Trying to make sense of the review comments :"It's not too firm or too soft it's perfect". "Yes its heavy and a little firm". "It's super soft but stays firm" "Flat as a pancake, &amp; hard as a rock". "Too hard and thick when I lie on my back and too soft...

Well, it kind of is like the person has described!! The pillow is heavy and dense. It gives great support. My husband and I have been using ours for about a year and we love them. I don't think we'll ever go back to a regular pillow again.

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.

It is a firm soft if that makes sense. It is not hard at all. I love this pillow!

I don't know how to provide a judgement on "how soft is this mattress", since "soft" is a subjective evaluation based on personal taste. I can tell you that we're happy with it, we find it both comfortable and supportive without creating any pressure spots. We're happy with it.

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 ...

how do I say it? Its firm,but compfortable,so...with a touch of softness to it? That is the best I could do. I don't like overly firm seating, so it must fall in-between. IKL.

It is plush on lying down-does't feel hard on my old bones-but it is not saggy. I have been sleeping on mine for 3 months and find it extremely comfortable. It is also a bit on the entertaining side when you first get it as it is folded in half lengthwise and then rolled up in clear plastic. It is heavy an it was good to have help getting it up on the box spring. Figure out which way it will unroll before you start unwrapping as it takes off and does it's thing when you start removing the plastic wrap! Poof and you have a mattress! I love mine. I loved the price.

Medium. Soft to me means you feel enveloped and like you have to dig out; this is not that. You do not sink in too much. Too firm means you do not sink in at all; this is not that. My hips sink in if I am on my side - but it has a hammock effect... I do not feel fully supported. On my back, my butt sank in but the small on my back was not fully supported. My back caved in if I tried to sleep on my stomach. Mine went from too firm to ok to body impressions and back pain within a month, but all in all, I would say it is medium.

my husband and I have both spent time on our kids beds for stories and snuggles at bed time and we both agree that it is very firm. Talkin' wake you up you're so uncomfortable if you happen to doze off kind of firm. Hope that helps!

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.

It is a soft mattress, that allows you to sink in just enough to make for a pleasant rest. If you want it softer, you can always place a down-filled mattress pad on top, although I really think that would be redundant. I highly recommend it for anyone who is not looking specifically for a hard mattress.

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!

I wouldn't want to say what heavy is or not but we keep it set up all the time and it's quite good. We have a reoccurring guest (170lbs) who uses it 3-4 days in a row with no complaints. And the kids totally love it because they say the mattress is so comfy. They don't even dent it when they lay on it (90lbs). My husband (220ish) uses it here and there and says it's good but hasn't used it any longer than two nights in a row. If it's transitional or you can't buy a bed right now for someone in the house, I think it's a great option. Way better than an aerobed option -- far better than a couch.

It's soft, but it is firm. So it's soft enough to be comfortable but firm enough that the stuffing never shifts or gets lumpy in spots. If he's looking for barely there, then this probably isn't the best pillow, it's very substantial.

The mattress is definitely not too firm. We find it supportive without feeling rigid. It is a much more inviting sleep surface than the older tempurpedic mattresses. It welcomes your body shape and supports areas that need to be supported without being hard.

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

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.
