How firm would you say this mattress is? I have a memory foam and hate it. I know it's a pillow top but am I going to sink in to it?

I don't, and I have a bmi of 29. But mattresses are difficult to evaluate and I took a chance and am out, worst case, $250, which for some is a night out at a fancy restaurant. As I said in my review, it took some time to get used to it after sleeping on a very firm mattress, but I now am glad I got it.

You will not sink into it. It is firm, but not hard. It really is a super comfortable mattress. Definitely do not hesitate.

You will not sink into the mattress. It is fairly firm but soft enough to curve with your body.

Well OK, it is firm and plush. With the pillow top. I'm about 260 lb. And I didn't have any sinking issues. At I did find myself not using any pillows to sleep so the bed can better contour my body. Once it off the bed it breaths. And regain shape and comfort. I think you'll like it. Good luck. Remember one getting a new mattress let your body get used to it

It is firm enough but not too firm. We have a queen memory foam mattress and they can be pretty heavy. Put this on slats and you should be good to go!

very firm , I like plush / medium soft My wife like hard , and this was even slightly firm for her for the 1rst week , it does break in and even I can sleep on it . I use a 1, maybe 2" gel topper for more comfort/ softness (I like my ribs and hips to sink in so my spine is strait since I am a side sleeper I weigh 165 my wife 160 so if your heavier it may be just right if your lighter then 165lbs then this will be to firm unless you like a firm almost very firm mattress . It is zero gravity when just laying on your back it does give you a floating sensation and is very relaxing ...

I'd say it's more medium firm to firm. Obviously you can change the feel slightly by inflating more or less. The top layer is thick and durable, you'll be able to feel the dimples you can see in the image while laying on the mattress even without inflating it all the way. Support is impressive for an air mattress, partially because of those dimples. The second night I used this mattress I added a pillow under my knees to help align my back better and that helped too. Make sure you have a supportive pillow to go along with it.

It is definitely firmer than I expected it to be. It doesn't seem to have much give but if you like a supportive mattress then this is great. My wife and I threw a mattress pad on top and it is just right for us. If you do want to try it out here is a coupon code that still works for $50 off. https://www.tuftandneedle.com/r/asCKyMMu

It's not nearly as firm as I thought it was going to be. I also have a King and Queen from another company on Amazon which were advertised as firm and definitely lived up to that description. Anyways, my point is, if firm is what you're looking for then you won't find it with this mattress. You'll "sink" into this one and that's probably not what you want.

Firmness is related to what mattress you put this on. If you put it on a firm mattress then it will make it give a little where you stick out, like your shoulder, hips, etc. It won't make you sink in a lot though. If you put it on a soft mattress then you will sink in as well. I'm much larger than my wife and I like it more, so I don't think its related to weight. My wife has arthritis and she really wants a mattress that sinks in more, like a full memory foam mattress. This top will make a firm mattress feel better in the morning without losing support, but it won't turn it into a low support mattress. Firmness is related to what mattress you put this on.

I would agree with the others, it's medium firm to firm. A lot of local mattress stores have them on the floor to try out. I would recommend lying down on various different beds before deciding to purchase on Amazon for the extreme savings.

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

It's firm enough - I mean a memory foam is not supposed to be very firm! It is a decent mattress, it just smells odd and the smell doesn't go away!

I would say that I found it to be slightly more firm than my previous memory foam mattress topper, but find it to be quite supportive as well. I would not say that it is too firm. It's supportive, and I just love that it's not toxic in the way that other foam toppers can be. I'm currently pregnant. I'm 5'3" and weigh almost 150lbs at 20 weeks. There's some nice "give" to the foam, but as I said, I still find it to be supportive. I hope this helps! Good luck.

This is NOT a squishy mattress! Firm and comfortable from the get go. I have had it several months now and it is still firm and comfy. I would buy it again and will recommend it to you. Good luck!

Its a foam mattress so there is no firmness, it just molds to your body completely, as if you are laying on a cloud.

Hello This is a hard one, my sweet wife says no, she would not be able to sleep on a firm mattress she calls it forgiving. It feels firm when we first lay down but within a few seconds we start sinking into it as it forms to you. We both feel that it was firmer in the beginning and now it feels less firm when we first lay down. This is a super comfortable mattress that we really enjoy sleeping on. We would purchase this mattress again. hope this helps.

Hi WH! Hey, it is surprisingly firm. This is my daughters bed and she LOVES it. I spent one night on it and wanted to get a "squishy" matress pad :) hope this helps!

We bought a mattress similar to what you describe and it had several layers of memory foam on the top. It was not firm enough for us, We turned it over and it is much better. We also bought the foam you mention. I already answered that it wasn't as firm as we were led to believe. Our piece had no cover,cracked easily when rolled up. Both our purchases were from Amazon but to send these products back just is not worth the effort. They are not typical of the many things we have bought from Amazon. My conclusion to answer your question is " it wouldn't be firm enough for us".
