I am debating getting a new Nectar mattress, as I have heard many good things about it. My current mattress is almost 30 years old…so I am LOOOONG overdue for an upgrade. I currently have a king size bed and plan to get the Nectar king size bed, in either Classic or Premier.
I wanted to get people’s opinions on what they like about the Classic or Premier version of the Nectar mattress? Why pick one over the other? I am planning to go to the nearest location with Nectar mattresses next week to test them out, but figured I’d ask on here first to get a head start on what I should be looking for.
I am a 6’ 4” male and about 215 lbs. I have no back problems / issues with pain at night sleeping; I am just looking for a new bed for me and my gf, as we are moving and are tossing the old mattress to upgrade to a new one.
Also on a side note, is the “cooling technology” option worth it? Is it noticeable if I decide to get one WITH the cooling technology? Thanks in advance!
So as the title says I'm conflicted between these two options, I'm a side sleeper that fluctuates between 180 and 190 lbs (83-88KG), as such tend to prefer a softer bed, has a very active job, and needs as much support as possible. As the sale ends in a day time any help is greatly appreciated!!!
I was initially dead set on the nectar Memory memory foam premier until I saw it was ideal for those with uuuuh...other needs in the bedroom. So the natural option was to go for the hybrid. And upon doing some research I found the common opinion is that the standard hybrid is actually softer than its premier version.
Does the standard nectar hybrid really come as close to feeling as memory foam like as its full foam counterparts as some reviews will have you believe? Or is there any alternatives around the same price point (UK) that suit my needs better.
Thanks for your help everyone :D

Looking to upgrade to a comfortable queen size mattress. I’m stuck between getting the nectar original for $650 and the original purple mattress for $1150. I have a herniated disk and have lower back and hip pain, just looking to ease it. Any personal experience or recommendations?

Hey everyone! I’ve been sleeping on the Nectar Premier mattress for about a month now, and I thought I’d share my experience for anyone considering it.
Comfort & Feel Right off the bat, the Premier is plush but supportive. The gel memory foam layer really does keep things cool, which is awesome since I tend to overheat at night. I was skeptical at first, but it actually adapts to your body without that “stuck” feeling some memory foam mattresses have. It’s a medium-firm feel—supportive for my back but also soft enough for side sleeping.
Motion Isolation If you have a partner who moves a lot, the Premier does a great job at keeping motion isolated. My partner can get up without me feeling a thing (seriously, I’ve slept through a lot more movement than usual).
Edge Support One thing I didn’t expect was how well this mattress holds up on the edges. I like to sit on the side of the bed when I put on shoes or work on my laptop, and it feels stable, not like I’m going to slide off. I know older Nectar models struggled with this but the latest models are much better.
Delivery This is my only real negative thing is that the mattress is pretty heavy and a bit tough to move on your own (good luck). It also arrived with a broken box, but thankfully, the mattress was well-wrapped and perfectly protected inside. Just something to keep in mind if you’re handling it alone.
Value & Warranty Price-wise, it’s definitely on the premium side compared to some stuff on Amazon, but with the forever warranty and 365-night trial, it felt like a safe investment. If you’re thinking long-term, I think it’s worth the cost, especially with Nectar’s offers.
Final Thoughts Overall, I’m loving my sleep on the Nectar Premier so far. It’s been a solid upgrade in terms of comfort, and my mornings are noticeably less stiff. If you’re looking for a mattress that’s supportive yet comfy and stays cool, this one’s worth a look.
Feel free to ask me any questions—I know it’s a big decision and hard to do real research with all the crap you see on Reddit and other place - so I’m happy to help!
Hello! We have an old queen nectar mattress from 2017 and are looking to upgrade to a king. We cannot decide between the premier or classic and whether or not we should go hybrid! Any suggestions? I’m about 5’7 185 pounds, my fiancé is heavier (unsure of weight).
Thanks in advance!
Quick review for my Nectar Premier queen size memory foam mattress!
Upgraded from a very old box-spring twin size mattress to this. Original price was $2,000 but got on sale for $650 in the middle of last May (have had for 1 year now)!
After spending hours reading reviews and going to a bunch of furniture and mattress stores, no store could beat a bed-in-a box price or (alleged) comfort. Nectar gave me the best bang for my buck. I ordered the original memory foam at first (worth $1,500+), but then customer service called me and said that since my original order wouldn't come on time, they would upgrade me for free to the Premier (worth $2,000+). After telling me this, they then tried to send me the original memory foam, but I then had to haggle with customer service again on the phone to go back and get the Premier I was promised. Customer service people everywhere-- don't offer someone a free upgrade and then attempt to take it back! I will also say that the box was pretty beat up when it got to me, but the mattress inside was luckily fine.
I put it on a $215 lift-up storage bed frame, which is essentially putting it on a platform. As an aside, I love that bed frame, but I bought it on Amazon and it's not affiliated with Nectar sleep in any way.
I generally really like this mattress. It's nice to have the memory foam as it's soft to lay on and reduces my movement affecting my partner. I noticed that once my back got used to the different feeling (probably took 2-3 weeks for this, as I had never had a memory foam mattress before), I feel better in the morning and get deeper sleep. That being said, the edges are pretty soft, so it can be difficult to do things such as putting on socks while sitting on the edge of the bed. There is also something to be desired with the "cooling features" that this mattress promises, but I do have a partner that is a human heater/put cheaper sheets and mattress pad on this mattress, so I think maybe those are the bigger culprits with the bed retaining heat while sleeping in it. I will also mention that *so far* I have not experienced any sinking in of the mattress, but I am also religious about rotating it 180 degrees every 3 months to help avoid this. One con, I suppose, is that it can't be flipped upside-down due to its construction.
Overall, I like this mattress. The pros are that the memory foam is comfortable to sleep on, it's a big upgrade in size and quality from my old mattress (lol), and it was relatively easy to get into my new apartment. The cons are that the edges are a bit soft for my liking, and the customer service/shipping snafus were a hassle. The heat of sleeping on this mattress could be a con, but there are too many confounding variables to attribute that to the mattress itself IMO. I do think it's worth the $650 I got it for, but I wouldn't pay the full $2,000+ for it.
**Edited to add additional details minutes after original posting.
My fiancé and I are planning on getting a Nectar Hybrid but are undecided about which model to choose.
We tried both the Premier Hybrid & Luxe Hybrid out in-store and liked both, but we’re curious to know if you own them, how they have held up. Have you had any experience with either of these models? Did you wish you had gotten a different one? Do you have any other recommendations?
For reference, I’m 5’7” and weigh 115 pounds, while he’s 5’9” and weighs 165 pounds. I’m a back and side sleeper, and he’s a side sleeper.
Thanks in advance!
Trying to figure out which to get. Our current mattress is over 10 years old and is toast lol. I have back issues and tend to fall asleep on my back, my wife is more of a side sleeper/stomach sleepr. I weigh ~200 ish and wife is 160ish. Any input would be great!
We have had our Nectar Premier for about a year and two weeks. Contacted customer service and unfortunately missed the guarantee period by two weeks! So now we have an almost new mattress that we want to toss (responsibility, of course).
Specific complaints:
Sleeps very hot.
Because you're very hot while you sleep on this mattress, you feel compelled to move around a lot throughout the night.
Moving around on this mattress is very difficult, you just don't have the resilience. It's more like lifting dead weight just to turn over.
Difficult to get comfortable as a side sleeper lower back really starts to hurt.
Disappointed that after buying three mattresses from this company, they wouldn't honor the one year guarantee but I guess the guarantee is a guarantee and missing it by two weeks was our bad.
My husband and I have finally decided to upgrade ourselves to a king size bed. It’s been along time coming, but I’ve honestly never spent any time (until now) trying to decide on what mattress to get.
We went in store to try some out and landed on deciding between the Nectar Premier Copper or the Purple Restore Premier.
Both were comfortable for both of us with the Purple pulling slightly ahead in comfort level while laying on our backs. But the Nectar pulled ahead when it comes to price.
Very indecisive at this point, choosing between a higher price with a little more comfort or a much better price point for decent comfort. Also the price isn’t the end of the world, we can afford the Purple but we have a baby on the way so we are just trying to be smart about our spending.
Any personal reviews or input regarding these two mattresses? Would love to hear some outside opinions.
Thanks!
I really wish I knew about this sub a month ago. A simple "Nectar" search in this sub would have been enough for me to steer clear and saved me a lot of headaches.
My mattress needs to be replaced and a co-worker recommended Nectar to me. I checked it out and liked the price, but most importantly: the shipping time. They say 2-5 business days (LOL!).
I bought my mattress last month expecting to get it the following week. It never came. I checked the order status and noticed the date got pushed out. I chatted with a rep and they told me I will have my mattress on July 5th. I thought that was kind of odd since this conversation happened on the 2nd and I never got a shipping confirmation.
My mattress did not come on the 5th. I contacted them the following day. They told me that there was an inventory issue with the mattress I purchased. I got pretty pissed with the rep because it didn't say sold out or place backorder when I bought it. They ensured me that my mattress would be shipping either the next day or the day after. He refunded me a whopping $50 for my troubles.
Today is the day after, and I never got a shipping confirmation. I chatted with another useless rep that told me my shipping label is printed and it's awaiting pickup. I told him if it's not shipped by the time I get off work I will be canceling. It didn't ship of course. Clearly these people are given a script and told to tell pissed off customers "it's shipping tomorrow" to string them along.
I called after I got off work to cancel. The lady told me that my mattress was shipping today. I told her "That's hard for me to believe when you are the fourth person to tell me that. Cancel my order." She canceled it no problem, though.
Just posting this to add to the Nectar hate so no poor saps like me waste their time with this garbage company. You'd have better luck buying a mattress in Sri Lanka as an American tourist. Stay away from these swindlers.
Combined weight of 360 pounds, we sleep hot, one sleep on the side and the other belly down. This is a long overdue upgrade for us and we want to invest onto something that will last but also premium comfortable.
I currently sleep on an old serta mattress with a memory foam layer.
Thoughts?
We just got a Nectar Premier Hybrid and have slept in it for two nights now, but for some reason I feel it may be too soft as it feels like I am sinking down when I move on it or even get in and out of bed and I am a rather small person 5’1” 120lbs. I don’t know if this is normal, something I am not used to and just takes a break in period with my body getting used to it or if it super soft? I have also felt stiff and sore getting up but also don’t know if that is adjusting as my previous sleeping arrangements were a sinking in couch! Has anyone experienced this bed or maybe similar changes?? Not sure what I should do going forward.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Long story short - my 10-year-old Paramount memory foam mattress is sagging in the middle and is likely causing a pinched nerve in my right leg. Not fun. I need to replace it ASAP.
After doing some reading and watching some videos showcasing and critiquing the mattress, I decided that this one was my best option. I visited a local home appliance store so I could get a feel for it first. It was super comfortable compared to what I'm sleeping on now. The firmness felt perfect for what I need. That sold me.
After paying for the mattress and scheduling the delivery for this weekend, I came to Reddit. Everybody here hates Nectar.
Of course, one of the primary complaints is dealing with their customer service, which is a bullet I will be dodging having bought through a retailer. The main concern is the use of fiberglass inside the mattress. I've read some conflicting information, as there is some belief that Nectar may no longer be using fiberglass. If that is the case, then I think I'll be fine with the mattress.
If not... I don't know what to do. I do have the option to cancel before delivery this weekend. I'm a super cautious person by nature and don't want to deal with any fiberglass leaks. I would also prefer to not have another mattress that starts sagging on me after a few years, which is another complaint I have read about Nectar.
It's a little sketchy that they lied about their products being made in the USA, but that won't necessarily affect my experience so I'm not too concerned.
Any input for me, specifically about the newer line of Nectar hybrids?
We recently made a huge mistake and bought a sealy tighttop 1000 coil mattress and it stiff as board. Awful. The worst part is going to return it we nicked the bottom and ripped it 😭.
Anyway enough of that, now i cant sleep on it for much longer so i need a mattress topper or a new bed . Im pregnant and my back is dying already from the plywood bed lol.
Is nector good? Are u a real person or a nectar employee 🤣🤣🤣 the reviews almost seem too good to be true whilst so much hate is out there?
ALSO, how long have u had your bed? Anyone here have it for 8+ years?
AALSOOOOO, does it have fiberglass? It seems like there is misleading info out there
Thank u
Hey guys, I’ve narrowed my mattress search down to Nectar.
My wife and I currently have a generic memory foam mattress in a box from Amazon, and we’ve had it about 9 months. After 4-5 months, we had to rotate it due to a pit being formed where we lied. Now we’re feeling a out again and have decided to get a higher quality mattress instead of following the same routine again.
We like to sit up and watch TV at night, so stability to support us is a major need. I’m 6’1” about 250, she’s 5’4” about 180. We don’t necessarily have a primary way we sleep since we both move around and switch sleep positions during the night.
My question is should I go with a Nectar Original or Nectar Hybrid? We like the idea of a medium firm with the original, but also like the stronger support coils of the Hybrid.
Any input is greatly appreciated!!
Ive whittled my mattress hunting down to those two choices, neither are hybrids. Do you really think the Tempur-pedic is worth the extra 800+ dollars for the queen? Seems like such an exorbitant amount of money. I laid on both of them my local mattress firm and they felt so similar.
The salesperson said the tempur will hold up better over time, but I can’t really trust what they say since they work on commission.
Hey all,
In the market for a new mattress and nectar seems like a solid choice for a good night's sleep. I've tried out their premium model and it seems like it's comfortable enough. Also, it looks like a decent enough deal (mattresses cost way too much in general) at 1099 for a full-size mattress with pillows cover and such. Wondering if I was missing something or if there was a better deal to be had for a similar product.
Thank you!
