5 out of 5The BEST Mattress! Ever!, Jan 13, 2008
By TexasNursesleepingwell from San Antonio, Texas
We were hesitant and were reluctant to buy a "Unique Memory Foam mattress" site unseen or tested in person thru an online purchase - especially when we were plopping down over $500. on a King Size version - BUT after reading so very many positive 5 star reviews about this product, we decided to take the plunge. We have been sleeping on the mattress for over a week now and all my husband and I can say is "OH MY GOD - this is THE best mattress experience we have ever had". To read in Overstock's advertisement that this mattress "will provide deep, relaxing sleep; The Pillow top provides the ultimate in Memory Foam surface feel and comfort; Uncomfortable pressure-points common in most innerspring mattresses is eliminated" is a HUGE understatement. We could only hope that half of it were true. Well, it is ALL true and then some. We are a couple who have been together for over 25 years. Being "baby boomers" we have come to distrust so much that you read in ads and what the advertisement claims the product is capable of doing. Well, this mattress has certainly come thru and has restored our faith in advertisement...at least here on Overstock.com.
One only has to have lived thru many years with the tossing and turning of another partner in bed with you to know that reading the statement "Say goodbye to the motion transfer you've learned to live with" would be a dream in itself if it were true. Well, it's true. Quite frankly, I didn't think there was a mattress capable of having a bowling ball dropped on the bed and not being able to notice it if you were lying down on it, but I know this mattress would withstand the movement as I no longer feel my husband moving at night (nor he of me moving at night). What the advertisement neglects to mention is you don't hardly move at all during the sleep cycle on this mattress. Once you lie on it, you become so comfortable you can forget about reading in bed or watching TV for any length of time as you are so comfortable, you are asleep in less then 10 mins.
The beauty of never having to remember to turn the mattress is another plus along with being able to use our existing box springs without having to incur the cost of new ones was a selling point for us also.
When we received the mattress - in less then a week - it was packaged exceptionally well. My husband and I were able to carry the mattress from the front door to the bedroom without any problems. Once unbagged according to the directions,(AND of note - there was NO SMELL whatsoever; a large concern for us as I am asthmatic and have a horrible time in the winter months) we put the mattress on the bed and left for work.
When we returned there was no smell whatsoever and the mattress had completely puffed to a nice 13 inches (not 14 inches as noted but who cares about 1 inch). I was concerned our current sheets wouldn't fit but they did with no issues, but they had come off of our Thomasville Pillow Top Mattress and were on the "deep pocket" size already. This is certainly something you may want to take in to consideration if you are thinking of purchasing this particular mattress - it is thick. Just buy some deep pocket sheets if you don't already have some while you are waiting for the mattress to arrive.
Sum total of it all: We have slept so well since the first night on this mattress. We wake up with more energy and my husband's back pain is no longer an issue upon rising. He is so pleasantly pleased.
Do yourself a favor, especially if you are like us where we product review for months on end when we are going to be making a major purchase, get this mattress while it is still for sale at Overstock.com. You really, really, really, can't go wrong.

I am usually very cautious about what I buy on the internet especially when it comes to furniture. We've been wanting a memory foam mattress for some time but the Tempurpedic brand isextremely expensive. I had a chance to sleep on a double 10 inch foam mattress that my mother in law bought on Overstock and found it to be just as comfortable as the Tempurpedic brand that my sister in law has. We decided to take the plunge. We wanted a king and after reading all of the reviews for the different mattresses on Overstock we purchased this one. I was skeptical about the delivery. It arrived quickly wrapped in thick black plastic. The plastic was rather dirty from the truck I assume. You'll want to bring it in to the room still in the plastic and let it expand inside the room. It is deceptively light though when fully expanded. Our mattress expanded quickly to the full dimensions probably within minutes. We let it lay in another room for a day before moving it into our bedroom to sleep on. There was no chemical smell whatsoever. We are extremely happy with the purchase and both my wife and I have slept much better every night since using this mattress.

The mattress arrived exactly as described. It was reasonably easy for my husband and I to maneuver around the house. No smell and it expanded within a few hours. Just two problems. Our little Westie tore his ACL trying to jump up on the extra thick mattress! A $1500.00 surgery. We have how removed the old box springs and placed the mattress on plywood covering the frame. We could not tell the difference in the way it slept. When he finally recovers from the surgery we hope he can once again make the jump. ( he won't use steps) The other problem and the main concern is that it is extremely hot. I purchased a good mattress cover and matress pad, but it still sleeps hot. My husband complains more than I do. He says he feels like he is sleeping in a hot hole! I wake up with less back aches than previously and know I am getting a better nights sleep. We could not afford a $4,000 Tempurpedic, and I have no regrets about this purchase. With a couple of good fans, it will be just fine for a few years. We may love the added warmth in the Winter!

We purchased this about 6 weeks ago. It came in right away. It was to size by the first night and we slept on it! No smells at all. It is a very firm mattress. We tried many of the models in the retail stores. This one is more firm than any that we had tried. With that said, it is VERY comfortable and has great support! What a steal compared to the cheapest price we tried was 2000 up to 4000 dollars. We are in our mid 40's and the old mattress we had was leaving us very sore and not rested. We have both slept much better than before. It has since gotten slightly softer which has been great. I would recomment this if you have been doing your homework looking at this type of mattress.
