Where does this pad rate on the firmness scale? Is it firm enough to support the middle back or is it too soft for that?

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.

Yes it supports my middle back...I wouldn't recommememory memory foam if you're over200lbs.

I would have to say that its super soft.But once you lay on it you will sink in and it will cradle your whole body.

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

I would rate it an 7/10 for firmness. I was thinking it would be softer, but probably any softer and you would feel the bars.

It's pretty soft because of the pillow top. Firm enough not to cause back aches though.

If you looking for a quite firm one, this is not the right one for you. It's medium firm I would say.

It is comfortably thick enough for me. I bought it for the cooling and it does seem to help! The pad is not cold but the heat seems to go down and stay at a normal temp. Good luck. A,

It's firm in the Lumbar Support area. I am leaning back with my feet up typing this now.I recommend you buy it. I am 225lbs, 6.1" and I am very comfortable.It is "Strong Like Bull!"

It's about in the middle. I wouldn't say it's firm, since the springs have some give to them, but it's not soft enough to be plush.

In my opinion, the chair is well padded but quite firm. It's not mushy or softy. I have two, one for my desk and one for sewing. If you are looking for plush, you may want to keep looking.

While I wouldn't characterize this foam mattress pad as firm, it is also not soft and/or unsupportive. If you haven't tried a foam-type mattress, you should go to a mattress store and lay on one for 5-10 minutes so you have an idea of what foam does. The pad does an excellent job of providing comfort; it supports without being overly firm in the sense of a traditional coil-type mattress. Tough to quantify!

I'd say medium firmness to firm. Not super firm though. This is my first foam mattress. I LOVE it. It has give, along with support, that I have never gotten from a coil spring mattress. I had back surgery over 20 years ago and have ongoing chronic back and shoulder pain. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I can sleep through the night without pain and wake up feeling refreshed. Particularly when you compare the cost of this mattress to a Tempurpedic, I don't see how you can go wrong.

No. It is too soft. It would bottom out. I am not happy with mine. I'm thinking that the next time I add to my review I will lower its rating to a 1. I turned the pad over and it already has low places forming on the new side. I would not recommend the purchase of this pad. I am still sleeping on mine. It is better than nothing on my firm mattress.

It is not too firm...It melds into my body, so it gives me support, but is not stiff.

Its pretty nice. Very firm when you first get it and softens up. We have had ours about 2 months and love it.

Can't say much about soft as this one is pretty firm. Want site is like it but now i can't sleep on anything but firm. Supposedly better on your back as well

I would say a good combination of firm and medium. It's not too firm where you feel like you're snuggling a hard memory foam pillow, but it's not too soft where if you throw your leg over it that it squishes down to nothing. I bought because of spinal surgery. I would suggest to get a cover for it because it is not a soft feeling case it's in.

It is not stiff and is very comfortable. I would not say it is real soft, but firm enough to give good support. Just right for me! I weigh over 220#.
