Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Let me just say I was terrified buying a mattress from Amazon. My wife and I are two different builds (me being broad shouldered 6'0" and 216lbs; her being bigger hipped, 5'4" 135lbs.) and we were concerned about which mattress to buy because of this. We decided to take a gamble with memory foam as it would form to each of our unique body structures. We gambled right. The mattress was a perfect fit for us. The first night we woke up a little sore, but every night after has been comfortable and we wake up with no discomfort from lack of support. I imagine being sore was due to transitioning from a pillow top, spring loaded mattress to a firm, memory foam mattress. Great purchase! I wish we could buy one for all of my four kids and guest bedroom, but I'm not that generous....lol. Besides, who wants their kids and guests to live with them forever? The mattress came shipped in an odd, rectangular cubic shaped box. I immediately panicked when I opened it up only to find the mattress folded in several angles in order to fit in the box. I debated whether I should just return it then before I lost the vacuum seal, but after researching online and calling some stores I found that this was normal, so I decided to break the seal and let it expand. Within 35 minutes it went from no more than 2 inches in height to the full 12 inches as promised. There was a chemical odor that went away after a few days. I would recommend this to anyone trying to save a few $$ without sacrificing quality.
