Casper Mattresses
Casper is widely credited with creating the 'bed in a box' category when it launched in 2014, pioneering the model of foam mattresses compressed, rolled, and shipped directly to consumers' doors. The brand built its early reputation on the original all-foam mattress with zoned support — firmer under the hips, softer under the shoulders. Today Casper offers a broader lineup including the Wave Hybrid (flagship) and the Element (entry-level), and operates physical retail stores. Though the category it created is now crowded, Casper remains one of the most recognized names in the direct-to-consumer sleep space.

Casper — Frequently Asked Questions
Is Casper still the best mattress brand?
Casper was first to market but faces strong competition. It remains a solid choice — especially the Wave Hybrid — but brands like Nectar, Helix, and Saatva offer comparable or better value at similar price points.
What's the difference between Casper One and Casper Wave?
The Casper One (formerly Original) is the entry-level model with basic zoned foam layers. The Wave Hybrid adds natural latex, pocketed coils, and a more complex 5-zone support profile at roughly double the price.
Does Casper have stores?
Yes. Casper operates physical retail locations in major US cities where you can test mattresses before buying.
What is Casper's return policy?
Casper offers a 100-night sleep trial with free pickup returns.
Is Casper good for couples?
The Wave Hybrid is excellent for couples — the zoned support and motion-isolating coils accommodate different sleep positions, and the hybrid construction provides more edge support than all-foam options.
