Is this mattress firm? I'm a side sleeper and need a firm mattress.

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

It is firm, but not hard firm like a regular mattress. I find it extremely comfortable to sleep on and gives great support. I would never go back to a regular mattress. It bounces back right after you get out of bed.

No, it's not "firm" it's memory foam so it forms with your body. It's very comfortable. I love it.

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.

In my terms I would not call it firm. It gives when you lay in it. At the same time, I wouldn't call it soft either; it's right in between. It reminds me of a temperpedic type mattress although not that high end. Not sure if that helps. When I lay on beds in furniture stores that are really firm I do not like them. This is not that type of firm for me. It's light weight but still a good amount of support.

I found mine to have the same firmness. The best advice I can give is to force yourself to try it for about 3 nights. You will either love it or hate it. Just take comfort in the return policy!

It's supportive but I would not call it firm. In fact we bought it for my daughters bed because she complained it was too firm of a mattress. She is now much more comfortable with the topper.

No, it is not as firm. I'd say it was firmer than the tiny mattress for the co-sleeper, by a lot.

Yes. My mattress was so firm it was making my hips sore because i sleep on my side. This made a huge difference in the softness. It's really a nice product.

I am not a side sleeper so won't be able to give the right guidance here. I sleep on my back and this mattress is really great and perfect from compression perspective. After a month of sleeping, all I can say us that I do not have lowe back pain any more. I hope it remains like that. Also to mention that my wife sleeps on side and she has not complained either. Said that I assume that this mattress could potentailly support side sleepers also.

The mattress is definitely not too firm. We find it supportive without feeling rigid. It is a much more inviting sleep surface than the older tempurpedic mattresses. It welcomes your body shape and supports areas that need to be supported without being hard.

It is pretty firm. Also flat on one side..I really don't think it would make a good pillow.

It is not firm. As you lay down it starts to conform to your body. It is the most comfortable mattress I ever slept on but it is not firm.

It seems very firm to me. No more back aches after sleeping on this mattress.

This is pretty firm. If I have to sleep on it more than one night in a row, or for guests, I use a memory foam mattress topper to soften it up a bit.

The mattress isn't firm. It is on the softer. My mattress filled up pretty quickly, but didn't completely fill out the sheet for a day or so. When it was fully set, it was much thicker than expected.

According to the manufacturer's web site this mattress has a medium-plush feel. That means it's not too firm or plush, but is leaning more towards the plush side. I ended up buying one that was more firm for that reason.
