Pros and cons
Buffy
Pros
- Sheet sets start at $40, a low entry point for a full bedding set
- Returns run 50 days, well past the return window most bedding brands give
- Free delivery, listed with a spend threshold of $0, so nothing is added at checkout
Cons
- The 8 night trial is short against the site average of 60 nights
- Toppers are not among the sheets, duvets and duvet covers sold, unlike Coop Sleep Goods
- Only US and CA are served, so there is no route outside North America
The Little Green Sheep
Pros
- A long trial of 100 days nights at home, well above the 100 typical of the mattress ranking.
- Return postage is free at £0, so a trial costs nothing extra if the fit is wrong.
- Support runs on email, phone and chat, giving more ways to reach a person than most brands in the ranking.
Cons
- The 5 years warranty is below the 10 across the mattress ranking, and well short of lifetime cover.
- Delivery reaches GB only, so buyers outside the UK are not covered.
- Firmness covers medium and firm, so there is no soft or medium-firm option.
Who each suits
Buffy
Who it suits
- Home owners and renters in US and CA replacing a whole bed at once
- Readers who put certification labels above thread count
- Shoppers who want to decide from home without visiting a showroom
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers outside US and CA, who cannot be served at all
- People after a topper, since toppers sit outside sheets, duvets and duvet covers
- Anyone wanting a long in home trial, because 8 nights is brief next to 60
The Little Green Sheep
Who it suits
- UK households shopping a natural-material mattress with a long home trial
- Parents furnishing a cot bed who want cotton and wool bedding in the same order
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone outside GB, who will not find delivery
- Buyers who want a soft or medium-firm feel, since firmness covers medium and firm
- Anyone after a very long warranty, given 5 years against lifetime cover

Questions about each
Buffy
How much do Buffy sheet sets cost?+
Sheet sets start at $40, which is the entry point shown for the range and a low opening order for anyone trying the brand. Larger sizes and linen options sit above that figure, so the starting price is a floor rather than a typical basket. Delivery is free, with a spend threshold of $0.
How long do I have to return a Buffy order?+
You have 50 days to return an order, which is longer than the 30 day median across the market. The window comes with a return charge of $0, so returns are handled at no added cost. The window covers a real settling in period rather than a quick change of mind.
The Little Green Sheep
How long is the trial period on the mattress?+
The Little Green Sheep offers a trial of 100 days nights at home, which is longer than the 100 across the mattress ranking. The return window is the same length at 100 days, so the two limits do not clash. Sleeping on it for months is a realistic option here.
What does returning a mattress cost?+
Return postage is free, listed at £0. That matters more for a mattress than for smaller bedding, because the cost of sending one back would usually fall on the buyer. Alongside a trial of 100 days nights, the free return removes most of the risk from trying it.
