Nice mattress
I took a long time looking for a memory foam mattress that didn't cost as much as a new car. I took a chance on this one due to the reviews and the price. It arrived on Tuesday in a rather large and heavy box. I live alone so I had to manhandle this beast by myself. Got it our of the box to discover it was wrapped up like a sausage in a casing. This thing is heavy, better to have 2 people handle it although I managed on my own. I used scissors to start cutting the casing and then simply ripped it apart to avoid cutting the mattress. Once out of the casing it began to "reinflate" itself and I hoisted the front of it onto the new frame. It slid onto the frame pretty easy and I slipped the other plastic wrap from the mattress and removed the silica gel packets. The mattress did not smell whatsoever and was fully "inflated" after a few minutes. I still let it sit for 24 hours and slept on it on Wednesday night. It's takes a little getting used to especially if you roll over a few times during the night. There is little "bounce" when I flop over. I am 6' 1 and 340 lbs and it supports me well. I slept pretty good the first night and a little better the second night. It's quiet except for a little creak in the frame when I roll over. My beagle loves it! He used to get up 3-4 times a night and has slept straight thru these past 2 nights so that in itself is a victory. I would recommend this mattress to anyone that is looking for a memory foam mattress and does not want to pay the ridiculously high prices of the name brands.
Overall an amazing matress
My only complaint was the smell when it arrived, it took about 6 hours with windows open to get it gone. I understand they all smell some, but my last two only took about 3 hours. No big deal there. Overall this bed is GREAT. It is super thick so I don't feel like I hit the ground, very soft yet firm at the same time. I can sleep mostly n my side without my shoulders hurting too much now. The cooling effect is MEH at best, I did not think it kept me cool, but it also was not inferno on a mattress so I assume it is working. Over all a great buy, super cheap price, and so far the best memory foam I have owned.
Why did I wait so long?
We had considered purchasing this mattress for nearly a year, but was terrified to buy a mattress we had never been able to try out. Well after reviewing the return policy, I decided to go ahead. Well we are so glad we did. The first few nights took some getting use to. We went from having a traditional mattress to the memory foam and I think an adjustment period is standard. It wasn't that it was not a good night sleep, just different. Per other reviews, the box it comes delivered in does look like it has been through a war zone, but the mattress is completely fine. Don't let this worry you! Also, one other review said this mattress was very hot and they felt like they were on fire? Well we have not had this experience at all!!! My husband normally has a problem with night sweats or just simply getting very overheated when he sleeps and he thinks it has actually been better since we got this bed. I wouldn't let that sway your decision.
Final a good night's sleep!
I was waking with aches and pains in all my joints. I thought I was just getting old...but here, it was mattress that was old! I was shopping for a cool gel memory foam mattress but was sticker shocked when I saw the prices. I came across the Night Therapy Elite 13" and saw the price and thought it would be good to try. LOVE IT! So comfy and I wake up pain free!
Initially had buyers remorse. Larger than the bed frame I was using for my Previous Queen size mattress. It is firmer than the pillowtop spring I was using. I toss & turn less, and get a better nights sleep now. This is a positive upgrade. I no longer have buyers remorse.
Incredible Comfort, Great Value
We should have taped the whole process of getting the mattress upstairs and into the bedroom. Then the hilarious part of removing the wrap around the mattress. As soon as we started to open the plastic the mattress started to expand and my husband was trying to rip off the wrap as fast as possible. The mattress expands quickly! There really wasn't much of an odor but just to be on the safe side we turned on the air purifier and closed the bedroom door for the night. We slept downstairs. The next day I couldn't detect any odor and I have all kinds of migraine triggers, no problems what so ever. Slept on the new mattress the night after we received it. Husband and I both slept really well. I would say that it took us less that a week to completely adjust to the memory foam mattress as opposed to our old traditional mattress. I had a tendency to sleep really close to the edge of the mattress and I don't do that any more as the mattress really gives if you are next to the edge. It's hard to explain because the mattress overall has a LOT MORE SUPPORT than a traditional mattress; just don't expect that firmness at the edges. I have a lot of hip pain when I lie down. I won't say that this new mattress has allowed me to sleep pain free but I do sleep better and feel much better when I get up. My husband is really liking the new mattress and he really did not want a memory foam mattress! Here are a couple more items of interest if you have never slept on memory foam. It does sleep warmer but not hot! We got our new mattress in the middle of the summer and have no complaints. We live in Maine (yes, it does get hot here) and the winters are COLD so we used a mattress warmer on the traditional mattress. You can't use one with this type of mattress. As far as I can tell the memory foam seems to take any heat from your body and send it back to your body to keep you warm. Yet it doesn't make you hot. Regular mattress pads are not recommended as far as the "experts" say. There was an article that I read about some guy doing a study to find the best mattress pad to use with memory foam mattresses and he came up with two brands. One is next to impossible to find. The other is carried by quite a few places but you have to shop around for the best price. The mattress pad is called Protect a Bed and you would not know you were sleeping on anything extra. It is made so that it does not mess with the features of a memory foam mattress. I did a lot of research on memory foam mattresses. It took me several days and a lot of reading to decide this was the right mattress for us. This is an awesome value.
Excellent Bed!!
My husband and I bought this bed approximately 15 days ago....REALLY wish we had purchased it sooner. Bed came early was very easy to unpack and place on our frame. It is a little unwieldy for a couple that is 60+ but we managed. WE LOVE IT. I would definitely recommend this bed to anyone accustomed to a foam mattress. We slept on a foam mattress for 20+ years then bought a traditional mattress, big mistake, we both got back aches. We only had the traditional mattress for a couple of years but that was more than enough! We are very happy we purchased this mattress and would recommend this product highly!!
Excellent Value for Money with 1 downside
I have been using this mattress for the past 2 weeks now, and just love the comfort and cooling gel effect, however, there is one downside (no pun intended) if you are sleeping on the edge of the bed (especially when my 5-year old wakes up in the night and comes over) the memory foam creates a slope at the edge, and if you are not too careful, you may just fall off! I guess that's the problem with any memory foam bed. Other than this, bed is excellent
Not for us!
this mattress was way to soft for us. you sink in and can't move. plus hotter than I like. we have other memory foam mattresses that we bought from sams and love, just not this one. sending it back and ordered a different one. so far sams has been great with the return. keeping my fingers crossed.
The Night Therapy Elite 13" King IS King!
I initially wavered a bit about purchasing this mattress and all the while my husband and I were dealing with our 16 yo Queen pillow top mattress. Waking up with body aches, stiffness isn't a pretty thing when both of us are still not as old as we felt upon rolling out of bed until we could sit up. Not because of the mattress but rather how the mattress made us feel every morning. He told me just to order it and we'll see where it takes us. The MyGel Prestige has been a wonderful mattress. Both of us sleep more soundly; thrash less, don't feel each other turning over; and wake up feeling like we got a good night's sleep. No more rolling out of bed. The minute my feet hit the floor, I'm not struggling to wake up my lower back so I can walk. My husband and I haven't had any problems in the month that we've owned it, and we are surprised by the fact that we love it without having first tried or tested it. It really is a perfect fit. Regarding the packaging odor: Not too strong after unpacking. We kept a fan in the room to circulate the air. The first night was not bad. Got better over the course of 2 to 3 days until we didn't even notice that we couldn't smell it anymore. At the end of the day, if you are extremely sensitive to odors, then you might consider letting it air long enough to allow odor to dissipate before you sleep on it. It will be worth the wait instead of saying you don't like it because of the smell. The smell is gone baby and I'm digging my new bed! I would recommend the bed (I have already), and I would buy another of this type/brand without hesitation. If you are thinking about it, don't. Just DO IT. Worse case scenario... you return it. Best case scenario... you'll feel like you've gone to heaven for the night. ;)
