If you’re on the hunt for a quality foam mattress, you might have heard of Douglas and Puffy. Douglas is a Canadian brand while Puffy is American, but both make their mattresses in Canada (when ordered by Canadians). Douglas Original and Puffy Cloud are both medium-firm mattresses with very good edge support.

Both mattresses have their strengths, but in this side-by-side comparison, Douglas Original scored higher overall, earning a 9.9/10 rating compared to Puffy’s 5.7/10. Douglas stood out for its price, construction, performance, longer sleep trial and warranty, as well as free shipping and free returns with full refunds.

Puffy Cloud is priced at $2,049 for a queen size and comes with a 101-night sleep trial and a lifetime warranty. Your Puffy mattress will be made in the country you order it from, either Canada or the United States. Plus, Puffy mattresses ship to most locations in Canada. 

In contrast, Douglas offers a longer 365-night sleep trial along with a 20-year warranty, and it includes a free bedding bundle with your purchase. For $799 for a queen size, Douglas ships to most Canadians for free, with the mattress arriving right at your doorstep.

Overall Ratings

We include edge support and motion isolation in our overall mattress score, and we present these results using a simple colour system: green (5.0 and above), yellow (3.0–4.9), and red (2.9 and below). Cooling features aren’t part of the final rating, but we still use the same colour scale to show how each mattress performs. Firmness and bounce are more a matter of personal preference, so we display those scores in grey and exclude them from the overall score.

Mattress Overview

Product Details: Douglas Original

Douglas Original is a medium-firm foam mattress designed for coolness and comfort in all sleep positions. The mattress uses ecoLight® cooling gel foam to regulate temperature and keep you cool, and responsive Elastex® foam to relieve pressure points. This mattress comes with a top cover that's cooling, removable, and machine washable.

At just $799 for a queen, Douglas Original comes with a 365–night sleep trial, a 20–year warranty, and a free bedding bundle, which includes a cotton sheet set, duvet cover, down alternative duvet, pillow(s), pillow protector(s), and a mattress protector. You can also upgrade to the Douglas Alpine or Douglas Summit models for extra features, like more cooling and plushness.

Product Details: Puffy Cloud

The Puffy Cloud is a medium-firm foam mattress designed to provide comfort and support for most sleep styles. Puffy has a layer of gel-infused foam that helps draw heat away from the body, keeping the surface cooler through the night. That said, this is Cloud's only identifiable cooling feature. 

At $2,049 for a queen size, Puffy Cloud is the brand's entry-level mattress, although it's more expensive than many competing Canadian options. It comes with a 101-night sleep trial and a lifetime warranty, plus the possibility of a free accessory with your mattress, like a pillow.

Mattress Construction

Douglas Original and Puffy Cloud mattresses are both designed with a 3-layer combination foam structure. Each one is 10" tall and made with CertiPUR-US® certified foams. Although they're both made in Canada, only Douglas is a Canadian brand.

Douglas Original

• 1st Layer: 2" ecoLight® cooling gel foam to offer a memory-foam-like feel, which provides body-contouring comfort and pressure relief. The cooling gel infusion also makes this layer breathable and cool to the touch.
• 2nd Layer: 2" Elastex® transition foam, which adds a level of bounciness and responsiveness similar to latex, while being latex-free.
• 3rd Layer: 6" of motion-isolation support foam that provides support, stability, and significantly reduces motion transfer across the mattress. This high-density base helps to minimize disturbances from movements on the other side of the bed, which is one reason why all Douglas mattresses are known for their great motion isolation.

Douglas Original has a white, mountainscape cover with a bold red zipper that runs along the sidewall. The top cover is removable and machine washable, making it easy to keep clean. It's made with plant-based Infinitex™ fibres that help wick away moisture and keep the surface cool and breathable. This is a valuable feature for hot sleepers or for those who simply want a cooler sleep surface. This stretch-knit fabric feels soft but holds up well over time.

Puffy Cloud

• 1st Layer: 2″ of gel-infused foam that contours to your body and helps draws heat away your body.
• 2nd Layer: 2″ of Puffy's Climate Comfort foam that adds cushioning between the comfort and support layers. while Puffy says this layer improves airflow, they don't explain how.
• 3rd Layer: 6″ of dense support foam that gives the mattress its structure and helps prevent deep sinkage.

Puffy Cloud has a simple two-toned design. The white top is embroidered with the brand's cloud emblem, while the light grey sides feature a geometric pattern. Puffy describes Cloud's cover as breathable, although it's made from 100% polyester and doesn't include any cooling features. On the plus side, the cover is stain-resistant, removable, and machine washable, making it easier to clean.

Mattress Performance

In third-party engineer testing that we commissioned, both the Douglas Original and Puffy Cloud mattresses landed in the medium-firm range. That level of firmness tends to work well for most sleep styles, whether you sleep on your back, stomach, or side.

Douglas Original and Puffy Cloud also both earned very good edge support scores in testing. That said, Douglas scored higher than Puffy. Strong edge support helps if you like to sit or sleep near the sides of your bed by adding extra stability and reducing the feeling of slipping off.

Where Douglas Differs:

• Douglas outperformed Puffy Cloud for motion isolation, earning a score of 8.3/10. Good motion isolation means one person can move on their side of the bed without disturbing their partner, which is especially helpful for light sleepers, couples, or anyone who shares their bed.
• Douglas has more cooling features than Puffy Cloud and earned a score of 5.0/10. Its moisture-wicking CoolSense® cover, breathable Elastex® foam, and ecoLight® cooling gel foam all work together to help regulate temperature while you sleep. If you like to sleep cool, you might want to opt for a mattress with even more cooling features, like the Douglas Summit.

Where Puffy Cloud Differs:

• Puffy Cloud was more responsive, scoring an above-average 4.7/10 for bounce, versus Douglas Original at 3.1/10. A higher bounce score makes it easier to switch positions or get in and out of bed. Douglas, while lower in bounce, may appeal more to light sleepers who prefer less motion transfer.
• Puffy Cloud scored a lower 1.2/10 for cooling. However, it did earn some points for its gel-infused foam, which helps improve body heat dissipation and temperature regulation.

Delivery & Other Policies

Douglas

Douglas ships mattresses with FedEx and delivers for free to most areas in Canada, usually within 2–10 business days. Douglas offers a longer sleep trial of the two mattress brands at 365 nights, plus a longer 20-year warranty. If you return your Douglas mattress during the sleep trial, Douglas will arrange to pick it up and issue a full refund, all for free.

Plus, Douglas organizes any mattresses returned during the trial to be donated to a local charity. In the case there aren't any charities near you, the company will have the mattress responsibly recycled.

Final Recommendation

When you stack the Puffy Cloud mattress against Douglas Original, there are some similarities, like their overall construction and longer-than-average warranty lengths. Both mattresses are solid medium-firm choices suitable for any sleep style. But the Douglas Original mattress takes the lead with better performance in third-party engineering tests, a 365-night sleep trial, and more temperature-regulating features.

Plus, all Douglas mattresses come with a free bedding bundle, which includes a cotton sheet set, duvet cover, down alternative duvet, pillow(s), pillow protector(s), and a mattress protector: all essential items for a comfortable sleep setup. Overall, at $799 for a queen size, Douglas Original is an accessible option that provides everything you need for a restful night's sleep.
