We have had this mattress for about 3/4 weeks. I did a ton of research on line comparing different options. I am so glad we got this mattress. First, let me sum up all the usual stuff. online delivery convenience/ awesome, packaging and unpacking/quick and easy. Now on to the decision that I was struggling with: memory foam top or latex? I ended up going with the latex for what I thought was a simple compromise. If its not what I like, I can add a memory foam topper. This bed is FIRM. My daughters (both right around 100 pounds each) think this thing is like a rock. I (way more than 100 lbs) think its perfect. My husband is 225 says its the right amount of give and support. We both have back problems, he has shoulder and hip issues. We both tend to start on our backs and alternate between that and the side. The first night we slept on it we both noticed that our back felt like it was stretching out. in a good way. I feel like I have more flexibility in my back. I think its because of the support. My backside sinks in just enough. The amount of tossing and turning has been greatly reduced with this mattress. My husbands main comment is about the edge support. This mattress doesnt sag towards the edge at all when you are laying down. The other point that I was worried about was sleeping hot. I am about to the age where this is going to be a problem, but so far I feel cooler than on our previous memory foam pad topper. I also dont feel like I am getting sucked into or stuck in this mattress. So far so good. The price was right, the convenience was aming and neither of us are complaining about how we feel when we get up. I am VERY pleased with the mattress.
