Casper vs Nectar
Casper engineers every detail of your best rest, while Nectar mostly offers filler.
Shop mattressesTheir 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.
DESIGNED AND BUILT IN THE USA
The One

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 in Casper mattresses. 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.
Just right, every night.
We believe that every body deserves that perfect balance of softness and support, not just Goldilocks. Check out how Casper scored on the ergonomic scale.
What does ergonomics even mean?

I bought a Nectar mattress
"I bought a Nectar mattress prior to buying the Casper. . I hated it... Then I got my Casper... I slept like a baby...I love it"
Noah
We have tried them all!!!
"My wife and I have ordered the Nectar, we returned it, it sank in too much and we were falling into each other. Also way too high up. [...] we ordered the Casper One, we are keeping it! [...] This mattress is the perfect height. Perfect combination between supportive and comfortable!!! Just order it."

"So far so good! Way better than the nectar mattress that we ended up returning. This mattress has been so much better for my back!"
We’ve been dreaming for more than a decade. Nectar can’t say that.
With more than 11 years in the sleep game, we know more about how great sleep can change your life. That’s why we make it just as easy to find your perfect mattress as it is to sleep on it.
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.

Find your storeCasper offers a range of mattresses tailored for side, back, and combination sleepers—like Dream Max for extra support and Snow Max for cooling plus ergonomic comfort. Nectar’s models provide a universal memory foam feel, but Casper’s custom zoning, hybrid options, and targeted support may make it easier to find the ideal fit for your sleep style.
Both brands perform well in motion isolation, helping couples rest undisturbed. Casper goes further with our hybrid construction and reinforced edges—especially in Dream Max and Dream Hybrid—giving couples extra stability and full-mattress comfort that stands out in side-by-side comparisons. This combination is perfect for early risers and night owls getting in and out of bed at any time, leaving partners to keep snoozing.
Casper offers a 100-night risk-free trial and a straightforward 10-year limited warranty, so you know exactly what to expect. Nectar advertises a “forever” warranty with its 365-night trial – but it’s important to read the fine print. Casper keeps the process clear and hassle-free, making it easy to try a mattress at home with real peace of mind.
Casper mattresses are thoughtfully designed and assembled in the USA, with all foam layers poured locally for quality and consistency. It’s unclear exactly where Nectar mattresses are primarily being manufactured and assembled. Choosing Casper means you benefit from American design, innovation, and quality control throughout the most important parts of the mattress-making process.
Casper’s hybrid models—especially Dream Max—offer robust edge support, durable springs, and multiple layers of zoned comfort, making them a top choice for heavier sleepers who want lasting support and minimal sinkage. Nectar’s designs may suit some, but Casper is engineered for lasting comfort across body types.
Casper hybrid mattresses feature reinforced edges and premium materials that help maintain shape, support, and comfort through years of nightly use. The Dream Max and Snow Max Hybrid are designed for superior resilience, so your sleep stays supported night after night. Nectar’s all-foam mattresses may soften over time, but Casper’s attention to quality and core strength keep your mattress feeling “just right” longer.
