Best Bed In A Box Canada: Top 3 For 2023 And Details Of The Entire Range

Straight up, in my opinion your top bed in a box options in Canada are: Puffy (the best), GhostBed, and Noa. Here’s a quick intro to them before we go through everything in detail:

Why are these the best? Because after researching and sleeping on online mattresses for four years now, I think these three offer you the sweet spot where value for money and amazing quality meet.

All three are made in Canada, and all three brands have a range of mattresses for every budget and preference. My top pick from each brand is shown in the box above, and I’d personally be happy to have any (or all) of them in my house.

I’ll also take you through the other brands you’ve got available, so you’ve got a full overview and awareness of all your options. Honestly though, you’ll be happy as with one of my top three.

Let’s Start With My Top Choice: Puffy Canada.

#1 Recommendation: Puffy Mattress Canada

Puffy is one of the biggest mattress in a box retailers in Canada and the USA. The mattresses they sell in Canada are also made in Canada, especially for their Canadian customers.

Puffy make a range of mattresses: a basic model, a “Lux” model, and the “Royal”, their most feature packed mattress. All three include a cooling gel layer, and as you step up through the models from the basic to the Royal, more and more features are included.

The basic is a great value three layer mattress with a medium firm feel, while at the other end of the scale the Royal has two extra foam layers for a more plush feel, enhanced breathability and zoning in the support core (my own mattress has this and I can confirm it is a game changer for comfort and support).

If you’re unsure which Puffy mattress is right for you, there’s a handy quiz on their website, but without even hesitating I’d recommend the Royal. Yeah it’s the most expensive of the range, but the features are truly worth it for your sleep.

Puffy sets themselves apart from others in the market by offering an unbeatable lifetime warranty on their mattresses. Puffy prices start from $1045, but Puffy regularly offer deep discounts so you’ll never actually pay that full price.

#2: GhostBed Mattress Canada

GhostBed offer four great mattress options in Canada, including my favorite natural latex mattress in Canada. They’re all made in Canada, apart from the super high-tech GhostBed 3D matrix, which is made in the USA. My top pick of the GhostBed Canada range is the GhostBed Luxe, with its superior cooling features.

The GhostBed mattresses come in a range of firmness options from medium firm to medium plush, making them suitable for everyone. They have an extremely generous 20 year warranty and a 101 night sleep trial.

The GhostBed Luxe, my pick of the range, features:

• A cool touch cover (this truly feels cold, I’ve touched other mattresses with the exact same material, and it’s kinda weird but also reassuring how cold it feels)
• 7 layer design for a medium plush feel (and why you could consider it luxe)
• 13 inch height
• 7.5 inch support core (which is more generous than the 7 inches I’d usually see, and gives you that extra bit of durability)
• The layers include cooling gel memory foam and GhostBeds’ special “bounce” foam, which is a memory foam that will stop you from feeling like you’re sinking into your mattress
• Goes great as a split king mattress on a split king adjustable bed

If you want help choosing the right GhostBed mattress, they also have a handy quiz on their website, which you can take right here.

Another reason I like GhostBed is that they’re a family run company who’ve been in business for more than 20 years, which is a history most bed in a box brands can’t claim. They often run big sales so whenever you click my links you’ll be guaranteed the lowest price for any given day.

#3: Noa Mattress Canada

Canadian owned Noa make three mattresses in their range. Each has a foam upper and a pocket coil support base (hybrid mattress), and comes with a 100 night in-home sleep trial.

I think the mid priced model, the Noa, represents exceptional value for money, and is similar to many mattresses you’ll see on the floor in big stores for many times this price! Here’s what makes it great:

• Latex AND cooling gel memory foam comfort layers
• Strong, individually wrapped pocket coil support system
• Foam encasing of the support coils (a quality feature that shows the company care about looking after the coils)
• Hand tufted cover

The Noa Lite hybrid mattress is cheaper because it has one less comfort layer, and is therefore also the firmest of the 3 Noa mattresses available in Canada. Even though it’s the cheapest of the Noa range, it still has some ultra-lux features, like hand tufted finishing on the cover.

The Noa Luxe hybrid mattress is something pretty special: it has a layer of micro coils in the comfort layer (I used to have a mattress with this feature, it was bliss) AS WELL AS two comfort layers (latex and memory foam) and a zoned pocket coils in the base for targeted support.

Bed In A Box Canada: Your Other Options

The GoodMorning.Com Brands

GoodMorning.Com has been creating memory foam mattresses since 2009. Constantly creating and innovating, this Canadian brand now has seven mattresses available for Canadian customers. They are all made in Canada and offer something to suit everyone. Here’s what Good Morning brings to the Canadian mattress market:

• Juno (Value Mattress): Two layers of foam, medium feel, priced from $249
• Douglas (Cooling Gel Memory Foam): The Douglas mattress has three layers of foam, medium feel, priced from $599
• Brunswick (Classic Spring Comfort): Eurotop design with two comfort layers and pocket coils, medium feel, priced from $599
• Logan & Cove (Luxury Hybrid Pillow Top): Luxury cover and pillow top with multiple foam layers and pocket coils, choose medium plush or luxury firm, priced from $799 – read my detailed review of this luxury mattress without the big price tag here.
• Recore (Performance Latex): Three layers including latex in the top layer, designed for performance, priced from $649
• Novosbed (Premium Memory Foam): Three layers of foam (similar to Douglas) choose soft, medium or firm (and free comfort adjustments), priced from $799
• Apollo (Copper Hybrid): Multiple foam layers with a middle layer of micro-coils, medium feel, priced from $949

You can see that each mattress offers something different than the others. To me, the standouts from the Good Morning collection are the Recore with its latex layer and highly technical cover and the Apollo with its high quality, high density foams and the middle layer of micro-coils. I’ve never seen micro-coils put on top of a foam base, I know they feel great on a coil base so I find this one really unique.

If I was going to buy a mattress from GoodMorning.Com, the Apollo would be my choice (mainly because I’m curious). If you want to buy a Good Morning mattress and are a bit unsure about your options, go with Novosbed, as that’s the one that allows you the free comfort adjustments.

If you want the most CANADIAN mattress you can find, GoodMorning market the Douglas mattress as their most Canadian mattress: it even has red and white trim on the cover.

Silk And Snow

Silk and Snow is an American company who sell their mattresses in both the US and Canada. All Silk and Snow mattresses sold in Canada are made in Canada.

The distinguishing features of Silk and Snow are the high density (= better quality) memory foam they use in their comfort layers of their mattresses, and also the fact that you can choose if you want your mattress as all foam or as a hybrid. Many companies hide the densities of their foams as “intellectual property”, but Silk and Snow proudly display them with great transparency.

Both mattresses have two layers of comfort foams under the antimicrobial cover, then your choice of foam or coil support. All foam models are priced from $800 and the hybrid is priced from $850.

Endy

Endy is a Canadian owned and made brand that offers one all foam mattress.

It has the typical three layers you’d expect from an all foam mattress in a box, but an important feature of Endy is that the top layer of foam is temperature neutral. This means it won’t harden up during a cold winter’s night.

Endy is a popular choice, and was voted one of the most trusted mattress in a box brands in Canada by Bright Spark in 2019.

Endy mattresses are priced from $675.

Fleep

Fleep is another Canadian owned and made brand that offers one all foam mattress. Like Endy, they tell you straight up about the foam densities inside their mattress, and it looks like great quality to me.

The Fleep difference is that it has a four layer construction, and you can flip the mattress to change the feel. One side is softer and the other is firmer. This is perfect if you’re unsure what firmness level you’d like and don’t want to worry about exchanging or returning a mattress that wasn’t right for you.

Fleep mattresses are priced from $699.

Amazon Canada

If you’re looking for a budget priced mattress in a box, Amazon Canada has some brands that offer comfortable mattresses at low price points. These are typically all foam mattresses, and the most popular and best rated brands include:

• Zinus (especially their green tea infused memory foam)
• Linenspa (who also make great mattress toppers)
• Classic Brands (who make a luxurious 14 inch high budget priced mattress)

While you may be able to pick up a Queen or King size mattress for around $300-400 on Amazon, the mattresses above are all made in China and do not come with any sleep trial.

At this price point, I recommend you look at your GoodMorning.Com options above and consider the Juno instead: the Juno is made in Canada and has a 120 night sleep trial, which is pretty much unheard of in the budget price category.

There are some beds in boxes that are made in Canada on Amazon.Ca, these include:

• Polysleep
• Endy (who we talked about above. They also sell on Amazon)
