About the brand
I just took my first nap on the Puffy mattress and I can’t wait to tell you all about it, covering important factors including firmness, edge support, pressure relief, and of course, pricing. The 2016 founded brand is USA based and is known to have a great reputation with 3 different memory foam mattresses, as well as other sleep accessories to complete the experience.

Our Verdict
The Puffy mattress isn’t the cheapest option, but it’s still rather affordable for a luxurious mattress and I’d say is worth the price and investment for all types of sleepers. Also if you’re still unsure if it’s the right mattress for you, they offer a generous trial period that allows you to return the mattress.
Pros
- Outstanding comfort
- Lifetime guarantee
- Adaptive support
Cons
- No white glove delivery
- Not the cheapest option
Products & Pricing
In-depth review
Firmness Level
On the firmness scale, I’m going to give this mattress a 6/10 and that’s actually right about where I feel like is right for me – not too firm but also not too soft, giving me support while still feeling nice on my skin. For most people, this is also usually the most comfortable type of firmness.
Cooling Properties
This mattress has really great cooling properties, even in the pillow. When I hold it I could instantly feel the built in cooling properties that are built in, especially as a hot sleeper. The Puffy Royal mattress has a ‘cooling bed infused top layer’ for an even cooler sleep experience that’s infused with cooling beads that disseminate heat, scoring a 2-10 on the coolness level with 1 being the coldest.
Pressure Relief
Pressure relief is among the most important things for me when choosing a mattress because I really need to be able to have my aches and pains be improved when I sleep, not get worse! And I really felt like it helped me, especially in my back so I’ll give the Puffy mattress a 9/10 on pressure relief. The Puffy Lux and Puffy Royal mattresses both have exclusive layers built into the mattress that help further enhance pressure relief.
Responsiveness
The mattress is fairly responsive, which is particularly great for couples who share the bed. And the firmness of the mattress also ensures that you won’t feel like you’re sinking in either.
Motion Isolation
I performed the classic glass of water test on the Puffy mattress to check out the motion isolation of it and I was seriously impressed – especially since I performed the test with a rather tall glass of water. I placed the glass on one side of the bed and went to sit on the other, and there was no movement at all even when I tried sitting even further. 10/10 for motion transfer on this mattress.
Edge Support
I sat pretty much on the edge of the mattress to see if I felt like I might fall off, and I didn’t feel like I was about to in the least bit. The mattress really supported my entire body, so I’ll give it somewhere between 8.5-9.5 on edge support. This is likely due to the adaptive support of the mattress and comfort layers.
Construction
Puffy utilizes a patented multi-layer design formulated and imbued with DeepSleep technology. While the price difference between Puffy and Puffy Lux is fairly large, the differences in construction and materials aren’t too significant. The Puffy has three layers and the Puffy Lux has four layers, including a Cloud Foam layer for extra comfort, adaptive support, and body contouring.
The Puffy Royal mattress, however, does depart from Puffy’s other two mattresses, offering a significantly enhanced sleep experience. It features five layers, four of which are exclusive to the Royal and are detailed below. It’s worth mentioning that all Puffy mattresses are CertiPUR-US certified and no harmful chemicals are used during any stage of the manufacturing process.
Cooling Cloud Foam Layer
The top layer of the mattress is responsible for body contouring and pressure point relief, as well as supporting neutral spine position. It’s also highly breathable, allowing it to keep body temperature at an optimal degree and preventing uneasiness during sleep.
Body Adapting Dual Cloud Foam Layer (Exclusive to Puffy Lux)
This layer, which is exclusive to Lux, features all the benefits of the single Cloud Comfort Layer, but with an extra two inches of memory foam, the support and contouring effects are technically doubled. Working together with the Cooling Cloud Layer, the Comfort Layer further enhances pressure point relief.
Cooling Bead-Infused Top Layer (Exclusive to Puffy Royal)
For an even cooler sleep experience, the Puffy Royal features a 1.5-inch top layer infused with cooling beads that disseminate heat to facilitate consistent and comfortable sleep.
Reflexive Pressure Relief Transition Layer (Exclusive to Puffy Royal)
The Royal’s second layer is two inches of premium reflexive foam that adjusts to the shape of your body to relieve pressure. This layer is particularly appealing for side sleepers who need a mattress that caters to high-pressure zones like the shoulders and hips.
Sectional Cloud Technology (Exclusive to Puffy Royal)
Like all the most advanced luxury mattresses, the Puffy Royal offers zoned support. The mattress is separated into five zones that provide customized support to the spine, and targeting the back, head, neck, shoulders, and feet.
ClimateComfort Foam
The ClimateComfort Layer protects both the mattress and sleepers from temperature fluctuations by heating up when it’s cold and cooling itself when it’s hot. This adaptive mechanism allows for much better sleep with fewer disturbances, and also counters seasonal contraction and expansion, improving the longevity of the mattress.
Heat-Regulating SMT Layer (Exclusive to Puffy Royal)
Just atop of the base layer of the Puffy Royal is a unique cloud-designed SMT (surface-mount technology) layer that tackles heat regulation. It minimizes heat absorption to create optimized airflow throughout the mattress for sustained deep sleep.
Firm Core Support Layer
The six-inch core support layer makes for a firm foundation that enhances spinal support and improves pressure point relief. In addition to providing firm support, this layer adapts to the sleeper’s body shape as well, without impeding the blood circulation and thus allowing for less-disruptive tossing and turning during sleep.
Puffy Lux mattress layers
Mattress cover
All Puffy mattresses come with brand new covers made from top quality materials. The cover is removable and machine washable. It is also inboarded waterproof, meaning that no liquid (sweat, oil, spills, etc.) can enter the mattress and damage it from the inside.
Adjustable beds
The Puffy Adjustable Base is designed for all types of mattresses, including foam, latex, innerspring, and hybrid. It comes with dual massages zones and 3-speed vibrating motors to target your head, shoulders, and legs for ultimate relaxation. Find your three favorite positions and program them with your wireless remote so you can find them again with the touch of a button. The head of the bed raises to a 65° incline, while the foot of the bed raises to 45° for Zero-Gravity support. Finally, the base is equipped with under-bed lighting, 2 USB charging ports, and adjustable legs for extra storage.
Puffy’s adjustable base comes with a 101-night trial, a lifetime warranty, and free shipping. It has a base height of 10.5” to 16”, is available in light gray and dark gray, and comes in four sizes.
Adjustable Bed Prices:
- The Twin XL adjustable bed measures 38” x 80” and costs $1,195.
- The Full adjustable bed measures 54” x 75” and costs $1,295.
- The Queen adjustable bed measures 60” x 80” and costs $1,395.
- The Split King adjustable bed measures 76” x 80” (2 pieces) and costs $2,095.
Mattress toppers
The Puffy Topper is one of the most cost-effective ways to add a few extra inches to your mattress. Available in several sizes and two firmness levels, this durable, supportive, and cooling topper even comes with a 101 Night Sleep Trial, which is a common feature with mattresses but relatively rare with mattress toppers.
The chemical-free, hypoallergenic Puffy Topper uses a mixture of bamboo and polyester to create a cooling, soft, and breathable product. The manufacturers are so confident that this product will stay the distance that they have added a lifetime warranty to all purchases. Furthermore, it can be shipped directly to your door completely free of charge! Prices for the topper range from $175 to $245, depending on which size you choose.
Delivery process
The whole process is highly straightforward. The mattress is sold exclusively online and is delivered to your doorstep free of charge. The same is true for returns. If any discounts or coupons are available, they can be easily applied during checkout. Shipping is free in the US and customers get a 101 night trial period with each Puffy mattress. If you decide you don’t like the mattress, contact Puffy for a refund and to facilitate the return.
On the downside, Puffy doesn’t offer installation or white glove delivery options, nor does it remove your old mattress. Keep this in mind when considering your options. Financing is available by choosing Affirm at checkout.
Customer Service
When it comes to customer support, the Puffy team does a solid job. You can contact Puffy via email, phone, a ticketing option on their website, or live chat. Puffy customer service is available 7 days a week to answer your queries.

Puffy mattress
I purchased it for my wife. As she's confined to bed the mattress on the hospital bed has been causing pressure sores left and right. And in three night on the puffy mattress it is now healing well. And my wife says it is very comfortable. So I went and ordered one fr myself. Unfortunately I have to be in a separate bed
Mattress
