Comfort Dreams Select-A-Firmness 14-inch Queen-size Memory Foam Mattress

I ordered one of these knock off memory foam mattresses in late 2008 from Overstock. I would strongly recommend avoiding buying one of these knock-off brand memory foam mattresses. At first; during the first 7 or 8 months, we loved our mattress. But, after about month 9 the mattress developed deep ridges where my wife and I sleep. We are small people by the way.... I am 5' 9 and 165 pounds. We both started to develop shoulder and back pains. The knock off brand mattresses tend to break down quickly and don't bounce back to the original firmness. So... after just 2 years; we got rid of our mattress and bought a Tempr-Pedic and absolutely love it. I just felt compelled to write a review to warn people to save their money and buy the real thing because these knock-off mattresses do not last long at all... at least, this was my experience.

I make a point of reading other customer reviews before I purchase an item, especially when the price seems "too good to be true". I have fibromyalgia and my husband has issues with his sciatic nerve once in a while. We decided to try a memory foam mattress and were going to buy a "name", until I was investigating on the internet and came across this mattress. It may be too soon to say how well the mattress holds up, but it feels wonderful! We opted for medium, which is definitely firm enough. We have been commenting to each other, almost daily, how well we slept the prior night.

I was very skeptical purchasing a bed that I haven't touched or laid on. I took a gamble, but it was well worth it. The delivery time was 15 days and the packaging looked that of a Pillsbury dough boy can. There was a smell, but it was very faint. The bed expanded rapidly and took little time to reach full size. I purchased a medium, I wish I would have bought the soft one instead but I still love the bed. My medium is pretty firm, but very supportive. When I lay down most of body I can feel sink into the bed while my feet and head are slightly higher. I would recommend this bed to ANYONE, especially someone who has back pains. The main reason why I purchased it was due to my wife and I both having severe scoliosis and after three weeks improvements are very noticeable. It isn't going to fix our spines but every night has been a great night of sleep, every day when we wake up and we are fully energized and it stays with me all day long. Well, there isn't much more I can say, it is an excellent buy and I would recommend the soft, if my medium feels to firm there is not telling how hard the firm bed is. I am sure that if you get the soft, you will still get a very supportive and relaxing sleep continuously. Hope you enjoy your bed as much as I do.

In spite of a delay in the shipping of my order, I am completely satisfied with my Over Stock order. The matress was supposed to be delivered on 11/24/2010 and was delayed by 5 days. However, the customer service department was PROACTIVE and called me on the day it was supposed to be delivered and offered to refund $**** of my purchase for the inconvienence caused by the delay. I would have never called them...things happen and I was ok (though not thrilled with) the fact that it was being delayed. But, the fact they called me assured my future loyalty to OverStock.com. The Matress its self is exactly what was described. My biggest consern was whether or not the matress would be too hot and retain too much heat. It does not, and is actually very comfortable. The fact that my wife can get out of the bed and not even wake me because of the reduction of motion transferance is amazing, when compared to traditional matresses. I would recommend ordering one "firmness level" softer than you desire. I.e. if you want hard, order medium. I saw another review recommending this and it turned out to be very good advice. I ordered soft because I desired a medium firmness and it is perfect. 5 stars!
