Looking for where to test a Thuma mattress before buying? You're not alone. Thuma has built a reputation for beautiful wooden bed frames, classic headboard designs, and natural mattresses, but finding a place to try their products in person can be tricky.
The short answer: Thuma has one flagship store in NYC where you can test their products, but for most people, they operate primarily online with a home trial program. If you're not in New York, don't worry - there's still a smart way to experience what a Thuma bed feels like before making your decision.
Can You Test a Thuma Bed Frame and Mattress In-Store?
The answer is mostly no, but there's one important exception. Thuma operates one flagship location at 99 Wooster Street in SoHo, New York City, where you can experience their collection in person. However, for most people, this online-first company means you can't walk into a regular mattress store to try their products or check their classic headboard designs.
💡 Pro Tip: Even if you're in NYC, it helps to test similar materials at SleePare first. Our team can walk you through latex types, organic certifications, and how different constructions feel before you decide.
The Thuma Mattress Testing Challenge:
- Only one physical showroom location (NYC SoHo flagship)
- Online-only business model for most customers
- Limited to their home trial program for testing mattresses outside NYC
- Most people can't experience the classic Thuma bed or mattress review process before delivery
- No way to check compatibility with accessories like pillows, sheets, or mattress toppers unless you're in NYC
Not in NYC? SleePare makes it easy to try natural mattresses in-store at locations across the country - no appointment or shipping wait required.
Why You Should Test Natural Mattresses Like Thuma's
Thuma's approach focuses on natural materials and simple construction for both their bed frames and mattresses. Instead of complicated layers and marketing gimmicks, they use quality materials like natural latex and organic cotton covers.
This minimalist approach creates a unique sleep experience.
When paired with Thuma’s wooden bed frames and classic headboards, it's important to understand how these natural materials feel before you commit.
What Makes Thuma Bed and Mattress Combinations Special
Here's what sets Thuma’s bed and mattress combo apart:
- Natural latex that responds to your body without chemicals
- Organic cotton covers that breathe well and stay cool
- Simple construction without unnecessary layers
- Medium feel that works for most sleep positions
Test Natural Latex and Organic Mattresses at SleePare

Natural Materials You Can Test:

The Problem with Buying Natural Mattresses Online Only
Natural mattresses aren’t one-size-fits-all. Medium-firm for one person may feel too soft or too firm for another - which is why in-store testing matters, especially for premium natural materials.
At SleePare, you avoid the online guessing game:
- Test multiple natural material combinations in one visit
- Feel the difference between different types of latex and certified organic options
- Find the exact firmness that works for your body and classic bed setup
- Take your perfect mattress home immediately
Many customers come in thinking they want one type of natural material and discover something completely different works better for their body and sleep style.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you try a Thuma mattress in a store?
Yes, but only in New York City at their flagship store. Thuma does not have other retail showrooms. If you're not nearby, you can try similar natural mattresses at SleePare locations across the U.S. and Canada.
What's the best way to test a mattress like Thuma's?
Visit SleePare to test natural latex and certified organic mattresses with similar construction to Thuma bed mattresses. We carry mattresses made with the same types of natural materials - 100% latex, organic cotton, and chemical-free construction. This helps you understand how natural materials feel before making any purchase. You can also browse our natural mattress collection online and shop for compatible bed frame accessories.
Does Thuma sell mattresses online?
Yes, Thuma sells its mattress online through its official website. However, you can’t try it in person before buying. If you’re looking for natural, minimalist mattresses you can test first and still shop online, SleePare offers a curated selection of mattresses that reflect similar values. You can visit a showroom or order directly from our online store.
How long should I test a natural mattress for bed frame compatibility?
Spend at least 15-20 minutes on each natural mattress, especially when considering classic bed frame setups. Natural latex can feel different at first touch compared to how it supports you over time. Try your normal sleeping positions and pay attention to how the materials respond to your body and work with your bed frame style. Take your time - natural materials are an investment in your health and sleep quality at home.
