so is this thing soft or firm? Answers seem to be all over the place. I'm looking for a very soft mattress.

My opinion it is med. I weigh 100 lbs and i barely make an imprint. Member of family weighs right at 195 lbs he says too soft for him. Hope this helps

Wouldn't buy if you are looking for very soft. I would go with a spring mattress if you want very soft. This mattress has a plush, soft top layer (the cream color) and underneath it is the firmer foam that conforms so basically its the best of both worlds. When the mattress conforms to your body it feels softer too.Personally, I really liked springs and I wanted the super super plush pillowtop soft mattress, but I don't think they hold up like the memory foam and I ended up loving this mattress, but if you know for sure you like extremely soft and pillowy, dont go with this mattress.

When I first received the mattress, it was firm. After about a month it softened up a lot.

It is very soft. Has to be fluffed often. After one night it makes the mattress look like it is sagging. Really like it though.

I have had it for several months. I love it. I got the 8 inch mattresses for my kids over a year ago and they love it. No issues. Yes I thought it was too good to be true too, but so far they have been wonderful. It is not a soft mattress. I was a little surprised how firm it was. I prefer it that way. It takes a minute or two to conform. It does get a bit softer over time, but no lumps or dents.

I weigh 275lbs. I would describe it as a soft brick. You sink into it very little. This mattress is ultra firm. My wife hates it but I can sleep on it . And after a year of use I am starting to agree with my wife. It almost seems firmer than a year ago, but may just be me. I paid $400 for this but it may be time for another or a mattress topper. If you like firm, give this a try.

It's not soft as normal mattress. That's the reason I got this one. I had been searching for a mattress that is firm enough to relieve my back pain. I used to get a platform made of several pieces of hard wood and put a comforter (made of cotton) on it. That was very firm and sometimes can be a little bit uncomfortable. This one is thick with good balance between softness and firmness. When it came, it was a little bit too puffy that I thought. But it gets better after some days. It is stuffed with cottons and very heavy. I'm satisfied with the quality of this mattress and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a mattress that is good to your back. So far, this is my favorite mattress.

It certainly softens a firm mattress. Some comments on here said it's like sleeping on a cloud but I don't really agree with that. It may feel like that initially but it settlers down a bit after awhile. Still feels wonderful & I can't imagine sleeping without it on the bed! I will always have it on the bed.

I see you got some mixed results! The top of the mattress is quite soft, giving it an initial cushy feel, but the mattress is quit firm. I would agree with the "supportive" answer. Beware, the first week I got this mattress it was difficult to get out of bed, that's how awesome it is.

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!

Funny, one person says this topper is firm, but we put it over a normal mattress, and I think it's pretty soft! Almost too soft for my taste, but it's definitely better than the old mattress was, in my opinion.

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.

Mine feels quite soft. I find it very comfortable. Firmness is relative and subjective though and I don't know what your original feels like.

This mattress is med-soft NOT firm. My neck would hurt every morning from sinking into the mattress If you want firm you will need to get one that has 4lb's of memory foam. Its NOT the amount (inches) of foam but the pounds per inches.

It is very comfortable however it may not be firm enough for your liking. I would agree with the others who say it is "medium to soft." If you can check one out in a store first, you could "con-firm" if it is firm enough for your liking:-)

It isn't firm. It won't be like a firm foam mattress. It has some give and softness to it.

i wouldn't say "firm". My wife loves soft top mattresses. I love firm. It features a pillow top that is just right for the two of us. Really great deal for the price too. Don't be alarmed when you see the box it ships in though- ours was folded and rolled into a 1'x1'x4 ft box and vacuum sealed. it turned out to be our favourite mattress so far. We've had it for about two months now and its held up so far, no change since the day we unboxed it.

Mine was not firm. I bought it because my mattress was too firm and needed something soft.

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.
