I purchased a King size direct from not from . I read complaints about these mattresses being lumpy and not inflating to their full size after sitting in a warehouse for a month. I should have ordered it from . However, it was delivered (free shipping) in 8 days which I rate as good.
This is a firm mattress. The top is soft but I would rate it 7.5 on a scale 10. 10 would be very firm / almost hard. You dont really sink in much and it has bounce so its easy to move around while you sleep. Very good edge support and motion isolation.
It did have some lumps when we first opened it. They smoothed out in about 36 hours. I think that is normal for these mattresses. I detected no odor whatsoever.
Be careful unwrapping it. As a hybrid it is not folded and then rolled. It is just rolled with the springs on the inside. So it ours came out upside down.
We laid it out still rolled up on the bed and tried to remove the outer packaging so we could reposition it before we removed the inner packaging. After getting most of the outer layer off it suddenly exploded. Only my feelings were hurt but it surprised us. Trying to flip it over after that was not easy.
I see no defects in the mattress. It is even and completely uniform. We have slept on it 2 nights and it is taking some time to get used to it. I may add a topper but I will wait a couple of weeks.
EDIT: After 3 nights I could not sleep on it any longer. The backache and shoulder and hip pain I felt was too much. However, we took a latex topper from another bed and put it on this one (it was a 2 queen size topper but we made it work) and that made all the difference to me. It gave it another layer of softness which was just right. I slept on it last night and woke up pain free.
I will leave my rating as 4 stars, but be forewarned that this is very firm mattress and you sleep on the top of it. I weigh 180 and my wife is 130. I do NOT sink in at all. Also, the motion isolation is just average / not exceptional.
EDIT: After sleeping on this mattress for 3 weeks I have removed a star. If you want a mattress for motion isolation do NOT buy this one. In my opinion it is no better than a traditional mattress and much worse than a pure foam mattress. I suspect all hybrid mattresses are this way except possibly the very expensive ones. We even bought a new platform bed to provide a sturdy surface yet I can still feel my wife moving around. (Granted, she moves a lot during the night) I have another week to decide, but I may return this mattress for a gel foam one.
