Biggest reason I wanted to write a review here is to let people know to give the mattress at least 2 weeks to break in, and for your body to adjust to it.
The first 3 nights or so I was regretting my purchase and disappointed, thinking I’d most likely have to return this bed. But I found the little pamphlet that comes in the box that I had not seen initially where Tuft & Needle recommend giving it at least 2 weeks for your body to adjust. So I thought yea might as well give it some time.
Quite literally within 2 weeks I was getting better sleep and enjoying the feel of the mattress much more. And with each night honestly it’s gotten better and better as my body is getting used to the mattress and the mattress breaks in more.
It’s definitely on the firmer side, so note that. BUT there is a softness there as well that forms very nicely to my body. I’m growing to appreciate the support of the firmness mixed with the subtle softness that cradles me. I am a female at 5’4 height and 120 lbs. My partner is 6 ft and about 210 lbs.
For my partner, he loved the bed from the first night he slept on it / he adjusted very quickly. For me since I’m lighter I needed time for my body to weigh into the bed more so I can feel that soft middle layer supporting me. I actually had him sleep on my side a few nights to break the bed in faster!
It was most difficult to adjust to sleeping on my back. This mattress works well for side sleepers. Both my partner and I are combination / back and side sleepers. I sometimes lie on my stomach too.
I think overall this bed is great for couples, and for a foam mattress, the edge support is awesome / it doesn’t feel like you’re gonna fall off when laying on the very edge, even for my partner who is a pretty big guy.
I’m really liking the bed now though and am happy with my purchase/ will not be returning! :)

Tuft & Needle and I have a different definition of the word Medium
After needing to purchase a new pillow back in 2018, I ended up purchasing the King Tuft & Needle Foam Pillow. It ended up being the best pillow I've ever purchased and five years later has still held up. My Novaform Serafina mattress purchased from Costco back in 2014 is no longer in the same shape it was at the time of purchased, so I was waiting for Prime Day to occur to pull the trigger on a new mattress. After the experience with my Tuft & Needle Foam Pillow, I was gunning for a Tuft & Needle mattress. After doing research and reviews, it seems the Mint was the way to between the major three (original, Mint, and Hybrid) based upon it being the least firm ("stiff") of the three. Prime Day occurred, massive discounts on Tuft & Needle mattresses, and I pulled the trigger on the Mint. The mattress is okay. My Novaform Serafina mattress was labeled as "medium" whereas the Mint is labeled the same, but definitely feels more "medium firm." There's a clear difference between the two. Where as I like sinking into the mattress, you don't have that luxury with the Mint. Don't get me wrong, the Mint is a comfortable mattress; but it's not what I expected it to be - especially as a side sleeper. Doing some additional research after my indifference on the mattress, I came across information on the r/Mattress subreddit that the fact Tuft & Needle will provide you with a topper to persuade you not to return the mattress. But here's the key as I discovered from Tuft & Needle's great customer support: if you purchase the mattress directly from Tuft & Needle, they will provide you the topper at no charge. If you purchase the mattress from a third-party such as Amazon, they'll give you a 50% off discount off the topper. Purchasing the mattress topper at half off still ended up coming in at a cheaper price point than what Tuft & Needle was selling the 2020 Mint mattress at, so I still came out on top. The comments in that particular reddit thread said the Mint was a good mattress, but adding the topper made it a great mattress. I'd have to agree - the topper is a definite night and day difference. It helps the dimensions of the topper match that of the Mint, so with sheets on, you'd never realize you have a topper on your mattress. With that being said - 1. Why can't Tuft & Needle make a 14" mattress, putting the foam in the topper right at the top of the mattress (and keeping the remaining 12" the same as the Mint or Hybrid)? 2. Why didn't I just buy a cheaper mattress alongside the topper (at full price)? Would I end up at the same result? In its current state, I'm most likely going to keep the Mint + mattress topper as it's still a grand less than other alternatives I was looking at (mostly the Helix Luxe line-up). I would just like to put that word of forewarning up. If you like your mattresses more on the firm side, you'll probably love the Mint. If you need something more plush, look at a different manufactuer.
