Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've used this mattress for about 2 weeks before writing my review so I could make it as accurate as possible. So far, I've loved it! It arrived a day before it was expected. The box is heavy, so I definitely needed help getting it in the house and taking the mattress out of the box. The plastic covering had instructions detailing how to remove it, and after 2 cuts the bed was inflated! I let it sit for 24 hours before placing it on my frame. I will note that my bed never inflated to the full 12 inches - it's 10 inches all around. I don't mind that though, as I have a tall bed frame already and it's a good quality mattress regardless. There was a "new mattress smell", but it was by no means overwhelming and I actually found it pleasant. By the time I got my sheets on I could hardly notice it. The matress itself isn't the firmest thing I've slept on, nor is it the softest. The coils make the mattress bouncier, and the thin layer of memory foam on top cushions you just enough to be comfortable. As long as you like a medium-firm mattress, it's pretty much perfect. I chose to put my 3-inch memory foam topper on for added softness, and it literally feels like I'm sleeping on a bouncy cloud. I've never been so in love with a bed! I bought this mainly because I wanted a firmer mattress on a nursing students' budget. I can tell you first-hand that it's the best I've ever owned! I haven't experienced a single issue with it so far, but I will keep this review updated with how it holds up over time.
