Tuft & Needle Original is a 9.5″ all-foam mattress. The mattress is described as firm on the Tuft & Needle website. However, third-party engineer testing (commissioned by us) showed that the mattress is medium-firm—and just barely above a medium. Tuft & Needle Original has very good edge support but below-average motion isolation, which is unusual for a foam mattress.

The mattress contains just 2 foam layers. The top layer contains graphite and gel foam to provide cooling, but these are the only cooling features. The plush cover, made of micro-polyamide and polyester, isn’t machine washable and must be spot-cleaned only.

Tuft & Needle Original seems to fall short in quality, according to customer reviews. Some customers who purchased the mattress through Amazon have complained that the mattress sags and degrades within a few years of purchase. Others say that the mattress traps heat or has caused them back pain.

In comparison, competing all-foam mattress Douglas costs just $799 for a queen size. It comes with cooling features, a machine-washable cover, a 365-night sleep trial, and a 20-year warranty. Douglas has 21,000+ five-star reviews, and the company is rated “A+” on BBB and “Excellent” on Trustpilot.

The Zinus Green Tea memory foam mattress is 12″ thick and has 3 foam layers. On the manufacturer website, the product page describes these layers as having a “supportive feel” meant to cradle your joints and align your spine. Its top layer is noted for its green tea and “ActivCharcoal” charcoal infusions, which are meant to keep this mattress feeling fresh.

Zinus Green Tea has excellent motion isolation, but very little bounce and comparatively poor edge support. It also has a very soft feel for a comfortable but less supportive sleep. Some customers complain of back pain as a result.

Because this is a memory foam mattress, you may notice higher temperatures while you sleep—and Zinus doesn’t offer cooling features to balance out the heat. The mattress cover is also not machine-washable, and removing it could “harm the fire safety barrier,” according to Zinus’s website. This barrier is made of either fiberglass or a rayon-based fire retardant, depending on where and when you buy the mattress.

Zinus is only available in Canada through third-party retailers, so prices will vary depending on where you buy. At $320 for a queen size, Zinus Green Tea has a lower price point than many other memory foam mattresses. Zinus also offers a 10-year limited warranty, which is about standard.

However, Zinus doesn’t offer a sleep trial in Canada. Competing foam mattresses like Juno come with a 120-night sleep trial and a 15-year warranty.

Polysleep Sierra is a firm 9″ foam mattress with 2 interior layers. Featuring anti-microbial foam in its comfort layer, this mattress has good edge support and motion isolation, as well as average bounce. However, Polysleep Sierra notably lacks advanced cooling technologies. Memory foam is known for its heat-trapping properties, so you could notice overheating with this mattress.

Although most Polysleep mattresses have some branding on their cover, Polysleep Sierra’s cover is entirely white and has no branding whatsoever. The reason for this design decision is unclear, but it means that you can’t tell that the Sierra mattress is a Polysleep model just by looking at it. The cover is 100% polyester and is removable, but is not machine washable.

Polysleep Sierra comes with an industry standard 100-night sleep trial. However, it only has a 5-year warranty, which is only half the length (or less) compared to the warranties of most other mattresses. This is also the only full-scale Polysleep mattress with such a short warranty.

Competing mattress Juno, in comparison, offers more features for a lower price at $499 for a queen size. Juno comes with a layer of cooling gel foam, a 120-night sleep trial, a 15-year warranty, and an optional Cool+ cover upgrade for an even cooler sleep. Your purchase also comes with a free bedding bundle that includes a mattress protector, pillow(s), sheets, and pillow protector(s).

Springwall Enchantment is a 9″ all-foam mattress with a firm feel, above-average motion isolation, and below-average edge support. The top layer is gel-infused foam that adjusts to your body’s shape and wicks away moisture while you sleep. The bottom layer is made of soy-based foam, which the manufacturer claims is eco-friendly. All foam used is CertiPUR-US® certified.

This mattress comes in twin, full/double, and queen sizes. It costs $399 and is available at The Brick. However, sleepers interested in this mattress should be wary of prices listed in-store, or on The Brick’s website. As of November 2024, the company is being investigated for deceptive marketing practices (like artificially inflated prices) by the Canadian Competition Bureau.

Apart from potentially unclear prices, Springwall also lacks features often offered by similar companies like a machine-washable cover or free sleep accessories with purchase.

In contrast, a competing value foam mattress like Juno costs $499 for a queen size and offers much more value for its price point with a free bedding bundle that includes a mattress protector, pillow(s), sheets, and pillow protector(s). The Juno website also has 7,100+ verified customer reviews, while Springwall Enchantment has only a handful on The Brick’s website.

Bloom Earth is among the lowest-priced options in the Bloom product line, but it’s still seen a 50% price increase since 2019. This medium-soft mattress features a 3-layer design that hugs you when you lie down. It also includes bamboo charcoal, which Bloom claims will help manage odours. The mattress offers above-average motion isolation, which helps manage motion transfer from one side of the bed to the other.

Made in countries like Spain and China, this mattress is popular among value shoppers who pay closer attention to price tags than features. However, you may not end up saving any money if you need to return the mattress. Sleep Country doesn’t offer home pickups for returns, so you’ll need to arrange transportation to a store.

You also won’t get a refund, only in-store credit that you can put toward the purchase of a different mattress—and you’ll need to pay an exchange fee. In comparison, other value mattress companies like Juno offer a 120-night sleep trial with free pickups and full refunds.

The Novaform ComfortGrande Plus mattress is designed to provide the comfort of memory foam at an affordable price. It has a medium-firm feel and comes in a queen size only.

This mattress uses eco-conscious construction, including memory foam layers and a cooling top layer to enhance comfort. However, some customers have reported that the mattress has a tendency to trap heat, despite its cooling features. This mattress also noticeably has poor edge support, so it may not provide the support you need.

Novaform ComfortGrande Plus is available online from Costco at $699 for a queen size. You might have trouble finding the mattress in-store for this price, since brand availability and pricing can vary depending on which Costco you shop at. You also can’t buy the mattress without a paid Costco membership.

In contrast, competitor mattress Douglas Original is easily available online through the Douglas website, with no membership required. The mattress offers enhanced cooling with its moisture-wicking CoolSense® cover and breathable Elastex® foam. It has superior edge support, providing the right amount of support and comfort. Douglas also comes with a free bedding bundle—something you won’t get from Costco—and is still affordably priced at just $799 for a queen size.

IKEA Haugesund is a hybrid mattress available in both firm and medium-firm options. We purchased the medium-firm option to review and still found it to be quite firm.

Haugesund is made up of three layers: top and bottom layers of comfortable polyurethane foam, with a thick layer of supportive pocketed coil springs in between. You should experience some cushioning when you lie down. The springs provide a high level of bounce, but you may or may not enjoy this level of responsiveness.

The innersprings are also surrounded by foam sidewalls, providing good edge support and structure. The top cover contains a soft fill and is not machine washable.

Simmons Gel Memory Foam is an 8″ foam mattress with a firm feel. It features 3 layers of foam, including a support layer that is relatively thin compared to other foam mattresses. This means that the mattress may offer minimal plushness and sink, limiting the amount of pressure-point relief and comfort.

It has excellent edge support and very good motion isolation, but very low bounce. Simmons Gel Memory Foam also lacks advanced cooling features and is only available in twin to queen size.

The mattress cover is made from a blend of 72% polyester and 28% micro-polyamide, a polymer-like microfiber that’s blended with elastane. The cover has a zipper, but the law label does not state whether or not the cover is machine washable. To avoid damaging the mattress cover, we recommend spot-cleaning it only.

In Canada, the mattress is available online via Costco and retailers like Amazon. If purchased from Costco, brand availability and pricing can vary depending on which Costco you shop at. Shipping time is longer than average for a bed-in-a-box mattress, which can be inconvenient if you need a new mattress quickly. You also need a paid Costco membership to buy a mattress there.

Molblly performed well in third-party engineer testing (commissioned by us). It has excellent edge support and above-average motion isolation. However, apart from a layer of cooling gel foam, Molblly lacks cooling features found in other affordable mattresses that help keep temperatures comfortable.

It’s unclear whether this is a genuine Canadian mattress. The mattress law label indicates that the product is made in Vietnam, while the Amazon page states that Molblly products are assembled in Canada. If you’re seeking an authentic Canadian mattress that is both made and assembled in Canada, you may want to consider Juno.

Molblly’s law label also doesn’t say whether the polyester mattress cover is machine washable. Just to be safe, we recommend spot-cleaning only.

The mattress comes with a 10-year warranty, which is standard for the mattress industry. However, Molblly doesn’t come with a sleep trial. This is because the mattress is sold through Amazon, which doesn’t allow returns for mattresses that have been opened. As a result, you don’t get the at-home sleep trial offered by other popular mattress brands like Juno. If you want to try out a mattress in the comfort of your home before committing to it in the long term, then the Molblly may not be for you.
