I was worried I might cut the mattress cover or mattress by accident. A little trepidation crossed through my mind upon cutting the first bag because it was vacuum-sealed. Then, I cut the outer of two plastic bags. It’s strange to see such a big mattress boxed.Īfter opening the box, I laid the mattress directly on the bed's foundation-in my case, a box spring on a bed frame. Bed-in-a-box mattresses are shrunk down into a vacuum-sealed bag. If you’ve never had a bed-in-a-box mattress delivered to your door, you’re in for a bit of a shocker. I’ll admit that I was pleasantly surprised by the luxury and cooling the Mint offered.Īs a sleeper who easily overheats, you can bet breathability and heat retention were high on my radar. I was specifically looking for how well it dispersed heat and cushioned as I changed sleep positions. I tested it, knowing it’s considered a “middle of the road” option. The all-foam Tuft & Needle Mint straddles the line between this brand’s entry-level mattress and its luxury hybrid model. However, they usually have one major downfall-trapped moisture and body heat. Foam mattresses offer excellent contouring to the body’s curves and plenty of comfort. That adds pressure when trying to find the right model. In theory, you should spend at least six to eight hours a day (some less, some more) on this one household product.
