What makes Nectar the grand champion of comfort?
Nectar’s focus has been on engineering a perfect night’s sleep. (And it has the awards and ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reviews to prove it.)
Nectar is a decorated champ of drool-worthy sleep. Puffy is…wait. Who even is Puffy?

Puffy’s ‘trophy room’ isn’t what it claims to be.
- Most of the award lists that Puffy says they’re on refer to Puffy Lux (which is hundreds and hundreds of dollars more than Puffy).
- At least one of the lists doesn’t actually include Puffy.
Nectar is 12 inches high. Puffy is a “too soft” 10 inches.
Customers report loooong, happy-faced slumbers on nights with Nectar. Puffy is stunted at 2 inches shorter. And still somehow slightly more expensive.* Why? Let’s look at the layers of each mattress.
Both Nectar and Puffy are memory foam…
- But unlike Puffy – which is all too-soft foam and base layer – Nectar gives you more. Keen engineering places your cradle layer over your support layer over your stability layer. All underneath a soft, breathable cover.Translation: you sleep snug as a bug all night.
- Unlike Nectar, Puffy goes like this: plain polyester, thin slab #1, thin slab #2. Then the base. Which really just adds height. Engineering matters, and Puffy’s is lacking. Sleep Foundation puts Puffy at a 5/10 softness (compared to Nectar’s 6.5) and slurps you in with a 2/5 on the ease-of-movement scale (Compared to Nectar’s 5/5).Not exactly cozy conditions for Dreamland Express.
Layered foam like you’ll find in Nectar is the gold standard if you want a comfortable night’s sleep, night after night.

Breathable Cooling Cover
Our signature cover is designed with innovative cooling technology for a refreshing rest. It features heat-absorbent polyethylene fibers that help wick excess body heat away to promote cool sleep.
Therapeutic Gel-Infused Memory Foam
Two inches of CertiPUR-US® Certified gel memory foam contours to your every curve. Plush gel memory foam offers pressure-relieving support and sleeps cooler than traditional memory foam.
Dynamic Response Layer
Three inches of conventional CertiPUR-US® Certified foam provides support while allowing airflow, plus crucial rebound and bounce. This responsive layer helps minimize motion transfer and promotes better spinal alignment.
ActiveSupport Stability Base Layer
Seven inches of conventional CertiPUR-US® Certified foam ensures structure, so the layers above it perform at their peak. This durable layer is the foundation for better sleep.
Shift-Resistant Lower Cover
The soft stitchbond polyester cover helps the inner core of your mattress stay in place, and prevents each of the layers from shifting on top of each other.

Why you should look closely at Puffy. And why you may not like what you find.
Here’s the thing. It’s 2020. Anyone can sell anything online. Getting in stores is much more difficult. Nectar? Try it in a store near you, if that’s what you prefer. Puffy? Online only.
You can try Nectar in over 2,000 stores nationwide!
When you dig a bit deeper, multiple review sites say that Puffy is highly not recommended for those who weigh over 230 pounds.
So what does that mean for couples who together weigh over that? A lot of sink. And a lot of sweat.
Puffy seems more interested in manufacturing something to sell online. Rather than manufacturing something effective.
Plus, when you find out that Puffy is just not right for you, customer service sounds like an absolute nightmare.
These reviews could only be found on Consumer Affairs. Nowhere on the Puffy website.
So to sum it up:
- Nectar uses premium foams to help provide optimal support for your entire body, no matter your height. Puffy can barely hold average weight.
- Nectar is 2” taller with more foam than Puffy.
- Nectar is a perfect 6.5 on the firmness scale. Puffy is a hold-you-captive 5.
- Even with its superior construction, outstanding ratings, countless awards and amazing night’s sleep – plus its one-year trial and forever warranty – Nectar STILL costs $50 less than Puffy.*
- You can get through to Nectar’s customer service right away. It looks like Puffy may never return calls and emails.
- Nectar is decorated in the industry. Puffy pretends to be decorated in the industry.
