Key Differences

  • Loom and Leaf is more of a luxury mattress
  • Loom and Leaf has memory foam in its comfort layer; T&N has polyfoam
  • The L&L has a slow-moving, memory foam feel; T&N has a more resilient foam feel
  • T&N ships free in a box; L&L has a shipping charge but with white-glove delivery
  • Loom and Leaf is in a higher price range than Tuft And Needle

Construction/Feel

Loom and Leaf is a memory foam mattress in its truest sense.  It has two layers of memory foam in its comfort layer.  The feel is slow-moving, similar to the Tempur-Pedic feel many people know of.  You sink into the mattress just a little bit, but the mattress is more resilient than most memory foam mattresses.  The mattress uses durable foams that should last a long time.

See the feel of the Loom & Leaf in the video below

Tuft and Needle is all polyfoam.  It is 3” of 3 lb. density polyfoam over 7” of 1.8 lb. density polyfoam.  To me, you sink into the mattress just a little bit, but it’s a little bit firmer than the L&L relaxed firm.  It is fairly resilient, more so than the L&L.  It sleeps fairly cool and does a pretty good job with motion transfer.

The Loom and Leaf definitely has a more luxury feel to it.  They pulled out all the bells and whistles with its construction.  Tuft and Needle kept things simple in an effort to make the price point as attractive to as many people as possible.

Price

Loom And Leaf is $999 for a Queen.  This does not include a delivery charge.

Tuft And Needle is $600 for a Queen, including free shipping.

Sleeping Cool

Loom and Leaf takes some extra steps to make sure the mattress can sleep cool.  For that reason, and based on personal experience, I think it does a slightly better job of this between the two mattresses.

Pick Loom And Leaf If:

  • You Like The Memory Foam Feel– If you are used to / like the slow-moving memory foam feel, that’s exactly what you get with Loom and Leaf.
  • Motion Isolation Is A Big Issue For You– The high-density memory foam used in the L&L makes it great for couples who don’t want to be bothered by the other person’s movement at night.
  • You Want A More Luxury Experience– Those no question Loom and Leaf pulled out all the stops to make the mattress a luxury experience.  If it’s in your budget, then you may want to pull the trigger on the L&L.

Pick Tuft And Needle If:

  • You Are On A Budget Or Don’t Plan On Having The Mattress Too Long– Tuft and Needle is certainly more affordable than the Loom And Leaf.  If you don’t plan on having the mattress a long time, then it probably makes more sense money-wise to go for the T&N.
  • You Want A More Resilient Mattress– If you don’t like the slow-moving feel of memory foam, then the T&N offers a foam feel with some bounce/resilience.

Overall

I think both mattresses offer a great value.  The construction is so different that I think the choice should be pretty clear.  Either way, I don’t think you can really go wrong with either choice, and the return policies are so good there’s no big risk in going for either of them.
