Want to feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud? Then the Puffy Cloud mattress might be for you. This all-foam bed-in-a-box is the brand’s flagship mattress and features a combination of gel memory foam and high-density poly foam to offer a balance of pressure relief and support.
Since memory foam is often known for deep body contouring and sinkage, I wanted to see if I actually felt like I was floating (and sleeping) on cloud nine. For this Puffy Cloud mattress review, I put the bed through a variety of tests to find out.

Where the Puffy Cloud is Featured
Here at Sleepopolis, we use a series of hands-on tests to determine which mattress roundups a bed belongs to and who it might be good for. Here are some of our 2023 mattress roundups that include the Puffy Cloud:
- Best Memory Foam Mattress
- Best Mattress for Arthritis
- Best Hypoallergenic Mattress
- Best Mattress for Spinal Stenosis
Puffy Cloud Mattress Overview
The Puffy Cloud is an all-foam bed-in-a-box mattress that only contains CertiPUR-US® Certified foams, which means they’re free of harmful chemicals and heavy metals. This mattress has a hypoallergenic and stain-resistant cover, which makes it a great mattress for kids.
Like any online mattress or bed-in-a-box mattress, the Puffy Cloud has a 24 to 48 hour off-gassing period. During this time, your mattress will fully decompress and release any trapped gasses in its foams. This may cause your mattress to release a slight odor, but it’s nothing to be concerned about. If you’re worried about the smell, place your new mattress in a well-ventilated room and avoid adding sheets for a day or so.
For more information about the Puffy brand, read our interview with Puffy’s founder, Arthur Andreasyan, where he discusses how posting your Puffy on social media can help bring Puffy mattresses to children’s shelters.

Puffy Cloud Mattress Sleepopolis Score
What Is the Puffy Cloud Mattress Made Of?
The Puffy Cloud is made entirely of memory foam and was designed to promote proper spinal alignment. With a height of 10 inches and 4 layers of construction, this mattress promotes comfort at every layer. Let’s take a closer look at what’s inside the Puffy Cloud Mattress.
Cover – The top layer of the Puffy Cloud mattress features a Cool Touch Cloud Cover, knitted with cooling yarns in a subtle original cloud design. This cover is cool-to-the-touch and offers a plush, cloudlike feel to enhance comfort.
Comfort Layer – The mattress includes a two-inch layer of Cooling CloudFoam, infused with gel for better cooling. This layer contours to your body, providing additional comfort and temperature regulation.
Transition Layer – Next, a two-inch layer of Cloud Comfort Pressure Relief Foam targets key pressure points to allow you to sink comfortably into the mattress while feeling supported.
Support Layer – At the core of the Puffy Cloud mattress lies a six-inch layer of high-density Firm Core Support Foam. This layer provides strong and sturdy support to the mattress.
Puffy Cloud Mattress Firmness
Before we get started, remember that firmness is subjective. A mattress will feel firmer or softer to different sleepers depending on their body weight, shape, and preferred sleeping position. To get an accurate idea of how firm the Puffy Cloud feels, I polled a range of coworkers — all of whom are Certified Sleep Science Coaches — and averaged our scores and firmness levels together. The industry standard for medium firmness is a 6.5 out of 10.
The Puffy Cloud initially felt very soft when I laid down, but after I sank through the top layer, I felt support from its transition layer. As I sank into its layers, I found that the mattress cradled my body effectively while maintaining excellent support and alignment for the spine.
I gave this mattress a 6 out of 10 on the mattress firmness scale, which means it’s a little softer than average. The Puffy Cloud is ideal for sleepers who prefer the gentle, memory foam feel and provides notable pressure relief, particularly around the lower lumbar area.

Claudia Guzman, Puffy customerSleeping Position and Body Weight
We recognize that people come in all shapes and sizes, and people of every size deserve a mattress that works for their body type. We use the weight categories light, average, and heavy to more easily categorize sleepers based on how mattresses will perform for their body type, as most mattresses are designed for the group we call “average” (130 to 250 pounds).
As a general rule, lighter sleepers don’t require as much support as average weight sleepers, and mattresses will tend to feel firmer to them. On the other hand, heavy sleepers tend to need more support than average weight sleepers and tend to sink into the mattress more.
As far as sleeping positions go, side sleepers tend to need a softer mattress while stomach sleepers usually need a firmer, more supportive one. Back sleepers are usually somewhere in the middle.
Is the Puffy Cloud a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – Yes, these sleepers should be quite happy on the Puffy Cloud. They’ll experience a nice mix of spinal support and pressure relief at the lower back.
- Light Side Sleepers – I’d also recommend the Puffy Cloud to lightweight side sleepers. They should find some nice pressure relief from the Puffy Cloud’s cozy Gel Cloud comfort layer.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – I think the Puffy Cloud could be a bit too soft for light stomach sleepers and could allow their hips to sink too far into the mattress, throwing the spine out of alignment. I’d recommend checking out our roundup of best mattresses for stomach sleepers for better options.
Is the Puffy Cloud a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130–250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – I think average weight back sleepers should be happy on this bed. I’d especially recommend it to those who suffer from pain at the hips and/or shoulders who need a bit of added pressure relief.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – These sleepers should also be quite happy on this bed. They’ll get some nice sinkage at the hips and shoulders.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – The Puffy Cloud isn’t quite firm enough for average weight stomach sleepers. These sleepers should opt for a firmer mattress that will promote a neutral spine alignment for stomach sleeping.
Is the Puffy Cloud a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Back, Side, and Stomach Sleepers – I wouldn’t recommend the Puffy Cloud as a good mattress for heavy people. It doesn’t have the right level of support to prevent these sleepers from sinking all the way down into the bed. Instead, I’d opt for a hybrid or innerspring mattress, or better yet, one specifically designed for heavy people — like the ones in our roundup of best mattresses for heavy people.
Puffy Cloud Mattress Performance
A big part of what we do here at Sleepopolis is run a series of tests on each mattress we review. This helps our team of Certified Sleep Science Coaches get an objective view of what it would be like to sleep on them. These tests also allow us to make even more specific recommendations in addition to sleeping position and body type. Below, see how the Puffy Cloud performs in areas such as pain relief, motion transfer, cooling, and more.
Puffy Cloud Mattress Pain Relief Performance
How a bed alleviates pressure at the shoulders and hips is crucial for every sleeper to consider. It’s especially important if you struggle with pain, as a mattress with good pressure relief can help prevent and ease soreness and stiffness.
I measured the pressure relief on the Puffy Cloud mattress by using a pressure map. A pressure map provides a visual representation of where pressure points may form while lying on the Puffy Cloud. I placed a specialized mat on top of the Puffy Cloud and rolled onto my back, side, and stomach to show you how the Puffy Cloud responds to body weight. We cover three different areas: back pain, shoulder pain, and hip pain. Blue to green areas indicate low pressure while orange to red areas show high pressure.
Before looking at the results below, you’ll definitely want to take your sleeping position into account. For example, we don’t recommend very soft mattresses to stomach sleepers. So if you’re a stomach sleeper with back pain, you’ll probably still want to avoid this model, despite it performing well in back pain relief. In short, consider your sleeping position first, then look at our pressure map results.
As you can see, we’re entering the orange and red zone in the shoulder and hip region while side sleeping, which indicates a build up in pressure. Because pressure is building up here, I would recommend side sleepers who struggle with shoulder pain to opt for a slightly softer mattress for more pressure relief here. While back sleeping, we see all blue and green on the map, which means there’s not a lot of pressure building up and the mattress shouldn’t cause pain when sleeping in this position.
Motion Transfer
Motion transfer is a measure of the amount of movement you’ll likely detect from one side of the bed to the other. If you sleep with a partner who tends to toss and turn throughout the night, or a pet that moves around a lot, you’ll want a bed that doesn’t transfer much movement. Prioritizing low motion transfer, or what we also call good motion isolation, can ensure you sleep soundly.
Human Test
The first test is simple: we lie down on the mattress with a colleague, roll around, and see how much of each other’s movement we feel.
Aside from when we first got into bed, we could barely detect each other’s movements. The Puffy Cloud seemed to do a fantastic job of absorbing motion.
Wine Test
We also place a full wine glass on the mattress and see how much the wine moves around with us. If the liquid has zero to little movement, then it’s a safe bet that the mattress has low motion transfer, which is what you want to see. Even though I was rolling around quite a bit, the liquid in the glass barely moved, which shows signs of low motion transfer.
Seismometer Test
Finally, there’s our seismometer test. This involves dropping a 10 pound steel ball from heights of four inches, eight inches and 12 inches, then measuring the disturbance it causes: the bigger the lines on the graph, the bigger the disturbance and the higher the motion transfer.
These are great motion transfer results! Looking at the results of these motion transfer tests, I’d say you won’t feel disturbed by a partner tossing and turning. In fact, you might not even feel them getting in and out of bed.
Responsiveness
Responsiveness refers to how quickly a mattress goes back to its original shape after pressure has been applied. We test each mattress’s responsiveness by pressing down on its top layer, removing our hand, and seeing how quickly the surface returns to its original shape. Memory foam usually has a low response to pressure, while hybrid mattresses with coils (such as the Puffy Lux Hybrid) tend to have a high response to pressure.
The Puffy Cloud isn’t a particularly bouncy or responsive bed, and you’ll likely feel more “in” the bed as you sink into the layers than “on top” of the bed. This could be an issue for combination sleepers who switch between multiple positions at night. You may feel a bit trapped and have a hard time transitioning from one position to the next. This could also be problematic for couples, who may prefer an innerspring mattress or one of our best mattresses for sex.
Cooling
A lot of factors go into how cool a mattress will sleep. The materials inside the mattress largely contribute to whether the heat will be trapped or flow freely. Memory foam in general is prone to trapping heat, but due to the cooling gel inside the Puffy Cloud, it sleeps cool.
I tested the Puffy Cloud with a thermal gun, a device that uses color-coded imaging to measure how much and how quickly a mattress heats up when someone lies down on it.
If it heats more than 15 degrees Fahrenheit, I consider it to have poor cooling capabilities. 10 to 15 degrees indicates decent cooling, 5 to 10 degrees indicates good cooling, and less than 5 degrees indicates excellent cooling.
In the case of the Puffy Cloud, the temperature only went up 4.5 degrees, making it an excellent choice for hot sleepers.
Remember that several outside factors can affect cooling, including the temperature of your bedroom, how close your bed is to an air vent or window, and your body’s temperature, which can vary from person to person.
Edge Support
I also tested the edge support on the Puffy Cloud. Edge support measures whether you can sleep all the way on the edge of the bed without feeling the side of the mattress collapsing under your weight. Edge support can also help you determine a mattress’s durability and whether it may sag over time.
When sitting on the edge and corners, I observed significant sinkage, feeling unstable and nearly hitting the platform. However, lying on the edge provided a more stable experience with minimal sinkage, offering better support.
When I measured the sinkage with a yardstick, the layers sank approximately three inches of compression when weight was applied to the edge.
While not ideal for those needing strong edge support, such as individuals with mobility issues, the Puffy Cloud is a solid choice for couples who primarily sleep on the bed’s center.
Puffy Cloud Mattress Performance For Couples
This mattress could be a decent pick for couples, but some of its features may not be ideal. The Puffy Cloud is an all-foam mattress, and though it does have some cooling features, it pales in comparison to the cooling abilities in hybrid mattresses. After all, hybrid beds contain coils that promote airflow. We also weren’t overly impressed with the Puffy’s responsiveness and edge support, so if this is zzzzimportant to you, we recommend an innerspring mattress. However, the motion isolation on this bed is fantastic, which is ideal for many couples, especially if one or both partners sleep lightly. You shouldn’t be disturbed by a partner tossing and turning on their side of the bed.

Claudia Guzman, Puffy customerMy Final Thoughts about the Puffy Cloud Mattress
We’ve made it through my Puffy Cloud mattress review! Now that we’ve looked at this mattress in-depth, I want to give a quick summary of my favorite (and not so favorite) components of the Puffy Cloud.
Who I Recommend the Puffy Cloud Mattress For
- I think people with aches and pains could find a lot of pressure relief and support from the Puffy Cloud.
- The Puffy Cloud’s combination of softness and support could be helpful to those suffering from arthritis.
- Although memory foam typically traps heat, this mattress uses an infusion of cooling gel to help keep cool, which could be beneficial to hot sleepers.
- The stain-resistant, hypoallergenic cover on this mattress makes me think it’s a great choice for anyone shopping for kids.
Who I Don’t Recommend the Puffy Cloud Mattress For
- Heavier sleepers (over 250 pounds) will probably not find the Puffy Cloud comfortable. This bed is just 10 inches tall, so I don’t think it will offer the deep compression support these folks need to feel comfortable and supported throughout the night.
- Like many all-foam beds, it may start to sag earlier than a mattress that includes innerspring support. But, Puffy does offer a lifetime warranty on this mattress, so if your old Puffy Cloud mattress starts to sag you may be able to replace it for free.

Claudia Guzman, Puffy customerPuffy Cloud Mattress Policies and FAQs
The Puffy mattress ships free and will be delivered to your door compressed in a box. It comes with a 101-night sleep trial period. If you don’t like it, you can return it for free and get a full refund. If you keep it, you have a lifetime warranty. Yes! The company says, “Puffy Mattress is designed to work with any frame or surface including box springs, flat frames, slats, or even adjustable frames.” Puffy sells a bed frame and an adjustable base as well. The Puffy mattress does not need to be flipped. Puffy does recommend that you rotate the mattress 180 degrees about once a year to increase its lifespan. Like any bed-in-a-box the Puffy will go through an off-gassing period. But I didn’t notice a particularly strong smell when I unboxed the Puffy mattress. I’d recommend letting the mattress air out for a few hours before adding sheets.

Puffy Cloud Mattress Vs
Now that we know more about the Puffy Cloud mattress, let’s compare the bed to two of its top competitors: the Nectar mattress and the Purple mattress.
Puffy Cloud Mattress vs Nectar Mattress
Like the Puffy, The Nectar is a bed-in-a-box mattress that features memory foam to provide deep pressure relief. The Nectar is similar in firmness and features a ton of deep body contouring.
- Price: The Nectar mattress is cheaper than the Puffy Cloud mattress.
- Sleeping position: Both mattresses are suitable for back and side sleepers, but stomach sleepers may want to opt for a firmer mattress.
- Cooling: While both are all-foam mattresses, the Nectar and Puffy Cloud both contain a layer of gel-infused memory foam, which helps with cooling.
- Body weight: Neither of these mattresses are ideal for heavier sleepers. Check out our best mattress for heavy people roundup for options designed with these sleepers in mind.

- Sleeping position: The Purple mattress is a better choice for combination sleepers as it is springy and responsive.
- Cooling: The Purple mattress sleeps cooler than the Puffy Cloud thanks to its breathable grid layer.
- Body weight: I don’t think either of these mattresses have the level of support heavy sleepers need.

Other Models from Puffy
Puffy sells a few different models, so which one is best for you? Below, I’ll compare the Puffy Cloud to Puffy’s other mattresses.
Puffy Cloud Mattress vs Puffy Lux Hybrid Mattress
The Lux Hybrid includes pocketed coil support, so it’s a little more durable than the Puffy Cloud.
- Price: The Puffy Lux Hybrid is more expensive than the Puffy Cloud.
- Sleeping position: The Lux Hybrid is ultra-plush, so it could be a better fit for side sleepers or sleepers suffering from shoulder pain.
- Cooling: The coils inside the Lux Hybrid make it more breathable and cooling.
- Body weight: I don’t think either mattress would be supportive enough for heavy weight sleepers.

Puffy Cloud Mattress vs Puffy Royal Hybrid Mattress
The Puffy Royal Hybrid has a soft feel and offers a lot of deep sinkage. The Royal Hybrid also includes pocketed coil support for some additional bounce and durability.
- Price: The Puffy Royal Hybrid is more expensive than the Puffy Cloud.
- Sleeping position: The Puffy Royal Hybrid is a better choice for side sleepers, as it provides more sinkage and pressure relief.
- Cooling: The Royal Hybrid sleeps cooler due to its Infused Cooling Foam, Climate Comfort Foam, Cloud Air Technology Foam, and coils.
- Body weight: Both mattresses are likely too soft to provide proper support for heavier sleepers.

Our Review Process
At Sleepopolis, our team of Certified Sleep Science Coaches personally test each mattress. We start by unboxing the mattress to figure out how difficult (or easy) it is to get the mattress from the box to the bed. Then, we spend time laying on the bed in different positions, taking time to assess it on our backs, stomachs, and sides. Next, we perform our Sleepopolis tests, using specialized tools to measure qualities like motion transfer, bounce, and pressure relief. Our last step is to open up the mattress and take a look at each layer. These steps allow us to give our final verdict on the mattress.
