Wonderful, fabulous, great, best mattress I've ever had!
First I'd like to say I do not work for Amazon or the people that make these mattresses or box springs and I paid full price for this bed! (I always wonder those things when I'm reading reviews lol-and btw how do these folks get a dang mattress for free! I've seen many reviews like that...but anyway...!)
I would buy this bed again in a second. I intended to make lots of pictures of this mattress and the process of setting up, but when we started unboxing it, there was no time! You cut the plastic and WOW there's a king size mattress! The box spring took about 2 minutes to set up. It is very sturdy. And yes, like others have said, you better have the mattress where you intend to keep it, because I cannot imagine moving it once it's expanded. It's huge and VERY HEAVY! Box spring=easy to move. Mattress=if you're the Hulk then it's easy to move.
I am one of those people that has read every review on every mattress on the Amazon site. I was extremely hesitant to buy a mattress online but there were enough convincing reviews to give it a try (After months, yes I said MONTHS, of reading reviews and debating with myself in my head over buying this mattress).
So GLAD I did. Very comfy and firm. (I wanted firm). I'm a side sleeper with some serious back & hip problems from an old injury & once I lay down I don't think I ever move. Previously had a Serta Eurotop 11 inch Queen size that was about 6 years old, that I was constantly tossing & turning on all night. I was miserable on that thing. And hot. This mattress is very cool & comfortable. Just right. Not too hot, not too cold.
My husband is a rowdy, all over the place sleeper who snores like nobody's business, who used to wake me up like 100 times a night. We've been married for 17 years & he gets louder & rowdier every year. (Love ya Hun) Now, I do not even notice that he gets up or moves around at all! That is saying something you guys!!! FABULOUS!!!! He still snores lol but I guess I'm so comfy I don't notice as much. :)
The sides are the only thing I've really noticed that is drastically different from a store bought mattress. You have to kinda hop further back if you're sitting on the edge or you will slide right off. Not a big deal, just different. I have long legs, but I hop back to about mid thigh & I'm good to put on socks & shoes. :) ok sometimes I don't hop, I just scoot. This does not bother me enough to dock this mattress a star.
Anyway...I do not regret this purchase one bit! I Recommend to everyone! I do not think you'll be disappointed. I have told everyone about my wonderful bed. (As a side note: it says to wait 48 hours before sleeping on it. It was almost 9pm when we started setting ours up. We slept on it that night. It was maybe 4 hours before we went to bed. It measured 12 inches at that time. The next morning it was 13. So I guess it expanded even with us sleeping on it. Hubby is 5'10" about 200lbs. I'm 5'9" and my weight is none of your business HAHA. Sorry. I'm somewhere between 100-150 lbs. (small range there) Lol. No creases, no sagging, no divots...just perfect.)
If anything changes I will update! It's been a month so far and everything is still just as wonderful as the first night!
Pictures were made right when we set it up. Those wrinkles you see were completely smoothed out in a few hours (that's when we decided it would be OK to go ahead and sleep on it). The box spring came out of a big box just the way you see in those pictures. Amazing that it turned into what it did!
