King Mattress, Sweetnight 12 Inch King Size Mattress in Box, Pillow Top Gel Memory Foam Mattress for Motion Isolation & Comfy Sleep, Removable & Washable Mattresses Cover, Sunkiss

This is my first experience with a mattress in a box. For what it cost it's really pretty good. It has a soft side and a firm side. I thought I would like firm but it turns out soft is better. I was losing sleep with hip and back pain on the previous mattress, a really old hand me down. This is a big improvement. Time will tell how it holds up as I've only had it for a few weeks. I'm enjoying it now.

The media could not be loaded.  I picked up this mattress for my retired in-laws as a thank you gift for all they do for us. Their old mattress was a pillow-top, but after they stayed at our house on our memory foam mattress while watching the kids several months back and hearing how well they slept, we just had to see if this would be an improvement. Our memory foam mattress was 12-inch and we paid about 2 grand for it 9 years ago. This one was not the cheapest we found on amazon, but it looked like a good deal and I wanted to see what the gel memory foam was like.The product arrived via Prime delivery in a big yellow box. Inside the box the mattress was folded in half and rolled up in a compressed form inside a plastic sheeth, which was inside a sort of plastic canvas bag along with an envelope and a little journal, a warranty card, with an amusing cartoon about a thief falling asleep on a Sweetnight mattress and getting caught while robbing a house. The package also came with a little letter opener which I used to slice through the plastic holding it together and I then unrolled it onto my in-laws queen-sized box spring. I then slit one end of the plastic bag that was still holding it compressed and I pulled the bag off of the mattress like removing an envelope from outside of a letter.The first thing I noticed was how quickly the mattress decompressed. Our mattress 9 years ago took about 48 hours to visibly decompress, whereas with this mattress, within a matter of a couple seconds the mattress expanded from about 6-7 inches tall to 10 inches. I laid down on it felt completely decompressed and fluffy soft. I read in the instruction booklet that one side of the mattress was firmer than then other so I decided to video the difference between each side. I had my 6 year old daughter walk and jump around on the mattress with a glass of water sitting in the middle, first with the soft side up, then with the firmer side up. You could see in the videos that the soft side transfers a good bit of motion just walking around on the mattress and the firmer side requires her to jump to really see the water move (well you could see if Amazon allowed me to upload more than one video, but it doesn't so I just uploaded the firm side my in-laws decided to sleep on).How does that translate to laying on the bed, well my in-laws decided to go with the firm side because they were concerned that too soft a mattress might cause back issues. After 3 nights (the amount of time the instructions say to let the bed expand) it is the best night sleep they've had in years and they just keep thanking us for the wonderful mattress. Though, they have not noticed a difference with it from the 1st to the 3rd night, so I'm not sure if it expanded much at all. They see no need to try the softer side of the mattress, they are so pleased with it so far.Pros: Good price, easy to set up, decompresses quickly, pillowy soft and cool, plus an amusing little cartoonCons: Like all memory foam mattresses it, has the faintest foam odor, but after putting sheets on it I honestly couldn't smell it anymore, and the instructions say the faint smell dissipates quickly.

A couple years ago we got a great deal on a little travel trailer, but we haven't really used because the mattress in it is so incredibly uncomfortable... who wants to "get away" when you end up tossing and turning and getting no rest and having massive back aches while on “vacation”? We had spent THOUSANDS for our king mattress but we couldn't spend that kind of money on a mattress for the trailer. Then a friend told us to check this one out on Amazon.We were pretty skeptical but we really want to use the trailer, instead of just looking at it sitting next to the house, so we ordered and two days later FedEx dropped the box on the front porch. The box is pretty heavy but easy enough to move around with a foldable hand truck we have.Inside the box, the mattress is rolled up and vacuum-packed and comes with instructions and a special tool to get the thick plastic cut open without damaging the mattress. It's a good idea to unroll the mattress on the bed platform where you will be using it. It's just easier to handle that way. We don't know exactly how long it took for the mattress to fully decompress since we unwrapped it and then left it in the trailer overnight.When we went in and checked on it the next day, late morning, it was all fluffed up and ready to use! At that point, we took some time to check out the quality of the mattress and we are very impressed with what seems to be pretty high-end materials and workmanship.Then came the real test... we crashed on the mattress for awhile. Wow! A huge upgrade from the flimsy old mattress that was in the trailer when we got it! We went ahead and took nice long nap and really enjoyed it! We cannot believe how great this mattress is for the price.One of the really cool things about this mattress is that you can choose to have the firm side up OR the soft side up. We decided to put the softer side up and, like I said, we really enjoyed the nap! It just seemed to cradle us nicely, but it wasn't TOO soft which can sometimes cause back problems.Now that we have a decent mattress, we are so excited to plan a longer trip with our trailer!I'll add to this review after we have had a chance to sleep on this mattress for a few nights, but I'm very confident that we are going to be loving it! We will be adding more pics too (having some technical issues right now with the camera).Also, a couple nice touches that were unexpected in the box… a little booklet with a cute story and what can be used as a sleep journal. All in all, a really great value! We are really happy we got this!

Very great product and i also got the great deal.. If it is available again with the same price i will buy for my other room too..

I wanted to make sure i waited a decent amount of time before reviewing this mattress. I purchased this in June of 2021, and for the first three months i had the worst sleeps of my life . I tried rotating, and flipping on multiple occasions, but it never got any better. I added TWO memory foam toppers and a feather bed, and it made the mattress tolerable but it is still easily by far the most uncomfortable bed i have ever slept on. save your self the trouble, because returning a mattress is a nightmare!!!!

First time for a foam mattress. i love it. A great mattress at a great price

I purchased this mattress on the recommendation of a friend. I purchased a twin for my Son. Unfortunately the mattress was just over an inch wider and longer than described in the specifications and therefor didn't fit the bedframe we have. Amazon was very helpful in working through a return plan.
