“I have never slept so good! The balance between cushy and firm just hit a new level! I feel good that I am NOT sleeping on and breathing in toxic fumes from an unconsciously made chemical infused mattress! This is like the Earth 3D printed me a square of fluff to lay on! Birch, yo da bomb! May you stay true to your brand values always!” — Jodi O. · birchliving.com

“This order replaces an old standard twin mattress. I’ve had a T&N full-size and a twin for several years. I like the convenience of the product arriving in a compact box and unrolling to full size, easy to place and unwrap. I also like the comfort of the mattress, solid and flat unlike standard cushion-top products. Very pleased with my purchase.” — Robert W · tuftandneedle.com
