Puffy’s Made-in-USA Guarantee vs Nectar Materials From China

Puffy vs Nectar: A false claims and comparison guide.

Buying a mattress is a significant investment. It’s important to purchase one from a reputable brand you can trust, but with so many options out there, it can be tough to decide which is the right one for you.

Two brands you’ve probably found in your search for the perfect night’s sleep are the award-winning Puffy and Nectar. The critical difference between Puffy and Nectar mattresses is where the materials for their mattresses are sourced. Nectar sources their materials from China, and Puffy mattresses are made in the USA.

A Made-in-USA guarantee is often an essential consideration for many Americans selecting a long-term investment like a mattress. Both brands are recognized in the industry for their mattress offerings, but it’s important to dive deeper into a more comprehensive comparison to understand who you’re actually buying from and what you’re actually buying.

Puffy vs Nectar: Materials and Manufacturing

All Puffy mattresses are made with materials sourced in the USA, in addition to being designed, manufactured, and sewn in the USA. The materials in Nectar mattresses, however, are made in China.

Puffy prides itself on ensuring every step of its mattress production is conducted in the USA, from sourcing materials to manufacture and final assembly. It’s as important to us as it is to the customers seeking a quality product they can trust and who want to support the local industry as much as possible.

Nectar mattresses outsource the quality of their mattresses to global suppliers - specifically, China. This will likely ensure low production costs to pass savings on to customers, but Puffy is able to pass even greater savings on to you without neglecting homegrown product design and manufacture.

With such attention to quality and detail, it’s no surprise Puffy is consistently handed Best Mattress awards by Forbes, Good Housekeeping, HGTV, Healthline, and more.

Nectar FTC Charges

It is essential to be able to trust a brand that is selling you a product you will be using daily for years to come. Nectar is aware that the Made in USA guarantee is one that millions of Americans trust and support. Despite not being able to make the claim that every single Nectar mattress is made in the USA, this didn’t stop the brand from taking advantage of that trust with false ‘Made in USA’ claims on its products.

What you need to know:
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued Nectar for these false claims in 2018.
Nectar’s sister company DreamCloud was sued by the FTC again in 2021 for falsely claiming their mattresses are made with ‘100-percent USA-made premium quality materials.’
Nectar made these claims, but the materials in their mattresses actually came from China. They still do.

Almost bought a Nectar. After learning that they are made in China and there were shipping delays, I decided to purchase the Puffy. My wife and I are still getting used to it. It is far superior to any mattress we have ever had, and we are hoping that our back aches will soon be ancient history.

It's American-made as opposed to the other mattresses that compete with Puffy that are made in China. Now more than ever, we need to support companies like Puffy.

Puffy vs Nectar: Compare the Brands

If Nectar is saving on production costs by outsourcing the quality of its materials and products to China, you would expect to see greater savings passed on to you, the consumer, than is evident on their website.
Puffy, however, balances luxurious-quality construction with competitive price points. We guarantee that Puffy mattresses are constructed with US materials, designed in the United States, manufactured in the United States, and sewn in the United States before being shipped to you in 1 - 2 business days. Nectar cannot say the same. 
Puffy also provides a free Luxury Bedding Gifts with every mattress. Nectar mattresses do not include bedding - all items must be purchased separately.
