Just the Right Support

Luxury firm is the right firmness for me. Our prior mattress was too soft and some of the ones we tried in the store were too firm. This one seems to be just right so far. Very comfortable but it does not feel like there is any cooling or ventilation. Overall a very good mattress.

Restful Sleep at Last!!!

After 15 years of searching for the perfect mattress and more than spending $20,000 on various mattresses (8 to be exact), I found the most ideal one when I came across the Simmons Beautyrest Black Hybrid Gladney 14" luxury firm mattress at a nearby Mattress Firm store. I sustained several herniated discs & stenosis and joint injuries during my active duty military career which made for extremely restless nights. This mattress is the right combination of soft and firm to provide comfort to my joints and stability to my spine! I feel blessed to have finally found a mattress that allows me to effectively manage my back issues without making them worse!

Love it, big step up

My wife brought her pillow top with her when we moved in together a handful of years ago and i never really loved it. It was about 10 years old when we replaced it and my god I didnt know what I've been missing. Huge step up in comfort. I don't wake her up anymore when i have to take a leak in the middle of the night either.

Like sleeping on a cloud

This was the only mattress I've ever tested in a showroom that the minute I laid on it, every muscle relaxed and I was instantly sleepy. Receiving my brand new one was no different. They're wasn't any breaking in period, it was amazing from the first night. It's extremely expensive but absolutely worth it. I've never felt a more comfortable mattress than this one. It cradles my body with softness, but supports my spine at the same time.

High and HEAVY.

15"" is too tall for most sheet pockets. Had to order sheets and mattress pad to fit. Normal box springs were made bed too high to get into. Short box springs are better but dust ruffle is too long. Incurred quite an expense dressing this bed.

Sadly way too hot

This mattress is like a cloud to sleep on. I love its feel, but I can't sleep through the night without waking up sweating. I have to have a fan on to sleep on this mattress. Such a disappointment as I love jumping into bed it's so darn comfy. Tried a Leesa mattress before this. I didn't have the hot issues but I did have neck and shoulder pain because the mattress was too hard. Hopefully third time will be the charm. I'm going to try the Serra icomfort blue max touch 3000.

Double Whammy!!

I couldn't find a place to leave a review where I purchased the mattress from so I'll leave it here instead ;) I suffer from insomnia and back pain. I chose this bed mainly because it was a hybrid. I had determined I needed memory foam. I needed to not feel my boyfriend getting into bed. And I needed a bed to help me stay asleep. So far so good. I have the kind of insomnia where after I fall asleep if I'm disturbed in the slightest and causes me to wake up, I'm awake for good. This bed has helped tremendously with those issues. The memory foam helps me hunker in for the night (I'm not a toss & turner), it fills my shape to take pressure off my back, and I'm never awoken by disturbance in the night. For the record I don't have or sleep with pets or kids. My back pain is from scoliosis not from a back injury.
