Make no mistake this bed is quite firm at first. There is a reason Serta wants you to sleep in it for at least 30 days prior to return. However, if you have back pain and are looking for support and comfort look no further! I've had back pain for yrs and after only a few weeks in this bed it is GONE! I think the gel does work to stay cooler as i live in the PNW with no ac and have no problem. The bed will take a couple of weeks to get used to but after that you should be in love with the bed...and best part is if your not just return it before 120 days. And a 25 yr warranty, that's great! Bottom line is if you have back pain and are looking for a great bed with great support that is amazing to sleep in give this bed a try. If you don't have back pain and are looking for a plush super soft bed this may not be a good fit. Hope this help.
