How it Works
You can order your Nectar mattress on the company’s website. Just select your mattress size and decide whether you need a new foundation or if your current base is in good shape. You can purchase the Nectar Foundation for only $250 for a queen size.
Pay for your mattress in full or break down the payments with financing. Your mattress will be delivered in about a week, compressed in a box. Unbox your new Nectar mattress and start sleeping better that same night.
It’s typical for online mattress companies to offer home trials, but in Nectar’s case it offers an industry leading, 365-night trial. You’ll have a full year to decide whether or not the mattress suits you.
Nectar also guarantees a “Forever Warranty.” For the first 10 years of ownership, it will replace your mattress with a new one at no charge if the original one is defective. From year 10 and on, the company will repair or replace your mattress if a defect can be proved. The Forever Warranty also includes the “Choice Option” which allows you to keep a defective Nectar mattress instead of having it replaced, and to purchase a brand new one for 50% off the original price. Nectar offers free shipping and returns to the continental United States, and at additional cost to Alaska and Hawaii.
Mattress Makeup
Nectar mattresses are made up of 4 foam layers, topped by a bedbug-resistant Tencel cooling cover to help circulate air and wick away heat while you sleep. From top to bottom, the foam layers are: quilted gel memory foam, to provide loft and increased air circulation; gel memory foam, which distributes your weight evenly, and relieves pressure and pain; adaptive hi-core memory foam to support your body; and breathable base layer to reinforce the contouring and support layers.
The foams are certified by CertiPUR-US, meaning they are made without ozone depleters, PBDE flame retardants, formaldehyde, mercury, lead and other heavy metals, and with only phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The top layer is OEKO-TEX Standard 100, Class 1 certified, so it’s safe for babies and children.
The mattresses are designed to go with virtually any type of bed base, including box springs, divan bases, traditional frames, adjustable bases, and platform or floor bases.
Delivery
Nectar delivers your new mattress to your home, compressed in a box. You can easily unbox the mattress yourself or opt for white glove delivery. With Nectar’s white glove delivery, a team will set up your new mattress and remove your existing mattress if necessary.
Nectar ships for free to the continental US. It can ship to Alaska or Hawaii at an additional shipping cost.
Testimonials
This mattress really is the real deal! I ordered it and loved it. Very simple to unpack and set up. I let it breathe and air out for 24 hours. After that the mattress will be ready for a perfect night’s sleep. I wasn’t a believer at first, but honestly this really is a great mattress! Try it for a few weeks and let it change your life.

I am about 6”3’, 205 lbs and sleep on my back, occasionally on my stomach. My wife is about 5”5’, 115 lbs and only sleeps on her side. About a year ago we were looking for a new mattress and I did about 2 months of thorough research before deciding on the Nectar (King size). We had a queen spring mattress on which I slept truly awful, partially because we needed more room but mostly because the bed was just uncomfortable. I keep a mental list of best things I’ve ever paid for in terms of value, impact, quality, etc. and this is top 3 for sure. Seriously changed our lives. We are beyond the honeymoon period with the mattress, we’ve had it for about a year, so we’ve had plenty of nights sleeping on it and opportunity to find fault. Over the past year we’ve slept on a number of other mattresses (friends, family, 3-5 star hotels) and we always sleep better on our Nectar mattress. This is not just a matter of being in a comfortable atmosphere at home, our mattress is just more comfortable. Period.

This mattress is soft yet surprisingly firm, price is great too. We compared online mattresses and ultimately decided on the Nectar due to the 365-night trial and strong warranty. The mattress arrived as described and the bag with handles was a nice feature as it was king and we needed to carry it up a flight of stairs.

Bottom Line
The Nectar is notably versatile for a budget brand, with suitability for most types of sleepers and the ability to be used with most types of bed bases. It’s also hard to ignore the 365-night trial – which is enough time for even the most non-committal of buyers to decide whether or not it is the right mattress for them.
