Can you feel the coils? Does bed sag when you sit on side? Is it firm?

No you cannot feel the coils...The mattress does not sag when sitting on the edge. It is firm..but not too firm for my hip replacement....My Husband really liked the mattress and he is hard to please...Katy Fielder

Yes the sides are as firm as the middle. My wife and I are elderly and we had no problem getting in and out of bed.

The airflow for the mattress is superb, well around build as a memory form mattress. I used to sweet on my back during sleeping on regular springs mattress but this my issue now is reduce. as for airflow, you don't have to do much to it.

Try this ...are you certain that you filled it up completely. When I was filling the bed it looked like it was at maximum fill so I laid on it to try it out and it was real soft in the middle and it dipped so I inflated it more and it is firm and comfortable with no dip. Hope this helps.

I could be way off here, but all I can go on is my own experience. The firmness seems to be a function much more of the mattress than of the box spring. My own experience was that the only difference I noticed was a decided change in stability that no doubt came from the fact that the old box spring was pretty run down. But I did not change the mattress and thus did not notice any great difference in the feel of the bed while I slept. I'd strongly suggest waiting for more responses, though, to see whether mine was representative.

I would suggest sticking with a spring mattress if you are concerned about weight/sagging. If you notice the store floor models of the solid "memoryfoams" they all have a bit of a sink from people just testing them --- I went with a combo model - individually wrapped coils/springs with only the outer layer memory foam. for us it was much better and breathes more cooler.

It is not too firm. I have read many comments on the mattress, and was hesitate a little. But I am very pleased

Yes, I agree that it feels firm, but not in a rock-hard way. You can feel it begin to conform to you. If you don't like firmness, try softening with a mattress pad that is lofty, or a pillow top, or a feather bed.

So far no sagging - seems pretty sturdy. I have had the bed frame for a few months. Does mattress slide? Yes, but I put an old quilt between the mattress and frame and that helped a lot. I would still buy the frame knowing all of this.

It's fairly firm, yes. I'm also a side sleeper and it works very well for me.

It seems firm enough to me and I put a heavy double sided pillow top mattress on it. It supports it just fine and I don't see any way to adjust the springs. If you want it really firm I would suggest putting a plywood sheet on it and the mattress you use on top of that. Hope my answer helps.

I can't make any promises, Patricia. In the case of my own mattress it didn't appear to be sagging, but I could feel it when I would lay down on it. If your side is sunk in as you say, this memory foam topper may not give you all the support that you need. It might make it somewhat better, but then again it might not provide all the improvement that you need. You might be better off applying the cost of the topper towards a new mattress.

Mine came rolled up. Yes, it is firm, more like a mattress verses a pad. Try laying it flat, then try to fold it in half, not right down the middle as there the coils are in the way, but right above the most middle coils. It gets easier each time you fold it.

It is a firm mattress, and yes you can slightly feel the springs. Keep in mind that although this is a solid bed and a great value, I do not think it is meant for long term use. By that, I mean it is more a bed for kids and smaller people 100 pounds or less. We bought this for our 4 year old and will be happy if we get a few years of use out of it before we upgrade him to a high quality mattress. It would be a GREAT bed with a 3 or 4" gel foam topper. Hope this helps!

I, too, have a "no flip", but not sure about the top of the mattress. In my previous comments, you may notice that I put mine "across" the bed instead of up and down. I am beginning to notice that the side less slept on is higher than the "sleep" side. But theres still no sagging where lower back lays.

I'd say that it is firm, and may feel a bit too firm the first 2 nights. The memory foam layer is only two inches thick, so we don't sink in very far. After the first few nights its really comfortable even for side sleepers.

Honestly, I don't think you will. I weigh near 200 and the best way I can describe the feel is "dense" - that is to say, you don't have the loose or sinking feeling that most futon mattresses . It isn't so much firm like sleeping on a board, but firm like resistant. I do not feel the coils AT ALL and am a VERY active sleeper, changing positions frequently.
