For back sleepers, the coils beneath provide support and adequate firmness at the back coupled with a memory foam layer that contours perfectly. An additional latex layer limits sinkage to crown it all for back sleepers.

Side Sleepers

For side sleepers, this is also a great mattress so long as they are not too heavy.

Conclusion

Tuft and Needle came in 2012 and brought in their A-game with three mattreses: two all-foam mattresses and one hybrid.

Tuft and Needle comes with its own patented T&N Adaptive Foam which promises an effective pressure relief from pressure points in the body.

Casper on the other hand is a great hybrid brand as it offers three of them. Casper performs better than T&N’ Adaptive Foam when it comes to support.

Casper uses a Polyurethane foam that has three zones dedicated for support which is carefully tailored to relief pressure off designated pressure points and alleviate back pains.

When it comes to comfort, Casper provides a better cool sleep using a cooling technology known as AirScapeTM which makes its mattresses cooler.
