I absolutely love this mattress. I am a side sleeper and so are the two guests that have slept on it. It is definitely a firm type of plush that your body melts into. I have been able to get quality sleep and have missed my alarm quite a few times. The height of the mattress is perfect for the platform bed it sits on. The couple of guests I’ve had over that have sat on it and/or laid down have also said it’s the perfect mix for a good nights rest. I’ve been asked several times where I purchased it so they can experience the same type of luxury in their homes. If you’re on the fence, just get it! You won’t regret it.
