Casper vs Nectar:
Skip the pulp.

Casper engineers every detail of your best rest, while Nectar mostly offers filler.

Their hype can’t support you at night.

Every mattress company says they support your back, but do they really?
Casper has designed, engineered, and tested the most supportive beds ever while Nectar mostly touts their mattress height.

Invest in your best rest.

Only 4¢ more a night for better sleep, and better tomorrows.

Supports your curves

Zoned Support takes into account the shapes and curves of your body with a softer foam around the shoulders and a firmer foam under the hips, waist, and lower back.

Ultimate back support

Zoned Support Max divides the mattress into 7 support zones and two layers to give you support exactly where you need it.

Nectar is off target.

Nectar mattresses lack the targeted support you can find a Casper mattress. With uniform layers, Nectar doesn’t cradle your curves or relieve aches and pains

You can feel Casper support all night.
You’ll feel Nectar’s support tomorrow.

Ergonomics may sound complicated, but our scores make one thing clear: When it comes to aches and pains and spinal alignment, you get what you pay for. Our mattresses offer unmatched support for just a little more.

What does ergonomics even mean? 

Simply put, it means less aches and pains and better spinal alignment.

Why do sleepers love Casper? Because they love their sleep.

"I recently bought a Purple Hybrid Premier 3 which was returned after 1 week because it caused me so much pain. I then ordered this mattress after a little research and it changed my life... stop thinking about it and just PUT IT IN YOUR CART! It totally changed my life."

"Good and firm! I got this after realizing the Purple mattress was too soft for me. This has helped my existing sciatica issue, which was present when I used the Purple."

Better breathability for better sleep.

How do we ensure your best rest? It’s simple. We follow two simple rules:
Everything in our mattress must help sleep, and must be tested, so there’s no room for gimmicks.

Less heat. More sleep.

The comfort foam in Casper mattresses is over 4x as breathable as Nectar Premier, so you enjoy more airflow—and less sleep disruptions.

Cooler sleep all night long. And then some.

Casper Snow doesn’t just sleep 5° cooler than Nectar Copper Premier, but with cover to core cooling technology, it sleeps cooler for 12+ hours.

Looking for the perfect mattress?

You spend 1/3 of your life sleeping, and Nectar simply isn’t worth the squeeze.

With five different mattresses so you can find your perfect match, Casper is in the business of quality sleep. The Casper Dream Mattress' ergonomic design and innovative cooling technology is engineered for comfort at prices that won’t break the bank.

Compared to Casper’s five different mattresses, Nectar only offers three options: a Memory Foam, Premier Memory Foam, and Premier Copper Memory Foam. The body of the Nectar Memory Foam mattress is made of three foam layers with uniform support throughout.

Ultimately, the choice is up to you. Both brands offer all-foam, premium mattresses. Where they differ is in pressure relief, firmness, and models available. The Casper Dream Mattress is designed for targeted pressure relief with three ergonomic zones of support. It has a medium firmness that is great for all sleeping positions, especially side sleepers. Casper also has more models available than Nectar, so you can find your perfect fit for a great night’s sleep. On top of that, Casper offers the option to add Zoned Support Max to your bed if you need some extra weight support. Casper Dream Max Hybrid mattress option gives you a new medium soft, foam feel, but with extra support.

We understand that buying a mattress is a big investment. Given you spend about one-third of your life in bed, you should take your time deciding and be sure to weigh the pros and cons of each option.

Casper - Cool as a Breeze: Highly breathable foams are designed to allow fresh air to cool you all night long. With 1.5" of breathe flex foam, the Casper One Mattress is designed to regulate temperature effectively.

Nectar - Mediocre Memory Foam: The Nectar Memory Foam has a thinner 1" layer of gel memory foam, which may not provide the same level of temperature regulation as Casper's cooling system.
