Best Mattresses Made in the USA

With a wide variety of mattresses available on the market, choosing the right one can pose a challenge. There are multiple factors to consider when shopping for a mattress, including materials, construction, pricing, firmness level, and size. Another important consideration is the origin of the mattress.

Customers who live in the United States may receive a mattress made in the U.S. more quickly than products manufactured outside the country, especially if the mattress is made on demand. Domestically produced mattresses may also spend less time sitting in a warehouse or packed up in plastic.

U.S.-based shoppers concerned with environmental impacts may also prefer to purchase a mattress made in the U.S. to reduce carbon emissions during the shipping process. Others may opt to purchase locally to support their city, state, or regional economy; to ensure they’re buying from a properly regulated work environment; or because they believe U.S. products to be of high quality due to strict manufacturing regulations.

We’ve compiled a list of the best mattresses made in the USA, along with information about their materials, performance, pricing, and more. We also provide tips on what to look for in American-made mattresses and explain which certifications are most important.

Product Details

The WinkBed is one of the most versatile, U.S.-made mattresses our team has tested firsthand. This foam hybrid is available in four firmness levels to accommodate different people based on their body type and primary sleep position. A sturdy support system and breathable cover round out the appealing design.

Three firmness options are available for standard WinkBed models. These mattresses contain a layer of plush polyfoam sewn to the bottom of the Euro-top cover, followed by a second polyfoam layer for additional cushioning. Our side and back sleepers under 130 pounds felt most comfortable on the medium soft (4) WinkBed, which contours closely to the body. Heavier testers who use these positions — as well as stomach sleepers up to 230 pounds — preferred the medium firm (6) and firm (7) models.

You can also choose the WinkBed Plus (8), a variation specifically designed for people who weigh more than 230 pounds. These models swap out the second polyfoam layer for zoned latex that feels firmer and more supportive around the midsection. All versions of the WinkBed are constructed with zoned pocketed coils that also reinforce the chest, stomach, and hips — areas of the body where people tend to carry extra weight.

A cover made of moisture-wicking Tencel fabric encases the mattress. This material helps cool off the WinkBed’s surface, while the coils promote steady airflow to maintain a comfortable interior temperature. While each firmness level has unique strengths, our team found that all versions of the WinkBed provide excellent overall temperature regulation.

The WinkBed Plus costs slightly more than standard WinkBed models, but all are within the average range for hybrid mattresses and shipping is free within the contiguous U.S. Your order includes a 120-night trial period. If you aren’t satisfied with your initial firmness selection, WinkBed allows you to exchange the mattress for a softer or firmer model at no extra cost, and the replacement comes with its own 60-night trial. A lifetime warranty covers structural defects in your mattress as long as you retain original ownership.

The Dreamfoam Essential by Brooklyn Bedding is an all-foam model available in five different profiles, each with a distinct firmness level. Affordable pricing and generous sizing options sweeten the deal for customers with unique sleeping arrangements. 

Depending on your chosen model, the thickness of the comfort system and support core varies. The 6-, 8-, and 10-inch models all feature thinner layers of gel-infused memory foam that adapts to the body and alleviates pressure points. Meanwhile, the 12- and 14-inch models feature gel-infused memory foam over a layer of polyfoam for extra cushioning. All models feature a high-density polyfoam support core that reinforces the sleep surface. 

Each model falls at a different level on our 10-point firmness scale. The 6-, 8-, and 10-inch models have firmer feels that fall at extra firm (8), firm (7), and medium firm (6), respectively. The 12-inch model has a medium (5) feel, and the 14-inch falls at a medium soft (4). Every model performed differently during our hands-on tests. Our side sleepers enjoyed the thicker models for their enhanced cushioning, while back and stomach sleepers generally preferred the firmer models. The 10-inch medium firm mattress earned the highest ratings across sleeping positions thanks to its balanced feel. 

All-foam constructions helped every model isolate motion very well, especially the 10-inch model and thicker profiles. Those looking for better temperature control or edge support may prefer the thinner models since they don’t adapt as closely to the body. Most models earned higher ratings in our pressure relief tests, making them great options if you tend to wake up with sore spots in your joints or lower back. 

The Dreamfoam Essential comes with free shipping and a 90-night sleep trial. During the trial, you may test the mattress and return it for a full refund. The mattress is backed by a 10-year warranty against structural defects.

The Saatva Classic is a coil-on-coil innerspring mattress that combines multiple layers of foam and coils, creating a responsive but breathable bed. It features a polyfoam pillow-top, a memory foam lumbar pad, and pocketed 14.5-gauge microcoils, along with a support core of 13-gauge hourglass coils.

The dual-coil design and soft cotton cover encourage breathability, making this mattress a good choice for hot sleepers. Its coil-based construction also adds the edge support and bounce necessary for sleepers to move across the bed easily. With proper care, this bed’s durable, supportive construction should provide many years of comfort.

The Saatva Classic is available with firmness levels of soft (3), medium firm (6), or firm (8) and heights of 11.5 or 14.5 inches. It comes in twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, split king, California king, and split California king sizes.

The mattress comes with a lifetime limited warranty and a 365-night sleep trial. The company offers free White Glove delivery within the contiguous U.S., which means a professional will deliver the mattress and set it up in your home. Saatva will also collect your old mattress and foundation for disposal.

The Layla Hybrid is flippable, allowing sleepers to choose between a medium soft (4) and a firm (7) side. Our testing found this design comfortable for a wide variety of sleepers. 

The medium soft side features thicker comfort layers of copper gel-infused memory foam and polyfoam that adapt to the body to relieve pressure. The two sides share a pocketed coil support core, and the firm side features thinner foam layers for slight surface cushioning. Both sides have a soft polyester, rayon, viscose, and poly-lycra cover. The softer side’s cover has a light gray hexagon pattern, while the firm side is dark gray.

The softer side of the mattress offered the best pressure relief and support to our side sleepers under 130 pounds, who found they could comfortably sink into the surface. Meanwhile, the firm side offers excellent support for stomach and back sleepers who weigh at least 130 pounds.

Since this mattress’ firmness level can change depending on the side used, it’s a great option for Airbnb owners and people who want to experiment with different firmness levels. It also provides very good motion isolation, which is useful for couples who want to sleep next to each other undisturbed. Additionally, its construction and materials provide very good temperature neutrality, especially for beds with foam layers.

The USA-made mattress is available in twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and California king sizes. Layla knows the importance of having the best pillows, so buyers receive two free pillows in addition to free shipping within the contiguous U.S. Layla also offers a 120-night sleep trial and a 10-year warranty.

Helix Sleep offers a diverse line of hybrid mattresses, each of which is designed for certain body type and sleep position combos. The Helix Midnight is geared toward side sleepers between 130 and 230 pounds. That said, our hands-on tests show the Midnight’s balanced design and medium firm (6) feel may appeal to a wider swath of sleepers.

The mattress begins with a memory foam comfort layer, followed by a polyfoam transitional layer. These components contour moderately and evenly to distribute your weight, promote even alignment, and reduce pressure in the shoulders, lower back, and hips. Pocketed coils and high-density base foam make up the support core. The coils are reinforced along the perimeter, resulting in strong pushback when you sleep close to the edges or get in and out of bed.

During our tests, the Midnight’s most favorable ratings came from side sleepers between 130 and 230 pounds, and back and stomach sleepers under 130 pounds. However, testers across all three position groups up to 230 pounds found the mattress comfortable and sufficiently supportive. Our tests also indicate the Midnight regulates temperature well. This can be attributed to steady air circulation through the coil system and a breathable, knit cover.

The Midnight’s sticker price falls well below average and ground shipping is free for customers in all 50 states, so this mattress is a good option if you’re shopping on a tight budget. You’ll also receive a sleep trial with your order that runs for 100 nights. If you decide to keep your Midnight, Helix Sleep further backs your purchase with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty.

If you wake up feeling sore or stiff, your mattress may be a primary culprit. Sleep surfaces that don’t cushion the body and evenly distribute your weight can create pressure buildup in areas like the neck, shoulders, lower back, and hips. The Bear Elite Hybrid is a mattress designed to mitigate this issue. You can choose from three firmness levels based on your weight and sleep position, and a zoned transitional layer pushes back against areas of the body with disproportionate amounts of weight.

The Elite Hybrid begins with a memory foam comfort layer. A copper fiber infusion helps offset the foam’s heat-retaining properties, so the surface should remain relatively cool. Convoluted polyfoam forms the transitional layer. This component is divided into five firmness zones with extra reinforcement for the midsection and a gentler feel elsewhere.

The support core contains pocketed coils designed to move independently from one another, resulting in strong support without excessive motion transfer. Thicker coils line the perimeter to push back against your weight when you lie near the edges of the mattress or get in and out of bed. High-density base foam completes the hybrid design, and a cover made of heat-dissipating Celliant-blend fabric encases the entire mattress.

You can choose between medium (5), medium firm (6), and firm (8) designs for your Elite Hybrid, each with unique strengths. Our testing showed the medium feel was best suited to side and back sleepers weighing less than 130 pounds. This design contours closely to cushion the body, and may sink excessively beneath people who weigh more. The ultra-supportive firm feel was most popular among our side sleepers weighing more than 230 pounds, back sleepers of at least 130 pounds, and stomach sleepers between 130 and 230 pounds. If you’re looking for a balance of cushioning and support, the medium firm feel should be a good fit.

The mattress is available in seven sizes, including a split king for couples who share adjustable beds. If you and your partner have contrasting firmness preferences, you can order a split king with a different feel on each side. Bear offers free shipping throughout the contiguous U.S. Each order comes with a 120-night sleep trial, and the mattress is further backed by a lifetime warranty.

This 12-inch all-foam mattress features the company’s own creation called AirFoam. The high-resilience AirFoam is intended to add breathability for a cooler sleep experience while effectively cushioning high-pressure areas of the body. The bed’s comfort system layers 2.5 inches of plush AirFoam over 1.5 inches of polyfoam and another 1-inch layer of firmer AirFoam for a responsive but supportive feel. The mattress’ support core is made with 7 inches of high-density polyfoam.

An ivory-colored organic cotton cover contributes to the mattress’ breathability. For hot sleepers who like the feel of a responsive foam bed, this mattress may offer a great option.

The all-foam Nolah Signature 12’s medium (5) firmness level offers a combination of support and pressure relief to back, side, and stomach sleepers weighing less than 130 pounds. Back and stomach sleepers weighing more than 130 pounds, however, may prefer a firmer foam mattress or may want to try another style of mattress, such as a hybrid or innerspring.

Nolah includes a lifetime limited warranty and a 120-night sleep trial with each mattress purchase, and the company offers free shipping and returns within the contiguous U.S.

Nolah manufactures its mattresses in eight factories located in the U.S. using American-made materials. It takes about a week for the company to create a mattress before shipping it via FedEx. After a mattress ships, deliveries generally take 1 to 4 business days.

Many associate pain and pressure relief with soft, adaptive mattresses. This may be true for some people, but others need a firmer, more responsive surface with gentle contouring to experience less discomfort. The latter are good candidates for the Birch Mattress, a medium firm (6) latex hybrid that cradles the body while pushing back against the sleeper’s weight. The result is a very balanced feel for those who need extra support from their sleep surface.

The mattress begins with wool and rayon batting sewn into the cover. This material serves as a fire barrier and also has moisture-wicking properties to help you stay dry. A second batting layer contains pure, GOTS-certified organic wool for added cooling. Talalay latex is used in the comfort system, giving the Birch considerable bounce on the surface. The latex is certified by the Rainforest Alliance, ensuring the rubber trees used to produce the latex are sustainably grown.

The support core contains pocketed coils over a second wool-rayon fire barrier layer. The coils are zoned with extra perimeter reinforcement, so you should feel stable lying near the edges of the mattress or getting in and out of bed. Steady air currents flow through the coils to help the interior maintain a comfortable temperature, and the latex is ventilated for extra airflow near the surface. Even by latex hybrid standards, the mattress sleeps exceptionally cool. Our tests show the Birch’s mid-range feel is best suited to people weighing 130 to 230 pounds across all position groups. Heavier side sleepers and lighter back and stomach sleepers may also find the mattress comfortable.

The Birch’s price-point falls below that of the average hybrid model and shipping is free to all 50 states. Each order comes with a sleep trial spanning 100 nights, and those who choose to keep their mattress also receive a 25-year warranty.

This firm (8) mattress’ durable construction and supportive coils offer excellent support to sleepers weighing more than 230 pounds, no matter their preferred sleeping position. Its hybrid design promotes breathability, creating a cool sleep experience, and it’s a good choice for active sleepers, who will be able to move easily across the Titan Plus’s responsive surface.

Despite its ability to provide a bouncy, easy-to-navigate surface and above-average edge support, this mattress also offers good motion isolation, making it a good option for couples or those who share a bed with a pet or child.

The mattress is constructed with a 1-inch top comfort layer of gel-infused memory foam over a 2-inch layer of TitanFlex foam that adds cushioning and responsiveness to the bed, while 6 inches of individually wrapped pocketed coils and an additional 2 inches of high-density polyfoam create a sturdy support core.

For those concerned about sleeping warm despite the mattress’ breathability, the company offers an optional cooling top panel, which can be sewn into the surface of the mattress for an additional charge.

This bed is available exclusively on Brooklyn Bedding’s website. Shoppers can choose a twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, or split California king mattress size. The Titan Plus is made to order in Brooklyn Bedding’s Arizona factory and shipped in a box. The company offers free shipping and returns to customers in the contiguous U.S. Each mattress also includes a 10-year limited warranty and a 120-night sleep trial.

The Nest Bedding Owl is a latex and foam hybrid that offers an excellent balance of cushioning for pressure points and responsive support. Side sleepers and people with persistent pressure buildup on our team found the mattress significantly reduced aches in pains in their joints and lower back. 

A pillow-top quilted with organic cotton and wool gives the surface a plush hand feel, and the materials’ natural breathability helps regulate temperature. Also in the pillow-top is a layer of polyfoam that adapts to your body to relieve pressure buildup. Underneath is a thicker layer of Dunlop latex that enhances pressure relief without causing your body to sink too deeply. 

Pocketed coils make up the support core. The coils are individually wrapped, allowing them to provide targeted support to heavier areas of the body. A perimeter reinforcement strengthens the edges of the mattress. The coils rest on a base layer of polyfoam to prevent shifting. A breathable organic cotton and wool cover encases the mattress. 

Three firmness options are available: soft (3), medium (5), and firm (7). Our in-house testing found the softest option best for side sleepers weighing less than 130 pounds, who appreciated the extra cushioning. The medium feel earned its highest marks from most of our side and back sleepers weighing up to 230 pounds. Our back and stomach sleepers enjoyed the firmest model’s enhanced support. 

Like many mattresses with latex comfort layers, the Owl earned high ratings in our temperature control tests. The cotton and wool layers kept the surface cool, while the coils encouraged steady internal airflow. Our heat guns detected minimal heat buildup, and our hot-sleeping testers felt comfortable. Combination sleepers may also enjoy the mattress thanks to the responsive feel, which should make it easy for them to move throughout the night. 

Nest Bedding offers free shipping to customers living in the contiguous U.S. You get 365 nights to try out the mattress and return it for a full refund. If you keep the mattress past the trial period, it is backed by a lifetime warranty.

How to Choose a Mattress Made in the USA

When choosing a mattress made in the USA, it’s important to consider the design, materials, pricing, and performance of the product. Other considerations include the company’s policies, such as trial periods and warranties, as well as your sleep needs and lifestyle.

If you plan to purchase the mattress in a store, you’ll need to find a company with a location nearby. However, many U.S. companies provide free shipping on beds purchased within the contiguous United States, making ordering mattresses from other areas of the country convenient and affordable.

What to Look For in a Mattress

When shopping for a mattress, we encourage you to pay attention to the specific details of each model instead of just the marketing materials from the mattress company, which can be vague and misleading.

We also urge you to consider your bed preferences. If you already have a specific material you prefer, such as memory foam or latex, it will narrow your search and save time.

To make your purchasing decision easier, we’ve put together a list of the top things to look for when buying an American-made bed. When searching for your ideal mattress, these factors will help ensure you get a quality product that meets your unique needs while fitting within your budget.

Price
Pricing is an important factor in any mattress purchasing decision, and models vary widely in cost. A mattress’ pricing generally hinges on its design, features, materials, size, and where it’s made.

Mattresses made in the USA may come at a higher price tag than those made in other countries, due to higher labor costs, the use of high-quality materials, and more stringent safety and environmental regulations. However, many shoppers prefer U.S.-made mattresses because higher local wages and stricter regulations support the health and safety of their community and local economy.

Sleeping Position
Mattresses perform differently depending on your specific sleep style. You should consider if you sleep on your side, stomach, back, or a combination of the three. It’s essential that shoppers look for a mattress designed to accommodate their preferred sleep position.

For example, memory foam mattresses generally aren’t the best choice for stomach sleepers, who often require the firmer support of a hybrid or innerspring mattress. However, memory foam models may offer a side sleeper excellent pressure relief.

Quality Materials
The materials used in a bed’s design determine its breathability, supportiveness, firmness level, pricing, ease of cleaning, and durability.

Shoppers may benefit from researching a company’s policies on material sourcing. Some companies make an effort to source their materials locally, which may be preferable to people who want to support American jobs or limit their carbon footprint with local-only purchases.

For those seeking a USA-made product, it’s important to clarify that the bed is actually made in the U.S. instead of simply assembled there. To do so, look for the terminology “Made in USA” instead of “Assembled in the USA.”

Firmness Level
The firmness level of a mattress plays an important role in how it supports a sleeper. A softer mattress may provide excellent pressure relief and support to a side sleeper, while a firm mattress might help a stomach sleeper maintain proper posture.

If you aren’t sure which firmness level works best for you, you may want to visit a mattress store to try out several options in person.

Pressure Relief
If a mattress doesn’t support a sleeper correctly, it can lead to an uncomfortable sleep experience, along with aches upon waking. A mattress with good pressure relief limits stress on key points of the body, such as the hips and shoulders.

Motion Isolation
For those who share the bed, a mattress with good motion isolation helps prevent sleep disturbances when their partner moves around or gets in and out of bed. Mattresses that contain memory foam often perform very well in this category.

Temperature Regulation
Many people tend to overheat while sleeping. To maintain a comfortable temperature, shoppers should look for a mattress with good temperature regulation.

Mattresses that regulate temperature well typically include breathable materials and a construction that promotes adequate airflow. Generally, coil-based beds offer better airflow, while all-foam mattresses, especially those with thick or dense memory foam layers, tend to trap heat.

Edge Support
Edge support allows people to sit or sleep on the edge of a mattress without experiencing significant sagging. Those who like to sleep toward the edge of the bed, or people who have trouble getting in and out of bed, may prefer a mattress with good edge support. Many mattresses include reinforced edges to prevent sinkage along the perimeter of the mattress.

Contouring
Contouring refers to how well a mattress conforms to the shape of the sleeper’s body. Materials with high point elasticity such as memory foam typically contour better than other materials like polyfoam.

Mattress Type
The type of mattress a shopper chooses can change their entire sleep experience, so it’s vital that you put careful thought into the design that’s best for you. Most sleepers can find a suitable bed among the three most common types: foam, innerspring, and hybrid.

Why Buy a Mattress Made in the USA?

When deciding whether to purchase a mattress made internationally or one manufactured in the U.S., there are many reasons to opt for the American-made mattress.

For example, you may want to contribute to your local economy and support businesses that provide good working conditions for employees. You also may wish to limit environmental impacts by buying from American companies that won’t need to ship your mattress overseas, thus reducing their carbon footprint.

Finally, you may prefer a product that has spent less time sitting in a warehouse, or you may want to take advantage of American manufacturing standards, which can affect the safety, environmental impacts, and quality of the product.

Manufacturing Standards
Products sold in the U.S. must meet multiple safety, environmental, and quality standards. In addition, the employer must follow certain guidelines regarding workplace practices.

In order to manufacture products in the USA, companies must adhere to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards and other labor laws that ensure a safe and fair workplace.

They also must follow safety standards provided by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, which include regulations on chemicals used during manufacturing and the flammability of the product.

Finally, America’s environmental regulations are stricter than those in many other parts of the world, giving buyers peace of mind that their product is being manufactured with less of an impact to the environment.

Working Conditions
Under laws created by the U.S. government, all workers have the right to a safe workplace.

OSHA was created to enforce worker safety standards. In order to meet OSHA’s standards, workplaces must follow safety regulations that require eliminating or reducing hazards.

For example, employers must use the safest chemicals feasibly possible to create products. They must also provide proper protective equipment for employees, such as gloves and masks, when necessary.

Employers in the U.S. must also follow labor laws that ensure products aren’t made using child labor or by employees making less than the minimum wage.

Buying Local
Buying American-made products can stimulate the region’s economy, create new jobs for the community you live in, and improve quality of life for local workers. When people shop locally it also supports the overall U.S. economy.

Less Time Packed Up & Vacuum Sealed
When you buy a product made locally, it often spends less time sitting in a warehouse or vacuum sealed in plastic.

Some American-based brands even forgo the mattress compression process entirely, meaning there should be no chemical smell of a new mattress when you receive it.

Carbon Footprint & Environmental Manufacturing Processes
Products made and shipped close to home likely won’t spend as much time in transit, which can help reduce carbon output during the shipping process.

In addition, shoppers can look for American manufacturers that attempt to reduce their environmental impact in other ways.

To find those manufacturers, look for third-party certifications that show a company’s dedication to sustainability and sourcing environmentally friendly materials, such as the American Sustainable Business Council, Green America, or USDA Organic.

How Can You Tell if a Mattress Is Made in the USA?

Most companies manufacturing mattresses in the USA advertise that fact, since many shoppers prefer an American-made product.

To comply with Federal Trade Commission standards, a product marketed as being “American-made” or “Made in USA” must be “all or virtually all” manufactured in the U.S. However, the FTC does not certify companies’ claims, and no preapproval is required before a company can advertise its products as USA-made.

Most companies will include information on where a mattress is made either on the product page or “about us” page on the company website. Shoppers can also contact most companies directly for information on the manufacturing process.

Keep an Eye Out for These Mattress Certifications

Purchasing a mattress manufactured in the U.S. gives many shoppers peace of mind. Since the mattress and the company’s manufacturing process must meet government standards while adhering to strict regulations, a certain level of quality is ensured.

However, for shoppers in search of a top-quality mattress that meets high environmental standards, third-party certifications can provide an additional layer of quality control.

CertiPUR-US: The CertiPUR-US certification provides assurance that foams are made without heavy metals, ozone depleters, formaldehyde, certain flame retardants, or phthalates regulated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Additionally, this certification indicates low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions for indoor air quality.

Eco-conscious shoppers may prefer a mattress with this certification to ensure it is held to standards that go above and beyond government regulations.

OEKO-TEX Standard 100: The OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification ensures that a product has been tested for a variety of harmful substances and poses no harm to human health.The testing goes beyond what’s mandated in government regulations, and the certification holds products to strict health and safety requirements and quality assurance standards.

GREENGUARD Gold: The GREENGUARD Gold certification provides independent verification that a product does not impact indoor air quality in a way that negatively affects human health. The GREENGUARD Gold certification has even stricter standards than the regular GREENGUARD certification, which ensures that products used indoors meet chemical emissions standards.

The criteria for a GREENGUARD Gold certification is more stringent because it takes into account the needs of sensitive individuals, such as seniors and children. Products that are GREENGUARD Gold certified can be used in health care facilities and schools without concern for the impact to air quality.
