My Green Mattress is a small American business that has worked with a number of people who live in tiny houses. One of their employees, Brad Bonic, is a tiny house enthusiast and remarkably helpful. He recommends their Simple Sleep Latex model, which is under 8 inches. Their mattresses carry the prestigious Greenguard certification, among many other environmental certifications, which gives consumers confidence that their mattresses will not off-gas into their small, enclosed sleeping space, a concern for many tiny house dwellers.
Many people who live in tiny houses choose a futon mattress and The Futon Shop offers a remarkable selection. The majority of their mattresses are under 8 inches and are relatively light-weight in comparison to other mattresses, making them easy to hoist into a small lofted sleeping space. They offer organic and conventional options at many price points.
