PLEASE tell me this mattress gets softer?? I've been sleeping on mine for about 8 days and I'm waking up with more back pain than before. Or maybe I'm just getting old... :( I do keep my house cold at night and maybe that doesn't help. It just seems...

the warmer the mattress is the softer it will be. So if its cold in your room it will be a little harder.

I can't really help you on this. I filed our warranty and receipts away already. If it helps, we are really pleased with our purchase. It smells for the first few days and is pretty firm for a week or so. Its not so now and my husband's neck and back don't bother him at night anymore. Even my kids love the new bed. I'm sorry if I wasn't much help.

Definitely don't feel any coils ever, had mine for maybe 6 months now. It's pretty firm though, it's a strange, very soft firm because of the top but its definately closer to ultra firm than firm without being hard. I figured a mattress at this low price would collapse in a few months though so I'm still waiting on the firmness to soften up and hope it will be perfect in a year instead of mush in a year like most cheap mattresses.

It feels firm, but when you sleep on it, it's nice. I'm 6'4' #200 male and slept on a 15 yr old firm Sealy (I know, it's junk)...with a 3" Lucid on top of it, and after a while started having back soreness again...I bought this 4" and added it to the top. Sleep like a baby now. Actually remember dreams and rarely wake up. Never wake up, and never wake up sore. Great nights sleep.

Go around to some mattress shops in your town and try them out. Especially the memory foam and latex ones, and make notes of the ones you like. If you have the names of the models of national brands that you like, you'll be able to give Chuck a better idea of what you like. I personally said pretty much the same as you and probably would have picked an 8 going in cold. I went to a Tempurpedic shop and tried out the mattresses and realized I wanted one just a little bit firmer, so when I corresponded with Chuck I picked a 7, and I'm very happy with it. But you're the only who can decide.

I agree with Lauren0418. I wouldn't call it a "mattress"... it seems uncomfortable to me and our nebworn did not like it. Looked cold and uninviting. I wish i new about putting another pad (which is another purchase).. maybe that would have helped.

I bought one a few years ago, I would buy another in a heartbeat. Best mattress I've ever slept on. I see it's selling for the same price I paid for it, $699. I had to sell mine due to a move. I miss it every night.However, I would not consider it "firm." It is soft. I used to think firm was the way to go, but this mattress soft yet supportive. I hope this helps.

My husband and I have been sleeping on this mattress for a few years now and we still absolutely love it! So much, that we have recommended it to multiple friends and family memebers who have all (5 families) purchased this particular mattress and have also had great experiences with it. I don't find myself getting hot or cold during the night. It is more firm than other foam mattresses out there, but I need that for my low back pain. I can report that my back has been pain free since sleeping on this mattress because of the support and comfort it offers. I no longer toss and turn during the night and I wake up feeling well rested. Yes, you can put it in the waterbed frame if you don't want to buy another bedframe. You do not want to put it on a standard box springs due to the possibility of sagging thru the boards. My husband just went to Lowes or Home Depot and got some particle board and had it cut to size (two seperate pieces placed side by side) in the place of a standard box spring and it works out perfectly. They do sell the same thing online called a "bunky board" for $200+ but you can get away with just going to Home Depot and having them cut some heavy duty particle board to the size of you bed frame. It just needs to be an inch short on all sides of the mattress to offer support without sticking out beyond the mattress. I highly resommend this bed. It has been a life changer for both me and my husband! I hope this helps answer your questions. Do NOT pay more than this for your mattress, if you do than you're just paying for the name and to help pad the pockets of the mattress salesman.

I think it more towards the firm side. I did a review on YTube for this great mattress. Just search for "Review and unboxing of Night Therapy Elite" and it should appear

I feel like mine has become a fair bit softer in certain spots that are more laid in. The foot end is still pretty stiff but the upper end where we normally sleep sinks in deeper than I like. We've had ours for 2 years now and flipped it once. Not over though just around so the foot end becomes the head end. I actually came to the page today to see if the warranty covers this... sadly it doesn't look like it does.

Mine was not firm. I bought it because my mattress was too firm and needed something soft.

No, it's really too soft for someone with back pain. Memory Foam is a great way to go, but this mattress is VERY soft, and causes you to sink in too far to be supportive. The 8 inch is not quite as mushy, while plenty soft enough.

Ive had mine for a good nine mounths now, and two people weighing about 160 sleep on it nightly and i haven't noticed any flatning. When i was doing my research for which bed to buy i. Had heard a lot of companies were doing a bait and switch, they would sell really good matress for a while, build up a good rating, and then start selling crap ones to make more of a profet. So just be careful with as to whome you buy it from, and to read ALL of their reviews to see if they played any said games with people.

I suffer from arthritis of the hip, some people like the mattresses a little bit softer, I'd say this one is between soft and firm, but to my peace of mind, all the pain I used to sleep and wake up with has gone away since I started sleeping on it. I really hope you can find it as relieving as I have. Good luck!

It's not soft as normal mattress. That's the reason I got this one. I had been searching for a mattress that is firm enough to relieve my back pain. I used to get a platform made of several pieces of hard wood and put a comforter (made of cotton) on it. That was very firm and sometimes can be a little bit uncomfortable. This one is thick with good balance between softness and firmness. When it came, it was a little bit too puffy that I thought. But it gets better after some days. It is stuffed with cottons and very heavy. I'm satisfied with the quality of this mattress and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a mattress that is good to your back.

It is the softest mattress I've ever slept on and I've had many, many different types of beds, including tempurpedics. And yet it is supportive. It is like sleeping on a cloud I think. So soft. Awesome bed!!!
