Not good for back issues

It felt supportive for my back when I tried it at the mattress store. Of course, my back problems have escalated and I now feel firmer support is necessary. The mattress is worn in the areas where my husband and I sleep. It’s also too warm.

Big disappointment with this purchase.I had to get rid of it after 4 years because it was uncomfortable and caused both me and my husband immense backache. This mattress was a waste of money.Prepare for an unhappy buy with this product.

Sagging feeling after 4yrs

We bought this king mattress from a dealer to include boxspring. We used to have a queen that caved after a decade. This mattress was a hybrid, cool to sleep and supportive. Overtime, (4yrs) my side became completely caved in. My wife was unconvinced until we switched sides and then she understood how bad the the mattress had become. Would not recommend a mattress does not last at least 5-7 years.

Gets less comfortable as the might goes on

This mattress feels lovely and soft at first and it really fooled me in the store. Now I hate it. It's soft when I first lie down but if I don't fall asleep quickly I start to feel like I'm lying on a bed of concrete.

The mattress is hard and unforgiving.

I have been sleeping on this mattress for 4 years, waking with so many aches and pains, going to the doctor because of the pain. I decided to start sleeping in my guest room on a different mattress and it is amazing what the difference has been after waking. This mattress has become hard over the years, it has sunk in and does not bounce back. I think the shape of my body is embedded on the bed. I understand why it is discontinued.

Replacing after 5 years

Purchased this mattress. Quite upset when it arrived because it was going into a Scandinavian style bedf rame with slats - their version of king size seems to be different. Called and complained company sent another -exactly the same -mattress measured 59"x78.5" vs a regular 60x80". Complained but company insisted it fell within their 'specs'. Ultimately bought a new bed to accommodate this mattress. It is now 5 years later and we just purchased a new mattress because we couldn't stand it. Each of us has a sag on our sleeping "spot" and we are of average height and weight (165 & 190). New bed has curved slats so I suspect it needs a firmer base but we were also always HOT and had a breathable natural wool bed mattress pad. Also could alwys feel with my husband got up and out of bed. It will now go to landfill because new company donated mattresses in good condition but people who need donated mattresses do not need king size!

Gives me a hug every night

This bed is my dream bed! I sleep more soundly and feel more refreshed in the morning. And most of my hot flashes are gone! Absolutely love this bed and would highly recommend it.
