Get past the smell it sleeps great

If money wasn't a factor we probably wouldn't have purchased this particular mattress brand, we would have gone with a more 'natural' fiber (and more expensive) and not this latex type because the smell is very strong! We aired it out for a whole day when it arrived and then every day after that for 2 weeks I kept the covers pulled off so the smell would release before I had to climb into bed at night. It has been a month and the smell is much less now, and I am able to make the bed during the day and know that when I pull the covers back at night it won't knock me over with what can only be described as a strong paint odor. I suffer from constant neck and shoulder pain and now after a month of sleeping on this mattress my shoulder pain is so much better, my neck pain has improved, but that is still an issue and I am looking for a better pillow. The mattress does retain heat and we had to adjust our bedding. I was sleeping with a down comforter, but that is now stored away and I brought out a lighter bedspread and blanket. My partner puts out his own heat so it was a double whammy before switching the blankets! I do miss my down comforter. Overall I am happy with how the mattress conforms to your body and also allows easy movement. I no longer feel my partners tossing and turning at night, which often woke me up, and do fall asleep faster, most nights. We are curious how it will hold up in the months, years ahead and hope we can stop back here and continue to give a good review of its durability and comfort.
