is a 10" mattress more or less firm than a 12''? my friend has a 12" & I tried it out & it felt good, but I only have enough $'s for a 10".

I think the 10" one is about equal to the 12" one--I know when I ordered mine, the company will let you return it if you are not satisfied. But there are two other options available as well: 1) Purchase the 10" mattress, then when funds become available, purchase a topper if you are not satisfied with the padding; 2) Hold off on purchase--normally there is a "white" sale twice a year where you can get some good sales on mattresses. Bottom line: I actually like the mattress and would purchase it again.

I have the 10" queen mattress. It is quite firm but comfortable. The issue I have with it is that it makes me lean/gravitate towards the middle because my husband is heavier than I am so his side of the bed sinks down more and I fall towards that side. If you sleep alone, shouldn't be an issue.

to be honest.. i bought the 6'' version of this mattress and just like you guys, couldn't tell if its comfort on the top of my bed or not... i personally think that it is supprisingly comfort when located on the floor or any hard and solid surface of that matter. as for me: after a few days i just got used to it! maybe that's what it all about :)

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.

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.

Yes. Because mine is 10 inch double and still have a little wiggle room.It's nice too. Was surprised how nice it was. TIP: stand mattress on long end and start at the top and work your way down...just makes it easier.

Hi,When I received the item it appeared to be really thin as opposed to my previous 9" mattress. After measuring the item, it was only 5". I had to return the item and purchase another mattress.

I have the 10". I am a side sleeper & find this mattress very comfortable. I was never comfortable sleeping on my back before this mattress but now that is also comfortable. This mattress doesn't leave gaps under your body so it feels really good. I don't think I'll ever go back to a pillowtop/spring mattress.

The mattresses we use and sell are 10in but a 12in would should work with it also. It will just be a little higher up on the head board and side pieces. You do not use a box spring with any of our beds. They are platform beds and come with slats to hold the mattress.

some sheet sets say deep pockets or how thick a mattress they can fit. 12" isn't that thick, shouldn't be a problem...my sheets fit snugly and stay put, better than on my old coiled mattress.

I am using a memory foam mattress. I have a 6 inch which is definitely not enough,the foam squishes down and I keep hitting my tailbone or shoulders on the slats. I think you would need a 12 or 14 inch mattress for this. My boxspring was thrown out (by mistake) so i now have my old mattress underneath the memory foam.It helped quite a bit but in all honesty the next time I'm going with a regular setup with a memory foam top (mattress). Good luck William!

Not firm enough. I purchased this and had to return it as it was just too soft. On a firm scale of 1-10 (10 being a board), this was like a 4. Fast forward a year later and I finally just broke down and bought a new firm mattress, which my lower back really appreciates.

Its definitely a firm mattress! A bit too much got my liking and I usually prefer firm.

I bought this and it was the right width (maybe with an inch to spare, I think, but good enough) but ~3 inches too short, so maybe start there? The bed is actually even better than it seems - we are really pleased with it, as is our son!Sleep Master iCoil 6 Inch Spring Mattress, Twin

This mattress is very comfotable. My guests have confirm this. It is worth the price. It is a 6" mattress.

I went with the thicker mattress for my TT. The down side of that is it makes getting into bed a little difficult due to the increased highth from the floor. TTs have a storage area under the bed. Great sleep!

I'm still waiting for my refund to be processed, but for anyone currently questioning this, UPS just picked up the mattress-- no charge as per Amazon's return policy. We got the 12" and the mattress quality was superb... but we also felt it was way too firm to be a "medium". Ours luckily had a defect so we didn't have to pay return shipping costs (if you just don't like it, you still can return, but Amazon will charge you a fee to return it). Hopefully the next one will be the right one!
