Just like I said about the box spring I bought online, I cant believe I bought a Queen-sized mattress online! I didnt have to drive to every store that sells mattresses to find a deal on a mattress that smells like pickles when it is delivered. (yes - that happened once) This was delivered right to my door hassle-free and hermetically sealed with all of the air sucked out of it and rolled up in 2 layers of heavy plastic. It would have been much easier if I had some help because it was super heavy and Im kind of old but strong and determined. So I won. You have to be super careful when opening the box if you use a knife so you dont cut through the plastic or slice the mattress. It will start to expand and that isnt good until you have it in place. I removed the first layer of plastic, put the mattress on top of the box spring and carefully cut the last layer of plastic and it started to inflate right away. It was easy to pull the plastic off and within an hour it seemed to be fully fattened up. It had the slightest of odors but Im sensitive to scents and it disappeared within the hour. It is so comfortable! It is firm until you lay on it and then you kind of sink a little. I think the more you weigh the more youll sink but it keeps its shape and has a very nice attached cover that is super soft. I dont believe Ill need a separate mattress cover and will put the sheets right on the mattress. My only concern is that my guest will get too comfy and wont want to leave. It is more comfortable than my expensive King-sized bed from a bougie department store. I would have given 5-stars but it wasnt cheap and it is solid foam with no coils so I will trust this will hold up better if used only occasionally for guests - not every night. So for that purpose it is worth the price and the wrestling match. Glad that I read all the good reviews and made the decision to purchase this mattress. Im very happy with it and would highly recommend giving it a try! great color!
Guests will be too comfortable
