Our Verdict

Nectar Premier

Tuft and Needle Mint

The Tuft and Needle Mint is better for most people than the Nectar Premier. Both are all-foam 'Medium' mattresses, but the Tuft and Needle offers better support for average and heavier individuals and better pressure relief for lighter individuals. Its edges are also much sturdier. The Nectar's upper comfort layers are more contouring, which you might prefer if you like the way memory foam molds around you.
