Customer reviews for Zinus Night Therapy 13" Medium-Plush Gel-Infused Memory Foam Mattress forGreat new mattress!
I needed to replace an innerspring mattress recently, and wanted something that would feel cooler in summer. I ordered this memory foam product without knowing anything else about it, but have been very happy. I do not feel any pressure points and it does recover shape instantly. The only slightly weird thing is that sitting on the edge of the bed it feels like it is folding up on the sides. Minor, would buy it again.
I would buy again
I was very skeptical in the purchase of this type of bed. I researched beds for about a year with this one always in the mix. I bought gel pillows 1st and having liked how they worked I went for the bed. I let it expand for three days and I slept better the 1st night. My wife loves it since she floats on top , since I am a heavy guy I do settle in. It is not a problem and its just different. Our old mattress was an air mattress and we had it blown up to the max. My research told me to go with 6lb foam but this is a good compromise.
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.
Terrible Mattress
What inspired me to buy this mattress were the raving reviews this one has got and that every single person who reviewed the mattress unamimously agreed that it is a firm mattress (a bit too firm for some !!!).. But to my horror the one that I received was way too soft/plush.. It wasn't one bit firm. Me (200 lb)and my wife (125 lb) sank in it all the time. We could not roll in the bed.. It was a pain to get in and out of the bed. This product is no where near what it is advertised to be. Returned it in a club. No hassles there.
Comfortable; comparable quality
We've had this mattress for a few weeks now and it's still comfortable. It does have a faint scent - so I'd suggest letting it air out for a bit. It also takes two (normal-sized) people to carry the box, due to its bulky size. The bed expanded in minutes - I'd suggest putting it on your box spring, then cut the plastic. Anyhow, the bed was very comfortable. I'm mainly a belly/side sleeper and I no longer have pinch points in my arms. I'm not much of a back sleeper because of the pain inner springs caused - but with this bed I was able to lay on my back for quite a while and never had any pain! This bed is truly comparable (if not better) than the Tempur beds. This bed does hold in some heat, especially if you have someone else sleeping in it with you... but it's not nearly as bad as other foam beds. As for my size, I'm 170 and I don't sink in too much. The sides will give away to you so you can't sleep right on the side... but this should be obvious since the entire bed is foam. Someone previously pointed out that this mattress is not firm. I would somewhat disagree - but it really depends on how big you are. If you're normal size/weight - it will be moderately firm at first. If you're bigger, it probably won't be as firm as an innerspring. All-in-all, I would recommend (and already have) this mattress. It's also worth taking the risk to buy it online - if you don't like it, you can always take it back to your local Sam's club or call them to possibly have it picked up!
Best mattress ever!
I bought this mattress a few months ago with the folding box spring package. I initially purchased for my guest room, but I eventually swapped it for the latex mattress in my room. This is the best mattress I have ever slept on. It's firm, but soft and cozy. It's much cooler that a memory foam and it retains it's shape extemely well. I have an adjustable bed frame in my room and it's shape and comfort is perfect going up and down. I am just amazed at what a bargain this is and the quality is great. I will say that it did have the slight odor mentioned in some of the other reviews, but that did go away within a relatively short period of time and now is just fine. I'm more than pleased with this purchase.
Great Mattress at a great price!
Ordering was easy and the mattress was delivered quickly. Unpacked the mattress and let it set for 12 hours before placing it on bed frame. The firmness was ideal for me and the gel layer helps to keep you from overheating during the night. This combo leads to more comfort and less tossing and turning.
Big Guy, Bad Back, Great Mattress
I'm 6' 320lbs with chronic back problems, including one surgery. This mattress has been great in reducing my back pain. I've had it for about a month now, and after two days of sleeping on it felt better than I have in years. My only complaint is how deep I sink into it. I'm pretty agile so it's not a problem at all, but for a large person with mobility issues it could definitely be a draw back. My wife is 100lbs and doesn't have any sink problems. For the price this mattress is excellent. I do have concerns about it's long term "bounce back" potential because of the sinking, but the comfort and price are worth it even if it only lasts a couple years.
Too Soft
The mattress is soft and comfortable, but is too soft for me. You sink into the mattress which makes it very confining to me. I'm 160 pounds. Not easy to roll from side to side. It made me feel like I was in a straight jacket. Not easy to sit up from lying position. To get out of bed, it was easier to roll to the side and get out. This mattress got a lot of good reviews but these reviewers must really like really soft mattresses. Not all foam mattresses are the same. I returned this one (major pain) and got a 12" thick Serta which is a lot firmer but still contours to your body just enough.
Enjoying our Purchase
My husband and I looked at more expensive memory foam mattresses and finally chose to purchase this one. We are enjoying the mattress. It sleeps well and I really like the fact that I can't tell if my husband gets up from the bed. So far, it seems to be a good value and we are very satisfied.
