I replaced a very old, worn out, substandard mattress with this one, so bearing in mind that just about anything would have been an improvement, I have to say Im completely satisfied with this mattress and not sure what could be better.
The latex foam has a little less give and sink, and a little more springiness than memory foam, so it has an overall firmer feel which is just what I was hoping for when I selected this one over the memory foam gel model. It still conforms to your body to a degree, but gives a little more support overall. To me its incredibly comfortable, allowing me to fully and quickly relax my body. The proof is in the soundness of sleep Ive gotten and also how quickly Im able to get to sleep. I really didnt understand that a new, quality mattress would make this big of an impact, but I do now. Im only sorry I didnt make this purchase sooner, as I had researched and decided on this one a few months ago. I chose the 10 one, the descriptions and video reviews I watched indicate that the 12 model is a little softer and plusher. I think I chose the right one for me because Im happy with a medium amount of firmness and might have found the 12 too soft.
Unpacking and setup was simple and fast. The instructions recommend allowing 48 hours to expand before use, but mine seemed fully expanded after 24 hours so I slept on it after one day and it was fine. There was a slight to moderate odor of foam that fully dissipated after two or three days.
Ive read and seen some reviews that suggest this mattress may be less durable than a more expensive one, perhaps lasting only 3/4 years (although it has a 10 year warranty). At this very affordable price for this level of comfort, I will be more than happy even if I only get a shorter amount of useful life (and Ill never make the mistake of going so long on a worn out mattress again). I would fully recommend this mattress for the value and comfort, and the latex model is perfect for someone who prefers a bit firmer, supportive feel.
Comfort, Value, Great Nights Sleep
