Before we got this bed, I had a Sealy plush mattress, which in my opinion, was the most comfortable mattress ever! Even on nights when I couldn't sleep, I could still lie in the bed and feel comfortable and not hurt. With this Serta mattress, I can not lie there too long if I can't fall asleep. It's not because it's a Serta...it's because it's a very firm mattress. I know some people love firm mattresses, but I hate firm mattresses, no matter who makes them. I could not easily move around on it and I need to be able to move around. I would also wake up with bad indigestion, which I never get. I only got it from this bed. We had to buy an expensive topper to put on top of it just so I could actually sleep. We didn't buy a foam mattress because those toppers are too foamy and hot and germy. We bought a goose feather topper to make it somewhat able to sleep on it. I still do NOT like this mattress...I wish we would've gotten the plush one...I just let my fiance pick it out and he picked the firm one.
