My 9" Mattress has been opened for 15 hours now and is still extremely soft, although it looks to be fully expanded. How long until it gets firm?

I'm not sure how long it takes to firm up, but that's one of the things I really like about the mattress: it's plush and pillowy, but also supportive. It has the effect of a firm, pillow-top mattress.

I'm not sure what you or the other review are talking about - mine is too firm if anything. I actually have a softer 1/2 inch pad on it. If you're having trouble with it I would call the manufacturer or Amazon. Amazon is spectacular with order issues and Brentwood is a US company which means they'd be easy to contact and deal with. Good luck with your order!

Be sure to lay it out on a flat surface for about 24 hours. It should flatten out ok. Mine was shipped in a box and the mattress was pretty much rolled in a ball. I honestly don't see how they got it like that but it was ok within 24 hours.

I've only had mine for about two months and I haven't noticed it getting any softer. I knew it was a 'medium' soft when I bought it but it is a little more firm than I had anticipated.

From what I have heard, it is important to allow your memory foam mattress to fully expand over 2 or 3 days before you even sit on it. Supposedly putting weight on it too soon can crush cells inside the mattress so that it breaks down sooner, although it might not be evident for over a couple years. We set ours up, closed the door and didn't even put a hand on it for 72 hours. It still is wonderful after about five or six months - so far.

I honestly don't know how long it took - maybe a couple of weeks - but it is a good 10" thick now. Also, we left ours on the bed for a couple of days, upside down, and then turned it over. That might have helped. We love this mattress, though it did take a few days to get used to. Now, we wouldn't trade it for anything.

Mine was also very firm at first. It is much softer now but firm. So yes it does get a little softer

Glad to hear it got better. I knew it was firm, but not too bad. Mine is pretty soft now too.

We've left ours inflated since we got it in early April - 2 months ago. It became a little softer, but I think that's because it's new and hasn't been inflated before, all the little wrinkles are smoothed out by the air now. It seems just fine, but we use it only once in a while maybe once a week, not every night. I don't think it is meant to be used daily like a regular mattress.

It only takes a few hours to expand, but you could. It does havea strong smell from the paix packaging for 2 hours though. It's a great mattress though you won't regret it.

48 hours or so to expand. Additionally, there's a smell from the foam that disappears. Its recommended that you buy a mattress protector.

Hi, I have had the mattress for about a month in a guest room. I've slept on it a few nights too. It's like a marshmallow and not in a good way. I regret the purchase and find it far too soft and squishy. I wish I had purchased in-store at a local furniture shop. It was cheap and convenient, though, and I suppose for a hardly used guest room it's OK. But VERY very soft.

It takes time to expand but it does get firmer after a few hours. I made the mistake of resting while it was expanding and I woke up with some back pain, not sure if it was because it was still expanding but I recommend letting it finish first. I've had it for about 5 months now and its still firm yet comfortable.

dear D.Flowers...if your ends are curled up,that means the foam mattress ends did not spread apart..you may have to unzipper it and straighten it (it could be that during expanding process the cashmere top caught the foam mattress and it didn't unfold right )..to fully expand should only take 8hrs ......hopefully this will help you

Hello, It only took a few hours for it to "rise". I slept on the full size mattress 3-4 hours after I opened it, and it had no adverse "smell" that has been mentioned in other reviews. Hope this helps! : )

It's fairly firm, I would recommend you go down to a mattress store and lay down on one of their memory foam mattresses. That is the firmness of that type of mattress.

I've used it for 2 weeks so far and it took a little getting used to. I like a very firm bed and it can do this if you blow it up enough. I also used a high quality mattress protector to add comfort.
