After much research I decided to order from Spindle, it was on back order for six weeks. Upon setting up the mattress we discovered the springs were smaller (by 5 inches) than the mattress. At the very least this makes the mattress lumpy, non-supportive and extremely uncomfortable. After 2 months of back and forth communication where we requested they send the correct length spring coils, (I sent measurements and took photos of everything and had to send them more than once) the Spindle rep either requested more information or said the "team" needed to review. So after two months of Spindle no commitment we requested a refund. To get a refund we had to document via receipt that we had disposed of the mattress at the dump. Refund was finally given. I do not recommend this company. read more

Had a few years now so I have not had to deal with customer service since the buy out. Best mattress I've ever owned by far though. Took a little adjusting and getting used to but held up extremely well so far been about 5 years. Looking into replacing one layer now to add a little more firmness read more

Ordered a mattress and paid for it but I cannot contact the company because their phone number 978-263-3807 is not a working phone number. They have my money but I have not received my mattress. This company is worth 83 million dollars, but they have no customer service representatives to answer phone calls. They only have an automated message through emails so I cannot ask anyone from their company where my mattress is. I would NOT recommend this company for consumers who want to buy a mattress! read more

I bought this mattress 2 years ago and continue to experience back pain. In the first year of owning the mattress, customer service was responsive and wanted to help by providing suggestions on different configurations of the mattress. The mattress comes in 3 layers that can be arranged differently based on firmness. After much experimentation of the layers, nothing worked. After the 1st year (which is the return period), it was harder to get a hold of someone. I realize now that this 3 layer construction allows the company to buy time by telling customers to keep trying different configurations. I can no longer get a refund on the mattress. It truly is the worst mattress I've ever owned and continue to have back pain every morning. It was a waste of $2,000 and added to a lot of painful mornings. read more

The Spindle mattress is a build it yourself mattress. It has 3 layers of latex and the mattress cover, shipped in separate boxes. It's pretty easy to put together. The hardest part is getting each layer properly positioned on top of each other, but it's pretty straightforward to do this; it just may take some time to get right. The latex layers, each 3" thick, can be different densities, and one can fine tune support by adjusting which layer is where in the "sandwich", and each layer also has different support depending on which side is up, so in other words, quite a large range of adjustment. All the layers zip up easily into the cover. We also bought their foundation, and all this is on a separately purchased steel bed frame. We had been sleeping on a local brand queen size latex mattress and upgraded to a king size bed, so needed a new mattress. We filled out Spindle's comfort quiz and it said "medium", so that's what we ordered. Slept on it for a while, but it was not supportive enough, giving a hammock feel and a sore back. The layer layout recommended was Medium/Firm/Medium, and we tried M/M/F (firm as top layer) and this improved things a bit, but not enough. We sent off some email to their support, and they replied saying that we should call them because the nuances of comfort are best discussed person to person. We did this, and described our situation, including that our prior Queen was only a 6" mattress on slats, and after some discussion, the conclusion was that we should get another layer of Firm to replace one of our Mediums, to make a M/F/F sandwich. This modification was free. With this modification, we are completely happy with our Spindle. Cost is less than if we had bought a comparable mattress from the local place who produced our Queen, and Spindle support was great.

I can't say enough about the great service, value and fantastic quality from Spindle mattress! Before my purchase, I made a road trip to Spindle's showroom. The knowledgeable salesman spent hours with me letting me sample difference mattress types and customizations. He even stayed open nearly an hour late to accommodate me. After I ordered, UPS made a shipping error and he handled that very well also. The king size mattress has been great. It arrived in four boxes (three for the mattress and one for two king size pillows) and each box was easily carried to the second floor of my home, by me, with no help. Okay, to be completely honest I'm in good shape, but it should be doable by anyone in reasonable condition. For two people its a cakewalk. One of my concerns was getting a king size mattress up my stairs, and with this latex mattress it was very easy. In fact, if I move, it will be easy to get it down the stairs also. Once I got it upstairs, I was able to assemble it myself, but it would have been easier with a second person. Still, it was doable. The instructions are clear; really, its just stacking up the layers. It fit on my platform bed perfectly. Normal king size fitted and top sheets work just fine. I have been sleeping on it for five weeks now and I still find it very comfortable. It has not been too hot or too cold, its not hard and I don't sink or sag into the middle of it at all. I can roll around on it easily and it conforms to my shape right away. I am thinking of adding a 3 inch topper, but the bed is so comfortable I have not yet bothered. I would buy this mattress again in a heartbeat! read more

Count me as another happy Spindle Mattress customer. I was burned by a year old mattress from everyone' favorite local Imax theater, and was trying out the various disruptive dot coms trying to change the mattress industry. The first was a famous one-size-fits-all mattress was too firm (my hardwood floors had more give). The second was a company that sold soft, medium and firm. Unfortunately soft was too soft for me and although they were willing to take it back and send a medium, if the medium was still too soft, then I would have been stuck with it. That's why I went with Spindle. With Spindle you get 3 layers of latex that can be configured. So if the mattress you order is too soft or too firm, you can configure the existing three layers or get one new layer for a small fee. I agree with the others about the awesome customer service. I ordered a medium full size. However, I became concerned about the weight. Because Spindle is all latex, the 3 layers together can be quite heavy. My full size mattress was going to weigh 120 lbs. My old Ikea bed was reinforced, but I was a little concerned, so I contacted Neal at Spindle. And it turned out I had reason to be concerned. The Ikea platform was unlikely to old up a 120 lb latex mattress. I added the Spindle foundation to the order. I've had the mattress for about 2 months now. After about 3 weeks, my lower back began to hurt. And this is when my decision to go with Spindle paid off. On Spindle's website are instructions on how to re-arrange the existing layers of their medium mattress so it would be more firm (medium-firm if you will). I followed the instructions and finally have the mattress I wanted and needed. Do yourself, and your back, a favor and check out Spindle. read more

We are incredibly happy with our Spindle. We stopped by the showroom and Neal was great about answering all of our questions but also disappearing in the office and giving us a chance to lie on all of the floor samples and test them out without feeling rushed or awkward. He also helped us figure out the best softness (Firm) based on how we sleep, which was really helpful because we liked the feeling of both Firm and Extra Firm. On top of that he was able to time the shipping so that the mattress arrived after we got back from vacation - this is the kind of service that separates a small business from the big guys! Putting the mattress together was not my favorite part (took us about 30 minutes, my husband got frustrated after 5), but if it saves me $1K+ I'll take it! Sleeping on it has been incredible, and the fact that we are not inhaling anything weird makes it all the better. Overall, couldn't recommend Spindle more! PS - if you call/email in advance they can let you know when they will be open on weekends read more

I ordered a Spindle Mattress a few weeks ago after a lot of research. Spindle has amazing customer service and the mattress arrived fast after I ordered it. Also, the mattress was really easy to put together. My husband and I are so happy with this purchase! The mattress is wonderful and I would not hesitate to buy another mattress from Spindle again. read more

Rejoice! New mattress means end to year + of research and indecision. A++++ experience at Spindle Mattress in Acton. Local, friendly, affordable, high-quality, comfortable, made in U.S., no toxic materials. I'll stop before I sound like an infomercial, but I just can't believe I finally found the trifecta of small independent business, eco/labor conscious manufacturer, and affordable. It was a breeze to set up. Easy website & free shipping anywhere in the U.S. (f you're in the area go check out the clean, no pressure, comfortable showroom/warehouse.) read more

I found that the medium setup was a bit to firm for me (2 med/1firm), but I called Spindle and they sent another medium layer for only 75.00. I switched it out and it is perfect. Bottom line, great mattress and the customer service is very personable and responsive. read more

Spindle Mattress sells latex mattresses, the best type in existence (vs inner spring and memory foam) in opinion of both consumers and experts. See http://www.sleeplikethedead.com/mattress-reviews-latex.html http://www.themattressunderground.com/ Their maresses are a bargain, costing 50% of the similar "brand name" models. There is no need to haggle over the price, no need to wait for holiday "sales", this is a beatiful buying experience. Beside being a joy to sleep on, their mattresses are highly adjustable. They are made from 3-4 layers of latex foam of variable firmness, and so not only can you pick firmness that is most comfortable before buying it, but if are not quite happy, you can buy a replacement layer of different firmness after sleeping on the mattress for several months at home. One of the HUGE benefits of buying mattress in layers, is that the mattress is delivered in fairly small boxes, each layer in a separate roll. My wife has been dreaming of a king size bed for years, if not decades, but the staircase clearance does not allow anything bigger than the queen size through. With Spingle Mattress, I get to carry several compact boxes upstairs, unroll the layers, stuff them into the mattress cover, and earn so many brownie points that I can stop loading the dishwasher for the rest of my life. The pre-sale service is fantastic. There is no pressure whatsoever. The owner, Neal is a fourth generation mattress maker, and has true expert knowledge, that no salesmen in a box store may ever match. He builds and sells a fantastic product, patiently lets customers try every possible combination of layers, explains advantages vs other mattress types and brands. I am an engineer, and he answered my entirely too technical questions with both expertise and patience. So, if you want best possible, without qualifications, good night sleep (and other on-mattress activities) head to Spindle Mattress. read more

I had been sleeping on my old inner spring mattress for well over a decade and it was time to find a new one. After a lot of research and testing, I settled on some version of a latex foam mattress. Of course my first stop was at a very large furniture retailer that will remain unnamed. While their prices were competitive, I couldn't help but feel like I was being sold at every turn, and to be honest, I don' really need an IMAX theater, ice cream shop, and obstacle course to help me buy a mattress. Based on my research, I knew I wanted a 100% latex mattress, and everything offered by the national chains in our price range seemed to be a top layer of latex over a polyurethane filer. To get a 100% latex mattress, many of those big retailers only had options that were 2 to 3 times the cost. Crazy! Spindle, on the other hand, has a 100% latex mattress at a reasonable price. I guess when you don't spend money on wacky themes and giant screens in your furniture store, you can afford to be more competitive with pricing. I ended up purchasing a king size mattress and foundation after a trip to their factory store in Acton, and I couldn't have been happier with the buying experience. There was no pressure and we got really honest feedback from Neal as we went through the selection process. But that's not where the story ends. Spindle ships their mattresses in a unique way which actually saves a lot of space. That's really innovative, and it ensures that the mattresses get out extremely quickly. Of course, there was a little hiccup with FedEx. Unfortunately they delivered my mattress to a very similar address to mine by mistake. It was just a transposition of some numbers, but it meant that my mattress was sitting out on someone else's porch! Not knowing what to do, I tried to call Spindle. It was after hours so they were closed, but I left a message. Worried since they are closed on the weekends, I also sent an email to their main address, pleading for help. This is where Spindle really shines. I got an email back from Neal that same night at around 10:30 p.m., offering help and his personal contact information to help us sort out the delivery issue. This is unprecedented, and very far beyond my expectations. I honestly was prepared to wait all weekend until Spindle opened up again, but they got back to me right away, and helped us get things back on track. While Neal wasn't in the next day, he had already coordinated with FedEx and given my case to a colleague, Kim, who followed up with me bright and early with a firm solution. Wow. Just wow. And on top of all that, I got a really great value on the mattress I bought. 10/10 Would buy again & strongly recommend. read more

Neil,is beyond wonderful! we bought 2 king size latex mattresses. He was very helpful and knowledgable. Sleeping on these mattresses is a dream. if I ever have a question Neil will immediately answer, call. It is not like in other places then after you purchase something , good bye. We had a problem with the bed, not the mattress and Neil helped us solve it. I wish he would sell other things because I would buy anything from that store. read more

Great mattress and a great price. A quality local product, and well worth the trip to avoid the big box stores. Ask for Neal when you go to the Acton location. read more

Spindle Mattress has a nice concept. You build your own mattress and save money. They are pleasant enough to deal with. The problem is the synthetic foam they use is low density material even though it is called "firm". The foam bottoms out, sags and gets even worse with time. It is like sleeping in a hole that gets deeper week by week. After a few months, the whole thing went to the dump - a complete waste of money. read more

After many years of sleeping on an old, uncomfortable mattress my wife and I decided it was time to buy a new one. And given the importance of a good night's sleep, we agreed that we were willing to spend money on a quality mattress. At first we tried the big name furniture/mattress stores and to be honest, it mostly seemed like they were using their mattress selling tactics to sell us any mattress within our budget. After narrowing our search down to a few mattresses I did some googling to try and finalize our selection. During said googling I learned an incredible amount about mattresses and at this point I had realized that buying a mattress from a major retailer was not in my (or anyones) best interests. Rule number one, if the person selling you the mattress can't or won't tell you the exact specifications of every material within the mattress, do not buy that mattress. One of the most important aspects of buying a mattress, aside from personal comfort, is knowing not only what materials are used within, but also the specifications (weight, density, etc) of those materials. This is vital to understanding how long that extremely comfortable mattress will remain extremely comfortable. Many, if not all, of the big name brands all use cheap polyfoam in the upper layers that is guaranteed to breakdown in a year or so and you will be stuck with an uncomfortable mattress for which you very well may have paid more than $3000. As a result of all my mattress research, my wife actually began calling me "Mattress Man". So if you can't trust the big name stores for a good quality mattress at a good value, then where does one go? The answer is simple. Factory direct. And if you are interested in an all-latex mattress, the answer is Spindle Mattress. I finally got a chance to visit Spindle about two weeks ago. First let me say that Neal is a great guy. He is extremely knowledgable, patient and honest. He answered every question I had and was willing to get as technical as I could handle. The depth and quality of his explanations and emails was beyond thorough. He clearly loves what he does and it shows in the way he approaches his clients and business model. And on top of it all, he is selling a very high quality product at an amazing value. In the previous 3 weeks I have been to about eight mattress stores and Spindle was, by far, the best based on product and customer service. The setup they have at Spindle is really smart. Their main mattress, the Abscond, uses three 3" layers of latex. Spindle offers both synthetic and natural latex, each in firm, medium and soft firmness (or ILD if you are familiar with latex). They advertise that their ergonomically designed 7-zone latex foam conforms to your body, and it's true. With each mattress consisting of three layers of latex, you have a lot of possible combinations available to find the one that best fits your needs for both comfort and cost. My wife and I spent over an hour trying different combinations until we narrowed it down to two choices. Not trying to rush us, Neal told us to take as long as we need to make up our minds. After leaving, my wife and I were both convinced that we would be giving our business to Spindle. We talked things over and after a few more emails with Neal I decided to head back to Spindle to finalize our decision. Once again Neal patiently spent over an hour with me as I retried the combinations that we had previously liked, plus a few others. And thanks to his expertise and ability to understand my needs I had found the perfect mattress. Not only did I get a very high quality mattress that will last me many years, I did so while saving myself nearly $2000 compared to the rest of the lesser quality mattresses I was looking at in the big name stores. Never underestimate the little guy. Spindle Mattress is a win win. If you are in the market for an all latex mattress, you cannot go wrong with Spindle. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact them. You will not be disappointed. And I am definitely not "Mattress Man". That would be Neal. Thank you Spindle! read more

We have had our Spindle mattress for about two months now, and absolutely love it. We searched far and wide and for way too long for a new mattress. We couldn't be happier with our choice. Have never slept better. We are now latex mattress converts. And in addition to making a great product, Spindle also goes above and beyond to provide excellent customer service via phone and email. I will try to remember to post a follow-up review in the future to report on how the mattress has held up. But so far, would highly recommend this mattress. read more

I purchased my latex mattress from Spindle almost a year ago, It is the best purchase I ever made. After doing a lot of research online I was set to order when I noticed the Spindle Mattress website. Living only 20 minutes away, I went over there and was impressed by the owner, he was knowledgeable and very accommodating. The prices were also much less than an online purchase plus shipping for the same product. I purchased a king size and took it home! It is the most comfortable mattress I have ever had, after almost a year it is still perfect. You can't go wrong at Spindle. read more

I received my Spindle mattress about 2 weeks ago after doing TONS of online research and trying several beds in stores. I move around to different sleep positions at night, so memory foam was not going to be a good fit and I didn't love the feel of sinking into a mattress. After trying out another latex mattress in a showroom, I knew that's what I wanted and started to research less expensive options that would still be high quality. After speaking with the store twice I decided to order because with a year long sleep trial, I could not go wrong. I ordered a medium, which ended up being too firm for me. So I just added a 3in Talalay topper and my mattress is perfect!! I did not call Spindle to exchange for a softer mattress (I'm sure they would've happily done so), but I like a plusher feel and the Talalay latex topper gives me that. In combination with the medium mattress I have the perfect support/softness for sleeping on my side or back and am sleeping through the night. Would buy again! read more

I ordered a Spindle Mattress in March 2015. I was a little uneasy about ordering a mattress on line but after reviewing all the literature on the Spindle website and checking materials and pricing of other brands, I was convinced Spindle was the way to go. When the product arrived (mattress and foundation) the hardware packet for the foundation was one bolt short, which caused a delay in the assembly process. The people at Spindle were great about overnighting a bolt. Well, I have to say the wait was worth it. The mattress, after a relatively easy assembly, has provided the best night sleep I have had anywhere at anytime. The product and the company are top shelf. The true test of company is their customer service, especially how they respond to those annoying glitches encountered along the way. Spindle really stepped up. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. read more
