, all more expensive and luxury-like in design and materials, with these products featuring an innovative GelFlex Grid as well as a Responsive Coil Core. 

In particular, The Purple Mattress has over 1,400 air channels built in, so you know it’ll breathe easy all night long. Plus, the GelFlex grid that Purple is known for supports you while keeping pressure points cradled and comfortable. It’s also a hypoallergenic option, which we think is great! One drawback, however, is it’s hard to move, as there are no handles for transport, as noted by our reviewer.

Parachute

View On Parachute

Parachute was founded in 2014 by Ariel Kaye, a design enthusiast who was frustrated that the mattress options out there weren’t cutting it in terms of quality, affordability, and shoppability. While it started as an online-only brand, Parachute now has brick-and-mortar shops across the United States. 

Parachute sells an array of products, including bedding, furniture, shower curtains, and many other items. Just one mattress is offered, but it’s highly regarded—and it can be purchased online only through the company’s website. 

This mattress, the Eco Comfort, is built with layers of New Zealand wool, organic cotton, and pocketed steel coils to bring you an eco-friendly night of sleep. It features two comfort zones at the top and bottom to ensure pressure point relief at the shoulders and alignment in the legs, while a support zone in the middle provides stability and enforcement for the hips and back. It’s all about support; however, some customers note that the mattress can lose a bit of support over time.

My Green Mattress

View On Mygreenmattress.com

Built out of a need to help his daughter Emily, who had eczema and environmental allergies, Tim Masters created My Green Mattress in 2006. The brand aims to grant everyone a peaceful night of sleep on a bed made of entirely natural materials. My Green Mattress sells three adult mattresses and two for kids. All of the brand’s mattresses feature latex and other all-natural ingredients, and one is purely latex with no springs. 

One of the highest-rated picks from My Green Mattress is the Natural Escape. It uses Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS)-certified organic latex and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)-certified organic wool and cotton, which combine to create a natural build with body-conforming comfort. Plus, the company’s attention to detail shines through with the button tufting done by hand across this mattress. One drawback, however, is a slight off-gassing odor that dissipates over time. Also, it can be a bit firm for the first few nights, but it breaks in rather quickly.

Saatva

View On Saatva

You’ve probably heard Saatva advertised on your favorite podcast. The brand started in 2010 with a desire to reshape the mattress profession, and it began changing the game by offering perks like 24/7 customer service and a no-strings-attached home trial. Since then, Saatva has taken off.

Saatva offers a slew of luxurious products to meet your needs. From the Solaire, which offers adjustable firmness, to the hypoallergenic-latex-made Zenhaven and five other adult-sized options, the brand really offers something for everyone. If you’re in the market for a Saatva, it does have a handful of viewing rooms, but each mattress is made to order and has to be ordered online.

Our favorite is the Saatva Classic Mattress, which received a 4.2 out of 5 stars in testing. It offers a tremendous amount of support and customizability thanks to its three options for firmness: plush soft, luxury firm, and firm. High-density memory foam provides pressure point relief, and our reviewer really liked the edge-to-edge support, saying, “I could roll onto the edge of the bed or sit up with my legs hanging off of it, and the mattress barely gave under my weight and didn’t sag at all.” However, it’s important to note that the coils don’t limit motion transfer, meaning that if your partner moves a lot during the night, you’ll feel it.

Brooklyn Bedding

View On Amazon View On Brooklynbedding.com

The Merwin brothers started Brooklyn Bedding in 1995. The company grew from a few retail shops in the Phoenix area to selling mattresses online over time. Today, all of its beds are made at an American factory. Brooklyn Bedding does have showrooms as well as partnerships across the country where you can try the product line. However, you can easily purchase your next mattress right on the company’s website or on Amazon. 

Brooklyn Bedding offers three different standard mattresses: one with a hotel feel, one cooling, and one hybrid. The brand also offers specialty mattresses that are more firm for specific body types and help promote muscle recovery for athletes.

The brand’s Aurora Luxe Cooling Mattress is for hot sleepers. It uses a GlacioTex Cooling Cover to remove your excess heat, ensuring cool sleep. The cooling technology doesn’t stop there, though. The top comfort layer uses PCM dynamic cooling to absorb heat, while hybrid airflow prevents heat retention. Additionally, it comes in three firmness options, ensuring stomach, side, and back sleepers are all accounted for (and comfortable!). One drawback for some is a soft center that allows for sinking.

WinkBeds

View On Winkbeds.com

Daniel Adler founded WinkBeds in 2015. Frustrated with costly mattresses that simply didn’t meet his needs, he decided to make his own. Today, you can purchase one of WinkBeds’ three mattresses—two made with foam as well as a Talalay latex option for those seeking an all-natural build—right online.

The brand’s best seller, The WinkBed, has a five-star rating online. It includes a full range of sizes (excluding split California king) and has four firmness options: softer, luxury firm, firmer, and plus (for heavier people). Individually wrapped pocketed coils ensure support along the entire mattress, meaning the edge-of-the-bed sleepers can breathe a sigh of relief. Additionally, the pillow top, with gel-infused foam, provides cushioning where your body needs it most so you can avoid muscle tension. One drawback of this mattress is its weight. Some customers have complained that it's hard to move, and a lack of handles only compounds the issue.

TempurPedic

View On Amazon View On Tempurpedic.com

In the early 1990s, Bobby Trussel discovered Tempur material when sleeping on a mattress in Sweden. He brought this material home and created one of the most famous mattress brands of the past 30 years: TempurPedic. While you can find these innovative beds at hundreds of retailers across the United States, you can also shop the company’s selection right online, including on Amazon. The brand offers four different mattresses, ranging from adjustable to one designed for cooling. 

The Tempur-Cloud is a mattress for anybody with back or neck pain, as the Tempur Comfort and Tempur Support layers are designed with responsiveness, conforming, and cushioning to ensure pressure relief all night long. It also offers great motion-transfer reduction to help you and your partner sleep soundly. One drawback is that some find the mattress to be a bit too firm for their needs.

Tuft and Needle

View On Amazon View On Crate & Barrel View On Jordans.com

Founded in 2012 with a focus on prioritizing customers, Tuft and Needle has grown into one of the more famous online mattress companies of the past decade or so. All of the brand’s mattresses are free from harmful ingredients, and customer feedback is used to continually improve the product lineup. Today, you can find Tuft and Needle mattresses at plenty of places online, from retail partners like Crate & Barrel and Jordan’s Furniture to Amazon—and of course the brand’s own website.

Three mattress options are available to accommodate different sleeping styles, needs, and price points. As Breus notes, “Most people do best on a medium firm,” which is why The Mint Mattress from Tuft and Needle is so universally great. Additionally, the T & N adaptive foam offers pressure relief and mitigates hip and shoulder pain. Fortunately, this doesn’t come at the expense of cooling technology. Some users do complain of mild off-gassing when the mattress first arrives, but this dissipates over time.

Casper

View On Amazon View On Casper

As one of the leaders in bed-in-a-box mattresses, Casper has been selling its products online since 2014. In that time, the company has contributed over 70,000 mattresses to people in need. Casper’s mattresses are constantly updated and improved based on research data. Its products can be found at countless distributors, and you can also purchase on Casper’s site and through Amazon.

The Casper Original is a classic and for good reason. This mattress offers "cloudlike comfort" according to our reviewer, albeit at a bit of a premium price. The mattress arriving in a box (with a return label included) is incredibly convenient. Casper’s hybrid mattresses are well-built, with three layers to provide maximal comfort. The second layer includes three ergonomic zones to ensure your spine remains aligned while your shoulders can gently sink and your hips remain cradled. However, our reviewer found the mattress is a bit too soft for some.

Sleep on Latex

View On Sleeponlatex.com

Founded in 2013, Sleep On Latex has become the largest retailer of latex mattress products in America through its usage of Pure Green Natural Latex foam, a revolutionary product. The online mattress company is consistently reinvesting to ensure its products and development only continue to improve. You can purchase a Sleep On Latex mattress from the company’s website. 

The Pure Green Organic Mattress is the company’s only mattress, but it’s available in medium and firm options. Built with organic latex, organic cotton, and organic New Zealand wool, it’s hand-sewn and assembled in an Illinois factory. The latex offers added breathability while also absorbing pressure, making this mattress a selection for anyone who needs back pain relief. It arrives fully assembled in recyclable packaging. Some customers have complained it’s too firm, even the medium option, for their needs.
