Nectar Sleep was founded by Ran Reske, Craig Schmeizer, and Eric Hutchinson in 2016. Headquartered in San Mateo, California, the company sells bed-in-a-box foam mattresses and bed frames in the United States and the United Kingdom.

The Nectar Memory Foam Mattress is comprised of the following different layers, including CeriPUR-US Certified materials:

  • Tencel Cooling Cover — A quilted cover meant to help with heat retention to keep you cool while you sleep.
  • Quilted Gel Memory Foam — A comfort layer of cooling memory foam that adds lofted support and cooling relief while you are sleeping.
  • Gel Memory Foam — Called Lush Foam, this is the most premium gel foam available. It holds several patents and helps distribute and absorb heat.
  • Adaptive HiCore Memory Foam — A heavy, high-density foam that helps to support pressure points and keep you from sinking into your new mattress.
  • Breathable Base Layer — A dense bottom layer of support foam with 2.2+ ILD rating.

It is available in Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and California King, and ranges in price between $499 and $1,398.

The company also offers a Nectar Lush Mattress, which ranges in price from $999 to $1,699 and is made of innovative, high-density memory foam meant for superior support and dual-action cooling.

The mattresses can be purchased at nectarsleep.com, Amazon, and a variety of other mattress retailers like Denver Mattress and Mattress Warehouse.

The Good

  • Free Shipping and Returns
  • Financing Options
  • 365-Night Home Trial
  • Great Warranty

Free Shipping and Returns

When you order a mattress from nectarsleep.com, you get free FedEx shipping and returns within the contiguous 48 states.

The lead time between when your order is placed and when it starts shipping is only 2–3 business days. That is not the case with many other mattress retailers.

This is a quick-ship, bed-in-a-box mattress; however, white glove delivery service is available, starting at $149. While not many budget shoppers look for this type of service, there is a huge group of consumers who are happy and willing to pay for someone to lug a mattress up the stairs and set it up for them. We always appreciate the option, especially when both budget shoppers and those in need of set-up assistance can have it their way.

Financing Options

Nectar shoppers have the option to finance with Affirm. This financing company works as a pay-as-you-go type of credit. When you check out, you will know exactly how many monthly payments are needed and how much they will be.

A soft credit check is performed and will not affect your credit score.

Rates vary between 0–30 percent APR and loans can be for 3 to 24 months.

365-Night Home Trial

Nectar offers a great refund policy, with a 356-night home trial that starts 30 days after your delivery. This is a risk-free trial and an industry-max length that is matched only by a handful of competing mattress brands. Buying a mattress online can feel risky. This trial makes sure that you can get a comfortable mattress, and you won’t lose your investment if the firmness isn’t appropriate for your body.

If you buy a Nectar mattress, you have a full year to decide if it was a good purchase. All sales are not final. You won’t be stuck with a mattress that doesn’t work for you.

Please note that if you purchase other products from Nectar, like a mattress foundation, it may have a shorter refund period.

Additionally, if you exercise the right to do a return, your white glove service is nonrefundable after it has been performed.

Great Warranty

This company offers what it calls a “Limited Nectar Forever Warranty” on its mattresses. The warranty is for the original purchaser and is non-transferrable. This is basically a limited lifetime warranty. It includes a 10-year full replacement warranty, with no deductible.

After 10 years, the manufacturer will either repair, recover, or replace your mattress, with a $50 shipping fee, each way.

The Bad

  • Limited Selection

Limited Selection

There are only two mattresses to choose from. Normally, consumers can choose a mattress with a different comfort level; however, with Nectar, there are only two options: the Nectar Mattress, made of premium memory foam, or the Nectar Lush Mattress, made with an innovative, higher-density memory foam.

This is the main drawback for someone who needs a softer or firmer mattress, or prefers an innerspring or hybrid bed for different sleeping positions.

The Bottom Line

Nectar Sleep offers two mattresses. Both are made with high-quality materials and are medium to medium-firm.

Customers benefit from a long warranty, a year-long return policy, and free shipping within the contiguous United States.

It is a good mattress, but a little hard and it takes time for it to conform and get comfortable. You don't want to plop yourself down on the mattress either unless you want to get hurt.

I like their mattress quality and sleep quite is very good on it. It is very comfortable and they use some foaming technology to ease body and relax it . I have ordered it and it was delivered to my doorstep on time. Overall its a good quality product and long lasting as well .I got it on deal and the value is just great.

I absolutely love love love my nectar mattress. I have experienced the best sleep ever the past year and highly recommend it to everyone. The reason I didn't give 5 stars has to do with the platform bed legs. Unfortunately a couple broke within the first few weeks and were not fixable, so my mattress sits on the floor. The frame was definitely not the same quality as the mattress. I called but never got a call back. But, my mattress rocks!

My daughter purchased a Nectar and recommended it. I checked out their website and was happy with the specials they were offering. Purchased online. With the mattress purchase, I also received a free set of sheets, a mattress cover and free shipping. For the price I paid, was genuinely pleased. After comparing queen mattress prices, felt even better about the purchase. Having made this purchase during the Covid pandemic, there was a delay in shippng, but the company kept me informed of this. Once delivered, we followed the directions, opened the package and allowed the mattress to achieve it's normal shape. After reading some reviews about an odd odor when others opened their new mattress, we allowed it to "rest" for a couple of days. We did not experience odd odors or any issues with the mattress. Given that my husband prefers a firm mattress and I prefer a softer mattress, I was surprised that this mattress fit both of our needs! My daughter had experienced the same feeling and encouraged me to try it. So glad we took her suggestion.

When I first bought this bed I thought it felt amazing and one of the main reasons I wanted the mattress was because of my back pain and the night sweats and the insomnia I was having… From all the reviews it looks like most people were very impressed with this mattress so I decided to purchase it… It’s been about six months since I purchased this mattress and while I do find it incredibly comfortable and the pillows that they send with the mattress are amazing I am still not sleeping great and I just still suffer from that pain… It does not mean that I don’t refer this mattress to friends and family because I have because I do believe that some people will benefit from it but I think I am in need of a firmer mattress

I’ve never slept on this type of bed before. It’s been great this whole past year. Pillows and all! Glad I bought this. I’ve noticed it can make you feel a little warmer than a regular mattress especially in summer but small potatoes compared to my improved back support. I would recommend this mattress very much.

I dislike that I have not been able to talk to someone to change my payment date. It turned out to be really bad for me and I am afraid it has hurt my credit with them which I desperately didn't want to do. Other than that I don't have any complaints. I just think they need a contact number and person to talk to.

I ordered a mattress after seeing an Ad on instagram and I was not disappointed. It was my first time getting a “mattress in a box” and I was pleasantly surprised by how durable it was and how big it got after being stuffed in a box and vacuum sealed. I would get a softer one next time though because it was a bit firm, but still good for the money.

I like the mattress for its support. The one thing I would like to change is how much heat the mattress retains.

This company is great with their 365 trial period. I currently sleep on one of their mattresses and my only complain is the motion transfer when changing positions. It's a little hard and takes work which is not ideal. A little firmer would be better in my opinion but great mattress overall.

I have loved my nectar. My wife...not so much. It is the perfect firmness and I don't wake up sore. My wifes biggest complaint is that it sleeps hot which I would agree but nothing too crazy.

The bed frame has very cheap legs and does not hold up. The mattress itself is quite comfortable.
