Nectar Sleep Review: Is the Brand Worth Trusting?

A brand that competes on trial length and price rather than materials — and mostly earns it, as long as you want foam.

The short version

Our verdict

8.2
ExcellentBrand score

Nectar is not trying to make the best mattress. It is trying to make the easiest one to buy: a year-long trial, a lifetime warranty, and a sale price that never seems to end. On our testing that is a fair trade — the Premier is the best value cooling foam bed we have measured — but the support experience does not match the marketing, and the exact model still deserves its own review.

First, get to know the range

Nectar is more than a single mattress. Its current range includes memory foam and hybrid designs, as well as bed frames, adjustable bases and bedding. Start by choosing the type of mattress you want, then compare individual models within that group. Explore Nectar’s current range.

That distinction matters here: our brand score is the overall company assessment. The Premier mattress has a separate product review, with its own verdict and score. The product lineup below shows exactly which individual reviews are available.

Watch: from box to bedroom

This short video from Nectar shows the unboxing process. It is a useful visual introduction to how the mattress arrives and opens up. The footage is supplied by the manufacturer; the assessment on this page is our separate editorial review.

Look beyond the headline offer

A mattress purchase includes the delivery, setup, trial and aftercare experience. Compare the terms for the exact item and retailer you are considering, especially when a mattress is sold with a frame or bedding bundle. Keep your order confirmation and check what is included before placing the order.

Our brand score breakdown below separates the areas of the company assessment. Use those categories alongside the product’s own review, rather than expecting one number to answer every question about the purchase.

A few more things to know

Is the 365-night trial real?

Yes. We returned one mattress on day 214; pickup was arranged within a week and the refund cleared in nine days.

Which Nectar mattress should I buy?

The Premier for most people. The original Nectar is cheaper but noticeably warmer; the Premier Copper adds cost without a measurable temperature gain in our testing.
