Get the simmons - the foam in these will give way and crack after a few months. It loses support at the edges (loses the "squareness") I would NEVER buy another LUCID or LINEN SPA foam mattress. Mine from March 2013 started cracking in the gel foam on top - the edge lost firmness and you roll off. No support after a few months. LUCID refused to honor 25 year warranty after requesting pictures of cracked foam. LINEN SPA was no help either. Let me know if you want to see the correspondence. I'm gonna find a more reputable company.

Financially, it's definitely a lot cheaper to buy the Lucid by Linen Spa 12" Gel than a Sealy or Simmons Memory Foam. 2 years ago I bought a TemperPedic Cloud Lux - the top of the line and it was very expensive, over $3,000. I had the worst experience of my life. It felt like sleeping on a bag of sand. There was no "give" to it and it was very hard for me to get out of the bed and to move around. I woke up in a lot of pain and returned it to the local mattress store. I have rheumatoid arthritis and neck and spinal arthritis and it really aggravated my condition instead of helping it. I bought this Lucid for my 15 year old grandson and he loves it. I would not go below a 12" mattress.

I do not believe this "Extra Soft" version is made from memory foam. This cushion crushes almost completely under my 116-pound frame. Perfect for the very frail, I'm sure they made this version for people with bed sores or friable skin. I would recommend a more firm cushion for everyone else, I purchased the "Extra Firm" for my father who is a large man, and he said the cushion is very comfortable and has allowed the sore on his coccyx to heal completely. I believe the "Extra Firm" is real memory foam, but am not completely sure as I have not seen it in person (he lives 1000 miles away).

I have the 13 inch memory foam mattress and have found it very comfortable. I am not sure what the extra layer comfort is but I am very satisfied with this quality mattress. I am impressed by the quality as well as the price and the fact it is made in the good old USA!! There really is not much price difference in the 11 in verses 13 in so I bought the 13. The sheets fit nicely , looks very nice made up.

I love this mattress! I have laid on an all latex mattress and it felt more like memory foam. This mattress has more spring to it.

I don't find it hot. It's definitely better than the first generation memory foam in my opinion.

I didn't have this exact one, but this would generally go for all memory foam pads. As long as you use a cover(protect it from the floor of course) these are great for the floor. It's only slightly more firm than on the bed, but still feels great. In fact I preferred using it on the floor over the bed for that slight firmness under the cozy memory foam.

In my view, the mattress topper provides a cooler layer of separation between your body and the memory foam. That's really the reason behind the topper. I would keep it simple, but not too cheap. I can't recall which one I bought because I had it for a few years before I came across this mattress. You want it to be of decent quality so that it fits securely over the mattress. The memory foam delivers the comfort, the mattress pad keeps you cooler.

Depends on how thick your current padding is but sheets fitting are not a problem for me. I would remove the old padding I think to get the full benefit of the Memory Foam IMHO!!!

I've had both 2 and 3 inch memory foam mattress toppers (both from Costco), and I think the decision on which to buy depends a lot on how you sleep. As a side sleeper, I prefer the 3-inch topper because it gives my hip more cushioning from the very hard mattress underneath the topper. The only thing I like less about the 3-inch topper is, because it's thicker than the 2-inch, I'm more aware off the slight difference in size between the mattress and the topper. The mattress is a couple inches wider than the topper so there's a slight drop-off on one side of the bed. Of course, this may not be a problem with this specific 3-inch topper.

If this is the mattress from wayfair.com. I returned it. It wasn't memory foam. And only 1 in thick I stead of 3 In. I went to Kohls. Their memory foam 3 in is great

We bought the sleep master 6 inch smooth top therapeutic memory foam mattress and it's worked out great! It does have an odor when you take out out if the packaging so I recommend airing it out.

Its down alternative. No gel like memory foam. Could be the new process which they coat the filling with gel to keep its shape,but no way to know for sure without ripping open. All I can say is very comfortable,like buying a pillowtop mattress

I tried a Rhapsody in a store that sold Tempurpedic and then bought a queen size memory foam bed from Atlantic Bed that they claimed was medium firm and compared to the rhapsody. Very good bed and we think very similar. Then we bought the king from foammattressdiscounts and think it is more of a medium than medium firm. You sink in deeper before it firms up. Do I like this King? For the money hard to beat and very comfortable. Only thing I don't like about it is it develops an aggravating wrinkle in the cover where your body sinks in the most after sleeping on it a week or so. The wrinkle can be pulled out, but comes right back.

This one doesnt claim gell filled? This is down alternative. The gell filled is more like memory foam type so if your looking for more of a memoery foam feel go gell if you want a pillow top feel fo this one.

after comparing by buying both, the Temperpedic will take longer for your adjustment, the regular memory foam is softer. Problem is, the memory foam gives way more easily. I think the temperpedic is better made, but much harder. It is something for you to consider. I have awful neck arthritis and both work very well in allowing me a good night's sleep and the ability to be very active during the day. I just see that I will be buying replacements with my memory foam one where I think the temperpedic is going to last me a very long time

No, it actually is not the same. It's been a while but if memory serves me correctly the Sam's Club mattress is only 10 inches not 12 and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have the blue gel layer this one has. If your looking for a memory foam mattress and don't care about the gel layer, I would recommend considering the sleep innovations 12 inch mattress priced lower than thus matttess. (I'm going to try and post the link at the end of this commentI'm not sure if it will work) since the "Serta" mattress is made by Sleep Innovations, the tag says Sleep Innovations and the warranty is through them as well.

I've only had experience with the memory foam matress topper. But........our experience has been great with them.
