⭐Total Score for the Spindle Mattress:7.7 /10⭐

Test Performance Features

✅ Pros

• Responsiveness: The latex layers that make up the Spindle’s construction are highly elastic, meaning that they have enough “push back” to keep up with your changes in position.
• Durability: Latex is one of the most durable mattress materials available, lasting longer than yout traditional foam or innerspring beds.
• Spine Alignment: The Spindle received a near-perfect score for spine alignment, meaning you wake up with minimal low back pain.
• 365-Night Sleep Trial: You get an entire year to trial the Spindle mattress in your home.

❌ Cons

• Cost: The Spindle mattress is a high-quality item that is sourced and assembled in the USA, so it has a slightly higher price point than other bed-in-a-box mattresses.
• Setup: You assemble the mattress layers in your home, which tacks on more time compared to most bed-in-a-box mattresses that come pre-assembled.
• Edge Support: The Spindle provides only moderate edge support for people who like to sleep near the edge.

Spine Alignment

We were blown away by how well the Spindle mattress supported spine alignment, aka good sleeping posture. Both of our tester’s spines were really straight with just a slight upwards curve towards the base of the neck. 

Latex is naturally buoyant, so when it’s paired with a softer top layer, it creates a supportive, contouring surface that suspends your spine in a neutral position. You are much less likely to wake up with pain and stiffness when you have good alignment on your mattress.

Edge Support

Our testers noted that the Spindle provided only a moderate support when we asked them to sit on the edge of the bed and put on their shoes. They also found it a little difficult to lie comfortably on the edge of the bed, so we gave it an overall score of 5.5 for edge support.

This won’t be an issue for most people, but it’s worth noting if you plan to share a small mattress or like to sleep near the edge of the bed. If you share a bed, consider sizing up from a queen size to a king size.

Pressure Relief

We use a pressure map to see how well a mattress cushions pressure points. Blue and green zones mean low pressure, while yellow and red zones indicate higher pressure. We saw mainly blue and green on our first tester’s map, with some red around his shoulders, and a bit more red near our second tester’s shoulders. 

So for a total pressure relief score, Spindle gets a 7.25/10.

How Does Each Firmness Option Feel?

The medium firmness option feels fairly soft when you press into it, but we think the natural buoyancy of the latex causes it to feel closer to medium firm. The firm option has more firm latex layers, so you won’t sink as far into the mattress, but it’s not extra firm like most innerspring mattresses.

What Firmness Level Should Each Sleeping Position Choose?

The medium Spindle mattress is a great choice for side sleepers, while the firm option is better for stomach sleepers. Back sleepers and combination sleepers will fare well on either option, but we recommend the medium mattress if you are a combo sleeper who favors side sleeping.

Will It Keep You Cool?

Latex is well known for its cooling properties, and we found the Spindle to be no exception. The layers of latex are perforated for better airflow, and the mattress cover is made with moisture-wicking natural wool batting. We gave it an 8/10 for cooling because our testers stayed comfortably temperature-neutral when they lay on the mattress.

Will It Support Light or Heavy People?

The Spindle owners frankly share that the Spindle mattress may not be supportive enough for people with heavier body types (BMI over 31) or pressure relieving enough for those with petite body types (BMI under 19). Specifically, heavier sleepers need a thicker latex mattress like the Nest Bedding Hybrid Latex Mattress.

What Foundations or Bed Frames Can be Used with Spindle?

The Spindle mattress is a bit heavier than average, so a bed frame with adequate support is very important. Spindle recommends

• Platform beds with slats at least 3/4” thick, spaced no more than 3” apart, with a center rail and floor support.
• Adjustable beds that don’t have mesh or wire bases.
• Solid wood box foundations (they look a lot like a box spring, but are much more supportive) with slats at least 3/4” thick, spaced no more than 3” apart, with a center rail.
• No plywood.

Setting Up the Mattress

Our Spindle mattress arrived in three boxes, and it took us over eight minutes to set it up. The layers come in individual boxes that are assembled layer by layer inside the zippable mattress cover. Each layer is heavy, so ask a friend to help you. Overall, assembly is pretty simple! Bonus: we didn’t notice any off-gassing from the mattress.

Who Should Buy Spindle?

The Spindle mattress is an ideal choice for those who favor the contouring, bouncy feel of latex—particularly those who want a latex mattress that sleeps cool. It’s also an appealing choice for shoppers looking for an all-natural, eco-friendly mattress. 

The Spindle may not offer enough support for those with heavier body types. Heavier sleepers who want a latex bed will get adequate support on the Nest Bedding Latex Hybrid mattress. Also, those who prefer the slow sink of memory foam mattresses will find a better fit with the Amerisleep AS3.

How Spindle Compares

Spindle is the only mattress we’ve reviewed with three adjustable latex layers. Several other eco-friendly brands combine latex with wool and organic cotton. These include

• The dual-sided ZenHaven mattress, which has better pressure relief and motion isolation than the Spindle, but costs more.
• The PlushBeds Botanical Bliss mattress, which provides better pressure relief, but costs more.
• The Pure Green mattress by Sleep On, which offers better pressure relief and motion isolation, and is more affordable
