Blog > Where to Test a Tuft & Needle Mattress – And What to Do If You Can’t
Looking for where to test a Tuft & Needle mattress before buying - or find a mattress store that offers a similar in-store experience? Tuft & Needle built their reputation on simple, honest foam mattresses and now offers a few physical stores where you can try out their products. If you're wondering where to try Tuft & Needle mattress in store, you have some options - but they're very limited geographically.
The good news? You can still experience what a Tuft & Needle mattress feels like by testing similar foam mattresses with the same simple, cooling design - especially if you don’t live near one of their store locations.
Yes, but only at a few physical stores. Tuft & Needle has a limited number of retail locations and no traditional mattress shop presence in most cities with trained "Sleep Ambassadors" who help you test their foam mattresses. These stores are helpful if you're nearby - but most shoppers aren't.
💡 Pro Tip: While Tuft & Needle does offer in-store testing at a few locations, most people can't access them. Foam mattresses feel very different than spring mattresses, so testing similar models in person is especially important before buying.
Tuft & Needle's whole approach is about keeping things simple and effective. Instead of complicated layers and confusing options, they use just two layers of foam that work well together.
You can find this same straightforward feel in other foam mattresses and you can test them in person at SleePare.
When you understand how this simple foam construction feels and how it's different from memory foam or springs, you can make a smart choice whether you end up with Tuft & Needle or find something that works even better for your body.
If you appreciate Tuft & Needle's philosophy of simple, effective foam construction, you'll like what we offer at SleePare. While we don't carry this brand's mattresses, we specialize in letting you test high-quality foam mattresses that share the same values - honest construction, cooling comfort, and no unnecessary complications.

Many people rely on online reviews when shopping - but no review can replace actually feeling a mattress before you buy it.
Many customers come in thinking they want one type of foam construction and discover something completely different works better for their sleep style and preferences.
