The Five Star Reviews Are Not an Exaggeration
It's been about three months now, and I can safely say this mattress is definitely worth the money. This is a very firm mattress, and contrary to what you may have read, it is ready to sleep on the very night you get it. Mine expanded to full height almost instantly. Yes, there is a light "odor", but it is clean and pleasant. The smell lasted a couple of weeks in my case, but nothing offensive. I actually thought the aroma was a nice plus. Some reported that the queen size mattress was a few inches shorter in length. Mine was not. If anything, it has a slight overhang, so perhaps the manufacturer saw the complaints and rectified this already. My fitted sheets fit perfectly with a nice smooth finish. I'm actually a pretty heavy (>270lbs) guy, so sagging was a concern of mine. So far, there doesn't seem to be any. I have been flipping and turning it a little more often than recommended just as a precaution, but after three months, the mattress remains flat and lump-less. Opening the mattress is really exciting and fun. Yes, you have to use scissors to cut off the duffle bag. Don't bother trying to save it. Once you get the duffel off, you have to cut the tape to unroll it. Then you have to cut that inner bag and watch as it practically pops up like an exploding can of muffins! So is this as nice as those thousand dollar pillow top luxury mattresses? Of course not! But does it afford me a good night's sleep for a fifth of the cost? You betcha! Great mattress, great price, and fun to open. What more could you ask for? *UPDATE: I ordered this mattress on November 24, 2014, and today it is April 17, 2016. Guess what? My queen size mattress is still holding up! Keep in mind I'm a pretty big guy that weighs over 270 lbs. I continue to flip the mattress quite regularly, and while there is a small hint of wear in the spots where I lay, the mattress is still supporting my avoirdupois with a firm but comfortable repose. There are still no lumps and still no regrets! *YET ANOTHER UPDATE: So now it's June 22, 2017. I just thought I'd stop back in and let all of you know how the mattress is doing. Still no change to the number of stars. This mattress has been holding up very well for over 2½ years, and it looks great! While there are still no slumps or lumps, I have to admit that it's starting to feel a little less firm than it used to. I still flip and rotate it regularly, and I sleep on it every night. It's very comfortable. If you are on any kind of a budget and need a decent mattress, this is the one to get! I just hope they are still making them whenever mine finally wears out! *JUNE 23, 2020 UPDATE It has been over five and a half years now, and I still stand by my review. The mattress I bought from here has stood the test of time. I'm laying on the mattress as I type this. It might be a little softer than the day I installed it, but it is still comfortable. One thing I thought I'd mention: Early on, I bought a couple of waterproof "bamboo" mattress pads to protect it and wouldn't you know it, the mattress itself still looks like new. It has been over five years though, and the price has gone up. If they are still making them like the one I bought, you are still getting a bargain. Flip it regularly. If you keep it clean, dry, and on a firm support base, this mattress should serve you well for many years.
