Firm, but doesn't cause discomfort. It is PERFECT for me. 5'5", 135 lbs, 34 yrs, female. I've never had a more comfortable bed than this. Only downside was I had to air it out for two months to get rid of that chemical smell, but I am VERY sensitive to smells. It's great now after four months of use. Contrary to popular belief, it is very supportive of activities other than sleeping. Great bed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my bed about a month ago, and after a bit of an adjustment period. We are sleeping very comfortably. I suffer from chronic back problems and my old bed definitely exacerbated the problem. I would often have to sleep in the guest bedroom for a better nights rest. But now I sleep much better, and I am considering upgrading my guestroom bed to a Tempurpedic too.

We purchased a King Tempur-ProAdapt in firm. After seven months, we wish we could undo this purchase. Our previous two mattresses were both firm, traditional independent coil. This would be our first memory foam mattress. Neither my wife nor I sleep consistently well on the Tempur-Pedic. This mattress chases you off it - I literally find myself getting out of bed in the morning because I can no longer stand the discomfort my body is feeling, specifically, pain through my pelvis and hip region as well as sore shoulders and numb arms. The hip and pelvis pain is with me continually and the sad part is I have learned to live with it. Recently, a second seven day vacation away from our Tempur-Pedic, I realized my hip/pelvis and shoulders stop hurting within a day or two. I spoke with Tempur-Pedic, but their response was to keep the room cool and to consider purchasing their mattress topper which would *maybe* help soften things up. I never stated this mattress is too firm, there is more to it than that. This mattress brought pain my mid-40's body has never felt. Read reviews and if you're having problems early on, react immediately, we're stuck with this thing now and we'll have to absorb a second mattress purchase in under a year. They claim their customer service is so great, why not try to help someone and send them a mattress topper after they just spent thousands on your product and are now afraid to use it.

This is our second Tempur-Pedic Mattress and the improvements to this new model are great. The new mattress is even more supportive than our older one, preventing any back pain. If you like a firm mattress this mattress is for you. The only draw back is the thing is darn heavy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a Tempur Pedic Pro Adapt back in February. I absolutely love this mattress. I have a herniated disc in my back and my old mattress of 22 years left me feeling like it was hit by a Mack truck when I woke up in the mornings, if I slept at all. I bought and adjustable bed base also and it was the best decision I made in years. From day one my back stopped hurting when I slept and I could feel the pressure being relieved from my spine. Sometimes when I get home from work I lay down for and hour just so my back will fill better, I never did this before I bought this mattress. I can sleep all night without pain for the first time in years. LOVE this Mattress

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As mentioned in the other reviews, if you want something that is in the medium side, you have to buy the soft version. It will feel a bit firm when new but will eventually break in. With the Tempurpedic protector, I don't fee the cooling properties much. In warm nights, I wake up sweating and had to change my shirt a couple of times in several occurrences. I am not overweight or have health conditions. Just saying. Overall a great purchase. You will appreciate it more when sleeping elsewhere for a couple of days, and coming home to your Tempurpedic! Don't settle for less.

I had a first generation temper-pedic and thought it was time to get a new bed (was I ever wrong). It was quite costly when they first came out but I got one. Anyway I bought a Serta and it was way to soft for me, hurt my back. Sent it back and got a hybrid temper-pedic, and "it" is a little to soft for me, however it would be to costly to trade this one in and get a firmer tempur. So although it's an improvement to the serta, that isn't saying much.

I have lost so much sleep trying to adjust to this bed as a side sleeper. It makes me feel stuck in place in the shoulder area and I have been tossing every night and waking with numbness and tingling in my hands. It feels comfortable if I lay on my stomach or back but I am a side sleeper. I thought it would help my shoulder and hip pain but it has not worked for me. It does not align my body, it makes me feel like my head is higher than my shoulders. I called after having it for a week and not sleeping and was told I had to follow the company policy and keep it for 30 days before making a return. I'm in week three now and have not had one restful night.

My husband refused to get a new bed for over 5 yrs - FINALLY convinced him to get one & he has never slept better. His back is no longer bothering him like it use to & his sleep apnea is not nearly as bad! This is the second Tempur-pedic bed I have owned & as another reviewer stated, they only get better with time!

After my husband fell and fractured his pelvis our current mattress was too soft. Our sales person recommended the firm Pro-Adapt and it was amazing. SOLD! We also purchased the adjustable base for the mattress which we highly recommend. The first night with the mattress and base we slept 9 hours! The base has done wonders to keep my husband from snoring.
