Customer reviews for Zinus Night Therapy 13" Medium-Plush Gel-Infused Memory Foam Mattress forToo Soft - Too Hot
The product description says "provides you with coolness and ultimate support" Well it's not cool and it doesn't provide support. If fact, if you get too close to the edge of the bed you will slide right out. There is absolutely zero edge support. We tried many Tempur-Pedic mattresses at the local Mattress Firm store. This mattress is as soft as the softest Tempur-Pedica and not nearly as cool. The Tempur-Pedica actually feels cool when you lay on it. Guess you get what you pay for. Thankfully Sam's has a good return policy, as this one is going back.
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
Too soft
Purchased this mattress two weeks ago and came to the conclusion that it didn't have enough support. My wife and I would sink together in the middle. If you were anywhere near the edge, it felt like you were going to fall off. It might suffice for lighter people; I am 225# and my wife 120#. The one positive thing was returning it at a club; no hassles. We decided to go with the Serta Trump Select 12" memory foam mattress. It's layers are 1" cooling gel, 2" memory and 9" high density support. We were able to try it in the store. I am much happier with the Serta. More support, no sinking and no falling off the edge.
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.
No longer toss and turn
Bought the bed based on the reviews here. I had read so many reviews on high-priced big brand name mattresses, both good and bad, that I did not want to risk a lot of money on a foam mattress that I wouldn't be able to return. Some stores require you to exchange their mattress (probably only option is a more expensive one) and some stores here in Denver had no return or exchange policy. With Sam's return policy, I felt there was no risk. Good decision. I got a high quality mattress and an excellent price and I could have returned it if I didn't like it. Fortunately I really like it. It is firm but the top feels cushy when you lay on it. I was really suprised that it feels so firm but I fall asleep faster and no longer do I toss and turn all night. I find sometimes when I wake up that I am in the same position I went to sleep in. Mattress has a nice covering and I am pleased with the quality. Got the box springs at Sam's too, so convenient that they're in stock and you can get it when you want. Bed was delivered to my house, I'm an older lady and got it in the door myself and had a friend help me get it upstairs. Good buy! Saved me a lot of money over beds I was looking at in the stores!
Comfortable but much firmer than expected.
Bed arrived in large box that barely fit thru the doorway. Thankfully we laid it next to the bedframe to open because the mattress has no upholstered handles and is very difficult to move once out of the wrapping. Slept on it that night and awoke with backaches next morning due to the firmness of this mattress. Each night thereafter got better, and now two weeks later we are very satisfied and are sleeping much better than with our old mattress. Never noticed any odor that some refer to. Only disappointment is that the fabric cover is not very attractive with the blue contrasting stripe around the sides. Would've gladly paid more for upholstery upgrade (esp. if with handles!). And could have rated mattress 5 star.
Too hot for me
I had high hopes for this mattress, based on reviews on the site and from family. I gave it 3 stars for ease of ordering, the quick delivery, and customer service from the people I have talked to since ordering. The first night I woke up feeling like I was on a bed of coals. I thought maybe it was me, so kept the house cold and the second night it was the same way. Every night I sleep on this bed it feels like the burning bed. So frustrating, because it is very comfortable. I have a thick mattress pad on top and it has only slightly alleviated the problem. I just can't take the heat anymore. I know it's not night sweats, because I don't wake up in a sweat, just extremely hot, like I'm laying on a heating pad set too high.
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.
I have been very pleased with my purchase!!
It has been a little over a month since I have been sleeping on the Night Therapy Elite 13" MyGel. I have been very pleased with the new matress I was actually going to purchase one of the big name brand matresses but started doing a little research and ran across this one couldn't be more satisfied. I was having some serious back issues from our old spring matress which we had paid around 2,000 dollars that only held up for about 5yrs. very dissapointed in it. Since I have been sleeping on the new matress my back pain is about 95% gone, I am feeling better and more rested due to the deeper sleep I am getting matress is firm but not very firm my wife is also getting better sleep. As every one else mentioned there is a slight smell when you first unpackage but that goes away after about 3-4 days. The only reaseon I did not give it 5 stars is because I want to see what kind of longevity the matress will hold up to but other than that you can't beat this matress for this price and comfort if your not satisfied you can always return it to SAMS!!
wish I had not waited so long to buy
although we have only had a few weeks, so far its great except that perimeter of top layer of foam needs some more firmness. When you try to sit on the bed you tend to slide off due to the large edge radius created, especially if your feet arent firmly planted on the floor. Other than that great sleeping.
